EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION

Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) focuses on (i) improving and

augmenting the economic and social infrastructure of cities; (ii) ensuring basic services to the urban poor including security of tenure at affordable prices; (iii) initiating wide-ranging urban sector reforms whose primary aim is to eliminate legal, institutional and financial constraints that have impeded management of, and investment in, urban infrastructure and services; and (iv) strengthening municipal governments and their functioning in accordance with the provisions of the 74th Constitution Amendment Act, 1992. JNNURM comprises of two sub-missions, namely (i) Sub-Mission for Urban Infrastructure and Governance, including water supply, sewerage and sanitation, solid waste management, urban transport, redevelopment of core areas, development of heritage, and environment. (ii) Sub-Mission for Basic Services to the Urban Poor, including shelter, infrastructure services and related civic amenities The Government of India has proposed substantial assistance through the JNNURM to the selected Mission cities. All mission cities are expected to formulate a City Development Plan (CDP). The CDP is based on an assessment of the existing situation, and outlines a vision for development, strategies for achieving this; indicative investment requirements and financial operating plans, indicating how investments made are to be sustained. The CDP will facilitate identification of projects. The ULBs/ parastatal agencies will be required to prepare DPR for the projects. The current status of sectors covered under JNNURM for Delhi are presented below E.1 City Assessment: Urban Infrastructure and Governance The National Capital Territory, Delhi (NCTD) area consists of the following three municipal areas-

• New Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) area at the core, spread over an area of 42.74 km2

• Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) area, occupying 1,397 sq. kms, or 94 % of the area of the city.

• Delhi Cantonment Board (DCB) area between the Airport and the NDMC area, spread over an area of 42.97 km2

In 1999, the urban area of Delhi was 701.62 sq. kms (47.3 % of NCTD area). This is proposed to be increased to 977.91 sq. kms, or 66 % of the total area, by 2021. The CDP addresses the urban area of the NCTD as a whole. Detailed assessments for the NDMC and DCB areas may be taken up at a later date, and incorporated into the document. E.1.1 Land and Urban Growth Management The DDA is responsible for guiding planned development in Delhi, through successive Master Plans (1962, 1982 and 2001). It is also the sole agency mandated to develop and dispose of land in the city. The growth of the city over the years has been on a ring and radial pattern, with reliance on road based transport. The development envisaged by previous Master Plans was poly-nodal with a hierarchy of commercial centres located on either ring or radial roads. The DDA, however, has been unable to meet forecasted demands for housing, commercial and industrial space, resulting in large scale unauthorized development, and areas with non-conforming land uses. Only an estimated 30 % of the city’s population lives in planned areas. The poor have borne the brunt of the shortage. In

spite of growing pressure on land resources, there are large tracts of underused land within the central city. A majority of these are government lands bearing low density (2 storey structures) and old housing. Only 30-35% of government employees have been accommodated within these areas. The lack of formal access to appropriate housing has led to the genesis of unauthorized colonies in Delhi. Currently, there are around 1432 unauthorized colonies providing shelter to around 30 lakh people. Unauthorised colonies have being regularized twice in Delhi: in 1961 when over 100 colonies were regularized and in 1977 when around 600 colonies where regularized. 165 urban villages and 52 census towns form part of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCTD). These urban villages have undergone significant physical and functional transformation related to their specific location. Key Issues in growth management are listed below: • Increasing gap between demand and supply of appropriate housing and infrastructure • Encroachments in urban villages • Exploitation of agricultural land for unauthorized development • Inadequate supply of appropriate commercial and industrial space, resulting in non-conforming

land uses. • Lack of Linkage between Physical Planning Strategy and Financial Planning E.1.2 Water Supply DJB is the agency of the Govt. of NCT of Delhi responsible for procurement, treatment, transportation and distribution of water in the MCD areas. It also supplies bulk water to the NDMC, and Delhi Cantonment Board. Water requirements for an estimated population of 16.5 million in 2006 is 990 MGD At present DJB, is equipped to produce 735 MGD of water from 11 Water Treatment Plants (WTPs) and ground water abstraction from 446 tube wells & ranney wells. The per capita availability of water is one of the highest among urban areas. In spite of this, water is supplied for only a few hours in the day. Moreover, norms of supply to different zones vary, and areas at the end of the distribution system receive little water. About 20 per cent of the city’s population is not covered by piped water supply. In the absence of piped water supply from DJB, there has been extensive abstraction of ground water. The issues related to the status of water supply summarized below: • Unaccounted for water losses are estimated at 42% (16% in transmission and 24% in distribution) • There are wide variations in supply, both within and between supply zones • Lack of adequate management systems. E.1.3 Sewerage and Sanitation The DJB is also responsible for the management of the sewer system in MCD areas; and collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of sewage from MCD areas, NDMC & DCB areas. The length of sewers in the city is 7000 kms. The sewage generation in Delhi has been estimated at 800 MGD against the present installed treatment capacity of 512.6 MGD. Thus there is a gap of almost 300 MGD in treatment of waste water1.There are 18 sewage treatment plants (STP’s) in the city, varying from 3–45 years in age. This has resulted in a loss of treatment efficiency. The issues related to the status of Sewerage are presented below: • An estimated 530 MGD of untreated sewage is discharged into the river Yamuna. • Due to network deficiencies, there is an overflow from sewers into storm water drains. • Trunk sewers are considerably silted, requiring desilting & repair to restore their capacity in a

time bound manner. • The city’s STPs and Sewage Pumping Stations are several years old - leading to reduced

efficiency. • Upgrading conveyance system needs to be undertaken, for full capacity utilization of Common

Effluent Treatment Plants.

E.1.4 Solid Waste Management The conservancy and sanitation department of MCD is responsible for the collection, transportation and disposal of solid waste in the city. The total quantum of solid waste generated per day in Delhi is estimated to be 7,700 MT. Of this, an estimated 6000MT are collected and disposed. Currently, different types of waste streams in the city, including municipal waste, bio-medical waste, construction debris, industrial waste slaughter house waste, electronic waste…etc are all mixed. Waste from different parts of the city is transported to three landfill sites, located at Gazipur, Balaswa and Okhla. The issues related to the status of Solid Waste in city are summarized below: • The existing landfills (dump-sites) are almost full. They need to be closed immediately in a

scientific manner, and new sanitary landfills (SLF) need to be developed and commissioned at the earliest possible.

• Treatment of wastes is almost non-existent. Treatment facilities dedicated to different waste streams, to the extent possible, need to be developed

• Open 'dhalao' (masonry bin) is still the major receptacle for MSW in Delhi. These lead to exposure of the waste to the environment and multiple handling (from depositing of waste to its loading into the collection vehicle)

E.1.5 Traffic and Transportation The PWD, MCD, DDA, DTTDC and MUD are responsible for the construction and maintenance of roads in the city; whereas urban transport is managed by Transport department. The road network length in Delhi was 28,500 km in March 2001 up three times increase from 8,380 km in 1971-72. The road network comprising of ring and radial pattern has C.P. as focal point with Mathura road, Lal Bhadur Shastri Marg, Aurobindo Marg, Rao Tula Ram Marg, Gurgaon Road (NH 8) Patel road, Shankar road, Rohtak Road, G.T.Road (NH-1), Loni road, Shahadra road, NH 24 bypass forming the radials; and Mahatma Gandhi Road (Ring Road), Outer Ring road, Noida road- Bund road forming the prominent rings. These radial and ring roads serve as major arterials carrying bulk of the traffic in the city. During morning and evening peak hours 55-60 per cent of the major arterials have travel speeds less than 30 kmph, while even in off peak hours 40-45 per cent of major arterials have travel speeds less than 30 kmph. While the large number of signalized intersections in the city has led to excessive travel time and fuel consumption, the construction of fly-overs has only shifted the location of congestion. Urban Delhi is predominantly dependant on road based transport systems as railways caters to only about 1% of local traffic demand (excluding the Metro). The overall capture of public transport services in the city is only 60 per cent of total trips. Of this, the metro currently accounts for 15 per cent. The widespread distribution of employment centers all over the urban space of Delhi has contained the growth in length of trips. Over 33 per cent of total trips are short trips (less than 15 mins duration) The percentage distribution of categories of motor vehicles in Delhi shows that there has been a rapid increase in the number of cars during 1990-2000; while there has been a decline in the other category of vehicles. About two third of motor vehicles are two wheelers, though a decreasing trend in that share has been observed since 1990. On the other hand, due to arrival of low priced small cars and easy financing mechanisms, there is an indication of a shift from two wheelers to cars. The share of cars has increased from 22% in 1991 to 31% in 2005. The issues related to traffic and transportation management in the city are presented below: • The high growth rate of vehicular traffic volumes on roads causing congestion, delay, safety

issues, pollution. • The low capture of public transport systems, due to lack of integration of various modes. • The need to ensure the safety of pedestrians, who accounting for 55%, of total causalities in

accidents (1999). • Inadequate parking, leading to congestion and delays on major arterial network.

E.1.6 Storm Water Drainage The DJB, MCD and PWD are jointly responsible for the construction and maintenance of drains in the city. Storm water drainage in Delhi is a complex situation, owing to the combination of a number of natural and man-made drainage systems – five drainage basins; large natural drains; storm water drains along roads; and combined sewer-cum-storm water drains (sometimes as a bypass arrangement for blocked sewer lines). Most of the water collected through different drainage systems finally gets discharged into the river Yamuna. The length of natural drains in the city is 350 km carrying discharge of 1000 m3, whereas the total length of drains is 1700 kms spread over 12 municipal zones. The BOD levels of waters in 90 % of city drains indicate that the discharge is comparable to a range of weak to strong domestic sewage. The main issues related to the sector are • Storm water drains carry considerable quantities of raw and untreated effluents • Lack of maintenance, leading to chocked drains. • Lack of coordination in planning and construction of roads and drains E.1.7 City Heritage The ASI, State Dept. of Archaeology, the DDA, MCD, INTACH and DUAC jointly manage the city’s heritage areas. Delhi encompasses a vast range of heritage typologies, including archaeological sites; civic buildings and complexes; religious structures and complexes; historic gardens; hunting lodges; living settlements such as the historic Walled City; the planned city of New Delhi as well as traditional networks associated with systems of water harvesting and management. These heritage resources continue to be of great significance and relevance to any sustainable development planning vision for Delhi. However, heritage in the city suffers from a lack of integration with the planning process and contemporary requirements, as a result of which, it is gradually being degraded and lost. In 1913, there were 411 identified heritage buildings in Zone A, whereas these have reduced to 231 in 2000. This, and other issues related to urban heritage are outlined below: • Lack of integration with development processes in the city • Heritage resources are threatened by over-densification, uncontrolled and inappropriate

construction due to the non-enforcement of guidelines for development in their vicinity • Multiplicity of organizations and lack of effective, coordinated action. E.1.8 City Environment The DPCC, CPCB, CGWB, MCD and DJB are responsible for regulating and monitoring the state of the city’s environment. Delhi’s unprecedented rate and scale of urbanization over the last few decades has placed enormous stress on the natural resources of the city. In comparison to the urbanization rate in the last 50 years, the rate of environmental degradation has grown at a much higher rate. This includes the loss of green cover, loss of biodiversity and aesthetics; increasing air pollution, surface and ground water pollution; loss of water bodies, receding water table, high incidence of diseases and mortality. The transport, domestic and industrial sectors are the major contributors to the rise in ambient air pollution levels (although certain background sources such as desert dust also contribute). Most of the 916 lakes, ponds and reservoirs reported to have existed in city have been depleted. Rejuvenation is being taken for a few (Sanjay Lake, Hauz Khas). The most pressing environmental concern is the continued degradation of the river Yamuna, due to the dumping of untreated effluents into its waters. Issues related to the status of city environment are presented below: • Unsustainable extraction of ground water • Weak management of natural resources, leading to degradation of the ridge, the river and surface water bodies

• Air, ground water and noise pollution E.1.9 Urban Governance The institutional framework for urban management in Delhi consists of a multiplicity of agencies, at both central and state levels, responsible for various aspects of planning, land management, urban infrastructure and its management. The institutions/agencies involved in performing city level functions include Central Government Agencies and State Government Agencies. The issues related to city institutional set up are discussed in Table below

Issues Status

National Functions versus local functions

▪ Delhi, being the National capital, has to serve certain functions directly under the jurisdiction of Central Government. These clashes with the establishment of an effective local government incorporating citizen’s participation.

Implementation of 74th CAA

Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi has not been able to implement the 74th Amendment to the Constitution. Major decisions in planning and implementing the Master Plan are still taken by a Central

Government Agency, that is, DDA. MCD has been trying to introduce the new system of Local Area Plans (LAP), through

amendments to Unified Building Byelaws of Delhi. As things stand today, LAP violates the Delhi Development Act 1957 as well as Delhi Municipal Corporation Act.

Since legislation is not enacted by the GNCTD, necessary institutional mechanisms such as the DMPC are not in place.

Overlapping of jurisdiction

There is a lack of clarity over departmental responsibilities for land use planning, development, maintenance and enforcement. The geographical boundary of the State Government and MCD are co-terminus, and their functions are almost the same. In other cases, administrative and functional sub-divisions do not match. This has resulted in ineffective and uncoordinated decision making and actions. For eg., the boundaries of the revenue districts and the MCD zones do not match.

Overlapping of functions

Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has failed to identify and coordinate with the State Government.

Other Infrastructure Sectors

Multiplicity of Organizations Lack of coordination and no common data base for management Conflicting and overlapping jurisdictions eg.: three different agencies are responsible for

storm water drainage in the city

E.2 City Assessment: Basic Services to Urban Poor E.2.1 Urban Poor and Slums In Delhi, as in other urban areas of the country, slums and urban poverty, they are a pressing issue. The percentage of people below poverty line (BPL) stood at 49.61% for Delhi in 1973-74. This figure has declined steadily and stood at 10.02% in 2001. It is reported that 85% of the poor are squatters, and are vulnerable to frequent eviction. 6% of the poor live in rented accommodation and have to pay a substantial portion of their income for rent. Slums in Delhi are classified as (a) Notified Slums in Old Walled City area: There are 319 katras in the Walled City area with about 3,000 buildings or properties. Out of these, 365 properties have been identified as dangerous and therefore require resettlement of inhabitants. (b) JJ Clusters or Squatter settlements: These are scattered all over the city. In Delhi, over 80 percent of lands occupied by slums belong to the DDA. (c) Resettlement Colonies: Under the schemes for resettlement of JJ clusters, 44 resettlement colonies were developed during 1961-77. Around 2.0 Lakh plots were developed accommodating about 2.4 lakh households. These resettlement colonies have degenerated due to intense population pressures and unorganized development. (c) Relocated JJ Clusters: There are around 11 relocation sites such as Bawana, Holambi Kalan, Papan kalan, Rohini, Narela, Savdar Ghevada etc. The most recent relocation, of slums from central, south and east Delhi, has been made to four principal sites - Dwarka (Papan Kalan), Rohini, Narela and Savda Ghevada. Issues related to the urban poor and slums summarized below: • There is no clear legal framework (Act), or policy to guide interventions in this area

E-6

• Their legal security of tenure is diminishing in official rehabilitation programmes over the years • There is a low rate of in-situ up-gradation of existing JJ clusters, although this is recommended

as the first course of action • Over 80% of residents do not have access to infrastructure and public services at relocation

sites. In addition, these are far removed from work centers, and lack connectivity E.3 SWOT Analysis On the basis of the above assessment, an analysis of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats to the city was undertaken, which informed the vision and strategies for development that were formulated thereafter. E.3.1 Strengths

SECTORS STRENGTHS

Page 9: City Development Plan Delhi

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

E-7

SECTORS WEAKNESSES • Lack of solid waste management facilities (for treatment and disposal) in the city

leading to indiscriminate dumping of garbage and land pollution. • Existing dumping sites are saturated and no new ones have been developed • Lack of drainage and sewerage network especially in the newly developed areas. • The surface drains are used for carriage of 25-30% sewerage, leading to environment

hazards • Lack of infrastructure facilities like water supply, sewerage, road and drainage in

the unauthorized colonies; urban villages and colonies developed by private developers.

• Inadequate capture public transport system, due to inherent weaknesses, leading to skewed traffic composition on the road network of the city.

• Lack of parking space in the city. • Lack of tourism infrastructure facilities • Inadequate public conveniences. • Disposal of untreated industrial wastes and sewage in Yamuna River.

Urban Growth and Land Management • Haphazard growth of the city due to lack of provision of developed land and

infrastructure. Areas include urban villages; resettlement colonies and unauthorized colonies

• High population density within the walled city & Extension and East Delhi planning Division. Moreover low density development in RK Puram; Motibagh; Vinay Nagar..etc

• Rate of Unauthorized developments and illegal land subdivisions are increasing in urban pheriphery and village settlements.

• Lack of parks and open spaces. • Violation of rules, byelaws by the public and residents of walled city- leading to the

loss of heritage in the walled city. • Overcrowding of businesses and people in the walled city.

Conservation • Lack of integration of heritage concerns with planning process

• Lack of proper database management in each sector especially in the Heritage and Infrastructure development. • Absence of clear-cut guidelines and responsibilities of various organizations. • Lack of awareness among in the city people towards heritage conservation. • Ineffective maintenance of heritage sites like Red Fort, Qutab Minar… etc as well as buildings in the walled city and Extension areas.

Urban Environment • Degradation of River Yamuna

• Loss of traditional water systems. • Extreme Depletion of ground water. • Degraded air quality. • Congestion of major arterial roads and commercial area of the city. • Contamination of piped water with sewerage. • Chocked drains

Slums and JJ Clusters

• increasing population (& densities) in existing JJ clusters • Lack of mechanism for on-going creation of housing for the urban poor (lack of

inclusion of urban poor in city development process) • Poor infrastructure facilities in both JJ clusters and resettlement colonies and

relocation sites;

Institutional coordination

• Lack of coordination between central and state government • Lack of coordination among various departments like MCD, DDA, PWD, DJB, DUAC

etc. • Non implementation of 74th CAA in spirit-MCD does not have financial/taxation

powers, budget to be approved from Department of Local Self Government. • Overlapping jurisdictions between DDA, MCD and NDMC; DDA exercise control over

major parts of MCD Area. • Overlapping of functions between line departments.

E.3.3 Opportunities

Page 10: City Development Plan Delhi

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

E-8

SECTORS OPPORTUNITIES Economic competitiveness

• With the availability of good connectivity, it can develop as nodal centre linked with other economically vibrant cities. Has potential to attract private developers and FDI in the housing and infrastructure sectors

• The city has a highly entrepreneurial population • High literacy rates • High growth areas such as NOIDA and Gurgaon are located in the vicinity • Capacity to attract many tourists because of its rich heritage and culture. • Can emerge as an “events capital” particularly after the commonwealth games

2010 Proposed Projects • Commonwealth games-2010 is likely catalyze investment to the tune of Rs 2000

Crore on development of civic infrastructure in the city. • Development of Metro Rail and its extension to other DMA towns will resolve issues

on inter and intra city connectivity State urban reforms

• City is initiating reforms in urban governance through implementation of various governance models such Bhagidari Scheme; E-governance; Repeal of ULCR, PPP models for project implementation etc.

• Institutional reforms being considered for MCD • Heightened focus on key issues-urban slums and improvement of basic

infrastructure Urban Heritage

• Rich heritage can attract the tourists. • The local crafts from across the nation can be show-cased for attracting business

and shoppers during events such as Trade Fair and other events organized in city.

E.3.4 Threats

SECTORS THREATS Economic • Wholesale trade is concentrated in core walled city area, which attracts workers

and traders to the central location-leading to deterioration of the city environment • Lack of adequate infrastructure to capitalize on economic opportunities (roads, freight handling facilities … etc)

Infrastructure • High population growth can lead to further pressure on the infrastructure sector in the future. Augmentation of trunk services is crucial.

• Lack of sewerage system, solid waste management, poor distribution of water can lead to health problems and epidemics in the city.

• Poor infrastructure in new areas -- especially in urban extensions and urban villages -- are a threat to quality of life.

• Infrastructure provision in the slums is inadequate resulting in very poor living conditions.

Institutional and fiscal reforms

• Capacity building of all the government organizations if inadequate would result in non implementation of several reforms.

• Fiscal reforms are a key for carrying out projects and provision of infrastructure in a sustainable manner.

• Urban Development in the city is the responsibility of Central government; and MCD is under both Central and State Government. These overlapping roles of state and central government have led to a non functional executive system of the city.

Conservation • Lack of repair and maintenance of heritage buildings can lead to rapid deterioration of built fabric in the walled city.

• Continued negligence of heritage areas can also lead to loss in tourism revenues • Walled city and Extension faces threat in the event of disasters both natural as

well as man-made.

E.3.5 Vision & Strategies for Development Delhi’s Vision is defined as follows: To become a highly livable city that offers a superior quality of life through a robust, employment generating economy; that is safe and inclusive, environmentally and socially sustainable; and is based on reliable infrastructure and offers a transparent, responsive system of governance dedicated to the city’s felt needs. The CDP outlines Strategies across sectors to achieve the above vision. These are elaborated further below.

