Recently IIT-Mumbai’s civil engineering department rated 14 major cities, in which it put Ahmedabad on the eighth rank after considering 29 QoL variables.
Recently IIT-Mumbai’s civil engineering department rated 14 major cities, in which it put Ahmedabad on the eighth rank after considering 29 QoL variables.
The WHO defines Quality of Life (QoL) of a city as “An individual’s perception of their position in life in the framework of culture and value system in which they live and in relation to their objectives, expectations, standards, and concerns”.
Any city worth it`s salt will aspire to become a pivot of economic growth, satisfactory basic amenities, safe and secure liveable environment, and well-being of the society. Optimum use of land and infrastructure provides the much-needed framework for a city’s smooth functioning.
Greater Mumbai has the highest QoL score, whereas Patna has the lowest QoL score among the 14 cities. Mumbai is followed by Delhi, Kolkata, and Chennai in the rank.
Indore, Jaipur, Lucknow, and Bhopal are other cities at the bottom and have comparable QoL scores. The difference between the QoL score of Greater Mumbai and Delhi is marginal, whereas Patna (city with the lowest QoL score) has a considerable difference with the second-lowest QoL city Indore, claims the research by Gopal Patil and Gajanand Sharma of IIT-Mumbai.
The cities were ranked on seven major indices The seven components resulted in seven indices, basic amenities index, economic development index, safety, and security index, transportation, access index, environmental impact index, infrastructure development index, and gender role index.
Some striking disparity was realised in Ahmedabad ranking the lowest among 14 cities for citizens availing government health facilities which was 44 per 10,000 population, the highest was Delhi while in 821 people among 10K citizens availed government health facilities. The silver lining, however, is that in terms of unemployment, Ahmedabad ranks the least, just 3 citizens among 1,000 are unemployed and best in the country, while the worst happens to be Lucknow with 85 people among 1,000 being unemployed.
