Nagpur (India) tall buildings

I want to request you to include Nagpur (India) in the list of tall building. As other cities of India are already included in this category. There are cities smaller than Nagpur in this list. So, why not Nagpur? There are number of high rise buildings under construction in the city and its outskirts. This will provide information to those people who want to live in high rises in Nagpur.

Better then suggesting it, you should do it yourself. The only qualification to fix a Wikipedia article and make it better is to want to see it done. Since you have expressed that you want to see it done, you are quite literally the most qualified person in the world. No one else could do a better job of it than you, right now, because you want to, and obviously no one has yet wanted to do it, lest it would have already been done. Which it isn't. So you should get on that. --Jayron32 06:14, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, according to The Times of India in a report called Nagpur Municipal Corporation imposes new charge for tall building's on May 10, 2012, "At present, highest building in the city is only 42 metres. However, construction of taller buildings has started. An under construction building at Godrej's Anandam township is tallest at 64 metres." If you go to our List of tallest buildings in India, you'll see that there are 106 buildings that currently stand at 115 metres or higher, the tallest is currently The Imperial (Mumbai), Tower One being 254 metres high. Under construction, also in Mumbai, is the World One building, which is planned to be 442 metres. This is some way behind Burj Khalifa in Dubai, which stands at 828 metres. The World One will be in the joint number ten slot in the world's tallest building rankings, unless something taller is finished first - the Kingdom Tower in Saudi Arabis is planned to be 1,000 metres high. But don't be disheartened, England dropped out of the List of tallest structures in the world in 1549 when the 160 metre spire of Lincoln Cathedral fell down.
