The article looks at the challenges, capabilities and limitations of urban areas in India in dealing with mitigating climate change. It references discussions held at an Indian-German expert meeting in Bangalore in April 2015. Topics discussed include the state of climate governance at various levels, major actors in the country's national climate policy-making and the role of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in climate change mitigation.
