These days Urban Housing means high rised residential apartments. I individually do not like apartment culture, where the people are gathered like a herd and share less space, less lighting, less air, less water etc. In fact the apartments are like a farm of people, living in extreme awkward conditions. I individually believe that apartment like buildings are more suitable for offices than residential areas. Always residential areas be of open land, individual houses, good roads, air, lighting.

The rates have to be brought to a realistic level. At the current rates, even for someone in the upper middle class, it is not possible to buy a house and even if he buys, he has to put at stake everything because it would mean home loan EMI's for 30 years. This is someone in the upper middle class, just think about people below that who constitute 80% of the population.

Permission related regulation may add: All roof-top may be equipped with solar water heaters and solar energy panels, so that all household cooking and cleaning cost will be reduced drastically. Solar water heater is a highly efficient and cost effective tool which can reduce cooking gas consumption to a great extend and hot water cleaning will reduce not only detergent consumption cost but also effective germ control in an Eco-friendly way.
