Mumbai offers highest quality of life, Chennai treats its women best: Study

孟买的生活质量最高，金奈对女性最友好

NEW DELHI: Now, IIT-Bombay researchers have come up with an urban quality of life index tailored to the reality of life in India. And, for the first time, they have factored in gender parity. Chennai, it turns out, is the most women-friendly and Patna the least.

印度理工学院孟买分校的研究人员提出了一种针对印度城市的生活质量指数。而且，第一次将性别平等因素考虑在内。结果发现，金奈对女性最友好，而巴特那最不友好。

Overall, Mumbai tops the list of 14, followed closely by Delhi, Kolkata and Chennai. But so important is the gender role index that quality of life rankings of six cities would have changed had it not been considered — Delhi, Jaipur and Indore would have been ranked higher, and Mumbai, Bhopal and Lucknow would have ceded their spots. Only Chennai, Kolkata and Mumbai surpass the average score for gender index, while Indore, Jaipur and Patna are way below average.

总体而言，孟买在14个城市中排名第一，紧随其后的是德里、加尔各答和金奈。性别角色指数如此重要，如果没有考虑这一点的话，六个城市的生活质量排名可能会发生变化——德里、斋普尔和印多尔的排名会更高，孟买、博帕尔和勒克瑙的排名会下降。只有金奈、加尔各答和孟买的性别指数超过了平均水平，而印多尔、斋浦尔和巴特那则远低于平均水平

“Women experience cities differently; meeting women’s needs becomes essential in promoting sustainable urban development,” the paper, in press to be published in Elsevier journal ‘Transport Policy’, said. The study found that Jaipur has the highest crime rate against women, Chennai has the lowest . The gap in literacy rate between men and women is the widest in Jaipur (13.2%) and lowest in Kolkata (5.4%). The unemployment rate for women is the highest in Patna — at 346, it is more than four times the urban average of 73.

“女性对城市的体验不同；满足妇女的需求对于促进可持续的城市发展变得至关重要。”

这篇论文将在爱思唯尔期刊‘Transport Policy’上发表。研究发现，斋浦尔的侵犯女性的犯罪率最高，金奈最低。在男女识字率方面，斋浦尔的差距最大(13.2%)，加尔各答最低(5.4%)。巴特那的女性失业率最高，是城市平均失业率的四倍多。

BMC has got plenty of opportunities to loot more as how can they allow Mumbai to have the best quality of life in spite of pot holed roads, dirty drinking water, polluted air, snarling traffic, corruption all around, glaring slums, protected rapes, abundance of drugs, Bullywood goons., underworld dadagiris... and a slave police force..??!!

孟买道路坑坑洼洼，饮用水脏，空气污染，交通混乱，腐败猖獗，贫民窟随处可见，强奸犯受到保护，毒品泛滥，宝莱坞暴徒横行，他们怎么能说孟买的生活质量最高呢?

我在钦奈、德里、孟买、加尔各答、普纳、昌迪加尔、斋浦尔等大城市生活过。总体来说，我觉得昌迪加尔的生活水平最高，它是印度唯一的规划城市，基础设施齐全，最糟糕的是孟买，极其拥挤，环境潮湿