Strategy for Economic Development: The city needs to make the best use of its resources, foremost among which is the high level of entrepreneurial ability of its people. In order to unleash the city’s true economic potential, the govt. needs to encourage and nurture these abilities through forward looking policies and interventions. The following strategies are recommended for sustaining the growth of the city well into the future: • Encourage high value-add services; • Organizing Low End Services; • Enhancing Quality; The key areas identified as having most potential for driving the economic growth of the city are: (i) IT & ITES Sector; (ii) Life Style Sector; (iii) Logistics Sector; (iv) Heritage & Tourism Sector; (v) Education Sector. Strategies for Civic Infrastructure Development: Strategies identified to improve water supply system and enhance consumer satisfaction are (i) minimize water losses in transmission and distribution and enhance overall management of distribution; (ii) Augmentation of water supply and (iii) Promotion of efficiency in service delivery and strengthening of cost recovery mechanisms. Strategies for sewerage include (i) Extension and up-gradation of sewage network to intercept sewage (abatement of pollution); (ii) Provision of Sewer Network in un-sewered area; (iii) Augmentation of Sewage Treatment Capacity. The strategies for mitigating key issues in solid waste management are (i) Maximizing effective treatment processes for different waste streams, in order to minimize land required for land fill sites; (ii) Safeguarding the environment by ensuring well developed and sufficient land fill sites for disposal, and increasing efficiency of service delivery. These broad strategies have to be complemented by initiatives at resource-use reduction, waste minimization and pollution prevention. The strategies suggested for improvement of drainage system in the city are (i) Creation of an appropriate, integrated authority to deal with the sewer drains, the storm water drains and the natural drainage basins of the NCT area; (ii) Short-term repair and de-silting of all the drains on emergency basis; (iii) After monitoring the functioning of the South Delhi Greenway Project for Barapulla drain, initiating the same in the medium term for Najafgarh drain, which is by far the largest contributor in terms of discharge into river Yamuna (51.75%). The strategies suggested for improvement of road network and transport system in the city are (i) Provision of safe and efficient public transport system; (ii) Encouraging the use of non-motorized modes of passenger transport in select localities; (iii) Ensuring equitable use of space on road and priority to pedestrians; (iv) Efficient use of existing infrastructure – removal of impediments – including enhancement of road infrastructure and provision of efficient parking facilities; (v) Redevelopment of Connaught Place and Walled City as special areas; (vi) Development of goods and passenger terminals on the basis of directional needs; (vii) Enhancement of road infrastructure and (viii) Awareness and enforcement drives. Four main strategies have been identified, for management of urban heritage. These strategies are (i) Capacity Building & Provision of Technical Support for Conservation & Heritage Management;(ii) Heritage Resource Information Management System for integration of heritage concerns within the development plans – Master Plan, Zonal, Sub-Zonal, Area Level; (iii) Area Level Conservation, revitalization and Regeneration strategies which include supportive and linked sub-strategies for adaptive reuse; (iv) heritage sensitive infrastructure up-gradation, provision of essential community facilities, commercial areas, guidelines for new development in historic areas, strengthening of linkages with surrounding contemporary development; Strategies for heritage tourism, enhanced visitor experience and revenue generation, and awareness generation

The main strategies, under which projects pertaining to the environment have been proposed, relate to (i) Outreach and capacity building; (ii) Enhancement of forests and green cover; (iii) Mitigation of air, water and noise pollution. Strategies for Slums and the Urban Poor Strategies for urban poor and slums are derived from the established fact that the poor are not a homogenous group, and vary widely in their requirements of shelter. This takes into account factors such as extent of consolidation in the city, location sensitivity, physical requirement, ability to pay as well as tenure security. Shelter options may vary from a single bed and locker in a dormitory for the male migrant, to an independent unit. The ability to exercise choice, with a variety of options, is thus, important, in the success of any programme to provide shelter for all categories of the poor. In addition, pricing, location, tenure conditions, and financing are critical considerations in catering to this segment. Strategies to reach housing for the poor include (i) In-situ rehabilitation at existing slum and JJ cluster sites, with units offered on a long term lease hold basis (with option for purchase), through a cooperative, trust, NGO etc. (ii) Development of serviced plots, to be upgraded incrementally, at out-lying locations, for outright purchase -- connectivity to work centers to be assured. (iii) Development of night shelters in the city as well as at outlying locations single beds, single rooms with shared facilities for long term stay managed by trusts, or NGO’s with government support (iv) Infrastructure up-gradation in 44 resettlement colonies (v) Provision of housing for the urban poor on an on-going basis (vi) Reconstruction of government owned Katras in the walled city Recommendations on Urban Governance The status of reform initiatives at the ULB level and State Government level to successfully implement and operate the JnNURM projects has been reviewed. The broad agenda for further institutional reforms are • To clearly institute a political and administrative nodal agency, which could provide effective

governance to the NCT; • To ensure that the function and powers of this agency and its constituents, match their

responsibilities and make them fully accountable. • To enable clarity of jurisdiction of various agencies coming into contact with the people and

entrusted with various responsibilities Recommendations to achieve the above include (i) Defining and delimiting areas of the city required to perform the functions of a National Capital (ii) to allow the State Government a say in land and municipal management in the balance areas (iii) subdividing the MCD to create Zonal Councils, the elected representatives of which will report to the Chief Minister (iv) to rationalize planning divisions to match Zonal Council demarcations (v) to constitute a Metropolitan Planning Committee to undertake planning for the entire city (vi) to constitute an Urban Renewal Corporation to undertake renewal of select areas in the city (v) to constitute a Slum Housing Corporation to tackle the issue of housing for the poor.

E.5 FINANCIAL SUSTENANCE PLAN

The investment sustaining capacity of MCD, NDMC and DJB, the municipal fiscal situation has been simulated, based on a Financial Operating Plan (FOP). The FOP is essentially a multi-year forecast of municipal finances for a term of 15 years. It has been used to forecast the revenue income and operating expenditures for the period between FY 2005-06 and FY 2019-20. The department wise capital investments are presented in the table below. At least 5% of the investment requirements of ULB’s (minimum) is proposed to be mobilized through the private sector. Beneficiary contributions will also account for a part (small) of this investment requirement.

By instituting prudent fiscal measures and reforms, the MCD will be able to enhance its revenue from the current level (2005-06) of Rs. 2019 Crore to Rs. 5,098.7 Crore in 2011-12. A large part of this is anticipated to accrue from property tax revenues. The ULB is undertaking reform measures in this area, including instituting on-line filing of taxes from 01-04-2007; and digitization and computerization of property tax records, which is due to be completed by 2008-09. This will enable efficiencies to be enhanced in both coverage and collection.

CHAPTER – 1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND

The Government of India has recently announced the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM). The Mission focuses on (i) improving and augmenting the economic and social infrastructure of cities; (ii) ensuring basic services to the urban poor including security of tenure at affordable prices; (iii) initiating wide-ranging urban sector reforms whose primary aim is to eliminate legal, institutional and financial constraints that have impeded investment in urban infrastructure and services; and (iv) strengthening municipal governments and their functioning in accordance with the provisions of the 74th Constitution Amendment Act, 1992. The objectives of the JNNURM are to ensure:

• Focused attention to integrated development of infrastructure services in

cities; • Establishment of linkages between asset-creation and asset-management

through a slew of reforms for long term project sustainability; • Ensuring adequate funds to meet deficiencies in urban infrastructure

services; • Planned development of identified cities including peri-urban areas,

outgrowths and urban corridors leading to dispersed urbanization; • Scaling up delivery of civic amenities and provision of utilities with emphasis

on universal access to the urban poor; • Special focus on urban renewal programme for old city areas to reduce

congestion; and • Provision of basic services to the urban poor including improved housing,

water supply and sanitation, and ensuring delivery of other existing universal services of the government for education, health and social security.

JNNURM comprises of two sub-missions, namely (i) Sub-Mission for Urban Infrastructure and Governance, and (ii) Sub-Mission for Basic Services to the urban Poor.

1.2 CONCEPT & PRINCIPLES OF CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN

The City Development Plan is both a planning process and a product, which promotes partnership among the various stakeholders in a city- the city government, the private business sector, civil society, academic, and national government agencies- to jointly analyze growth issues, develop a vision for the future, formulate development strategies, design programmes, prioritize projects, mobilize resources, implement, monitor and evaluate implementation. The CDP is anchored on the following principles of a sustainable city.

LIVABILITY - what can be done to ensure a healthy and dignified standard of living for the city's residents? COMPETITIVENESS - how can the cities be more competitive in the global economy? BANKABILITY - how can the cities be more sustainable? How can public-private partnerships be promoted and/or enhanced? GOOD GOVERNANCE - how can a city's management be improved? How can accountability, integrity and transparency be made an integral part of a city's management?

1.2.1. Objective of City Development Plan

The goals of a City Development Plan include a collective city vision and action plan aimed at improving urban governance and management, increasing investment to expand employment and services, and systematic and sustained reductions in urban poverty. In order to achieve the above goals, the objectives of the CDP are to:

• Guide & promote economic development of the city; • Develop a consensus building process to establish the city's development

priority, strategies and actions; • Assist local authorities outline their financing and investment strategies;

and, build local capacity for more effective urban management. 1.3 CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN - A PROCESS

A City Development Plan is a perspective of and a vision for the future development of a city. Essentially, it addresses the following questions: 1. Where are we now? 2. Where do we want to go? 3. What do we need to address on priority basis? 4. What interventions do we make in order to attain the vision?

The framework for preparing CDP as outlined in JNNURM toolkit is presented Figure 1.1. A key aspect in preparation of the CDP is the involvement of the community of stakeholders in the decision process.

Figure 1.1 - Multistage Process

1.3.1. City Assessment: Analysis of Existing Situation

This is the first step in the preparation of the CDP and includes: (a) An analysis of the existing situation focusing on demographic analysis and

economic activity, land use, financial, urban infrastructure and urban services (like transportation, water supply, and sanitation, sewerage and solid waste management, drainage, transport parking spaces etc) and physical and environmental aspects including heritage areas, water bodies etc.

(b) An assessment of the financial status of the City Government, parastatal and other agencies dealing with service provision including an analysis of

their credit worthiness, effectiveness and efficiency of the institutional frameworks.

(c) Critical assessment as well as projections of the population growth, infrastructure needs and resource requirements in the short-term, medium term and long-term perspectives.

(d) Urban poverty, characteristics of slums e.g. social set up, availability of urban basic and social services and on-going slum improvement programmes etc. An assessment of the inner city and urban renewal requirements, an analysis of present status of availability of urban basic services including the condition of the infrastructure.

(e) Identification of existing nature of commercial and industrial establishments and identification of industries and commercial establishments that are not in conformity to the existing land-use planning and zoning regulations in the inner city areas.

(f) Heritage areas, including Archaeological Heritage, Architectural Heritage, and Architectural Conservation Areas.

(g) To highlight the "Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats" (SWOT Analysis) of the City Government / parastatal agencies and related Government departments in the City's specific context to provide an understanding of the factors responsible for inefficient and inadequate production and delivery of urban services, their managerial deficiencies and financial constraints; and to highlight critical factors that call for urgent remedial measures at the city and State governments level.

1.3.2. Development of Strategic Agenda and a Vision for the City

Based on the outcomes of the City Assessment, the second stage envisages the development of a Vision to guide the future development of the city, highlighting the direction of change and working out an Action agenda for implememntation with a specific time frame. Based on the Vision, strategies focusing on growth management, urban infrastructure and basic services, slum improvement, housing for EWS, provision of basic services for urban poor, protection of heritage areas, preservation of water bodies, redevelopment of inner city areas, etc. will be proposed. These strategies will respond risks and opportunities facing the city with a focus on reform and reform priorities. The Development of a Vision will be undertaken in consultation with various stakeholders and civil society in the city. Public consultations will focus on broad assessment of municipal resources, possible impact on the municipal budget and the proposal for reform to support development.

1.3.3. Evolving Strategies for Development

This element of work involves highlighting interventions to operationalize the Vision and future development of the city. This includes:

• Identification of options and strategies and their evaluation keeping in view

Page 35: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 1 Introduction

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

1-5

their contribution to the goals, objectives and the reform agenda of the JNNURM.

• Translating the strategies into programmes and projects and • Identifying the programmes that have maximum contribution to the

achievement of the city's Vision and medium term perspectives.

Prioritization of the strategies, programmes and projects needs to be done as a consultative process with all the stakeholders.

1.3.4. Developing a City Investment Plan and Financing Strategy

This includes: (a): Preparation of a City Investment Plan (CIP), which will include the level of investment requirements to implement the CDP by adopting the financial norms or standards for service provision, and their upgradation, restoration, relocation etc, and directly estimating the cost of implementing the reform agenda. (b): Evaluation of financial options and strategies for financing the Vision, as enumerated in the CDP. Areas which the city government could finance by mobilizing resources in association with other tiers of government or financing institutions; the probability of access to capital market; the potential of enlisting private sector participation and steps needed to facilitate its participation, etc. (c): Broad strategies for financial viability of the proposed investments and improving financial sustainability will be worked out. This would include options for PPP in service delivery and O & M, wherever relevant. The investment schedules will layout the costs and revenue estimates of all priority projects in the next seven years of the Mission period. The preparation of CIP would be an iterative process requiring the adjustments and rescheduling to make the whole package work financially.

CHAPTER - 2 CITY DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE

2.1 INTRODUCTION – LOCATION, GEOGRAPHY AND CLIMATE

Delhi is located in northern India between the latitudes of 28°-24’-17” and 28°-53’-00” North and longitudes of 76°-50’-24” and 77°-20’-37” East. It has an area of 1,483 sq. kms. with a maximum length of 51.90 kms and greatest width of 48.48 kms. It shares borders with the States of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana. The Yamuna River and terminal part of the Aravali hill range are the two main geographical features of the city. The Aravali hill ranges are covered with forest and are called the Ridges; they are the city’s lungs and help maintain its environment. The average annual rainfall in Delhi is 714 mm, three-fourths of which falls in July, August and September. Heavy rainfall in the catchment area of the Yamuna can result in a dangerous flood situation for the city. During the summer months of April, May and June, temperatures can rise to 40-45 degrees Celsius. Winters are typically cold with minimum temperatures during December and January falling to 4 to 5 degree Celsius. February and March, October and November are climatically the best months. The forest cover has increased from 0.76% of the total area in 1980-81 to 1.75% in 1994-95 and 5.93% in 2000-01. Delhi’s mineral resources are primarily sand and stone, which are useful for construction activities. However, the stone quarries in the Ridge area have been shut down since 1984 on account of environmental considerations.

2.2 DEMOGRAPHIC TRENDS Delhi has been one of the fastest growing cities in the country, clocking over 47% decadal growth from 1991-2001, more than double the national rate. A large part of this rapid growth has been due to the high level of migration. The subsequent sections take a closer look at the trends.

National Capital Region: The NCR comprises of the entire NCT Delhi, eight districts of Haryana, one district of Rajasthan and five districts of Uttar Pradesh with a population of over 371 lakhs in 2001. The sub-regions of NCT-Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh accommodated 37.33%, 23.42%, 8.07% and 31.19% of NCR’s population respectively.

2.2.1 Area and Population

The annual average exponential growth rate of population of Delhi was the highest (6.42%) during 1941-1951 due to large-scale migration from Pakistan to India after partition in 1947. Since then the annual growth has been recorded at 4.22 % during 1951-1961; 4.25% during 1961-1971; 4.25% during 1971-1981 and 4.15% during 1981-1991. The annual growth rate of population of Delhi during 1991-2001 has been recorded as 3.85% and it is almost double the national average.

2.2.2 Population Growth, spatial distribution and Density

Delhi was considered as a single district for Population Census 1991. In 1996, Government of NCT of Delhi, through a Gazette Notification, created 9 districts and 27 sub-divisions. Population Census 2001 was conducted in Delhi in each of 9 districts and 27 Sub-divisions. Ranking of districts by population, in 1991 and 2001 is given in Table 2.1 Table 2.1: District-wise population

NCR Settlement Pattern: There are 17 Class I cities in the NCR, including Delhi Metropolis. These account for more than 90 % of the total urban population of the region (Delhi alone accounts for 62%) The highest order settlements identified in Regional plan-2001 were six Central NCR towns and 11 priority towns/regional centers outside NCT-Delhi in NCR. The CNCR towns were envisaged to grow to 37 lakhs against which they actually grew to 28.11 lakhs as per the census 2001. Of these six towns, the towns of Ghaziabad and Faridabad reached their targeted population; the rest of the CNCR towns could not achieve their target. The planned vs actual population figures are given in the table below.

The Planning Commission estimates the proportion and number of poor separately for rural and urban India at the national and state levels based on the recommendations of the Task Force on 'Projections of Minimum Needs and Effective Consumption Demands' (1979). The Task Force had defined the poverty line (BPL) as the cost of an all India average consumption basket at which calorie norms were met. The norms were 2400 calories per capita per day for rural areas and 2100 calories for urban areas. These calories norms have been expressed in monetary terms for each individual year.

CHAPTER - 3 CITY ECONOMIC PROFILE

3.1 INTRODUCTION

Delhi is rapidly emerging as a world-class metropolis. With a 15% average compounded growth rate, it has one of the fastest growing economies in the country, among cities with million plus population. As with all metros, Delhi’s economy is driven by the services sector, which accounts for 78% of its GSDP and provides employment to 58% of the labour force.

The growing affluence of its populace is reflected by the relatively high per capita income, which at Rs. 47,477 in 2002-03 ranks second only to Chandigarh. Its literacy rate of 81.82% (as per census 2001) is fourth highest among states in the country. At the same time, this affluence acts as a magnet for immigration from neighboring states and drives the rapid growth in the City’s population. As per the 2001 census the City had a decadal growth rate of 46.31% over 1991, which was more than double the All India growth rate.

On the one hand the growing population, coupled with the growing per capita income is fuelling the growth of the services sector, which in turn provides employment to a majority of the work force. The high proportion of immigration also provides a ready pool of resources for the unorganized sector of the City, which constitutes a significant portion of the overall economy of Delhi.

However, it is necessary to study the various aspects of the economy to understand the dynamics further and formulate a coherent strategy for the future.

3.1.1 Economic Planning

Economic planning for Delhi is presently undertaken at the State level, by the Planning Department of the Govt. of National Capital Territory of Delhi. This section takes a quick look at the economic planning agendas over the last few years, and the present trends.

Of the Rs. 15,541.28 crore approved by the Planning Commission as plan outlay for the 9th Five Year Plan for Delhi, the tentative expenditure in the 9th Five Year Plan would be about Rs. 13,469.68 crore. It is about 87% of the original approved outlay. The details of outlay and expenditure during Annual Plans under the 9th Five Year Plan are presented below in Table 3.1: Table 3.1: Details of outlay & expenditure during Annual Plan under 9th Five Year Plan

During the last two plans (8th & 9th), Infrastructure areas like Energy, Transport, Urban Development and Water Supply received a majority of the funding, indicating the focus of the Govt. on Urban Infrastructure, which required major up gradation, driven by the rising population and expectations. Table 3.2, given below, shows the investments in each of the priority sectors.

Sectoral Review The analysis of sectoral growth in Gross State Domestic Product at current prices reveals that contribution of primary sector comprising of agriculture, livestock, forestry, fishing, mining & quarrying and also the secondary sector comprising of manufacturing, electricity, gas, water supply and construction is decreasing. On the contrary, the tertiary sector, also called the service sector, comprising of trade, hotels and restaurants, transport, storage, communication, financing & insurance, real estate, business services, public administration and other services, is the major contributor to the economy of Delhi, increasing regularly. The contribution of primary the sector, which was 3.85 % during 1993-94, has come down to 1.13% in 2002-03. Similarly the contribution of the secondary sector recorded at 25.20% in the base year has also declined to 21.90% in 2002-03. On the other hand, the contribution of the tertiary sector which worked out to 70.95% in 1993-94 has increased to 76.97% in 2002-03.

A comparative picture regarding the shift in sectoral composition of GSDP in Delhi is available in Table 3.7 below.

Source: Economic Survey of Delhi 2003-2004 The reasons for the shift in the sectoral composition of the Delhi Economy may be attributed to the rapid urbanization and consequential reduction in agricultural and allied activities on one hand; and substantial increase in activities pertaining to the services sector on the other. Regular monitoring of environmental degradation by different Government agencies on the directives of the Honorable Supreme Court and subsequent closure of polluting industrial units also contributed to the reduction of output of the secondary sector.

NCR Review: The industrial activities in NCR have been developing over a span of more than three decades during which substantial structural changes have taken place. Industrial development in NCR, to a large extent, is characterized by the ‘Scale Factor’ i.e developments could be easily characterized in terms of large and medium units, small scale industries and development in tiny unorganized units.

The sector has been more or less stagnant over the last 10 years.

3.4 SECONDARY SECTOR

The Secondary sector has seen a steady decline in terms of its share of GSDP. One of the major factors was the policy of shifting polluting industries out of the NCT area. This has lead to a general slow down in industrial activity as can be seen from the chart below. However, the major factor of growth in this sector has been the performance of the construction industry, which at 21.39% CAGR is the highest in all the industrial segments. A quick snapshot of the income of the various types of enterprises in this sector is given in table 3.19 below:

The Gross Value Added per annum, per enterprise, in the unorganised service sector was Rs. 1.52 lakhs. The Value Added per worker in this sector was estimated as Rs. 62,998 per year. Value added per worker in OAE’s was Rs. 37,844 and that of establishments was Rs. 77,939 per annum. The Value Added per worker was relatively high in enterprises located in urban areas (Rs. 63,770) as compared to that of (Rs. 35,011) enterprises located in rural areas.

About 20.03% of these enterprises were expanding, 52.61% were stagnant, 10.93% were contracting as per the assessment of the entrepreneurs.

3.5.7 Other Features

About 25.30% of these enterprises were household based. 57.93% have independent premises outside the household and 16.77% were mobile / hawkers type. Of these, 94.28% enterprises were proprietary in nature. The major problems faced by the entrepreneurs included shortage of capital (16.42%), local problems (13.64%), competition from other units (13.35%) and power cuts (10.14%). The share of enterprises found registered under some authority or act was 93.25% among Own Account enterprises and 91.17% among establishments. Only 3.14% of the enterprises in Delhi have availed any type of assistance.

