Note: The Annual Survey of India's City-Systems (ASICS) 2017 evaluates quality of governance in cities, covering 23 major cities in India across 20 states based on 89 questions.
*The ASICS scores are evaluated based on the four components of the 'City-Systems' framework - UPD: Urban Planning & Design; UCR: Urban Capacities & Resources; ELPR: Empowered & Legitimate Political Representation
and TAP: Transparency, Accountability & Participation.
Each city is given a score out of 10 for each of the components. Only the cities with a score of 5 or more in the ELPR category are included here.
