Government of India has launched new missions like Smart Cities Mission, Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT), Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, Historic City Development Augmentation Yojana (HRIDAY) and Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM). These missions are focused on the provision of core infrastructure services like water supply, sanitation and solid waste management, efficient urban transport, affordable housing for the poor, round the clock power supply, IT connectivity and e-governance. These missions have opened up new doors for participatory planning for enhancing diversity, livelihoods, connectivity and provide better education, healthcare, urban safety and services. This paper argues that success of this new paradigm of planning and urban governance needs local planning, legal, institutional and regulatory reforms.