3.6 ISSUES

Overall the economy of Delhi appears to be on a pretty sound footing. The growth rate and the sectoral trends are quite in line with global trends for very large cities. However, there are a few points of concern. The major points include: 1. The comparatively large influx of low quality manpower from neighboring

states could skew the skill level available. 2. The lack of focus on major value-add sectors like Software, BPO,

Communications and Biotechnology is likely to lead to a situation where the Value-Add per employee / enterprise would be affected adversely. It is ironic that these sectors which have established a strong presence and a fast growth trajectory in the NCR towns like Gurgaon and NOIDA, yet have to make much headway in Delhi.

3. The highly skewed sex ratio in the employment sector, with 15% females in

the workforce.

CHAPTER – 4 CITY ENVIRONMENT PROFILE

4.1 INTRODUCTION

Delhi’s unprecedented rate and scale of urbanization over the last few decades has created enormous stress on the natural resources of the city. In comparison to the urbanization rate in the last 50 years, the rate of environmental degradation grew at a much higher rate. The alarming fact is that it has not ended. This degradation includes loss of green cover, loss of biodiversity and aesthetics, air pollution, surface and ground water pollution, loss of water bodies, receding water table, high incidence of diseases and mortality. According to World Bank estimates, the pollution itself caused nearly 9900 deaths in the year 1995. Environment degradation cannot be ‘cured’. The cure is never complete, losses are too high and remediation is far too expensive. Given this complex scenario, the approach to manage and control has to be strictly adhered to, which will support the smooth development of the city. This chapter gives a description of the existing status of environmental conditions in the city of Delhi

4.1.2 Environmental Management

Environmental regulation, although not new to India, has been given focus only in the eighties. Although the laws are comprehensive, enforcement has been weak and this has been one of the major causes of environmental degradation in Delhi. There are several regulatory agencies operating at the national and city level for implementation of regulations. Table 4.1 shows the various agencies and their roles.

Table 4.1: Agencies in Environmental Management and their Role

All the above mentioned agencies are concerned with activities directly dealing with environmental services, environmental infrastructure investment, environmental planning at the project and sectoral levels. Only two agencies, DPCC for Delhi and EPPCA for NCR are responsible for regulating, monitoring and enforcing environmental concerns.

4.2 NATURAL ENVIRONMENT BASELINE 4.2.1 Physical Features

The city of Delhi lies in the fertile Northern Plains of India. The main features of Delhi are the Aravalli hill ranges and the Yamuna river. The Aravalli hill ranges are covered with forest called the Ridges. The Yamuna is the main source of drinking water for the citizens of Delhi. There is a forest cover of nearly 11.5% of the total area in Delhi. Delhi’s mineral sources are primarily sand and stone which are used for construction activities.

4.2.2 Geology

The geology of Delhi features pre-Cambrian to Quaternary formations in age. The pre Cambrian formations are represented by the Alwar Quartzites. These are overlain by the Aeolian deposits, which are further overlain by the old and the new alluvial deposits.

4.2.3 Climate

Delhi has a semi arid climate, with hot summers, average rainfall and moderate winters. Mean monthly temperatures range from 14.3˚ C in January to 34.5˚ C in June. However, the temperatures go upto 40-45˚ C in summers and 4-5˚ C in winters. The annual precipitation is about 711 mm falling largely during the monsoon months (July – September). Dust storms are frequent during the summer months leading to an immense build-up of particulate matter in the atmosphere.

Environmental protection is a fundamental duty of every citizen of this country under Article 51-A(g) of our Constitution which reads as follows: "It shall be the duty of every citizen of India to protect and improve the natural environment including forests, lakes, rivers and wildlife and to have compassion for living creatures."

4.2.4 Wind Direction

Wind directions vary with season. In the summers, the predominant wind directions are from the west in the morning and either west or northwest in the evening. In the monsoons, the predominant wind directions are from the south-east or west in the morning and from east (in July and August) or north-west (in September) in the evenings. During the post monsoon season, west and calm winds predominate in the mornings while in the evenings, north and northwest winds are most frequent. In the winter mornings, southwest and west winds dominate, while in the evenings, northwest and north winds are frequent

4.2.5 Land Resources Delhi covers an area around of 1483 sq kms based on the estimations in the Master Plan. It consists of the Yamuna Flood Plain, the old Khadar (earlier flood plain) and the Bangar (upper alluvial plain). Majority of the land is covered by fine-to-coarse loamy soils with different levels of moisture-retention capacity. This land has been converted to urban use.

4.2.6 Water Resources

Delhi’s sources of water consist of surface and ground water.

Ground Water Ground water exploration is carried out at a depth range of 50 to 150 m in the Delhi Quartzite. The Quaternary deposits constitute the major repository of ground water. Total ground water resources in the NCT Delhi are estimated around as 28156.32 ha m (Central Ground Water Board). The annual extraction of ground water is estimated around 47945.18 ha m (Central Ground Water Board).

It is reported that there are 611 water bodies including lakes, ponds and reservoirs in Delhi as reported by the Deptt of Irrigation & Flood Control and Directorate Panchayat of Delhi. Most of them have depleted. More than half of these bodies have vanished and another half can not be revived based on data of the Irrigation Department. However, rejuvenation is being taken up in Sanjay Lake, Hauz Khas, Purna Qila, Tihar Lake, Khooni Jheel and a couple of other lakes.

Forest Resources

As per the State of Forest Report, 2003 of Forest Survey of India, Dehradun, Delhi has 170.17 sq kms as forest and tree cover against the total geographical area of 1483 sq kms.

There is one man-made wildlife sanctuary in Delhi managed by the Deptt of Forests and Wildlife that is Asola Wildlife Sanctuary. However, the reclamation of Bhatti Mines and the wildlife sanctuary is being done through the Eco Task Force (ETF).

There are 120 species of plants in Delhi, 32 species of mammals, 25 species of reptiles, and 434 species of resident and other birds. There are 1787 species, 585 species of vertebrates and 1202 species of invertebrates, in Delhi.

Parks and Gardens

As per the MPD, 2001, 8422 ha of land has been earmarked for park greens. There are district parks (part of the Delhi Ridge), Neighbourhood Parks, City Forests, Historical Landscapes, Sports complexes, Landmark Greens and Green Belts. There are 14500 big and small parks managed by the local and semi government agencies. Few of the prominent parks of Delhi are: Lodhi Gardens, Garden of Five Senses, Indraprastha Park and Nehru Park.

4.2.7 Natural Hazards

Flood Hazards

Delhi has been prone to flooding from the rivers Yamuna and Sahibi (through Najafgarh drain). The last floods were witnessed in the year 1978 in Yamuna. This river has crossed its danger level 20 times in the last 33 years. The city also experiences floods due to its network of 98 drains whose catchment area extends well beyond the city limits.

Earthquake Hazards

Delhi is in Zone-IV, characterized by a significantly high intensity of seismic activities, where there are periodic occurrences of earthquakes of the magnitude of 5-6 on the Richter scale.

4.3 URBAN ENVIRONMENT BASELINE

4.3.1 Land-use

44% of the geographical area of Delhi is built-up area. This includes the Delhi urban limits, built-up area in rural-use zones and farmhouse. Even though the Delhi ridge and Asola wildlife sanctuary area has been designated as protected area, built up areas are found in certain pockets. 41% of the area is under agriculture.

4.3.2 Industrial Activity

Location and Type Out of the 1,30,000 industrial units in Delhi, around 25-30,000 are located in the planned industrial areas or comprise permissible household industries. Based on the recommendations of the MPD, it is imperative that a sizeable number of industries be relocated not only for considerations of adherence to the land use pattern, but also because of the pollution caused by them. It has been proposed in the MPD that the classification of the industry in Delhi be of 2 categories; Prohibited and Non-Prohibited. The standards prescribed by the pollution control authorities would have to be met by the industrial units.

The household industry in Delhi consists of agarbatti, aluminium hangers, electrical and electronic gadgets, sewing machines, assembly of hand tools, candles, cane and bamboo products, brushes and brooms, carpentary, cardboard boxes, packaging, dari and carpet weaving, detergent, dairy products, dry cleaning, embroidery, framing of pictures, pencils and pens, hosiery products, leather belts, paper & stationer items, repair of watches, repair of bicycles, stone engravings, sport goods, tailoring, toys, food processing, jewellery, wool knitting, zari & zardozi.

4.4 URBAN ENVIRONMENT QUALITY

4.4.1 Air Quality

Sources of Air Pollution

The transport, domestic and industrial sectors are the major contributors to the rise in ambient air pollution levels, although certain background sources such as desert dust transported from the Thar desert during dust storms also contribute to the pollution loads. Also, the industrial activities in the peripheral areas of Delhi, including Faridabad, Gurgaon, NOIDA and other towns contribute to the air pollution levels of the city. The past trends in the air pollution levels have been erratic, mainly because of the high share of vehicular pollution. The share of vehicular pollution has increased from 64% to 72% in the last decade. The tremendous increase in the number of vehicles in Delhi has contributed significantly in raising the consumption of petroleum products, mainly petroleum and diesel. However, diesel consumption in the city is not confined alone to vehicles, it is also there in diesel generating sets used in the industry, commercial and domestic sectors. The other two major contributors to air pollution are a fuel combustion in the domestic and industrial activities. Thermal power plants are major part of this activity. The coal based, thermal power plants at Rajghat, Indraprastha and Badarpur are the major power generators in the city.

These include five stations in industrial areas (Nizamuddin, Ashok Vihar, Shahzada Bagh, Najafgarh Road and Shahdara) and four stations in residential areas (Janakpuri, Siri Fort, Sarojini Nagar and Town Hall). The critical parameters for monitoring air pollution levels are SO2, Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) and NOx (Oxides of Nitrogen). However, other parameters including RPM, lead, PAH (Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons) and Ozone are also being monitored. The permissible limits for these parameters have been set by the CPCB and DPCC. The levels, as monitored by the CPCB, are shown in the table given below.

4.4.2 Water Quality Sources of Water Pollution

Waste water is generated by the domestic, industrial and commercial sectors in Delhi. With the increased human activities, there has been a corresponding rise in the amount of waste water generation in the city. Levels of Water Pollution The critical parameters of measuring water pollution are Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Dissolved Oxygen (DO). Another critical parameter which has emerged over the last few years is the faecal coliform. Depletion in DO and increase in BOD levels are prominent features of the stretch of river Yamuna passing through Delhi.

Groundwater quality in Delhi varies with depth and space. Generally the quality of ground water is alkaline with pH ranging from 7.1 to 9.2, chloride content ranges between 21 and 1380 ppm. South of Delhi average chloride content is 250 ppm while in Najafgarh area it is around 1000 ppm. The ground water study done by the NEERI for MoEF revealed high nitrate and fluoride concentrations. High metallic content, particularly manganese and iron have also been observed in the samples collected. The manganese content was found to be 0.1 mg/L against the permissible limit of 0.5-mg/L and iron concentrations of 4.05 mg/L to 0.337 mg/L have been observed. Ground water in the maximum part of the South district is fresh and potable with electrical conductivity ranging from 320 to 4130 micro-mhos/cm at 25` C. Electrical conductivity values more than the permissible limit are observed at Deragaon, Molarbund and at Gadaipur. High values of nitrate are found at four locations i.e. at Gadaipur, at Rajokri and at Jaunapur. In north Ghitorni and Andheri More, Fluoride is more than permissible limits. Except chromium concentrations at one locality, ground water is devoid of pollution by heavy metals. A comparison of ground water quality from 1983 to 2000 shows quality deterioration in the central part of the Chhattarpur basin and in the areas around Nizamuddin. The electrical conductivity of shallow ground water in the Southwest district varies from 630 to 13200 micro-mhos/cm at 25` C. In the detailed Electrical Conductivity map prepared for this district, ground water quality is fresh with electrical conductivity 1000 to 2000 micro-mhos/cm at 25` C. Thus, with over-development of ground water resources in the district, more and more areas are becoming brackish.

Sources of Noise Pollution Delhi has excessive noise. This is generated by the traffic, industry, celebration of festivals, construction activities, diesel generating sets, etc. Levels of Noise Pollution Noise is notified as a pollutant under the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act. Although stringent permissible noise level regulation has been set by the CPCB, noise levels exceed these limits almost everywhere in the city. Monitoring is also done by CPCB and few private agencies. Noise limits have also been prescribed to the automobile manufacturers, domestic appliances, construction equipments and others.

4.5.1 Depletion of resources

Ground Water The abstraction of ground water is more than the estimated availability of ground water. CGWB estimates that 47,945 ha m water is extracted for domestic, industrial and irrigation purposes. Surface Water There is a high loss in the water bodies of Delhi. Most of them have vanished. A Public Interest Litigation has been filed for the misuse and use for alternate purposes of these water bodies. River Yamuna The city of Delhi was set up on the banks of river Yamuna. The river stretches for 22 kms along the city. The river is a source for drinking water, irrigation and others. However, with the combined effect of a modified flow regime due to water holding structures or barrages, withdrawal of water for various purposes and the cumulative discharge of domestic, industrial & agricultural wastewaters has converted Yamuna into an open sewer particularly in the Delhi stretch. As a result, there is severe impact on the bio diversity of the ecosystem and public health. Yamuna Action Plans In 1993, the Union government launched the Yamuna Action Plan (YAP), YAP to tackle the river’s pollution. Its first phase (YAP-I) was scheduled for completion during April, 2002, but an extended phase of YAP-I ran from May 2001 to February 2003. Currently it is passing through its second phase (YAP-II, 2004-08).

Till March 2004, YAP’s total expenditure stood at Rs. 674 crores. After Rs 55 - 75 Crores spent per kilometer on cleaning it up, the river is more polluted than ever. The condition of depletion and degradation of the river is shown in the map below. (Ref: Down to Earth, April, 2005).

Delhi itself contributes to 70% of the pollution load of the entire river and it got only 2.7% of the treatment capacity created under YAP. Further, the YAP has not taken into account the relation between pollution load generated, state-wise, and sewage treatment created. Under YAP’s extended phase, Rs 150 crores was channeled into Delhi, to set up 1146 toilet complexes in 1100 slum clusters and 46 resettlement colonies to tackle the problem of sewage disposal. An analysis by the National River Conservation Directorate shows 60% of these complexes remain unused; they have no water, or are too expensive for people to use, or simply improperly sited or ill maintained.

Despite of all the expenditure and allocations and Supreme Court interventions, the BOD load in the river has been unabated.

- Physical works of STPs at Okhla, Keshopur, Belapur, Wazirabad, Ring Road Trunk

- Public participation and awareness - Institutional strengthening and capacity building of MCD - Public relations Forest Cover The degradation, misuse and insensitive treatment of the forest cover in Delhi sums up the threat to not only the environment but to the overall sustainability of the city. The Ridge area of Delhi has degraded tremendously due to by roads, buildings, traffic, garbage dumping, lopping of trees and grazing by livestock. Mining and quarrying activities in the past have degraded the South-Central Ridge causing enormous loss to biodiversity. Although as reported by the Deptt of Forests there has been an overall increase in the forest cover in the last 10 years, degradation of the forests in some pockets of the city has increased. An ecologically important location, the Asola Wildlife sanctuary, was established to protect and conserve the city’s flora and fauna. However, this sanctuary is again under threat with the proposed scientific land fill at the Bhatti Mines. The Delhi Ridge was once inhabited by leopards, deers, antelopes, wolves, jackals, hog deer, etc which have vanished over time. Air Environment The alarming levels of SPM which are way beyond the permissible levels are a serious area of concern. Even the RPM levels were exceeding the permissible limits. Although the SOx & NOx levels are just within the permissible limits, the measures to control and manage these have to be sustained. Environmental Health The city suffers from all the health related problems caused by a polluted atmosphere. High occurrence of respiratory infections, heart problems, sickness from water and vector-born diseases and other diseases because of exposure to ambient and indoor pollutants and inappropriate disposal practices of municipal solid waste have become the way of life in the city. Poor living conditions, constant exposure to the pollutants, untreated wastes has resulted in high incidence of diseases like diarrhea, hepatitis, dengue and others. Green House Gases Delhi is releasing around 16 million tones of CO2 emissions, mainly contributed by vehicles, power and residential sectors. This quantity if unabated could be a major threat to stabilizing Climate Change.

CCHHAAPPTTEERR -- 55 LAND MANAGEMENT & URBAN GROWTH

5.1 INTRODUCTION

Delhi is located strategically on two National Highways (NH-2 & NH-8) that connect Delhi to Kolkata and Mumbai. NH-2 & NH-8 are two prime vertices of the Golden Quadrilateral Corridor of the National Highways Development Project. The city attracts a migrant population of 645 per day from various part of the country, mainly from the northern region. In order to control the unprecedented growth of Delhi, the approach of ‘planned decentralization’ has been suggested as per the MPD-1961 & 81 and NCR Plan 2001 & 21. This chapter deals with the physical growth trends and planning efforts undertaken in Delhi. An attempt has been made to understand future growth trends and issues related to urban development. The approach at the NCR level is presented in the box below:

5.2 CONSTITUENTS OF DELHI

The National Capital Territory, Delhi (NCTD) area consists of the following three municipal areas- (i) New Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) area at the core. This is the

imperial Delhi spread over an area of 42.74 km2 which was established in 1911. It comprises of government Offices & residential areas and commercial nodes with wide roads, parks and open spaces etc. The NDMC area is administered by an 11 member council comprising 3 MLA’s; five government officers and 2 civilians nominated by Central Government; and a chairperson appointed by Central Government. The Council reports directly to Central Government.

(ii) Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) area, occupying 1397 sq. kms, or

most of the area of the city. The MCD further comprises the following areas: • Old Delhi comprising of the walled city (Shahajahanabad) and

densely built up areas between the Red Fort and the New Delhi Railway Station on the periphery;

The NCR Plan 2021 has proposed a six tier settlement system i.e. Metro Centre, Regional Centre, Sub-Regional Centre, Service Centre, Central Village and Basic Village. Seven metro centers (Faridabad-Ballabhgarh; Gurgaon-Manesar, Gaziabad-Loni, NOIDA, Sonepat-Kundli, Greater NOIDA, Meerut) are proposed as potential growth nodes to attract capital functions and activities and help in population dispersal from the national capital. Because of their special functional status and size, a very high level of physical, social and economic infrastructure (better than that in the capital) is required to be developed within these towns/complexes. The respective participating states and their agencies would not only be required to create the necessary infrastructure themselves in these Metro Centers but also facilitate the private sector investment therein.

• Civil lines along the Ridge and Delhi University area in the North with large plots and open spaces;

• New colonies, which have come up in last 50 years on the Southern and Western sides;

• New development across the Yamuna river comprising of Shahadara in the North, Patparganj & Mayur Vihar in the South;

• 728 squatter settlements, spread over an area of 9.68 km2 all over the NCT area.

• Around 185 villages in outer Delhi area and 135 urban villages characterized by haphazard development with marginal municipal services etc. (outer Delhi is included in MCD limits and accounted for in the MCD area).

The MCD is administered by an elected council comprising ward councilors from each of the 137 wards in the area. (refer Section 13, “Institutional Arrangement”). The MCD reports directly to the Central Government.

(iii) Delhi Cantonment area between the Airport and the NDMC area, spread over an area of 42.97 km2. The cantonment area is administered by the Delhi Cantonment Board (DCB), which reorts directly to the Central Government (Ministry of Defence).

In 1999, the urban area of Delhi covered 701.62 Sq. Kms (Refer Table 5.1 and 5.2; and Figure 5.1).

The development status of the city has been revised with respect to Existing Linear Development; Development in Special areas; Unauthorised / Unorganised Colonies; Housing Supply & Demand; Planned & Unplanned Commercial & Industrial areas and ecologically sensitive areas.

5.3.1 Influence Zone along Major MRTS and Major Corridors

The growth of Delhi over the years has been on a ring and radial pattern, with reliance on road based public transport. The development envisaged by previous plans was poly-nodal with a hierarchy of commercial centres located on either ring or radial roads. The proposed MRTS network has been acting as a development catalyst and has sizeable impact on the existing structure of the city.

5.3.2 Development Profile along Major Corridors

The road network can be categorized into four types i.e. Arterial roads, sub arterial roads, minor arterial road and collector roads. About 1100 km of road length are provided with right of way of 30m and above. The road network comprising of ring and radial pattern has C.P. as a focal point with Mathura road, Lal Bhadur Shastri Marg, Aurobindo Marg, Rao Tula Ram Marg, Gurgaon Road (NH 8) Patel road, Shankar road, Rohtak Road, G.T Road (NH1), Loni road, Shahadra road, NH 24 bypass forming the radials while Mahatma Gandhi Road (Ring Road), Outer Ring road, Noida road- Bund road forming the prominent rings. These radial and ring roads serve as major arterials to carry bulk of traffic in the city.

These major corridors are high intensity development zones with planned and unplanned development along them. The predominant developments along the major corridors are presented in 4 & Figure 5.2. Table 5.4: Development Intensity along Major Corridors of Delhi

• Environmental degradation because of filling of water bodies and low lying areas for commercial uses such as petrol pump, Transport training institute, Sarai Kale Khan ISBT.

NH-24 (Delhi-Lucknow): Major Corridor Connecting Important business centres of Uttar Pradesh to National Capital

The length of NH-24 in NCTD is around 15km from Ghazipur to NH-2 intersection at IP Park. It was at Ghazipur which is a major fish & chicken market; and fruit & vegetable market of Delhi. It also has major garbage dumping site. It mainly traverses through haphazard development within urban villages and Patparganj & Mayur Vihar society complexes. The proposed site for common wealth games is also in proximity to this corridor.

• The corridor passes through low lying area and the development in the Yamuna Bed. It has unorganized development in villages such as Khicripur, Pandav Nagar etc.

• The corridor has been encroached by JJ clusters. These clusters are devoid of basic infrastructure facilities leading high interaction with the corridor.

• Low lying areas along the corridor are used for dumping of HH and construction wastes.

