Abstract: Aizawl’s ecosystem and geography have been drastically transformed by urban growth causing a variety of ecological and socioeconomic problems. This study focuses at the development patterns and impacts of Aizawl’s urban growth with an additional focus on how it affects waste management, deforestation, the condition of the air and water and use of land. Unsupervised development in cities has increased environmental vulnerability by causing forest loss, soil erosion and rising pollution levels according to the research. In order to lessen these effects, the study also looks at sustainable urban development practices and legislative efforts. In order to achieve balanced and sustainable urban expansion in Aizawl, the study highlights the significance of coordinated urban management and community involvement.
