Résumé en anglais
The case of Hauz Khas Enclave precinct in New Delhi, that includes Siri fort and Kalu Saraiarea, provides a perfect context for a discussion on co-existence and integration of urban built heritage
and modern urbanisation. The study focuses on the urban development around these frozen-in-timemonuments that are isolated from the city and also around the living urban villages that are equally a part
of this built heritage.This paper will put forward the various layers of history in the precinct and the chronological growth
around them. The gradual transformation that can take place if and when diverse communities get
involved in the integration process is also analysed in detail. Hence, association of people with the urbanheritage is an important aspect of this research paper and it will discuss clues to the level of integration
possible between heritage and urbanisation.
