Abstract : The city of Rajsamand has experienced a vast change in land use and land cover in the last few decades. The main objective of this study is to analyze the change in land use/land cover (LULC) of Rajsamand urban area. Urbanization refers to industrialization and rapid growth in urban population. Land management is one of the most important elements in the development of the city. According to the present scenario, valuable agricultural land is being converted into non-agricultural land on the pretext of urban expansion of Rajsamand. The findings of this study provide information on changes in land use patterns that Rajsamand city officials can use to develop sustainable development plans.

Keywords : Rajsamand; remote sensing and GIS; Land Use/Land Cover (LULC); Urbanization.
