British media: Indian big cities face many challenges, such as air pollution, damaged roads, and garbage accumulation. Despite the government's huge investment in infrastructure upgrades, the livability of cities remains low.

Taking Mumbai as an example, it once dreamed of becoming "Shanghai of India," but failed to realize this due to governance issues. The Indian urban governance model is weak, with local governments having limited power, making it difficult to effectively solve urban problems. In contrast, China can promote urban planning and infrastructure construction.

Indian urban data is missing, and the provisions in the constitutional amendment regarding urban governance have not been fully implemented, leading to difficulties in solving urban problems.
