Youth City Satellite Town, East Agra Agra Development Authority plans to develop a 1851 acres of land that lies at the juncture of Yamuna and eastern corridor of Agra Inner Ring Road. Around 12 kms from Taj city center, the site enjoys direct connectivity through the proposed ring road and opens up a new access to Taj. These new developments are envisioned as a new urban center; decentralizing the urban nucleus from essentially a heritage centric core to a new zone focusing on otherwise weaker sectors like professional education, employment, entertainment, art, craft and skill development. The new city expansion must revolve around consolidating Agra with a self sustaining landuse.

It is about time to spread awareness on the declining power of the river to its people as the people are the only hope of her rejuvenation.
With an agenda of investigation, exploration and research based learning, 300 students and 28 faculties of Amity School of Architecture and Planning spread to various arms of river Ganga. Rising from the crown of Himalayas making its way towards the east and down south through the Gangetic plains into the Bay of Bengal.The explicity of our lifeline was not only appreciated by us but also by our foreign invaders from the West. Through the thick and thin, the river served to her maximum potential and continues to do so. Today, cities have challenged Ganga to withstand unbearable tasks which impacts the effective relationship of river and the city.
