The study is broadly concerned with understanding the development of the industrial hub in the Gurgaon and its impact on the immediate neighborhood. Studies have revealed that with the increase of industrial development the growth pattern changes rapidly, not only the growth of the urban area but the overall economy shifts from more agrarian to non-agrarian, with the change in the occupational pattern of the people, i.e. Tertiarization. This triggers the in- migrations from the rural areas to core urban area in search of the better job opportunities and increased standards of living, which in turn gives way to unplanned growth of the urban fringe. So it becomes increasing necessary for the government institution and policy level intervention to provide an overall socio-economical growth along with rapid industrial growth.