NH-1 (Delhi to Kanpur: Major Corridor traverses through industrial nodes of Delhi and UP

The length of NH-1 from Samli border to TP Nagar Border is around 40 km. It traverses through Industrial areas (Wazirpur, Jahangirpuri, Badli in North and Jhilmil & Shahadara in East), Institutional area (Delhi University, IP University, Old Secretariat), Resettlement Colonies (Babarpur, Saleempuri, Seemapuri et.al)

and commercial development. Most of the predominant historical monuments are also accessible through this corridor. It has intense commercial development near Rajokri border with large open spaces due to the Airport and cantonment areas. It connects urban periphery to New Delhi and Old Delhi Areas.

• Its proximity to the Airport leads to high interaction with Cargo and goods traffic.

• It is also connected to institutional areas of Delhi and traverses through intense residential development, prone to landuse transformation.

Outer and Inner Ring Road

The ring road is of 75 km in length connecting institutional and industrial areas in the north to residential and industrial area in the west; and historical sites & institutional area in south and east.

• Ring road has now become part of the city transportation network with high intensity commercial and industrial development.

Institutional Corridor

The institutional corridor of the city is of around 45km in length and traverses through Pusa road, Central Secretariat Complex, AIIMS, IIT, CWC and JNU areas

• It has experienced transformation of residential areas to institutional and commercial areas --- eg. Green Park; Hauzkhas; Pusa road etc. These Landuse transformations have led to pressure on physical infrastructure of the city.

MRTS Corridors

MRTS has been planned to cover the spread of Delhi and its peripheral area. The metro station complexes at 2km distance are nodes for commercial development.

• These nodes are vulnerable to encroachment by unauthorized commercial development if not planned along with schemes for corridor development.

There is a large proportion of underused land with number of vacant sites or unutilized built areas within the central city. A majority of these are government lands having mostly low density (2 story structures) and old housing. As per the study, government is able to provide housing to only 30-35% of its employees within these areas. The gross densities in these areas are around 160 PPH against 350 PPH in the adjoining areas namely Safdarjang Enclave extn; Munirka; Bhikaji Cama commercial complex.

As per the provision of MPD-2001, the gross density of residential areas should be 350 PPH or 78 DU/ha with FAR of 33% against the existing FAR of 15%; whereas in commercial areas ground coverage of 25% and FAR of 100% is permitted. MPD-2001 & 2021 have recommended comprehensive planning for improvement and redevelopment of these areas in order to make the best use of land resources (Refer Figure 5.3).

Figure 5.3 : Low Density areas in Delhi 5.5 STATUS OF SPECIAL AREAS

The special area has been divided into three parts namely (i) Walled City; (ii) Walled City Extension and (iii) Karol Bagh. These are characterized by a mix of different land uses and have similarities in compact built form, narrow circulation space and low rise high density developments mainly accommodating residential, commercial (both retail or wholesale) and industrial uses. Therefore it is important that these areas, which are already established with identified uses, continue to play an active economic role (Refer Figure 5.4).

(a) Walled City Area: The traditional walled city area is a core of the

business district. The area is prone to commercialization, particularly with improved accessibility due to the MRTS. Around 20% of the wholesale trade enterprises (37000 enterprises) of urban Delhi are located in the walled city accounting for 12% of the employment.

(b) Walled City Extension: Pahar Ganj, Sadar Bazar, Rosanna Road and

their adjoining areas are called as walled city extension. These are old congested built-up areas mainly with mixed land use. For upgradation of the environment in these areas minimum level of infrastructure and parking are to be provided.

(c) Karol Bagh Area: Karol Bagh area has been one of the important

commercial centres outside the walled city. The land use transformation

from residential to commercial has led to increase in parking demand, reduction in available road width and pressure on other physical infrastructure. Therefore, this area is due for comprehensive redevelopment on the basis of mixed use concept with provision of parking and up gradation of facilities and utilities.

5.6 UNAUTHORIZED & UNORGANIZED COLONIES The unplanned areas of the city include Slum and JJ Clusters, Resettlement colonies, unauthorized colonies and urban villages. Slum and JJ clusters have been discussed in detail in chapter 6. The section below presents in detail the status of unauthorized colonies and urban villages.

Unauthorized Colonies

The large scale land acquisition by DDA, unregulated growth of urban fringes and housing shortage are the genesis of unauthorized colonies in Delhi. There are around 1432 unauthorized colonies1 providing shelter to around 30 lakh people. In the past unauthorized colonies have being regularized only twice in

Affluent unauthorized colonies included Sanik Farm; Anant Ram Dairy (near RK Puram), Mahendru Enclave (near Model town); other colonies include Zakirnagar, Jamianagar, Anand Parbat, Khanpur Extension, Viswas Nagar, Bawana, Madanpur Khader etc (Figure 5.4). Around 1000 unauthorized colonies are on private land developed by builders.

The infrastructure status in these colonies is marginally better than slums. No metalled road exists in any of these colonies, nor is there a provision of sewer lines and other facilities. Urban Development Department, NCTD has been putting up various models for regularizing these against the resident’s demand of regularization without any charges (on the line of earlier regularization in 1977). The UDD proposals are presented in Table 5..

Table 5.6: Unauthorized Colonies Regularization Model

Facilities Charges (Rs per m2)

Power Rs 6600 Per KV

Water Rs 220 per m2

Sewerage Rs 355 per m2

Roads and Drains Rs 400 per m2

Total Fixed Charge Rs 1060 per m2

The cost for regularization of 100 sqm of plot is Rs 1 lakh. Delhi Government had invited application from residents associations for all unauthorized colonies in October 2004, through a public notice. The applicants were asked to submit their area plans. 1153 applications were received out of 1432 unauthorized colonies.

5.7 URBAN VILLAGES

165 urban villages and 52 census towns form part of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCTD). These urban villages have undergone significant physical and functional transformation related to their specific location. Villages are characterized by a mix of different land uses and have similarities in compact built-up form, narrow circulation space and high density developments. These mainly accommodate residential, commercial, industrial and mixed uses. These areas, established with identified uses, continue to play an active economic role.

5.8 STATUS OF SHELTER IN CITY

Urban Delhi accommodated about 11.5 lakh households in different housing developments in 1981. The Housing shortage at the beginning of second plan (MPD-1981-2001) period had been estimated at about 3 lakh dwelling units which included (i) Squatter and shelterless, (ii) Families sharing houses in congested built-up areas; (iii) houses requiring immediate replacement. Therefore it had been estimated that 16.2 lakh DUs were required for the period of 1981-2001 as shown in Table 5..

As against this, Table 5. indicates the actual housing development in Delhi until 1995. This indicates that for the period of the second Master Plan (1981-2001), in fact DDA was able to provide land and housing for only 34 per cent of target.

DDA and cooperatives (42.5%) met their share of 43% and the site & services plots resettlement sites (23.9%) correspond to the 25%, but the allotment of plots for individual families (31.7%) significantly exceeded the 17% provision.

5.9 STATUS OF INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT

As per economic survey of Delhi 2001-02, there were about 1,29,000 industrial units in Delhi in 1998, against 85050 units in 1991. An average unit employed 9 workers while 30% of units employed less than 4 workers. Units related to textiles products constitute the largest number followed by repair services and electrical machinery. Table 5.9 shows the growth of industrial units and employment.

i) Existing Planned Industrial Areas: Out of 1.3 lakhs industrial units in Delhi, only around 25000-30,000 are located in planned industrial areas (Refer Figure 5.5 & 5.6). The existing industrial estates are Bawana; Narela; Badali; Mangolpuri; Okhla; Patparganj and Shahdara. These industrial areas were developed in the 70s and over the years have deteriorated considerably in terms of physical infrastructure. The industrial estates in the city are owned by three agencies- Delhi State Industrial Development Corporation (DSIDC), Delhi Government Industries Department and DDA. These industrial estates have various problems such as pot-holed roads, overflowing garbage bins, lack of water supply, improper electricity installations and absence of banks, common facility centres and post office. All the 28 industrial estates are plagued with the following problems. • Poor Water Supply: Water is supplied in these industrial estates for less

than half hour per day leading to diminishing quality of the produce. • Bad Roads: The poor road connectivity to industrial estates has made

industries withdraw from the area, leading to low occupancy and poor cost recovery. Bawana industrial estate is spread over 1900 acres of land but only around 10 per cent plots are occupied.

• Garbage Disposal: Garbage is littered on the roads and overflows out of the

dustbins. The collection system is unreliable. • Freehold Issue: There is a duality in the policy of the centre and the state.

While DDA gives plot on freehold basis, the Delhi government still has a leasehold policy which does not give full ownership of land to the unit owner.

• Encroachment: Several plots are encroached by slum dwellers. The estate

manager does not have the power to evict these encroachers. ii) Unplanned Industrial Area: A survey of residential areas with industrial concentration has revealed that only seven qualify clearly for regularization (as per the criteria of more than 70% industrial use). The remaining can get regularized only after considering godowns, commercial shops and commercial godowns as industrial activity (Refer Table 5.10) Table 5.10: Percentage breakup of Unregularised Industrial Areas in Delhi

As per the Table above the maximum industrial concentration is in Shalimar village which has 80.70 per cent of the area under industries. Areas that do not qualify even after the inclusion of godowns include Tikri Kalan, Prahladpur, Viswas Nagar, Tri Nagar and Nangli Sakrawati. Two areas have more than 85 per cent industrial concentration (GT Karnal Road-80.64% and Kirti Nagar-95.83%) but do not qualify because the land area is less than four hectare land (Refer Figure 5.5)

5.10 ECOLOGICALLY SENSITIVE AREAS Besides Delhi’s magnificent built heritage (discussed in detail in Chapter 7), there are natural and historical landscape features (Yamuna River Corridor, Delhi Ridge) and the associated protected areas of natural wildlife (Jasola Wildlife Sanctuary) that characterize the urban form of Delhi. The detail status of Yamuna River Corridor and Jasola Wildlife Sanctuary & Delhi Ridge are discussed below.

Areas Characteristics of Ecologically Sensitive areas

YAMMUNA RIVER CORRIDOR

The river front in Delhi has lost its potential heritage, religious, pulic amenity and recreational value. It is surrounded by unplanned and haphazard development of villages and JJ clusters in North; by Thermal Power Plants, Aksardham Temple complex, Commonwealth Game village etc in central part; in the south by Julenagaon; Taimur Nagar, Kalindikunj etc. The problem areas associated with river corridor in NCTD are listed below: • Though an interstate water sharing treaty exists, there is lack of

an effective inter state river basin hydro-policy regime. This results in upstream pollution from agricultural pesticides and sub-optimal water extraction practices.

• The presence of extensive, high density areas of informal low income housing generating large volumes of untreated sewage and solid waste that is discharged into the river.

• A recent Supreme Court Order stipulates that industrial effluent must be treated to a prescribed standard before being discharged into the Yamuna. Making this order operational, through effective implementation, enforcement and monitoring will be critical to the environmental sustainability of the Yamuna.

• Within the context of the Yamuna Action Plan, DDA has proposed to change the use of 260 hectare of land in the central tranche to public use.

JASOLA WILDLIFE AREA AND THE RIDGE

The sustainability of the sensitive ecological habitat of the Jasola wildlife area will also require the formulation and implementation of a special case integrated area strategy that would be likely to include Delhi Ridge as the environmental context and buffer zone to the sanctuary. The problems associated with this area are as follows: • Temporary incompatible use permissions granted for storage,

assembly, temporary accommodation (e.g. exhibition related activities) have left behind residual materials. This despoils the area and renders it environmentally vulnerable.

• Incremental quarry extraction activities have scared the ridge; and (post working) designation as wasteland by the DDA in its land-use plans has consolidated this abuse.

It is imperative to state that the development of Delhi Ridge and Yamuna City Regional Park System has to be comprehensively looked into to plan for better physical environment & ecological system of the city.

5.11 LAND DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT

A brief summary of the roles and responsibilities of central and state government agencies in land management are presented below.

Chapter – 5 Land Management & Urban Growth

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

5-15

Department/Agency Roles and Responsibilities

Land Record Management, DDA

• Deals with Nazul-I lands transferred to DDA from Delhi Improvement Trust and Nazul-II lands acquired under the policy of large scale acquisition for development and disposal of land by DDA after 1957.

• The functions of the land management department are to acquire land, allot sites for petrol pumps and gas godowns, maintain land records, protect land from encroachment and enforce Master plan section against misuse. DDA has setup six field zones for the purpose of protection of land.

Land and Building Department/Revenue Department

• The revenue department acquires land on behalf of the DDA/MCD/Slum department. The demand for land acquisition is placed by DDA to the land building department, which acquires the land for the DDA after getting approval from the LG; and after acquisition, places the same at the disposal of DDA, under section 12 of DDA act

L&E Department of MCD

• The L&E department of MCD deals with records of land and properties of the colonies/villages within the jurisdiction of MCD. The department also deals with collection of property tax and monitors its activities through the 12 MCD zones.

L&DO GoI, UDPA • The department deals with the maintenance of land record of the properties of the GoI. The activities of construction and maintenance are with CPWD.

In NCTD area most of the lands are owned by the DDA, L&DO and central governments. Land under state ownership is limited and sectorally owned. Agricultural land is mainly privately owned and owners pay agriculture tax to the revenue department. However the private sector primarily comprises of individuals; families; trusts; institutions; families; trusts; institutions and firms/companies, which own or seek land or space built on land (refer Table 5.).

5.12 EFFORTS OF PLANNED DEVELOPMENT

In order to encourage planned development in the city, the DDA prepared master plans for the NCTD Area. Various plans prepared for Delhi over the years include (i) Lutyen’s Plan for the New Delhi (the imperial capital) now NDMC area-1911; (ii) Interim General Plan for Delhi prepared by the Town Planning Organisation (TPO) in 1956; (iii) Master Plan for Delhi (MPD) with perspective of 1981 (based on Land use inventory TPO, 1958) prepared by DDA in 1962; (iv) Master Plan for Delhi with perspective of 2001 prepared by DDA in 1990; (v) National Capital Regional Plan (NCRP) with perspective of 2001 prepared in 1989; (vi) Draft Master Plan Delhi with perspective of 2021, prepared by DDA in 2005 (notification awaited) and (vii) National Capital Regional Plan (NCRP) with

perspective of 2021 prepared in 2005. The salient features of these plans are discussed in the subsequent section.

5.12.1 Master Plan for Delhi (1961-81)

MPD-1981 has divided city into 8 planning divisions and planning districts with an objective to make these self contained in employment and community facilities. As per MPD-1981, these divisions were proposed to have populations ranging from 3 to 7 lakhs. Hence each division had 2-3 district centres, which are composite retail shopping centres with commercial and service uses. As per the plan, total land available for urbanization in 1981, was about 440 km2. Beyond this has the “Agricultural Green Belt” which was to be preserved for agricultural use. The proposed activities as per Master Plan (1961-81) are presented in Table 5.12 & Figure 5.7.

Table 5.12: Proposed Activities as per Master Plan (1961-81)

Land Uses Activities Acquisition of Land and Development

• In order to contain the likely population of about 6.0 million by 1981, the following additional land areas were proposed to be developed under various uses: Residential: 30,000 acres; Commercial: 1900 acres; Industrial: 4800 acres; Government: 500 acres; Recreational: 25000 acres

Residential • Medium and High Density residential development proposed in the planning division A & B (Old Wall City area & its Extension).

• Average Residential Density ranges from 81 PPA in West Yamuna Canal area to 235 PPA in old walled city area. The average gross density in the Master Plan is about 97 PPA.

• Redensification of low density areas such as Lodhi colony; RK Puram, Motibagh and laxmibai nagar.

• Developing Low income housing-1,50,000 units; government housing-1,10,000 units and private housing-4,85,000 units

Commercial • The Commercial area as per MPD 1981 works out to be 0.48 acres/1000 population.

• The hierarchies of commercial area proposed were Central Business District (CBD); District Shopping Centre; Community Shopping; local shopping and convenient shopping.

• Development of commercial area of 565 acres. Slum Improvements & Redevelopment

• 20 projects were to be developed upto 1981 for slum improvements. These slum areas are Kotla Mubarakpur; Sui Walan; Kucha Pati Ram; Sarai Rohilla; Qadam Sharif; Shadipur Khampur, Ajmeri Gate etc.

Industrial Area • Areas proposed for industrial development. The details are given as part of Table 5..

Recreational Areas

• It has been proposed to develop 25000 acres of land for recreational use.

• It was proposed to provide active recreational facilities such as open air theatres, libraries, museums, swimming pools, terraced gardens, landscaped vistas and botanical gardens.

Plan for Rural Delhi

• The rural towns proposed for the location of light and medium industries are Nangloi Jat, Bawana, Palam and Najafgarh

• It was proposed to provide 17 local shopping centres for each cluster of villages (within radius of 3 miles from every village), 6 district shopping centres for bigger village groups (within radius of 5 miles from every village) and 3 mandis in more central location (Palam; Khera kalan and Kanjhawala).

MPD-81 proposed to increase the residential use to 44% from 18% in 1961. However the residential use as per the MPD-61 was 30% which is far below the proposed use. Other uses such as recreational area, as proposed in MPD-81 were 24%, which got limited to 12%. The area under commercial land use was proposed to be 2% but it exceeded to 3.8%. Similarly, the area under Industrial land use was proposed to be increased to 5% but only 3.5% of the area was under this land use in 1981 (Refer 6 & 6 (a)).

Other departures from the proposed master plan measures include:

• As proposed the enhancement of existing CBD in MPD-81 did not take place. Connaught place & its extension and commercial areas in the walled city and its extension continues to function as CBD with all the associated problems of parking and traffic congestion etcl.

• As per MPD-81, all non-conforming uses were to be shifted in stages to conforming areas; but no areas with non confirming uses were shifted out.

• MPD-81 proposed industrial areas consisting mainly of flatted factories; light industries and extensive industries but no flatted factory area was developed except for Jhandewalan area.

• MPD-81 estimated around 20000 informal sector units in 1981 which is limited to 15%. Moreover plan did not contain any specific proposal for integration of unorganized sector in development schemes.

• MPD-81 targeted to construct government housing, Low cost housing and private housing as per details mentioned in Table 5.11. During the two decades, only 5.43 lakhs houses had been constructed against target of 7.47 lakh.

• MPD-81 had proposed 15 district centres out of which only 3 had been developed in 1981 (Nehru Place; Rajendra Place and Bhikaji Cama Place.

• Two wholesale markets namely Fruit & Vegetable Market (Okhla) and Iron & Steel Market (Jhandewalan) had been shifted out up to 1981; and two cycle & truck accessories markets were partially shifted. Most of the other markets continued to grow further in the walled city creating, further congestion.

5.12.3 Master Plan for Delhi (1981-01)

MPD-2001, was based on the basic premise of Balanced Regional Development, which emphasizes restrictive policy of employment generation. The main guidelines for this policy were: (i) only such new Central Government Offices which directly serve the Ministries of the Government of India be located in Delhi; (ii) Industrial Growth in Delhi be restricted to small scale and less labour intensive and (iii) Legal & Fiscal measures to restrict employment and distributive trade.

The MPD-2001 projected a population of 12.8 million by 2001 for the entire NCT. However, the plan recommended to restrict the population to 11 million in NCT and divert the remaining 0.2 million to selected towns in the NCR. The population of NCT was however 13.4 million in 2001 Refer Figure 5.8.

(i) Spatial Strategies

The Master plan has come up with strategies for each of the constituents of the NCTD and DMA area. The proposed strategies as per Master Plan (1981-01) are presented in Table 5.15.

The land use plan 2021 has been prepared based on (i) the policies enunciated for different urban activities; (ii) requirement of additional social and physical infrastructure; (iii) Transportation and work centres; (iv) restructuring of land uses along the MRTS corridors. In order to control development; the areas have been designated as one of the 27 use zones. These zones have been classified into 10 categories2 as shown in Figure 5.9.

MPD-2021 projected a population of 23.0 million by 2021 for the entire NCT. However, the plan recommended accommodating 11.4 million people in zone A to H; and 3.9 million in Dwarka, Rohini phase-III, IV & V and Narela; and diverting the remaining 8.0 million in the planned new urban extensions. MPD-2021 is in draft stage the detailed provisions and development strategy suggested in the plan will be presented once it is finalized.

5.13 PROVISIONS OF NCR PLAN 2001 & 21

Five towns were proposed in the Master Plan (2001-21) as DMA towns in the Delhi Metropolitan Area (DMA). These include Ghaziabad, Faridabad, Gurgaon, Kundli and Loni. A total of 3.5-lakh population was assigned by the Master Plan to these towns for the year 2011. Besides, specialized economic activities were

5.14 ISSUES IN LAND & GROWTH MANAGEMENT

Some of the major issues emerge from the above analysis are presented below:

• Increasing gap between demand and supply of housing and infrastructure: The growth of unauthorized colonies and JJ clusters clearly indicate the housing status of the city. Consistently, targets for housing provision have not been met. Moreover, the poor have borne the brount of the shortfall. Overall, Around 5 lakh houses are to be constructed to fulfill past back logs, over and above the future demand of 20 lakh houses by 2021.

• Over crowding, haphazard development without basic services: There are

728 JJ clusters; 1700 unauthorized colonies and 165 urban villages accommodating around 60 lakh population. Of these, barely 25% of the population has access to physical infrastructure.

• Encroachments on agricultural land and urban villages: The urbanization

area is expanding in an adhoc manner, often into the green area. Due to lax development regulations and control, rural areas are falling prey to unauthorized development. Original land owners have parceled their holdings and sold these at high prices to builders/developers. Urban villages have been over-run with haphazard developments

• Exploitation of Land for unauthorized development: Large portion of

urban land in NCT is owned by government generally for public, community and government uses. Without programmed use and efforts for protection, these lands get easily encroached by both marginal groups and unregistered land speculators. This is further aggravated by insufficient official provision of land for various uses – be it residential, commercial or industrial.

