The CDP for Greater Berhampur would comprise a total area of 317 square km which is expected to have a population of close to one million. The present CDP is being prepared keeping in view the development of greater Berhampur till the year 2031. The area under greater Berhampur will include the urban centres of Berhampur, Gopalpur and Chatrapur and some adjoining villages between them.
