Consequences of inadequate attention to environment issues can be seen through intense rainfall in Chennai and Mumbai, air quality issues of Delhi, droughts in Maharashtra, floods of Bihar and Orissa and many more. The author underlines the fact that environmental issues like air, water, noise are being discussed in master plans in the chapter on “environment” while the other chapters address industry, trade and commerce and physical and social infrastructure, etc., which also has great bearing on environment. Therefore, these chapters also need to address environmental issues. With reference to “Urban flooding” the author mentions that the same is discussed in the Master Plan in the Chapter “Drainage” and suggests to discuss and deliberate the same in the separate Chapter in detail at least for the towns which are ceased with frequent urban flooding.