• Non-Conforming Land uses: Around 1 lakh industries are located in non-

conforming areas as per MPD. Efforts for relocation have failed due to the

5-23

inaccessibility to work-centre of the relocation site; lack of infrastructure; security of tenure & assets and affordability of the owner.

• Lack of Linkage of Physical Planning Strategy with Financial Planning:

Successful physical planning should respond to economic realities; and support broader financial goals and strategies for the city. The link between these aspects, while strong in the first Master Plan, seems to have weakened substantially in subsequent plans. Failure of implementation has aggravated the situation further.

CHAPTER - 6 URBAN POOR AND SLUM

6.1 INTRODUCTION

Urban Poverty and Slums are the most critical problems of urban development today. In Delhi too, they are a serious issue. The various dimensions of poverty and slums have been discussed in detail in this chapter. This chapter has been divided into three sections. The first section discusses the poverty profile of the city, the characteristics of the poor population and poverty alleviation programmes. The profile of slums / JJ Clusters, with respect to their location, distribution, growth, infrastructure status and requirements, processes of slum development in the city and the slum development programmes by the Slum Department of the MCD and DDA, is discussed in the second section. The last section summarizes the issues related to poverty and slums.

6.2 POVERTY PROFILE OF DELHI

The Planning Commission estimates the proportion and number of poor based on the projection of minimum needs and effective consumption. Such a projection is based on the norm of 2100 calorie per capita per day consumption for an urban area. The calorie norms are invariably expressed in monetary terms that change with respect to weighted commodity indices of the consumer price index. The percentage of people below poverty line (BPL) stood at 49.61% for Delhi in 1973-74. The

figure has been declining steadily to 26.22% in 1983; 16.4% in 1991 and 14.69% in 1993-94. The percentage of people below poverty line declined to 10.02% in 2001. Table 6.1 presents the zone wise BPL population.

6.3 SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE OF POOR

The socio-economic profile of the segment of population categorized as poor is of strategic importance for both planning purposes, and for managing the habitat and its environmental upgradation and improvement. However, comprehensive data is not available for the whole of Delhi, although generalizations can be made on the following parameters based on data available from the few available surveys and studies. It is important to keep in perspective however that inhabitants of LIG / EWS areas are not a homogenous segment.

(a) Income and Expenditure: The average total monthly income per

household ranges from Rs. 1500-2500 among the poor. The expenditure of these families is around 5-10% more than their incomes. The per capita monthly income and expenditure is Rs. 245 & Rs. 423 respectively. Poor households, therefore, are increasingly dependent upon loans from the local moneylenders. The monthly income of around 25-30% households is above Rs 1500 and around 45-50% households is below Rs 1000.

(b) Access to Housing: Housing is a basic need of the poor. Most of the poor

do not have access to secure land tenure. 85% of the poor are squatters, and are vulnerable to frequent eviction. 6% of the poor live in rented accommodation and have to pay a substantial portion of their income for rent. Most importantly, such rental quarters do not have even basic infrastructure facilities. The quality of life led by these people is extremely poor.

(c) Occupation Profile of Poor: 41% of these families work as casual

labourers, as most of them are unskilled. However, one-third of the poor also work in the service sector and only 20-25 % is self-employed. Therefore, nearly 52% of the poor households do not have access to a dependable occupation and secure incomes.

(d) Migration Status and Poor: Migration characteristics have also been

included as most of the poor are migrants from rural areas, who come to the city in search of employment. In Delhi, 38% of the total poor have migrated to the city for employment purposes.

(e) Access to Infrastructure: The infrastructure facilities that have been

covered are water and sources of energy for the urban poor. A majority of the poor families (47%) have access to water from community sources. 16% of the families do not have any definite source of water. With respect to source of light, nearly 30% of the families depend on kerosene lamps.

(f) Pavement Dwellers: Around 1 Lakh homeless people constitute another

component of the poor in Delhi. They are mostly found in the Walled City or its surrounding areas and generally sleep on the pavements. There are around 10 night shelters located at Azadpur, Subzi Mandi, Paharganj, Jhandewalan, Red Fort, Old Delhi Railway Station, Azad Market and Roshanara road. The night shelters operated by MCD provide accommodation to only male dwellers.

6.4 POVERTY ALLEVIATION PROGRAMMES

Swaranajyanti Saw Rozgar Yojana (SJSRY) is the main poverty alleviation programme of the government, which was launched in 1997 after merging the NRY (Nehru Rozgar Yojna), PMIUPEP and Urban Basic Services Programme (UBSP). The programme aims not only at economic emancipation of people living below the poverty line but also an improvement in their living environment. The details of the programme are being given in Box 1.

Box 1: Salient Features of SJSRY The programme seeks to provide gainful employment to the urban unemployed and underemployed poor, through encouraging the setting up of self – employment ventures or provision of wage employment. It relies on creation of suitable community structures and delivery of inputs through urban local bodies. It is funded on a 75:25 basis between the centre and the state. It consists of two special components of: • Urban Self-Employment Programme (USEP): It has 3 components of self-

employment: setting up of micro-enterprise; setting up of group micro- enterprise under Development of Women and Children in Urban Areas (DWCUA) and training for skills up-gradation of beneficiaries.

• Urban Wage-Employment Programme (UWEP): The programme aims to provide

wage employment by utilizing labour to construct socially and economically useful public assets.

• Special emphasis is given on formation of Community based structures like CDS,

NHGs and NCs. 6.5 SHELTER OPTIONS

The poor typically inhabit unplanned or semi-planned developments. In Delhi these are classified as (a) Notified Slums in Old Walled City area; (b) Resettlement Colonies; (c) Relocated JJ Clusters and (d) JJ Clusters or Squatter settlements. The section below describes the characteristics of these areas.

6.5.1 Old Walled City Area In Delhi, areas designated or notified as slums under the act are generally located in the Walled City and its adjoining environs. There are 319 katras in the Walled City area with about 3,000 buildings or properties. Out of these, 365 properties have been identified as dangerous and therefore require resettlement of inhabitants. In addition, there are 400 properties, which are with the Evacuee Property Cell of Land and Building Department of Delhi Government.

6.6 SQUATTER SETTLEMENTS / JJ CLUSTERS The squatter settlements are encroachments on mainly public land. As such these are illegal clusters (JJCs) and are devoid of any legal entitlements. However, efforts have been made by the government to extend basic social and environmental services to them (Refer Box 2)

Box 2: Urban Poor and Type of Shelter The category of the urban poor mainly comprises of the inhabitants in JJ clusters / squatter settlements. These inhabitants are service providers, which includes domestic help, hawkers and vendors, low paid workers in the industrial, commercial and trade / business sectors etc.

The socio-economic constraints on access to income pose constraints to food and other basic necessities including shelter. As a result, they are constrained to live in the worst kind of settlements. Substandard housing is not only the consequence of poverty but also policy and financial constraints imposed on the government departments and agencies to provide adequate services for the poor. However, the type of housing they are constrained to choose is largely the consequence of poverty.

6.6.1 Location and Distribution of JJ Clusters

JJ clusters are scattered all over the city. Generally they are situated on the vacant land along railway lines, roads, drains and river embankments and also vacant spaces near residential, industrial and commercial complexes. Around 55 per cent of squatters are near the residential areas and 40% along the road berms (Table 2).

It is clear from Table 6.3 that around 70% of clusters have less than 500 JJ’s. This percentage has remained constant from 1991-2001. The sharp decline in the number of JJ clusters (1994-2001) is attributed to large scale relocation of JJs since 1999.

Some of the major areas with concentrations of slums in various pockets of Delhi are presented in Figure 6.2 and Box 3.

Box 3: Areas with Concentration of JJ Clusters

The spread of JJ clusters ranges from a plot of 0.4 acres with 8 JJs to JJCs as large as 50 acres with 10,000 households & 45000 population. The average number of JJ per acre comes to 200 with 193 being the lowest (Nazafgarh area) and 206 the highest (Gole Market and Kalkaji areas). The average area of JJ is 20m2. Some of the major area with such concentrations are given below A) HIGH CONCENTRATION: a. Minto Road/Gole Market/Matia Mahal (129 clusters, 43388 JJs, 215.08 acres)-NDMC

6.6.2 Growth of Squatter Settlements

The squatter settlements or jhuggi jhopari clusters (JJC) assume strategic importance as far as issues of unorganized settlements are concerned. As mentioned in Table 6.4 , in 1951 Delhi had 12749 jhuggi jhopris (JJs) scattered over 199 clusters. By 1973 the number of JJs had reached 98483 spread over 1373 clusters. The resettlement scheme pursued in 1962-77, with a

concentrated effort in 1975-77 resulted in the resettlement of 2.4 lakh JJs in different parts of Delhi. In 1977 only 20000 JJ households remained to be relocated. But, in 1983 the number of squatter households had gone upto 1.13 lakhs. In 2001 the JJ clusters had declined to (729 from 1080 in 1994) due to relocation of around 300 clusters from Gautampuri, Kingsway Camp, Ashok Vihar, AIIMS and Hauz Khas etc.

6.6.4 Access to Infrastructure in Slums/JJ Clusters

Water and sanitation facilities in these unorganized colonies, particularly JJ clusters, is poor. Only 21 % of colonies are covered with piped water supply and 10% are covered by sanitation. Table 6.6 presents a satisfactory level of infrastructure availability in unplanned settlements, but these facilities are non- functional in around 75-80% of the settlements. The average population served by one PSP ranges from 250-300 against the standard of 150. Moreover, average waiting time at PSP is 20-30 minutes. Around 85-90% of JJ clusters did not have even community toilets, forcing habitants to defecate in the open near the water bodies or drainage channels.

6.7 RESETTLEMENT COLONIES Under the schemes for resettlement of JJ clusters 47 resettlement colonies were developed during 1961-77. Around 2.0 Lakh plots were developed accommodating about 2.4 lakh households. These resettlement colonies have degenerated due to intense population pressures and unorganized development. Therefore investment towards up gradation of physical infrastructure has to be made for improving civic life. Annex 6.2 gives detailed list of resettlement colonies in City.

6.7.1 Location of Resettlement Colonies

The spatial distribution of these colonies indicates that they are proliferating mainly in the south-east, north east, north-west, south-west and central parts of the NCT of Delhi. There are five colonies in South-East, eight in North-East, 15 in North West, Seven in South West and 12 in central Delhi.

6.8 RELOCATION SITES

There are around 11 relocation sites such as Bawana, Holambi Kalan, Papan kalan, Rohini, Narela, Savdar Ghevada etc. The most recent relocation has been made to three principal sites. These are Dwarka (known also as Papan Kalan), Rohini, Narela and Savdar Ghevada. The main pockets from where JJ Cluster were relocated are Central, South and East Delhi areas. Thus, during 1999-2000, 3741 squatter households from the JJ clusters at CGO complex, Chanakyapuri, Kotla Mubarakpur, Andrews Ganj, Sadiq Nagar, Mahki Sarai, Shahdara were moved to Narela and Rohini. 27.4 acres of land has been allotted at Molar Bund for shifting of the JJ cluster at Gautam Nagar behind AIIMS. In 1997-98, DDA allocated 32 acres of land in Tehkhand village for relocation of squatter families. These relocation / resettlement sites offer no security of tenure to habitants who begin a new life without security, basic services, schools and other basic amenities. (Refer Figure 6.2 & 6.2 (a))

Box 4: Experience of Relocation One of the problems with regard to the strategy of relocation is that of allottees transferring the plots for payment and then squatting elsewhere. According to recent estimates by DDA, more than 50 per cent of the allottees have sold their plots which are now occupied by unauthorized persons. The sample survey in Kalkaji and Dakshinpuri resettlement colony (out of 6238 units only 2350 were original allottees) reveals that around 50% occupants were not original allottees. The transfer of properties has been attributed to the fact that relocation sites planned were 40km away from the existing location of JJ clusters.

At Bhalswa resettlement site, communities were relocated in November 2000. They started the process of constructing their homes on land allotted to them without any tenure document. Without adequate documented tenure, the residents cannot obtain loans from financial institutions. Additionally, unscrupulous property dealers offer loans to residents and then coerce them to leave under duress.

6.9 SLUM DEVELOPMENT POLICES & STRATEGIES

The approach of the government towards areas notified as Slums under the Slum areas Act 19561 has been three pronged (i) Clearance/Relocation; (ii) In-situ upgradation; and (iii) Environmental Improvement Schemes. Clearance / relocation has been the mainstay of the policy towards the squatters and JJ clusters. The program of squatter clearance was discontinued at the end of the sixth plan (1980-85). The clearance program has been initiated again in 2005.

The general policy adopted by the government has been two fold (i) No new encroachment shall be permitted on public land and (ii) Past encroachments viz. those in existence up to 1990 would not be removed without providing alternatives.

6.9.1 Walled City Slum (Katra) Clearance and Improvement

There are 319 katras in the walled city area with about 3000 buildings or properties. Out of these, 365 properties have been identified as dangerous and therefore require resettlement of the inhabitants. In addition, there are 400 properties, which are with the evacuee property cell of Land and Building Department, Delhi Government. At present two schemes are being implemented by the slum wing for the improvement of the wall city. These are (i) structural improvement of Katras; (ii) relocation of Katra Dwellers. The salient features of these programmes are presented below.

NAME OF PROGRAMME

SALIENT FEATURES ACHIEVEMENT

Katra Structural Improvement

Structural improvement are made only to those katra properties where: (i) Cost of structural repairs does not exceed Rs 1000 per m2 and habitable space after structure improvement should not fall below 3m2 per inhabitant. (ii) Per capita space is more than 3m2 but cost of repair exceeds Rs 1000 per m2, the occupants are either evacuated or conferred ownership rights to enable them to make improvements either by themselves or by forming a co-operative society.

About Rs 2 crore per year is being utilized from Plan funds for repair of these Katras by the slum wing and the transferring the ownership right to the residing households for maintenance.

Katra Clearance

Katra properties that do not fall under the parameter of structural improvement are to be cleared.

In 9th five year plan, the relocation scheme contains two components. These are construction of 261 flats at Ajmeri Gate, where katra properties were cleared, and construction of 900 incremental type houses in various parts of Delhi.

Environment Improvement

Environment improvement is undertaken under urban basic

6.9.2 JJ Clusters and Squatter Settlements

Three pronged strategy has been adopted by Government of Delhi2 for dealing with the problems of JJ Clusters. These strategies are (i) Relocation of Jhuggie Households; (ii) In-situ Up gradation of JJ Clusters; and (iii) Extension of minimum basic civic amenities for community use under EIUS schemes in JJ clusters. The salient features and achievement of these schemes and programmes are presented below:

PROGRAMME SALIENT FEATURES ACHIEVEMENT

Relocation & Resettlement

Under this Strategy, relocation has to be carried out for only those clusters that are required by the land owning agency for projects of larger public interest. The cost of resettlement due to the land owning agency amounts to Rs 29,000 per household. The beneficiary3 is expected to contribute Rs 7000 and the Slum department has to provide a grant of Rs 10,000 towards the cost of sites and services for the purpose of resettlement.

During 1990-99, about 13000 JJ households have been relocated. During 1999-00, about 3741 squatter households from JJ clusters at CGO complex, Chanakyapuri, Kotla Mubarakpur, Andrews Ganj, Sadiq Nagar, Mahki Sarai, Shahdara were moved to Narela and Rohini.

In-situ Upgradation of JJ Clusters4

The scheme involves re-planning of the existing JJ dwelling units in modified layouts by redistributing the encroached land pockets. The JJ households are given plots of 10 to 12.5 m2 in modified layouts. The beneficiary constructs the shelter under a self help approach with technical extension services from MCD and Slum & JJ department

In-Situ up-gradation has been undertaken in 3 JJ clusters viz at Prayog Vihar (214 DUs), Ekta Vihar (471 DUs) and Shanti Vihar (112 DUs) respectively. At present JJ clusters of Shahbad-Daulatpur are being developed with this approach for providing infrastructure services. In first

2 Government of Delhi has emphasized on two policies with regards to JJ Clusters “Policy-1: No fresh encroachments shall be permitted on public land and Policy-2: Past encroachments which had been in existence prior to 31/01/90 would not be removed without providing alternatives. 3 The beneficiaries staying in JJ clusters prior to 1990 are provided with 18.5m2 plots, whereas those settled in 1990-98 are provided with 12.5m2 plots at the relocation site. The squatters settled after 1998 are displaced without providing alternatives. 4 The implementation of this programme is dependent upon two conditions. One is “No Objection Certificate” from the land owning agency and the other is clearance of the project by the technical committee of DDA.

and consultative support from NGOs & VOs. Upto 1992-93, in-situ upgradation was limited within a cost ceiling of Rs. 6000 per dwelling unit, which has been extended to Rs 8000 per dwelling unit.

phase, 4800 families are being covered and the second phase will take care of 4000 households.

Environment Improvement Scheme of JJ Clusters

In JJ clusters, which are not being relocated or developed with the in-situ approach, basic amenities are provided under the ‘Environment Improvement of Urban Slums Scheme’. The minimum basic facilities provided are as per the prescribed national norm5 of Rs 525 per capita, which has been raised to Rs 800 since April 1995.

Jansuvidha Complexes: 1985-1991: 138 Pay and Use Jan Suvidha Complexes were constructed. 1995-1999: 365 Pay and Use Jan Suvidha Complexes and 9211 WCs were constructed. Water Supply: Until 1990: 917 water hydrants had been provided in 280 JJ clusters and 601 India Mark-II hand pumps installed in 205 dwellers. Street Light: Upto 1990: In all 4981 electric poles containing 6,318 street light points were available in 326 clusters.

6.9.3 Tenure Funding Mechanisms

The current land tenure allotted to the dwellers is for a lease period of 5 to 10 years. The lease period of around 80% dwellers at relocation sites has expired. The NGOs / Slum & JJ Department assist in forming societies by motivating the beneficiaries. Beneficiaries are to meet the incidental charges amounting to Rs 247 towards formation of the Societies. Resettlement is organized by setting up multi-purpose co-operative societies comprising of about 200 families.

6.9.4 Financial Performance of Slum Improvement

The amount spent on slum improvement and rehabilitation programmes in the city by the slum department of the MCD since the year 2002 – 03 has been given in Table 6.7. The maximum expenditure of Rs. 179.3 million was in the year 2003-04 under the National Slum Development Programme. A steep decline in the allocations for slum development is evident. Since 1991, the slum department has developed around 55000 plots for relocation of squatters through non-Plan investment and has not utilized the Plan investment as is evident from the table below.

5 The Norms and Standards for basic amenities are: (i) Water Supply-One tap for 150 persons; (ii) Drainage for Waste water and Storm Water; (iii) Community Bath- One bath for 20-50 persons; (iv) Community Latrine- One WC seat for 20-25 persons; (v) Widening and paving of lanes; (vi) Street lighting- poles 30 meters apart and (vii) Community Facilities-Community Centres, Dispensaries, non-formal educational centre.

Source: Slum Department, Municipal Corporation of Delhi, Delhi 6.10 ISSUES IN SHELTER FOR THE URBAN POOR

The evaluation of slums, JJ clusters and resettlement sites, housing workers and service providers in Delhi highlighted the following issues:

(i) Legal Security of Tenure: Studies conducted by various NGOs and CBOs

highlighted the problem of security of legal tenure, rights of the dwellers on resettlement sites and the JJ clusters. Without adequate documented tenure, the residents cannot obtain loans from financial institutions. Additionally, unscrupulous property dealers offer loans to residents and then coerce them to leave under duress.

Chapter – 6 Urban Poor & Slum

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

6-13

(ii) Access to Appropriate Mechanisms of Finance: The poor are unable to meet the requirements of conventional financing institutions, and housing micro-finance is poorly developed.

(iii) In-situ Up gradation of Existing JJ clusters: Around 80% of dwellers of

JJ clusters favour in-situ up-gradation of clusters with provision of plots not less than 40m2. In case the relocation is unavoidable, it shall be within 2km radius. If plots cannot be provided, relocation in G+1 structures is preferred.

(iv) Access to Public Goods and Services: In all the relocation sites, and 85-

90% of JJ clusters, residents did not have access to public goods and services. These areas lack general health services, access to portable water and sanitation. As discussed above, residents are dependent on private tankers to meet their water need. In all the JJ clusters, residents have to travel average distances of 500m-700m to PSP with an average waiting time of 20-25 minutes. All the twelve relocation sites are not accessible from arterial & sub arterial roads in the city.

(v) Variable plots sizes at relocation sites: The eligibility criteria for

resettlement is restricted to those who are (i) Indian Nationals and (ii) residing on the respective site as on 31st December 1998 as evidenced by ration cards. Because of the cut-off date, upto 40-45% families of JJ clusters are ineligible for relocation. Hence, it has become very difficult to get encroached land pockets completely vacated.

The existing practice adopted by slum department for provision of plot to the beneficiaries is (i) 18m2 to beneficiaries settled before 1990 and 12.5m2 to beneficiaries settled during 1990-98. This practice of providing differential plots sizes to the beneficiaries, which is lower than the UNHCR guideline of 40 m2, is one of the major issues to be tackled as part of the slum relocation policy.

(vi) Land Suitability of Relocation Sites: The land provided for the

construction of homes in five of the twelve sites is uninhabitable. In areas of Hastsal, Bhalsawa and Madanpur Khader, around 15-20 % of plots are 5-10 feet below Ground Level and vulnerable to flooding.

