Recognising the importance of Indian urbanisation, disaggregating the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), targets and indicators for urban areas is necessary to enable localisation and assist in implementation. This document is an attempt to recognise the current status of sustainable development in India, using select indicators that are largely representative and practical to gather. It situates Indian states and localises metrics for their urban areas, in a national and regional context.
