Latest comment: 1 month ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The state government has declared Gorakhpur, as a metropolis on 22 November 2021. This is citied on a wikipage as well as under demographics, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorakhpur. Are there any parameters to be met before it can be added ? Thanks 139.71.200.15 (talk) 14:17, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Please move this to a draft as this list is not complete or Add new cities or reorganize it.

The list of metropolitan cities in this list is not exhaustive and there are many new ones to be added India's new metro cities are now more available in proportion to population According to the main qualification of this list, cities like Kochi Kozhikode from Kerala qualify for it.

Cities from Kerala qualify for this list : Kochi, Kozhikode, Thrissur, Malappuram and Thiruvananthapuram ~~ --Owner of magical cat 🐈 (talk) 12:08, 14 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

The article as of now lists the top x cities in descending order of population as per the last official census or other official sources available if there had been an expansion post the same. The list is not exhaustive and that is not a valid reason for deletion of the article itself. If there are other cities which are indeed classified as metropolitan cities, you are welcome to contribute provided that proper official sources are provided (or use 2011 population if no official source is available from a later date) and that all the cities across India are covered in the descending order of population as listed in the official census data available. It is technically incorrect and misleading to add select cities from a particular state to a ranked list. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 09:26, 14 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
