This paper examines social change in a suburban village in the National Capital Region of India, following rapid development as a result of globalization. The authors conducted household surveys in a village (“Village R”) of Noida, which is part of the National Capital Region, in 1997 and 2014. With the development of Noida, the state government acquired vast land tracts in the village, mostly in the early 2000s. While agriculture declined between 1997 and 2014, the number of workers in offices or factories in/near the cities increased; consequently, social relations based on agriculture almost completely collapsed. With their increasing incomes, more people began sending their children to private schools rather than government schools. The local social systems and values that the residents once shared became irrelevant. Furthermore, the village became externally surrounded by modern urban landscape, and multi-story houses steadily replaced the original rural houses and farmland in the village. However, village infrastructure has not improved much owing to the lack of administrative effort, which has resulted in the deterioration of the living environment, including drainage.“ Village R,” which can be considered an urban village, has remained underdeveloped and excluded from the urban planning of the megacity. Nevertheless, the village provides cheap accommodations for local university students and the local industrial workers. Thus, the urban village plays an important role in (re-) producing the labor force for more-developed urban areas.
