dc.description.abstractExclusionary policies have polarized the urban poor and the informal sector. Lack of basic services makes access to water supply and affordable electricity supply, housing for squatters, and regularization of unauthorized colonies, important points of contestation in recent elections. This report outlines urban development and governance in Delhi, where 16 million people live and work. Most planned development is unaffordable for low-income households. The enclave or ghetto phenomenon exists both among the privileged and underprivileged population groups, for example the gated housing colonies of rich families, co-operative group housing societies, and poor migrants’ hutment clusters.en
