About Us

As per Census 2011, Uttarakhand’s urban population stands at 30.5 lakh, with an urbanization rate of 30.2%, which is close to the national average of 31.2%. The Urban growth rate, averaging 4.0% annually, is significantly higher than the rural growth rate of 1.2%. The major urban centers in Uttarakhand include Dehradun (5.75 lakh), Haridwar (2.31 lakh), and industrial hubs.

Since the inception, the state has witnessed rapid urban growth, further intensified by the state’s numerous tourist destinations. This has led to substantial pressure on urban infrastructure, making sustainable urban planning a key priority. Also, despite the hilly terrain of Uttarakhand, urban development has evolved and adapted to address the challenges effectively.