CHAPTER - 7 CONSERVATION & HERITAGE MANAGEMENT

7.1 INTRODUCTION

Heritage Resource Conservation and Management imperatives for Delhi

The distinctive historical pattern of development of Delhi, with sixteen identified capital cities1 located in different parts of the triangular area between the Aravalli ridge and the Yamuna river, has resulted in the distribution of a large number of highly significant heritage resources, mainly dating from the 13th century onwards, as an integral component within the contemporary city environment. (Map-1) In addition, as many of these heritage resources (Ashokan rock edict, two World Heritage Sites, most ASI protected monuments) are closely associated with the ridge, existing water systems, forests and open space networks, they exemplify the traditional link between natural and cultural resources which needs to be enhanced and strengthened in order to improve Delhi’s environment. (Map -2)

7.1.1 Heritage Typologies – Location and Significance These heritage resources continue to be of great significance and relevance to any sustainable development planning vision for Delhi, encompassing a vast range of heritage typologies2, including: 1. Archaeological sites, 2. Fortifications, citadels, different types of palace buildings and

administrative complexes, 3. Religious structures and complexes, including Dargah complexes 4. Memorials, funerary structures, tombs 5. Historic gardens, 6. Traditional networks associated with systems of water harvesting and

7. Hunting lodge complexes or Shikargahs, 8. Living settlements such as the historic Walled City with its traditional

mohallas, and historic housing stock including havelis, kuchas, katras. 9. Urbanised historic villages or traditional settlements incorporated within

the urban limits with traditional multiple-use bazaar spines, and Rural historic villages

10. The planned ‘Garden city’ of New Delhi Not only are these heritage resources (including two World Heritage Sites, one World Monuments Watch Endangered Site and numerous traditional Dargah associated settlements which are vibrant centres of cultural and pilgrim significance) integral to defining the identity of Delhi, but they are also of immense historical, archaeological, architectural, functional, economic, recreational and educational value to the citizens of contemporary Delhi.

7.1.2 Potential for Community Based Regeneration and Heritage Tourism

Almost all sections of the city are enriched by these heritage resources, with a concentration of specific heritage components being located in the walled city of Shahjehanabad and areas associated with the sites of the other historic capital cities such as Mehrauli, Shahpur Jat, Tughlaquabad. Many of these significant heritage resources are located in fast-deteriorating historic urban areas and historic villages, and are threatened by over-use or inappropriate uses, property speculation, poverty of the inhabitants and inadequate infrastructure. However, their latent potential for macro-level city environmental improvement as well as community level economic regeneration through appropriate, participatory conservation and comprehensive heritage management plans and measures which include area-level conservation, adaptive reuse, visitor interpretation and cultural tourism is significant and should be taken into account by the CDP.

7.1.3 Ineffective conservation framework and lack of integration with the development planning process.

Although there has been a concern for the preservation of the monuments of Delhi since the first systematic surveys and investigations were carried out in the late 19th century by the ASI, resulting in the identification of 106 monuments by Dr Rodgers, 269 monuments by Dr Vogel in 1902, and 1317 monuments, sites and buildings by Maulvi Zafar Hasan in 1911- 1916, for various reasons only 175 of these which were of ‘Grade I’ were notified for protection as being of national significance (Ref. Appendix-1). By 2004, the number of monuments notified for protection by the ASI in the NCT of Delhi was reduced to 151+4, as some of the monuments were considered by the ASI to have lost their significance due to rapid urbanization, despite the provisions of the 1961 Master Plan for Delhi, and were under the process of

Page 130: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 7 Conservation & Heritage Management

Client: Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant: IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

7-3

being deprotected. The State Department of Archaeology of the GNCTD has protected only 20 monuments to date.

Surveys and conservation initiatives by INTACH in the 80’s and 90’s3 revealed that out of the remaining 1142 historical monuments, sites and buildings identified by Maulvi Zafar Hasan in 1911-1916, which were considered to be of regional and local importance but were not protected, almost one third had been lost, indicating the lack of an effective conservation framework.

7.1.4 Existing framework for Conservation and Integrated Heritage Management for Delhi – Necessity for Coordination and Convergence

The existing institutional framework for protection, conservation and management of the heritage resources of Delhi, within the urban management framework, is characterized by administrative and technical sectorisation of responsibilities. As mentioned by both the Delhi Urban Environment and Infrastructure Improvement Project (DUEIIP), 2001 and the Draft MPD 2021, there is a clear necessity for coordination and convergence in conservation and formulation of locally based community development programmes which include upgradation, regeneration and provision of essential infrastructure in areas with a concentration of identified heritage resources.

7.1.5 Agencies involved with planning and implementation of heritage conservation and rehabilitation works, as well as continuing maintenance and management of heritage resources The primary agencies which are involved with conservation and management of the built heritage in Delhi are the following:

century residential buildings not identified by the 1911 survey, listed a total of 1203 monuments, sites and buildings, including the 151+ 4 protected by the ASI. Conservation Zones In consonance with the international (UNESCO) normative framework for integrated conservation and heritage management, there has been a shift in focus from individual monuments, with recent efforts encompassing the entire Walled City, Archaeological Parks and other heritage Conservation Zones delineated around traditional settlements such as Hazrat Nizamuddin. Earlier reports and the 2000 INTACH Listing have identified 26 proposed Conservation Areas or areas with a concentration of heritage resources in Delhi.

DDA ‘Control Zones’ The Zonal Development Plan prepared by the DDA for the Walled City (Part Zones A & C) , approved 1999, identifies 5 ‘control zones’ as Conservation Areas, as well as urban design interest areas, protected monuments and other buildings for conservation, and also suggests the preparation of area by area ‘urban renewal plans’. Draft MPD – 2021 Provisions for Conservation The Draft MPD 2021, in its section 10 on Conservation of Built Heritage mentions 170 (sic) ASI protected monuments, as well as lists of heritage buildings published by the MCD, NDMC and the State Department of Archaeology. The Draft MPD-2021 also identifies 6 Heritage Zones, including the entire Walled City of Shahjehanabad and three Archaeological Parks. It states that each local body / land owning agency should formulate ‘Special Development Plans’ for the conservation and improvement of listed heritage complexes and zones. Necessity for a common heritage Database (Inventory of Heritage Resources) However, to date, there is still no comprehensive, reliable database, GIS or Cultural Resource Information System for heritage resources of Delhi, used by all the agencies concerned with heritage conservation, which distinguishes between heritage resources which are of global, national, city-level and local significance and which indicates their exact location and legal boundaries on maps to a scale appropriate for preparation and implementation of local area plans, including heritage management and regeneration plans.

7.2 INVENTORY OF HERITAGE RESOURCES OF DELHI

Systematic process of identification and delineation of heritage resources

One of the primary requirements for integration of the heritage resources into the city development process (as recognized in the Draft MPD 2021 as well as by agencies such as the MCD, ASI & GNCT Delhi Department of Archaeology ) is a systematic process of identification and delineation on

Page 139: City Development Plan Delhi

7-12

correct and updated maps (Master Plan Level/ Zonal Level / Area Level) of all heritage resources - components of heritage significance of Delhi ( sites, structures, monuments, conservation areas, precincts, historic urbanised villages and water management systems).

Compilation and verification of inventories This involves the compilation of inventories of heritage resources prepared by various agencies over the past 20 years, updating of that information, correlation of authentic statistical data and preparation of maps at appropriate scales which are adequate for formulation of comprehensive conservation and heritage management plans for the areas within which these heritage resources are located. In the case of monuments, buildings and sites protected by the ASI and the GNCTD Department of Archaeology, it is further necessary to precisely demarcate the extent and exact legal boundaries of the designated Protected Area, as well as the properties within the Prohibited Area and the Regulated Area surrounding the monuments/ complexes of National or State Importance.

An inventory of the monuments protected by the ASI (151) and the GNCTD Department of Archaeology (20) is given in Appendix (1) together with a map indicating their location within Delhi. In addition heritage resources listed by other organizations and agencies are given, and indicated on the map.

Distribution of Heritage resources in various zones

It is seen from an analysis of the distribution of the 1203 heritage resources (not including the 26 identified conservation areas) in the inventory compiled by INTACH (2000) that the historic Walled City of Shahjehanabad in Zone A has 231 identified heritage buildings (reduced from the 411 identified by Zafar Hasan’s survey for the ASI in 1913). The DDA Zonal Development Plan for the Walled City (Part Zone A & Zone C) however has taken into account the heritage resources as per the earlier survey. In the case of Zone B, 17 heritage buildings and complexes had been listed by INTACH in the 2000 Report, in Zone C 143 were listed, in Zone D (including the NDMC area) 304 historic buildings were listed, in Zone F 465 historic buildings were listed, while in Zone G 35 historic buildings were listed and in Zone H 8 buildings were listed.

Within the Walled City as well as within historic traditional settlements and urban villages such as Hazrat Nizamuddin, Chiragh Delhi, Khirki, Mehrauli etc. which have been identified as Conservation Areas, in addition to the identified heritage resources, there are numerous vernacular residential structures, traditional havelis and other elements which contribute to the distinctive urbanscapes of sections of these areas. Although the number of historic buildings in the rural and recently urbanized areas to the north and north-west is small, these zones contain extremely important heritage typologies such as the Shikargah at Jaunti village and the Minar and HathiKhana at Hastsal (both of the Shahjehani period), which also present valuable opportunities for linking conservation and provision of essential community amenities and infrastructure.

7.3 WALLED CITY OF SHAHJEHANABAD & WALLED CITY EXTENSIONS 7.3.1 Development Pattern

Founded in 1639-1648 CE, the site chosen for Shahjehan’s planned capital city was an elevated area overlooking the river Yamuna, near the existing fort of Salimgarh, and encompassing within it significant components of the earlier city of Firozabad. The great enclosure wall, 27 feet high, 12 feet thick and 3.8 miles long, constructed during the years 1651-1658, encompassed an area of 569 ha., with 10 large gates and numerous smaller ones located at the ends of the principal urban arteries, and supported a population of 60,000. Bhujla Pahari,

which was located near the centre of the walled city was used as the site for the Jama Masjid, with an area of lower ground between the Jama Masjid and the citadel, the Red Fort. Significant heritage typologies and transformations There were two main Bazaar thoroughfares – the Chandni Chowk from the Lahori Gate of the Fort to the Fatehpuri Masjid, and the Faiz Bazaar. Over a period of time, other specialized markets, urban gardens, canals, sarais, havelis, residential mohallas, kuchas, katras, for different crafts communities, 202 mosques of which 200 were built between 1639 and 1857,(including Begumi-Amiri and Mohalla mosques), dargahs, khanquahs and other religious structures were constructed, and the heritage resources of this period still characterize most areas of the walled city. Changes were brought by the British in two phases – between 1803-1857 when the palaces of Dara Shikoh and Ali Mardan Khan in the Kasmere Gate Area were used for the Residency, military barracks and the magazine, and after 1857 when the railway was introduced into the city, clearing a wide area through the northern part of the city from east to west, and replacing the sarai of Jehanara Begum on Chandni Chowk by the Town Hall. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries extensive construction and densification of the city took place, with disintegration of the traditional social ecology, increasing commercialization and associated congestion and degradation of the environment.

7.3.2 Existing Situation

According to the DDA Zonal plan, the population of the Walled City increased to saturation point in 1961, after which there has been large scale infill by commercial uses replacing residential uses and the total work force working in different sectors is estimated to be 4.0 lakhs. The Walled City comprises of 16 sub-

Page 142: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 7 Conservation & Heritage Management

7-15

zones, 15 of which are part of Zone A and one sub-zone is part of Zone-C. The area of the sub-zones varies from 14.4 ha. to 76.6 ha (Refer Table below). The population of the walled city is gradually reducing, with a reduction of about 50,000 persons in the decade between 1981-91. This reduction in population has been attributed to a decrease in residential area, with some of the sub-zones having as low as 12% of the area under residential use. Heritage Resources – Traditional housing and Conservation Areas About 80% of the total housing stock is traditional housing (katras, kuchas), with some densely populated areas with net densities of about 4400 PPH. Commercial establishments have increased by 700% in two decades, with some noxious industries and hazardous trades existing within the densely built-up area. Different areas of the walled city have a dense concentration of various types of heritage resources, traditional housing and urbanscapes associated with important roads and mohallas where the traditional character still exists. These were identified in the ASI Survey of 1911-16 (411 historical monuments/ sites/ buildings)and later by INTACH.2000 (231 historical monuments/ sites/ buildings). The Zonal Development Plan (1999) has identified 15 junctions, chowks, nodal areas and 17 streets, galis, bazaars and chattas which retain their traditional character as Control Zones, as well as 5 other control zones as Conservation Areas.

7.3.3 Priorities for Heritage Management in Shahjehanabad Walled City

Necessity for formulation of heritage management plans for heritage zones • The necessity for conservation and heritage management within the Walled

City area of Shahjehanabad has been recognized in the Zonal Development Plan to some extent (control zones for Conservation areas, streets and chowks/nodal points were identified), as well as in the draft MPD 2021 which designates the entire Walled City as one of the Conservation Areas of Delhi. However, the present boundaries of the planning sub-zones within the Zones A & C do not follow the traditional boundaries of the mohallas, bazaars and neighbourhoods, leading to situations where streets such as the Chandni Chowk fall into two zones. Rationalisation of the boundaries based on the heritage typologies, concentration of heritage resources, coherence of the area and issues related to land uses and community needs in the various areas is required in order to formulate the ‘special development plans’ for designated heritage zones.

• Detailed identification of the components of the traditional housing stock

and individual historic havelis, katras, kuchas and mohallas, and demarcation on area level maps, together with an indication of their value as a heritage resource is required.

• A framework for integrated heritage management of the Red Fort and the

Walled city of Shahjehanabad as a whole, which is linked with community development, regeneration, crafts development and potential cultural tourism activities is required.

Strategies linking infrastructure upgradation, appropriate adaptive reuse, provision of essential community facilities and economic regeneration – Area Level • Infrastructure inadequacies have been identified to some extent in the

Zonal Development Plan, but upgradation and infrastructure retro-fitting requirements which take into account the value of the heritage resources at the area level need to be identified. Water supply and sewerage connections should be compulsory, and lines will require augumentation. Social infrastructure requirements could be partially met by appropriate adaptive reuse and conservation of heritage properties.

• Although about 3,500 evacuee properties/ Katras (under the Custodian of

Evacuee Property) have been mentioned as being controlled by the Slum Department in the Zonal Development Plan, it is observed that some of these properties of heritage value such as the Haveli Ahsanullah Khan at Hauz Qazi have been retrieved by their owners. The Zonal Development Plan suggests that in the ‘action plans’, ‘redevelopment in the conservation manner i.e. property by property’ be undertaken. Three categories of these properties have been identified , including Government Owned dangerous Katras/ evacuee properties, Government Owned other than dangerous Katras/ evacuee properties, Privately Owned Katras/ evacuee properties, for which different mechanisms are suggested. It is necessary to ensure that the heritage value of these properties is taken into account when deciding upon conservation priorities and appropriate courses of action for rehabilitation.

• Recent heritage management initiatives for landmark bank buildings • Identification of mechanisms to ensure linkages between appropriate

adaptive reuse and reutilization of selected heritage buildings for provision of community infrastructure, facilities and amenities for cultural tourism.7

7.4 HISTORIC URBAN VILLAGES 7.4.1 Development Pattern

‘Urban Villages’ are ‘traditional rural settlements which have been changed and merged with urban areas’ or villages which have been incorporated over time into the urban limits of the present city of Delhi. They are a basic feature of the present complex urban structure and include within their limits a large proportion of the heritage resources associated with the many earlier cities of Delhi, encompassing both vernacular residential and community structures, as well as religious buildings and historic monuments. Even among themselves, they display varied characteristics depending on their location, inhabitants, their historical role and relationship to the city. The cultural, educational and economic significance of these villages is due to the fact that many of these villages include historical elements dating back at least 900 years, some are outstanding examples of the traditional village pattern, while others retain the spirit of a past way of life which has disappeared from other parts of the city. In addition, they are areas of immense use value as they served as reception areas for low income migrants and augmented the housing stock of the city. Heritage Resources – Conservation Zones The number of urban villages is currently 135, having increased from 47 in 1951. Out of these, urban villages such as Nizamuddin, Chiragh Delhi, Khirki, Sarai Shahji, Begumpur, Kalu Sarai, Kalkaji, Shaikh Sarai, Ardhchini, Saidulajaib, Mehrauli, Hauz Khas, Shahpur Jat, Tughlaquabad have a major concentration of heritage resources. Within these settlements, at the time of incorporation within the urban limits, the land earmarked for village settlements including land for houses and common needs of the villagers, encompassing the ‘Abadi’ area was shown in red ink and known as the ‘Lal Dora’. This area, in the past, has been exempt from municipal byelaws and restrictions, leading to very high densities, incompatible land uses and the location of noxious and hazardous industries within the settlement. Most of these urban villages which have a concentration of heritage resources are included within the Conservation Zones identified by INTACH and are also on certain heritage tourism itineraries.

7.4.2 Development Requirements – Issues, potential and threats

• 7 For example, Educational institutions such as Senior Secondary schools are sufficient in number but deficient in

space and historic derelict buildings could be used to provide facilities; area is deficient in health facilities, many of the existing historic buildings which already accommodate traditional dispensaries – these could be upgraded, in addition to proposed densification of the Engineering College area Railway land due to shifting of the goods yards.

Chapter – 7 Conservation & Heritage Management

7-19

Historic urban villages, with their distinctive settlement pattern, range of traditional residential typologies and havelis and heritage resources such as the vibrant religious and cultural complexes of the sufi Dargahs of Delhi in Nizamuddin, Chiragh Delhi, Mehrauli, Ardhchini etc. and a range of protected monuments, sites and remains of National Importance are threatened today by increasing over-densification, uncontrolled and inappropriate construction primarily to cater to the demand for low-income rental housing for migrants, encroachments and inappropriate uses. Construction of this type, detrimental to the environment of these historic urban villages due to increased infrastructural stresses, incompatible in both use and scale, encroaches upon and overpowers, almost engulfing the significant heritage resources and way of life of the traditional settlement with its great potential for heritage tourism.

7.4.3 Strategies for economic regeneration, participatory conservation and environmental improvement Locally based, site specific, participatory integrated conservation and management programmes for these heritage areas, with a major infrastructure upgradation and historic building rehabilitation component, are required. Possibilities for economic regeneration through comprehensive conservation of heritage resources, supporting and stimulating cottage industries and handicrafts need to be looked into, and programmes based on the linkages between poverty alleviation and holistic environmental improvement and conservation and rehabilitation efforts developed. These detailed community based programmes need to be formulated with the objective of regeneration and conservation of these historic urban villages, focusing and building upon the contribution of these villages to the distinctive identity of the part of the city in which they are located, and should suggest specific strategies to utilise their potential as part of thematic heritage tourism circuits, and to ensure that revenue generated through heritage tourism is utilised for the environmental upgradation of the historic urban village and the benefit of the community.

7.5 HISTORIC RURAL VILLAGES

A number of historic villages, located in the rural areas, which still retain their traditional agriculture based functions and settlement patterns contain a number of significant heritage resources in the form of ‘Shikargahs’ or extensive Tughlaq and Mughal Period Hunting Palace complexes , water reservoirs etc. The conservation, provision of essential infrastructure and adaptive reuse of areas associated with these heritage complexes, such as the

Shikargah in Jaunti village could be of great potential for heritage tourism, provision of community facilities as well as generation and diversification of employment opportunities for the local community through conservation.

7.6 HISTORIC & TRADITIONAL WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

Components of the historic & traditional water management systems of the city such as the bunds, sluices, reservoirs, ‘baolis’, tanks, village have been identified as still having the potential to supplement the city’s water resources through water harvesting as well as playing a significant role in groundwater recharge in the part of the city in which they are located. These heritage resources, such as the Ugrasen’s Baoli in Connaught Place, the Baoli in Nizamuddin, the Jharna and Hauz Shamsi in Mehrauli, the HauzKhas tank associated with the FirozShah Tughlaq’s tomb etc., are vital community, functional, recreational and educational resources. Some of the larger reservoirs, such as the waterbody associated with the Shikargah or Hunting Palace at Jaunti; the Bund and the Baoli associated with Talkatora Garden; etc. are of ecological value and some have considerable potential for heritage tourism as part of a ‘Rural Tourism’ circuit. Most of these water bodies and components of the historic water management systems of Delhi are required to be conserved under a ruling of the High Court.

The magnitude of the recent losses of the heritage resources of the city (12 of the 163 ASI protected monuments, buildings and remains of National Importance, and almost one third of the heritage buildings and structures of regional and state significance listed in the 1911-16 ASI survey have been demolished or lost - out of the 151+4 monuments currently protected by the ASI8, 14 are under encroachment and proceedings are on in the High Court to ensure that they are cleared) due to urbanisation and development pressures, requires the preparation of a comprehensive database and identification and demarcation of the location, extent, legal boundaries of heritage resources as well as the Prohibited and Regulated areas on maps in a comprehensive manner ( Cultural Resource Information System) to be utilised by all the agencies concerned with development ; Among the conservation related objectives identified by the the Draft MPD 2021 for which close coordination and cooperation is required from agencies such as the ASI, GNCTD State Department of Archaeology, NDMC, MCD, Cantonment Board and DDA, two essential ones are related to: Maintaining and updating a heritage database, defining all applicable terms

and Listing of Heritage Buildings based on appropriate criteria.

2. Strategies for utilisation of Heritage Tourism potential of cultural resources

Planning for heritage tourism linked to the city’s vast range of heritage resources for environmental and community benefits should be developed within an appropriate conservation and heritage management framework, with provision of adequate safeguards and according to the International Charters for Cultural Tourism; Identification of thematic cultural tourism circuits within Delhi which could include ‘Rural tourism’, ‘Pilgrim circuits’ as well as programmes for ‘Heritage festivals’ linked with the heritage resources of the city and its traditional festivals and celebrations, and the identification and designation of a category of ‘Heritage hotels’ associated with certain typologies of heritage resources in Delhi. This could be linked with the Draft MPD2021 objective of implementing programmes for education and awareness 3. Strategies for Adaptive re-use, upgradation, and provision of infrastructure in Heritage Conservation Areas and Historic Urban Villages should be developed within the heritage management framework;

4. Preparation of Heritage management Plans & Detailed Conservation Plans should be urgently undertaken for the identified heritage resources by qualified conservation professionals. This is linked with the Draft MPD 2021 objective of developing organizational capacity for heritage management.

