A massive beautification initiative is changing Jaipur as it gets ready to present the 25th IIFA Awards in March 2025. Although these initiatives seek to improve infrastructure and highlight Jaipur’s legacy, they have resulted in the forced displacement of roadside residents and street merchants. While relocated households fight with inadequate facilities and disturbed livelihoods, vendors suffer loss of money. Reintegration and reparation promised by authorities still inspire doubt. The debate emphasizes the importance of inclusive urban design that strikes a balance between development and social responsibility so making sure that global events do not compromise underprivileged areas.
