Delhi is an agglomeration of historic cities, therefore, sustainable development of Delhi depends increasingly on the
strategic management of its urban heritage. While heritage management policies that govern the urban heritage of
Delhi are prone to a silo approach ofmanagement, the essential policy document, the Master Plan of Delhi, has the
potential to a holistic approach through integrative Planning. More so, the 17 SDGs, and specifically SDG Target 11.4
necessitates management of heritage by bringing in a paradigm shift within the larger Planning. In this light the
paper reviews the urban heritage management system of Delhi through the four Master Plans of Delhi. The paper
identifies that, urban heritage management in the MPDs needs to be understood not in isolation but as reflections of
emerging local trends and global heritage management developments of the times. The methodology followed here
is a systematic, comparativeand qualitative study of four MPDs.
