development planners since 1990s. It suggests changes in approaching the
human settlement issues in a balanced, integrated, participatory, resource
sensitive and democratic manner. It also suggests the need for evolving
action oriented strategic approaches to addressing human settlement
issues. With time, development planning approaches in India have also been
changing. With changed governance scenario in the country since early
1990s, the democratic institutions in both rural and urban areas have been
playing a key role in decision-making processes. Consequently, the role of
development planners would have to be suited to changing times. It also
calls for change in the role of regional planner who could appreciate
issues of both rural and urban areas in an integrated manner.
