Inform(alis)ing Cyberabad: Interrogating Urbanisation in Hyderabad through a Decade of Change in Aditya Nagar, Hafeezpet - Economic and Political Weekly 2025 - 50-58

The processes described as ‘“Informality from Above” and “Informality from Below” have been co-constitutive of the development of Cyberabad, and that while the former is most visible, the latter has been integral to the process of urbanisation. Aditya Nagar represents a pre-existing informality, a non-notified slum situated off an arterial road, that has expanded to provide housing, labour, and various other services to the businesses and residents of high-end tower blocks and gated communities of Cyberabad.
