Dibrugarh, India · 200,000 people · Industrial City

The city

Landmark: Brahmaputra Riverfront & Assam Orthodox Tea Estates.

• The Dibrugarh district administration manages one of the world's most severe urban river erosion problems — the Brahmaputra's braided channels shift course and consume several metres of eastern city land annually, requiring a permanent Erosion Control Authority, riprap embankment construction, and continuously updated land record systems that track properties literally disappearing into the river each monsoon season.
• The Assam Tea Tribe Development Corporation oversees welfare and urban services for over 800,000 tea garden workers in Dibrugarh district, operating schools, hospitals, and ration shops within estate "garden towns" that function as self-contained townships — a colonial-era governance model where Dibrugarh municipality coordinates public services with private tea-estate management systems, making the city a unique dual-authority urban space.

How a term works

Take office and every day brings a live situation from the city's services: a decision to make and a result that is measured. A term is scored on approval, infrastructure, environment and innovation, inside a real budget, and every mayor's work adds to Dibrugarh's own record on the Board of Mayors. You are not alone in office: message and chat with other mayors, form a council with friends, trade with nearby cities and send aid. Cities rise together: there is no losing city.
