New Delhi, Nov 11 (IBNS): Expressing concern over the adverse impacts of unprecedented atmospheric pollution in Delhi over the last few days, Rao Inderjit Singh, Minister of State for Urban Development and Housing & Urban Poverty has stressed that “Delhi should be taken as a serious warning to the future of urban India and all concerned should wake up in time not to meet the same fate”.

He spoke in the Valedictory session of the four day ‘Urban Mobility India Conference and Expo’ that concluded in Gandhinagar, Gujarat on Friday.

Rao Inderjit Singh said that “Aspirational India does not have the luxury of time and needs to quickly fix the problems in urban areas to enable country’s transformation to realise its potential.

Urban mobility decides how our cities will grow and thrive as effective engines of economic growth”.

He said that during the four day Conference all stakeholders including policy makers and officials from State and city governments including Mayors and Municipal Councilors, experts, academia, students and others intensely deliberated on various aspects of urban mobility challenges and have come out with common positions on various concerns, which would serve as inputs for further policy, planning and implementation initiatives.
