The primary objective of this research is to explore the urbanisation process, urban planning strategies and how the various reclamation, restoration and heritage conservation exercises of natural and built components have shaped and modified the urban water bodies and the catchment ecology that are facing several challenges across the numerous metro cities of India.This research has offered a first detailed analysis of the early colonial draining of the urban water bodies followed by the evolving exercise of rejuvenation of extinct and surviving water bodies of Varanasi.I dedicated my research time to write the chapters of my dissertation this year. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation and with various travel restrictions I could not conduct my fieldwork in Varanasi, India to physically map the existing water bodies and also to examine the ongoing work of restoration and conservation. Based on the data and statistics collected in 2019 and during my previous fieldwork I wrote the dissertation.I also presented few chapters in the seminars to receive comments from other researchers. Additionally I also presented my findings and arguments in other national and international seminars to get the valuable inputs.

本研究的主要目的是探讨城市化进程、城市规划策略以及各种填海、自然和建筑组成部分的恢复和遗产保护工作塑造和改变了印度众多大都市面临的几个挑战的城市水体和集水生态。这项研究首次详细分析了城市早期殖民排水系统，水体其次是不断发展的运动复兴的灭绝和幸存的水体瓦拉纳西。我把我的研究时间写我的论文今年的章节。由于COVID-19疫情及各种旅行限制，我无法在印度瓦拉纳西进行实地考察，以实际绘制现有水体的地图，并检查正在进行的恢复和保护工作。根据2019年收集的数据和统计数据以及我之前的实地考察，我撰写了这篇论文。我还在研讨会上介绍了几个章节，以听取其他研究人员的意见。此外，我还在其他国家和国际研讨会上提出了我的研究结果和论点，以获得有价值的投入。
