Question

Which is the satellite city of Delhi?
A) Gurugram
B) Noida
C) Both A and B
D) Panchkula

Answer 1

Hint: Smaller municipalities that are close to a big city that is the centre of a metropolitan region are known as satellite cities or satellite towns. Satellite cities may theoretically be self-contained settlements outside of their bigger metropolitan regions.

Complete answer:
Gurugram began as a satellite town of Delhi, but due to its great connectivity via the Delhi Metro and roads, it has grown into a premier metropolitan real estate destination. It now has a surrounding area. Noida, short for New Okhla Industrial Development Authority, is a planned city in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh's Gautam Budh Nagar district. It is a part of India's National Capital Region (NCR) and is a satellite city of Delhi.

Gurgaon, often known as Gurugram, is a city in Haryana, India. It's close to the Haryana-Delhi state line. It is a component of India's National Capital Region and one of Delhi's major satellite cities.

Noida is a planned city in the Gautam Buddh Nagar district of Uttar Pradesh, India. In 2015, the "Best City Awards" held by ABP News named Noida as the Best City in Uttar Pradesh and the Best City in Housing in India.

The correct option is ‘C’ i.e both A and B. Gurugram and Noida are the satellite city of Delhi.

Note: The goal of satellite cities is to achieve the ideal balance of people and resources in terms of environmentally sustainable growth. The goal is to provide cheap housing to a wide segment of the population. A fundamental need exists to transform satellite cities into smart cities.
