English Abstract: Urbanization is expected to accelerate in India in light of the rapid economic growth that has proceeded in recent years. The urban population in India is estimated to grow more than twofold by the year 2050. As urbanization progresses due to the urbanization policies carried out by the Indian government, the cities are expanding their power consumption, water supply, public transportation, communication, waste disposal, and residential convenience centers, as well as expanding their consumption markets. Against this backdrop, this research examines the process of urbanization in India and its urbanization policy, going on to analyze the relationship between urbanization and economic growth. Then this study looks into the changes in consumption and energy demand and the urban infrastructure investment that accompanies urbanization. Based on these analyses, this research suggests political directions and tasks in the urban development cooperation between Korea and India.
