The city, thus have become congested.Hence there is huge settlement problem in the city, increasing the number of squatters, the result of which is that the city is now progressing from horizontal to vertical i.e. the rise in the culture of high rise apartments and housing. The development of housing project, high rise apartment has helped to solve the housing problems of the urban area to some extent. But since the construction of such high risers and apartment are not planned and is haphazard, environment problems have been evident.
