Urban Villager: Life in an Indian Satellite Town is a book on the plight of small towns of India that are victims of big city encroachment. Big cities like Delhi has been expanding radially thereby stretching its way into the rural areas of Uttar Pradesh and Harayana to form the NCR region. In this book the author portrays the life of a modern villager in a satellite town of India. The author uses Delhi as an example of big city encroachment and describes how due rapid urbanization and expansion Delhi has slowly but surely encroached upon its neighboring small towns. Greater Noida used to a suburb of New Delhi, which has now very much become a part of the main city. Noida has both billion dollar homes and modest houses without a proper sewage system which share the same pin code. The author draws similarity with urbanization on the outskirts of other big Indian cities like Mumbai, Bangalore and Kolkata. All over the country, the cities are slowly eating into the countryside.
