| Abstract: | Gautam Buddha Nagar is emerging as one of the fastest-growing urban-industrial regions in India, driven by its proximity to the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi and proactive industrial policies. Although this emergence has aided in the growth of infrastructure and the economy, it has also increased environmental stress. Using secondary spatial and environmental data, the current study assesses the feasibility of Gautam Buddha Nagar's rapid urban expansion by looking at its effects on the environment. The study is based on qualitative and quantitative analysis of secondary data from government publications, census records, published land use/land cover (LULC) maps, satellite-based studies conducted by national agencies, and previous academic research. Through a comparative analysis of LULC records found in master plan documents and peer-reviewed literature, trends in urban expansion are investigated. According to official records and published studies during the past 20 years, indices such as changes in groundwater levels, trends in air quality, and shifts in green cover are used to evaluate environmental consequences. According to the data, there has been a steady decrease in agricultural land and open green spaces, while there has been a significant increase in built-up areas. The region's groundwater resources are under significant strain due to rapid urban expansion, which has also worsened air quality and increased environmental vulnerability. The results imply that current environmental management systems are no longer able to keep up with the rate of urban expansion. The study concludes that without integrated planning and strengthened environmental governance, current urban expansion patterns in Gautam Buddha Nagar may become environmentally unsustainable. The paper emphasizes the need for evidence-based urban planning, resource conservation, and sustainable development strategies to balance economic growth with environmental resilience. |
