India’s cities are becoming more polluted and unhealthy, according to a new survey published Monday showing growing concern about the impact of high economic growth on the environment.


The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) research group based in New Delhi questioned 4,039 people living in India’s six biggest cities about their perceptions, opinions and awareness of the environment and green issues over the last five years.

“Air quality in these six cities has become worse in the last five years or seen no change,” the survey said.

  • “Surface water quality seemed to have deteriorated in all cities apart from Mumbai (no change).
  • Five cities saw a fall in ground water availability (excluding Chennai) and the number of trees, birds and animals saw a decline in all six cities.”

The survey said respondents from Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi and Hyderabad claimed a worsening of waste management in their city, while respondents from Kolkata and Mumbai saw an improvement.
