Pune urban Sprawl

Pune urban sprawl

To give you an image of the urban sprawl  in a country like India: here was mostly empty dry Deccan plateau 10 years ago . Now it’s part of the western outskirts of Pune with its appr. 4 million inhabitants. Many of the buildings are still in construction phase, some being leased at lower rates to people with a car as often there’s no shops available yet.
