Kshitij Batra, Junior Fellow at IDFC Institute, shared insights at a roundtable organised by CLEAR/J-PAL South Asia at IFMR, on "Data-driven decision making: Using administrative data to make decisions”. He discussed his work on mapping India's urbanisation using geospatial data.

Speaking at the event, he stated "53 million people in India are living in urban-like settlements without having the government classifying them as urban, that is greater than or equal to the population of South Korea"