8 The total number of monuments was 175, later reduced to 163. Out of these, a number of monuments have been delisted and others recently notified.8.of National Importance in the National Capital Territory of Delhi, under the administrative control of the Delhi Circle of the Archeological Survey of India, as entered in the original list

5. Conservation guidelines and Special Development regulations should be formulated for areas associated with protected monuments, sites and buildings as well as for other areas with a concentration of heritage resources; All development plans for areas in close proximity to World Heritage Sites, even if they are beyond the official 100m Prohibited Area + 200m Regulated Area require a process of impact assessment on the heritage. This should be mandatory, so that long term and cumulative impacts are mitigated, valuable heritage resources are not lost but utlised for the benefit of the community and for improvement of the environment and quality of life in heritage areas, and visual corridors are also retained and not obstructed. This is linked with the Draft MPD 2021 objective for preparation of guidelines for development, redevelopment, additions, alterations, repairs, renovations and reuse of heritage buildings

6. Integration of certain heritage resources of Delhi with the proposed Greenways project to strengthen traditional linkages between the cultural and natural resources of Delhi.

(ii) Managerial

1. Multiplicity of organizations and lack of effective, coordinated action. 2. Issues related to derelict/ encroached/ evacuee properties 3. Effective implementation of Heritage management Plans & Conservation

Plans

The DUEIIP, 2001 had stated that the primary cultural heritage assets would be the responsibility of the ASI and the GNCTD Department of Archaeology, and that GNCTD Department of Archaeology had been identified in association with the DDA, MCD and NGO’s as the executive agency for the formulation of an action plan to demonstrate the utilization of cultural heritage conservation as a catalyst for comprehensive community environmental upgrading and regeneration. The primary objectives of this were envisaged as a process of ‘community self – regeneration’ through cultural heritage area conservation and rehabilitation. The project was intended to ‘expand and accelerate conservation efforts, build and consolidate private-public partnerships (including the tourism industry), and use the rehabilitation process to alleviate poverty and mitigate negative environmental impacts’.

(iii) Financial

Currently, funds earmarked for conservation of heritage resources are woefully inadequate, and mechanisms are required whereby a small percentage of property tax, as well revenues generated from tourism could be utilized for restoration, comprehensive conservation and heritage management initiatives. Mobilisation of adequate resources for effective conservation and heritage management requires to be linked with processes of economic regeneration.

(Possible models could include the Main Street programmes which were effective for revitalisation for small towns in the US) • Incentives for conservation could be given in the following manner:

o Financial – by direct grant to the owner of the heritage resource from

the Central/State government/Heritage Organisations o Providing the building owner access to credit, and Tax relief or

concessions to the building owner o Cross- subsidies and provisions for Cessed buildings o Incentives and mechanisms such as TDR for heritage buildings. o Direct action by the authorities through upgrading of infrastructure and

through the acquisition, restoration and maintenance of buildings for provision of essential community facilities

Encouragement from the public authority through setting up of Building Centres for assisting locals in conservation and appropriate rehabilitation activities as well as formulation of community based heritage management plans in a participatory manner. Delhi Government has proposed certain initiatives to encourage Public-Private Partnerships in the heritage conservation and management sector. There are proposals to involve Business organisations, N.G.Os, Residential Welfare Associations, Public Sector Undertakings and Government departments to maintain monuments under specific guidelines under the supervision of the Department of Archaeology.

CHAPTER - 8 CITY WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM

8.1 INTRODUCTION

Delhi is situated along a perennial source of water, the river Yamuna. The river divides the city into East Delhi known as Trans Yamuna Area, and New Delhi. The National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCTD) has an area of 1483 km2

and comprises of three constituents MCD (1297.29 km2), NDMC (42.74 km2) and DCB (42.97 km2) respectively. This chapter presents historical overview of water supply system, present status of production and demand, extent of coverage and agencies involved in transmission and distribution of water.

8.2 HISTORY OF DELHI WATER SUPPLY Delhi depends largely on river Yamuna1 and partially on river Ganga for its share of water. The flow of the river is regulated at Tajewala Barrage (subsequently by Hathinikund barrage) and the dry weather flow is entirely diverted into Eastern Yamuna Canal for UP and the Western Jamuna Canal (WJC) for Haryana, UP,Rajasthan and partly for Delhi. Whatever flow appears at Wazirabad, the intake works for Delhi Water Works, is out of regeneration of sub surface drainage.

The Delhi Water Works was constructed at Chandrawal with a capacity of 1 MGD / 4.5 MLD in the year 1890 and the source of water supply was a row of wells sunk along the river. Delhi's population then was 1.93 lakhs. After the Delhi Darbar in 1911, Delhi witnessed an increase in population. By the year 1912, the water demand had exceeded the capacity and recourse was taken to drawing water directly from the river and this necessitated the installation of settling tanks and slow sand filters. The population had risen to 2.33 lakhs and capacity of Water Works raised to 3.3 MGD / 15 MLD. In the year 1921, a raw water pumping station was established at Wazirabad and the water was carried to Chandrawal for treatment, where the capacity was raised to 7 MGD / 32 MLD, the population served was 3.04 lakhs. Since then, the capacity of the water works has been gradually increasing in stages and stood at 35 MGD / 159 MLD by 1948.

Consequent upon signing of Indus Water Treaty between India and Pakistan in 1960; to tide over scarcity of water, the Govt. of Punjab allocated 150 MCM / 0.119 MAF of water to Delhi out of Ravi-Beas waters from Bhakra-Nangal

1 River Yamuna owes River Yamuna owes its origin to Yamunotri glacier of lower Himalayas and enters the plains at Dakpathar (Dehradun) in Uttranchal

storages and this was further raised to 245 MCM / 0.2 MAF in 1976. The Western Jamuna Canal was remodelled and lined to enable Delhi to establish Water Treatment Plant(s), [WTPs] in North West Delhi (at Haiderpur) and thus a second source of surface water came into existence in addition to river Yamuna at Wazirabad. By 1981, whereas the population had shot upto 62.22 lakhs, the production capacity had risen to 1378.7 MLD / 303 MGD. (Refer Annex 8.1)

Box 1 - Share in Yamuna Water

As per MOU on sharing of Yamuna waters between Haryana, UP, Rajasthan & NCTD signed on 12.05.1994, share is 0.724 BCM (consumptive). This is subject to construction of Renuka dam, Kishau dam, Lakhwar Vyasi Project, etc. To meet future water requirements it is necessary to initiate these works on Top Priority Seasonal allocation July to Oct : 0.580 BCM (1926 cusec) Nov to Feb : 0.068 BCM (231 cusec) Mar to June : 0.076 BCM (255 cusec) Total : 0.724 BCM (808 cusec) “Provided further the said interim allocation shall get progress modified as storages are constructed, the final allocations as indicated in para 7 of MoU”. Separate agreement will be executed in respect of each identified storage within the framework of over all allocation made under the agreement

8.3 PRODUCTION SYSTEM

Sources of Water

River Yamuna, Western Jamuna Canal (a carrier of Yamuna waters as also Bhakra waters) and the Upper Ganga Canal, are surface water sources for Delhi. Around 446 tube wells drilled in Yamuna bed and areas within city to meet the water requirement.

Treatment System

DJB is equipped to treat 790 MGD of water inclusive of about 100 MGD of ground water abstraction. However the actual production is 735 MGD, with a short fall of 990 - 735 = 255 MGD at production point.

Table 8.1 presents the water treatment capacity indicating source of raw water.

Initially 65 MGD of water has been released from the plant, on 8th August 2006 and the quantity of supply will be increased in phases.

Transmission and Distribution System

By and large water supply system is through piped water network in urban area, hand pumps and private motorised wells / tubewells, and in areas without planned water supply, through tankers. Details are presented in Table 8.2 Table 8.2: Transmission and distribution network in Delhi S. No. Item

(a) Water Supply to JJ / Slum Clusters

Around 20 lakh people are settled in JJ cluster with water requirement of 270 MLD. Water supply is provided through public water hydrants, tankers and hand pumps. So far Slum & JJ Deptt. had undertaken four Projects of in-situ up gradation of JJ Clusters as at Ekta Vihar (414 families), Proyog Vihar (260 families), Shanti Vihar (113 families) and Shahbad Daulat Pur (4800 families) DJB is able to meet around 60-65% of the water requirement of slum dwellers. The other sources such as hand pumps, tankers and water trolley contributes to 25-30% of water demand.

Unaccounted for Water

Unaccounted for water is in the range of 40 - 45 %. Water losses through unaccounted flow comprises of (i) Unbilled Un-metered Consumption @2%, (ii) Leakage in Transmission mains @ 16% and (iii) Leakages in Distribution mains @ 24%. Thus in reality, 58% of water produced ( 58% of 735 = 426 MGD ) is available for meeting water requirements leading to water shortages in tail end areas and inequitable distribution of water. This is one reason why people have to resort to high abstraction of ground water. Authorised Consumption is thus @ 58% as per breakup (i) Billed Meter Consumption i/c water supply in bulk @ 13% (ii) Billed unmetered consumption @ 37% (iii) Unbilled Unmetered Consumption @ 8% However Non Revenue Water is 42% + 8% = 50% * [Source: World Bank funded Study report by Pricewater House Coopers]

8.4 WATER PRICING AND RECOVERY The annual water supplied to MCD, NDMC and DCB was 10,34,384 ML, 43,059 ML and 12,808 ML respectively in 2002-03. The amount received from these departments is Rs. 3785 million. Table 8.3 shows the details of water supplied and cost recovered from various bodies. The details of water pricing are presented in Annex 8.2.

8.5 ESTIMATION OF WATER DEMAND

The water requirement of Delhi is 1,104 GPCD against the production of 783 GPCD. The excess demand of water is met through 2 lakh private tubewells drilled by owner in their premises. The total demand for 2021 is 1840 GPCD. In order to meet the future demand DDA in the draft Master Plan for Delhi 2021 has split the water requirement in two parts Potable and Non Potable as 35 & 45 GPCD respectively, with the proviso that “In the existing areas till the arrangement of non potable water is made, potable water shall be supplied. For urban extensions and areas under development schemes, these norms are recommended with necessary provisions (Refer Table 8.4 & Annex 8.3).

The estimated demand @ 60 GPCD for a population of 230 lakhs will be 1380 by 2021. Thus there will be a shortfall of 1380 – 919 = 461 MGD.

8.7 WATER QUALITY

Although water quality of Yamuna water up stream of Wazirabad Barrage is good for drinking after conventional treatment, but on account of periodical discharge of industrial effluents, presence of iron is noticed in the ground water abstracted from Ranney wells & tube wells etc. north of Wazirabad Barrage at Palla. A 31 MGD Iron removal plant is proposed to be installed for removal of iron in the first phase.

Presence of ammonia due to pollutants released in the river and WJC, is noticed and the WTPs had to be temporarily closed. This situation needs to be controlled. Iron and ammonia is observed in Ranney well waters going to Okhla WTP requiring establishment of iron removal plant and ammonia stripping plant. Flouride is noticed in some of the tubewells of South Delhi and is a matter of concern.

DJB has a number of laboratories to check the quality of water, both from the WTPs as also from the distribution system. The quality of treated water meets standards set by the MoUD.

8.8 RAIN WATER HARVESTING

DJB has taken up rain water harvesting in its own buildings and rainwater harvesting structures have been provided in 190 installations of the board covering an area of 9.15 lakh sq.m. These structures will successfully recharge ground water aquifers by harvesting 5.10 lakh cubic meters approx of rain water. Certain important precautions need to be taken that roof top rain water after the first 3 showers is drained out and only clear water run off is allowed to go to the underground strata, else there is a danger of ground water pollution.

This calls for extensive education to the people, and undertaking inspections.

8.9 NEW DELHI MUNICIPAL COUNCIL (NDMC) NDMC population as per census 2001 is 1,71,806. The NDMC receives 115 to 120 MLD water in bulk through 19 bulk meters (as on date 8 meters are reported to be non functional) from the DJB and draws 18 to 20 MLD of groundwater drawn from 137 tube wells (effective No. 122) to supplement water supply in its area having 352 km length of water mains (4 inches to 42 inches in diameter) and operates 23 UGR & BPS. The distribution system is maintained by the NDMC.

8.10 DELHI CANTONMENT BOARD (DCB) MES is the main agency to receive water for the Delhi Cantt Board. Area covered is whole of Delhi Cantt including S P Marg area, Mahipalpur area and Shankar Vihar but excluding Naraina Village. • Population of cantt : 2006 - 1,51,605

2011 - 1,63,000 • Total water requirement : 2006 - 13 MGD 2011 - 15 MGD • Water is being received from DJB at two Nodal Points from Palam Reservoir

and Inderpuri Reservoir.

• Water being received is 100% metered • Present storage available is 15 MG in UG sumps and OH tanks. • There are 55 booster pumping stations. • Length of water mains is apprx 375 kms • Water is being metered in the distribution side at the pump houses for bulk

consumers but not at individual houses. Flat rate is being charged from individuals varying with type of accommodation.

• Ground Water is being extracted to the tune of 3.5 MGD and the same is

being chlorinated and mixed with the DJB water to meet our present requirement.

• Quality in general is potable but in some pockets it is brackish. • Distribution losses are very less may be 5%. • For Bulk consumers rate of Rs 6.50 per KL is charged.

[Source Garrision Engineer, MES] • Delhi Cantt Bd maintains 21 Tube wells, 7 Over Head Tanks (OHTs) 9

Underground Reservoirs (UGRs), & 21 Booster Pumping Stations. For Naraina Village DCB receives 0.9 MGD of water from Naraina Reservoir.[ As per DJB]

• Thus 7.8 + 3.5 + 0.9 = 12.2 plus water abstracted from 21 tube wells by DCB

MGD of water supply is utilised for a population of 1,51,605 in the year 2006, i.e. an average of 80 GPCD / 365 LPCD approx.

8.11 SPECIAL PROVISIONS Relating to NDMC, DCB and MES (In brief)

The DJB shall be bound to supply water to the NDMC and DCB, MES at the place or places act, which immediately before the commencement of the DJB Act, the Delhi Water Supply & Swerage Disposal undertaking of the MCD used to supply water in bulk. Provided that the quantity of water supply shall not be less than the quantity supplied before commence of the Act. The board shall be bound to receive in bulk all sewerage from these bodies for treatment and disposal

8.12 ISSUES REQUIRING ATTENTION

1. There is urgent need to invoke Interstate agreement for construction of Storage Reservoirs / dams in the Upper reaches of River Yamuna, like Kishau, Dadhau, Lakhwar Vyasi etc., though identified years before and incorporated in the MOU for sharing of Yamuna waters, have yet to be decided for construction.

This is important since the existing capacity is inadequate to meet the present water requirements.

2. To expedite construction of Parallel WJC and with the consent of

Haryana to draw water for the constructed WTPs at Bawana and Nangloi (remaining 20 MGD). This will also improve availability of raw water at Wazirabad Barrage after linking WJC with the river.

3. The output of the WTPs is based on the designed capacity. These plants

have been progressively constructed over the last 50 years or more and there is a need to correctly assess the output of each of the WTPs.

4. Losses in treatment of water at the WTPs have been considered by the

DJB at 8% as per CPHHEO manual, however actual losses need to be ascertained.

5. As per studies carried out by the Consultants, 16% leakage is in

Transmission mains and another 24% leakages in the distribution mains, totaling to 40%. This is a considerably high rate of loss and needs to be brought down to 15% as suggested in the Manual of Water Supply & Treatment issued by the CPHHEO, MoUD, Govt. of India.

6. The water supply is intermittent and leads to avoidable wastage, besides

posing risk to health.

7. There is in equitability in water supply and calls for rationalisation of water supply.

Chapter – 8 City Water Supply System

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

8-10

8. The successive Master plan documents have been emphasizing on dispersal of population, however MPD 2021 aims at a prospective population of 23 million. Either the Infrastructure facility should be available as per or in excess of requirement or the future population needs REVIEW for being toned down in accordance with availability of Infrastructure services.

9. Though rain water harvesting is the need of the hour, utmost care and

precaution is the necessity to ensure that the ground water is not polluted. This calls for extensive training in provision and more so in operation of such structures besides effective monitoring.

10. Water pricing / tariff structure needs to be self sustainable and atleast

meet O&M costs in full. A tariff regulatory commission may be set up so that the tariff set by the DJB are accepted by the people.

11. Uninterrupted power supply with stable voltage is a necessity for proper

& smooth operation of WTPs & Booster pumping stations.

12. Years before (In 1967), during the tenure of Dr K.L.Rao, Union Minister for Irrigation & Power, a proposal was considered to establish an impounded reservoir in the Aravali hills of Dhauj & Kot near Faridabad to store the flood waters of river Yamuna and set up a 100 MGD WTP to meet water requirements of South Delhi. This was not steered through on account of Geological considerations. This can be reexamined using the latest techniques of engineering & geology and if through, people of South Delhi & Faridabad could be benefited and the storage could be established as a joint venture of the Govts of Delhi & Haryana.

ANNEX 8.1

CHANGE IN INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES IN WATER SUPPLY

Delhi Jal Board - With the enactment of the Delhi water Board Act 1998, all functions and responsibilities of the DWS & SDU were assumed by the Delhi Jal Board (DJB). As of now Delhi Jal Board (DJB) is responsible for procurement of raw water, treatment and supply to the three constituents and responsible for distribution of water supply and related works in MCD area. DJB is also responsible to collect, transmit, treatment and disposal of waste water from the three constituents and for operation & maintenance of sewer system within the MCD area.

The Delhi Joint Water & Sewerage Board - The Delhi Joint Water and Sewerage Board came into existence in the year 1926 and was responsible for operation and maintenance of Delhi Water Works and supplying water in bulk to the FIVE local bodies in Delhi,which in turn supplied water in their respective areas. Post Independence Scenario - India attained independence from the British rule on the 15th August 1947. Consequent upon partition of the country, there was a tremendous influx of people to Delhi, raising its population of 9.18 lakhs in 1941 to 17.44 lakhs in 1951. This called for substantial augmentation of water supply, which was raised from 35 MGD /159 MLD in 1948 to 60 MGD / 272 MLD in 1955. Jaundice Epidemic & Construction of Wazirabad Barrage - Delhi witnessed a jaundice epidemic in November 1955. On the recommendation of the Jaundice Enquiry Committee, a barrage was constructed across the river Yamuna and completed in 1959. While the barrage created pondage to enable withdrawal of water from the river, it also facilitated in keeping the river course towards the right bank. The Delhi Water Supply & Sewage Disposal Undertaking (DWS & SDU) - With the creation of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) in 1958 by an act of Parliament, numerous local bodies became a part of the MCD, except the New Delhi Municipal Committee and the Cantonment Board. The Delhi Joint Water & Sewerage Board became an undertaking of the MCD and was named as The Delhi Water Supply & Sewage Disposal Undertaking (DWS & SDU) having the responsibility to procure , treat and transmit water for the entire Union Territory of Delhi and to distribute water in the MCD area. With an ever increasing population, growing at an alarming rate of approximately 5% per annum, water shortage started being felt inspite of raising the treatment capacity to 97 MGD / 440 MLD by 1961 for a population of 26.44 lakhs.

Contamination of Water Supply of Delhi in 1964 - Contamination of the Delhi Water Supply occurred in September 1964 and the causes of contamination were enquired by the Committee constituted by the Ministry of Health, Govt. of India under the Chairmanship of Shri P. S. Naskar, Union Deputy Minister of Health. The Committee also went into recommending short term and long term remedial measures.

An important recommendation needs to be undertaken related to Unit Rate of Water supply @ 50 GPCD / 225 LPCD for domestic needs and a separate provision needs to be made for water demand for Industries and Gardening needs. The report also identified future sources of water supply to meet growing water requirements of Delhi till 2001. These sources were Bhakra reservoir, Ramganga project, and dams on river Yamuna and its tributaries such as Kishau dam.

The water requirements for a projected population of 100 lakhs by 2001 AD were

Page 206: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 8 City Water Supply System

8-12

estimated at 766 MGD (3468 MLD) at an overall per capita rate of water supply of 76 GPCD / 345 LPCD.

There was extensive development and construction of housing in the Trans Yamuna area, South Delhi, and South West Delhi which called for identifying additional sources of water supply. Under an agreement with the Govt of UP, a 100 MGD /455 MLD Bhagirathi Water Treatment plant was established in Trans Yamuna area in 1984, drawing raw water from the Upper Ganga Canal through a closed conduit.

In the context of Multistoried houses or a number of housing units in the same plot area, it is clarified that the service charges will be levied as per covered / built up area on each connection sanctioned and for each respective premise in a multistoried complex, on the built up area of each unit having independent connection. Service charge with regard to bulk water connection (excluding NDMC, MES etc.) including Group Housing societies shall be levied for each of the constituent units. DJB employees, residing either in DJB allotted staff quarter or other than DJB accommodation, shall be billed as per the approved water tariff, as in the case of any other consumer. However, as a welfare measure, a concession of 50% on flat rate basis against the total amount of bill will be allowed subject to the condition that the water connection is in the name of employee and water is used for domestic use only. Till such time water meters are installed in the DJB allotted accommodation. The rate of provisional billing will be as under subject to review on the basis of actual consumption as recorded by the installed meter; Type of accommodation Provisional average per month Type I/ II / III 10 KL Type IV /V 20 KL Classification of Consumer Categories Usage of water will be of three categories for billing for various purposes.

