Sustainability is fulfilling the needs of present generations without compromising the needs of future generations. Urban social sustainability is one of the important aspects of neighborhoods. Out of the three pillars of sustainability, the social aspect has been neglected and the main focus has been on the two other pillars of environmental and economic aspects. Traditional Indian urban neighbourhoods are socially active and intrusive communities, are losing their qualities due to Western influences. In toto copying of the western concepts of neighborhood planning has eroded the traditional values of Indian neighborhoods. The interactions between people and their surroundings strengthen community building and social bonding.
