Gwalior West is a development project under National Capital Region.

[1] The Special Area Development Authority (SADA) was created by Madhya Pradesh government to implement the counter magnet project of the National Capital Region (NCR) in Madhya Pradesh.

The area is bounded to the West by the Tigra reservoir and Sank river, and to the East by the AH47 (previously the NH3).

The ground is considered to be poor quality for agriculture, therefore suitable for urbanization.

[3] SADA was criticized in 2010 for inefficient budgeting, and for failing to produce a balance sheet.
