The post independence era in India brought in European masters to infuse new spirit in traditional but changing society awaiting new revival through a united country. Englishmen while working lately in India were guilty of neglecting the local traditions and not being able to revitalize the evolutionary trend for its upgradation. In their later efforts, English architects saw “the germs of a movement becoming observable, which suggest that a trend in the direction of reviving the styles of architecture indigenous to India is in contemplation, and it is hoped that some genius will arise who will combine the beauty and the spirit of the old national art with the methods and ideas of the new age.” But this was not the thinking of the new leadership of India at the time of independence. It was still necessary to look west for progress. And the masters invited to plan an Indian city and its ‘democratic’ institutions - to inspire the India of future. These masters did not believe in what English architects, after years of their experience in India started believing in. New masters planted ideas of modern movement, which were not acceptable to even the progressive westerners - the new expression - the alien one - in new material which was industrial - and an environment which did not induce any cohesion - were all untenable but in vague as it got patronage from those leaders who suddenly became benefactors of people at large and took the community at large as their subjects, as only the feudal lords would do. However, this was going to be the ‘universal’ vision of built environment and architecture of future for India.
