In the ‘multiple nuclei’ approach it is argued that within any city, separate functions and their particular needs require concentration within specific and specialized districts. Thus, within cities similar activities are often located in the same area, forming agglomerations or mini-centres. Cities often grow asymmetrically around these multiple nuclei.1

For example Surat city has zari industry at the city centre, diamond cutting industry on one side of the city and a petro-chemical industry at Hazira for which the Reliance company had acquired 1000 acres of land near Tapti river. Each of these economic centres functioned like a separate nucleus. |
