Mumbai4u: A new report by the UN, launched on Friday 11, 2014 projected that an additional
2.5 billion people would live in cities by 2050. At 21 million, Mumbai is already the world`s 4th
largest city after Tokyo (38m), Shanghai (23m) and Sao Paulo and Mexico (21 each).
The UN expects 37% of urban population growth to come from three countries- by 2050,
India is projected to add 404 million urban dwellers, China 292 million and Nigeria 212 million.
A McKinsey study projects, that, by 2030, Indian cities will generate around 70% of its GDP.
India doesn’t actually live in its villages- the 2001 census classified 68% of Indian as city dwellers.
Kind Regards!
