Text description provided by the architects. Atal Sarovar—a rejuvenated urban lake named after India's former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee—is a flagship project within Rajkot's Smart City initiative. Situated within a 930-acre greenfield precinct, the project transforms a low-lying natural depression into a multifunctional urban waterbody that integrates stormwater management, ecological regeneration, and vibrant public spaces. Conceived through the principles of water-sensitive urbanism, it repositions urban hydrology as a driver of sustainable design and inclusive city-making.
