Urban Planning of Mohenjo-Daro: A Way forward for Contemporary Sustainable Infrastructure

Ancient urban planning techniques from Mohenjo-Daro, a key city of the Indus Valley Civilization, offer valuable insights for modern sustainable infrastructure. This study reveals that Mohenjo-Daro's advanced architectural strategies can be adapted and revived with innovative approaches to address contemporary developmental challenges. The research employs archival documentation, expert interviews, and literature reviews to analyze historical urban planning practices. By integrating these ancient methods with modern innovations, the findings suggest a pathway for creating sustainable, resilient cities that align with current global emphasis on eco-friendly urban development.