CHAPTER - 9 CITY SEWERAGE SYSTEM

9.1 INTRODUCTION

80 % of water supply is returned as waste water, as such 80% of 670 MGD by optimization in 2006 works out to 536 MGD, however there is considerable abstraction of ground water to meet water requirements by individual households. Based on a study conducted in the year 1999 to assess actual quantity of sewage generated, it was observed that as against 580 MGD of planned water supply, the observed sewage generation was 599 MGD. The sewage generation in Delhi has been assessed at 719 MGD in 2005 (by the CPCB - Feb 2005) as against planned water production of 670 MGD of water by DJB indicating water usage of almost 900 MGD of water. With the partial commissioning of Sonia Vihar Water Treatment Plant water supply is augmented by about 65 MGD thus generating another 52 MGD of sewage. Thus in all fairness sewage generation as on date appears to be in the vicinity of 719 + 80% of 65 = 52 + generation on account of additional ground water usage after CPCB report = 800 MGD approximately. The present installed capacity of STPs is 512.6 MGD, thus a wide gap of almost 300 MGD. DJB is responsible for collection, transportation and treatment of sewage for the entire NCTD, and operation & maintenance of system in MCD area.

9.2 SEWAGE COLLECTION SYSTEM

Sewerage facilities are provided through net work of sewers in planned colonies, unauthorised / regularised colonies, urban villages and JJ Resettlement colonies. As per present policy sewers are not provided in unauthorised colonies and rural villages. Year-wise status of sewerage system has been presented in Table 9.1

Sewer System has since been provided in all the 44 JJ resettlement colonies. It was targeted to be provided in all unauthorized - regularised colonies and urban villages by the end of 8th Five Year Plan (1992-97),work is yet to be executed in a number of such areas on account of various considerations, as such sewage generated from such areas finds access into storm water drains ultimately discharging into the river (Refer Table 9.2).

Source : Delhi Jal Board, Delhi 9.2.1 Sewerage Facilities in Rural Villages

As per Census 2001, population of rural Delhi is 9,63,215 the waste water1 generated is 97.5 MLD. Waste water generated has been provided partial on site treatment by providing Septic tanks by individuals and in absence of such facility waste water (sewage) has been flowing through surface drainage system, resulting in pollution of river Yamuna2.

On account of partial treatment from some of the STPs and sewage flows from un-sewered areas and overflows from existing sewer system into surface drains; the river is rendered like an open sewer downstream of Wazirabad barrage till Okhla barrage in Delhi segment of river, which is by far the most polluted segment of the river.

9.2.2 Sanitation in Slum and JJ Cluster About 520 Jansuvidha Complexes containing approx 17,282 w.c.seats and approx 6093 baths provided. 203 Mobile Toilet Vans containing approx. 2842 WC seats provided.

Non availability of NOCs from Land Owning agencies and constraint of space due to over densification of JJ Clusters’s are the major hurdles in provision of such facilities in JJ Clusters (Refer Box 1)

Box 1 : Provision of Pay and Use Jansuvidha Complex in Slum / JJ Cluster To curb the habit of mass defecation in open, Slum & JJ Department initiated for the first time construction of Pay & Use Jansuvidha Complexes w.e.f. 1987 for the benefit of slum/JJ dwellers by utilising the services of NGOs / Voluntary Organisations for construction as well as management, operation and maintenance of services provided therein. It has taken leadership in providing mobile toilet vans containing W.C. Seats for provision of facilities where land pockets are not available in jhuggie clusters or in the absence of facilities.

1 Water supply has been provided in rural villages. So far sewers were not provided in rural villages for want of availability of a minimum 30 GPCD /135 lpcd of water supply. 2 DJB will conduct a detailed survey for providing sewerage services and its treatment facilities in rural villages for which the work of carrying out techno-economic-feasibility study of 189 villages has been awarded to two cosultants on 31.3.2006.

9.3 NEW DELHI MUNICIPAL COUNCIL (NDMC) NDMC population as per census 2001 is 1,71,806. The NDMC receives 115 to 120 MLD water in bulk through 19 bulk meters (as on date 8 meters are reported to be non functional) from the DJB and draws 18 to 20 MLD of groundwater drawn from 137 tube wells (effective No. 122) to supplement water supply in its area having 352 km length of water mains (4 inches to 42 inches in diameter) and operates 23 UGR & BPS. The distribution system is maintained by the NDMC. 80% of water supplied by DJB is considered as sewerage received from NDMC. In effect 80% of ground water drawn from tube wells should also be considered. Sewer system is in existence having a length of 350 km varying from 4 inches to 2100 mm in diameter. Sewer System including two Sewage Pumping Stations is operated and maintained by NDMC. Brick sewers are old and settlements are occasionally observed both on brick sewers as well as NP2 class RCC sewers. Sewage is delivered to DJB for treatment.

9.4 DELHI CANTONMENT BOARD (DCB)

80% of water supplied (7.8 mgd average) is considered as sewerage received from DCB. In effect 80% of ground water drawn from tube wells should also be considered. Sewerage is being disposed off in the central sewerage line along the station road going to Keshopur STP.

9.5 SPECIAL PROVISIONS Relating to NDMC, DCB and MES (In brief) The DJB shall be bound to supply water to the NDMC and DCB, MES at the place or places act, which immediately before the commencement of the DJB Act, the Delhi Water Supply & Swerage Disposal undertaking of the MCD used to supply water in bulk. Provided that the quantity of water supply shall not be less than the quantity supplied before commence of the Act. The board shall be bound to receive in bulk all sewerage from these bodies for treatment and disposal

9.6 TREATMENT SYSTEM

About 65% population is covered by sewerage system including on site treatment by septic tanks, and sewage generated from the remaining population is going through a number of surface drains into the river.

At present there are 17 Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs), equipped to treat 512.4 MGD of sewage capacities varying from 2.2 MGD to 140 MGD.

Keshopur STP is in urgent need of renovation and as of now does not treat sewage to desired standards resulting in partially treated sewage going into surface drains. As of now 800 - 346 = 454 MGD of untreated sewage and another 72 to 74 MGD of partially treated sewage, ie; 454 + 72 = 526 MGD sewage goes to the river system through 19 outfall drains (16 directly into the river and 3 into Agra canal).

Source: Delhi Jal Board, Delhi From the above it is observed that the capacity of sewage treatment has not kept pace with growth of water supply. Apparently due to meeting water requirements of the growing population getting priority. The existing capacity needs to be optimally utilized and steps taken to augment the same to meet requirements by 2011 & 2021 complying with standards of treatment (Refer Box 2).

Box 2 : CPCB Observation on the Sewage in Delhi

“CPCB observed that less than 50% of entire sewage of Delhi is being collected and treated. Therefore to achieve the maximum removal of pollution load with the funds available, it was recommended to make arrangements for treatment of the entire sewage upto secondary level to achieve BOD <20 mg/l and SS <30 mg/l on priority basis rather than treating part of sewage to tertiary level to achieve BOD,10 mg/l, TSS<15 mg/l and FC<2500 MPN/100 ml while leaving significant part of sewage untreated. Afterwards, when secondary treatment facility for at leat 90% of sewage is installed, all the STPs need to be augmented with tertiary treatment facilities for removal of FC to a standard 2500 MPN/100 ml so that the main objective of maintaining quality of Yamuna River may be fulfilled.”

9.10 PERFORMANCE OF CETP'S AT FULL DESIGN LOAD

A comprehensive performance evaluation of the CETPs of Delhi was taken up by the CPCB in two phases from June 27th to July 6th and from August 25 to 28, 2005 to assess their capability for effective treatment at full capacity during their operation. A detailed report is included in the “Performance Status of Common Effluent Treatment Plants in India” published by CPCB in January, 2006. DSIDC is accountable to the Deptt of Industries, Govt of NCT of Delhi

9.11 ISSUES REQUIRING ATTENTION 1. Whereas sewage generation is 719 MGD as per CPCB publication, Feb

2005, the cumulative inflow at the STPs is around 346 MGD only out of which 72 MGD is partially treated at Keshopur STP. Thus in effect only 346 – 76 = 270 MGD of sewage is fully treated.

2. Present day generation of sewage is estimated at 800 MGD, as such 800 –

270 = 530 MGD of untreated sewage is polluting the river Yamuna.

3. Keshopur STP is in URGENT need of renovation and restoration of designed capacity.

4. Owing to overflow from sewers into storm water drains (SWDs), there is

urgent need to segregate the sewage flow from entering into SWDs.

5. Govt. of NCT of Delhi may review the policy of laying sewers in un authorised colonies as a matter of pollution abatement.

6. Process of laying sewers in unauthorized – regularised colonies, urban

villages may be reviewed and impediments removed in completing the remaining work. As many as 61 unauthorised – regularised colonies and 30 urban villages are yet to be provided with sewerage system.

7. The trunk sewers are reported to be considerably silted, and need to be

desilted, repaired and renovated, where ever required, to restore their capacity in a time bound manner.

8. Efficiency of STPs and Sewage Pumping Stations may be verified (as

many of them are several years old) to ascertain to actual quantity of sewage pumped and reaching the STPs. Presently, inflows are based on rated capacity of pumping.

9. There is need to generate power from the sewage gas obtained from the

sludge digestors to tide over power problems as also as a measure of abatement of air pollution.

10. Utilisation of treated sewage effluents for gardening and agricultural

need may not only be explored but implemented as early as possible so that irrigation demand is met from treated effluents.

11. The design capacity of CETPs needs to be optimally utilized and the

conveyance system needs to be checked for full capacity utilization.

12. A suitable methodology needs to be worked out for scientific disposal of sludge (rich in chemicals, heavy metals etc.) From these CETPs.

13. Un-interrupted power supply and stable voltage at STPs and SPSs is a

necessity to maintain sewerage treatment pumping of sewerage.

CHAPTER - 10 STORM WATER DRAINAGE

10.1 INTRODUCTION

Storm water drainage of Delhi is a complex situation, owing to the combination of a number of natural and man-made drainage systems – five drainage basins, large natural drains, storm water drains along the roads and combined sewer cum storm water drains (sometimes as a bypass arrangement for blocked sewer lines). However, most of the water collected through different drainage systems finally get discharged into the river Yamuna. Historically it is said that the drainage system of Old Delhi was largely developed by the Mughals whereas of New Delhi by the British. There are a number of basic problems with the drains of city. A majority of the large drains are not lined. Also, there are a large number of mid-size drains that are either unlined or have damaged lining. Often the construction debris in the new drains is not cleared before commissioning and garbage is dumped on the road sides which easily find their way into the adjacent drains. Even road sweepings are pushed into the drains. The drain slabs are not repaired on time leaving convenient openings for pushing garbage and trash matter, construction debris etc. inside the drain. Open drains have become receptacles of garbage till they are completely filled up, leading to overflowing of sullage and storm water. As a result, in the rainy season the drains are unable to take the flow and spill over, flooding the roads. The drainage system in the slums is either absent or inadequate. In some areas the levels of the road have gone up with repair and renovation or new roads have been built. Even in some DDA colonies like Pitampura and Shalimar Bagh, water logging persists even after repeated attempts to redress the situation. Flooding of the roads and water logging of colonies, even with showers of medium intensity, is quite common, leading to difficult living conditions, inconvenience and traffic congestion. Spread of diseases like malaria, filaria, dengue and annual recurrence of gastro-enteric diseases is a testimony to the failed drainage system. It appears that a comprehensive overview of the situation is lacking and only piecemeal solutions have been attempted at different points of development of the city. This is amply illustrated by the example in the following paragraph.

A number of drains discharging into the Najafgarh drain and the Yamuna River are being diverted to the sewerage system with an intention of treating the dirty water in the sewage treatment plants and subsequently reducing the pollution load of the receiving water bodies, particularly Yamuna. However, the diverted drains (already completed ones) are actually not functional either due to blockage

10-2

or settlement of the sewer lines or some other problems. These drains carry a huge pollution load into the Yamuna (Table 10.3).

10.2 SITUATION ANALYSIS OF THE EXISTING SYSTEM

The responsibility of construction and maintenance of the large drains (natural) is with the Irrigation and Flood Control Department of the Delhi Government. However disposal of the silt removed from these drains is the responsibility of the respective Municipal Bodies, under whose jurisdiction the de-silting is done. Delhi Jal Board looks after drains with more than 1000 cusec discharge. The Public Works Department (Delhi Government) is responsible for the drains in some identified areas. The three Local Bodies – Municipal Corporation of Delhi, New Delhi Municipal Council and Delhi Cantonment Board – have the mandate to look after the construction and maintenance (including de-silting) of the drains in their respective areas, which are aligned with the roads. The last Master Plan for storm water drainage of Delhi was prepared by the Master Plan Organization set up by the Irrigation and Flood Control Department during the period 1972-1976 (finalized in 1977). An Expert Committee was set up by the Delhi Administration to give guidance to this activity. This Master Plan took into account the urbanization limits up to the year 1981. However, while according approval, the Committee of Experts suggested that a fresh review of the drainage issues be taken while doing the Master Plan – 2021. Till date the Master Plan for storm water drainage of Delhi has not been revised. Keeping in view the inadequacy of storm water drainage, particularly in the unplanned (un-authorized or regularized) and some other colonies of the city, which is highlighted during the rains every year, a revised master plan needs to be prepared at the earliest. This master plan should consider urbanization limits till 2021. There is also a need to develop run-off norms for Delhi before making a new plan. A Committee of Experts may be set up under the Chairmanship of Member (RM), Central Water Commission (who has a fully equipped Hydrology Directorate working under him), with Chief Engineers of all the Civic Agencies to finalize the run-off norms and also the terms of reference for the preparation of the revised master plan for storm water drainage in Delhi. At the same time the extent of urbanization and industrialization have to be ascertained from the various local authorities, such as, MCD, NDMC, DCB, DDA, DSIDC, PWD, Irrigation and Flood department etc. Proper disposal of storm water is one of the crucial components of urban infrastructure services. In most part of the city, wherever low lying colonies have been developed by the Civic Agencies, the responsibility of disposal of storm water lies with the Municipal Corporation of Delhi. Pumping facilities are required for such situations although non-availability of adequate space (about 1000 sq.m.) is a constraint and stagnation of water persists. Consequently, the residents have to suffer. One way out would be to provide such space so that the pumping facilities can be set up. One of the fundamental issues normally neglected in our country is the comprehensive design of roads, drains, sewers and other utility network like water pipe, electric and communication cables etc. and their careful and

Chapter – 10 Storm Water Drainage

10-3

meticulous execution. Instead, the foundation as well as the surface of the roads, are not proper leading to early damage due to movement and weather conditions. Bad surface of the roads lead to more dust and debris during road sweepings and also further damage to the surface. At least part of this dust and debris get into the adjacent drains. At the same time suitable ducts / pipes should be provided under the foot path to accommodate cables, pipes etc. so that the road is not dug up time and again.

10.3 EXISTING DRAINAGE INFRASTRUCTURE

Delhi, topography created a drainage system that carried rain and storm water from the higher elevations of the West to the Yamuna, providing a natural drainage. While the Eastern, low-lying side was originally a part of the flood plain of the river and considered un-inhabitable due to frequent floods. However, settlements in this area also began with the immigration after year 1947. Today, this Eastern wing which is also known as the Trans Yamuna area houses about 20% of the total population of Delhi.

10.3.1 Natural Drainage System

The city has been divided into six drainage zones (i) Northern Zone, (ii) Western Zone, (iii) Central North West and South East Zone, (iv) Central South and South East Zone, (v) East Zone and (vi) South Zone. The length of natural drain in the city is 350 km carrying discharge of 1000 m3. Table 10.1 presents the catchment area of the natural drains in the city.

Table 10.3 shows that the BOD level in four of the ten drains is in the range of 100-200, in two of the drains in the range of 200-300 and in three out of ten drains above 300 mg/litre. Thus in 90 % of these drains the discharge is comparable to a range of weak to strong domestic sewage.

• For a fast growing mega city spread over 1483 square kilometers with built areas, undulated and ridge areas, having multiple drainage basins and finally holding a population of 14 millions, it is a very complex task to have a detailed overview of the overall drainage situation and translate this into a workable comprehensive drainage plan.

• Detailed information regarding the topography of the whole city, invert

levels of all the natural and man-made drains, invert levels of the corresponding sewer lines, information about linkage of underground sewer drains and storm water drains would be required through a meticulous survey.

• The task becomes even more complicated due to the actual situation of

storm water drainage described above. Storm water drainage is meant to carry storm water (rain water) and any other clean surface water. It is fundamentally not suitable or designed for carrying sewage or industrial waste water or even septic tank effluent. Even the effluent from the sewage treatment plant can not be discharged into it unless it meets the norms set by the BIS code and the Central Pollution Control Board.

• Therefore one of the urgent tasks should be to make plans for diversion of

all waste water (both domestic and industrial) from surface drains.

• Roads and drains need to be planned, designed and constructed together so that there is a proper linkage between them and they serve the purpose of not only drainage and collection of surface water on the roads but also facilitate road sweeping and separate collection of solid waste.

• Some of the drains are from the Mughal period and have heritage value.

These need to be revived in a suitable manner keeping in view their historical content and their present context. These could, for example be vehicles of ground water recharge through a green sheet of grass and shrubs and a functional lined drain in the middle to carry the lean time discharge.

• There should be strict instructions to the construction agencies to clear all debris and construction material from within the drains before covering the slabs. This is crucial for proper functioning of the drains.

• For cleaning / desilting of major covered drains, 6 nos. of 'Super Sucker's

are recommended.

• A report entitled 'Waste Water Management : South Delhi Greenway Project' prepared by the IIT, Delhi has outlined an innovative way to rejuvenate the natural drainage system for Barapulla drain through waste water treatment and modification of the cross section of the drain. Similar projects should be prepared for all the major drains mentioned at Table 10.3 above so that the problem can be solved from the very root in a long term sustainable way.

• An appropriate 'Drainage Authority of NCT' should be created to deal with

all sewer, storm water and natural drains within the NCT area in a comprehensive manner.

CHAPTER - 11 REVIEW OF ROAD NETWORK

AND TRANSPORT SYSTEM 11.1 INTRODUCTION

Delhi being the capital city is the center of socio economic, cultural and political activities of the country. The city also acts as a major center of trade and commerce and is the nodal point for five national highways and intercity rail corridors, carrying large volumes of heterogeneous passenger and goods traffic. The national highways and other major road network carry intra city and intercity traffic traversing to and from the different parts of the country.

The transport system of Delhi consists of a well-developed transport network system, based on ring and radial pattern, large fleet of buses (DTC & CNG) and a suburban rail system including MRTS. The majority share of travel needs of Delhi commuters is met by road based transport systems.

There has been a major improvement in transport infrastructure in recent years in terms of flyovers, road widening, new roads development and development of metro rail corridors along major routes of travel in the city. Due to continuous increase in population, employment opportunities and number of vehicles, there is a constant increase in demand over the years; and infrastructure has not grown in adequate proportions making the existing network system function beyond its capacity. This has led to serious traffic problems of congestion, delays, safety, pollution and system management. The transportation system being multidisciplinary and multidimensional requires integration and co-ordination amongst the various agencies. Multi agency planning and implementation add to overall inefficiency due to interagency interests and conflicts. The major activities and agencies involved in this sector are presented in Table 11.1.

• Delhi Integrated Multimodal Transport system limited (DIMTS), a new agency, has been created for management of new public transport systems in the city of Delhi with a budget of 150 crore1. However, the scope of this agency is limited to mass transport systems in Delhi --- there is an urgent need for Delhi Unified Metropolitan Transport Authority whose scope can even be extended to DMA and NCR towns for coordination and implementation of projects and priorities. Until such an agency/authority is established a policy level committee may be set up involving various agencies.

11.2 SITUATION ANALYSIS – TRANSPORT NETWORKS

Delhi is predominantly dependant on road based transport systems as the railways caters to only about 1% of local traffic demand. The poly-nucleated urban structure of Delhi has a hierarchical system of commercial and shopping centers besides well-distributed industrial areas. Widespread distribution of employment centers all over the urban space of Delhi has contained the growth in length of trips. The residential areas are located around the economic activities. The shorter trip lengths and inadequate public transport system has fueled the growth of private modes of travel at a rapid rate in the city.

Transport network of Delhi consists of road network and rail network catering to intra city and inter city movement of traffic. The freight traffic is also substantial as Delhi acts as collection and distribution center.

11.2.1 Road Network The road network in Delhi is being developed and maintained by NHAI, DDA, PWD, MCD, NDMC and Delhi cantonment Board. There are nine major inter urban corridors catering to major intercity traffic. These are NH1, NH2, NH8, NH10, NH24, NH24 BYPASS, NH58, NH57 and Loni road (SH) connecting Delhi to DMA & NCR Towns and to the rest of the country. In addition, traffic enters the city through other arterials and sub arterials roads at more than forty locations. The road network in Delhi was 28,500 Km. in March 20012. The road network has increased from 8380 Km. in 1971-72 to 28,500 Km. in 2001 (three times). The road network can be categorized into four types i.e. Arterial roads, sub arterial roads, minor arterial roads and collector roads. About 1100 Km. of road length are provided with right of way 30 m and above, while another 1000 Km. form the major links carrying the traffic in Delhi. Road network accounts for about 21% of the total area, which is above average of 12 to 15 % for urban areas. This translates into a road density of 19.2 Km. per Sq. Km (for 1483 sq. kms); and 38 kms per Sq. Km, considering the current urban area of 750 sq. kms. Being already on the high side, this limits the potential for increase in road length.

The road network comprising of ring and radial pattern has C.P. as focal point with Mathura road, Lal Bhadur Shastri Marg, Aurobindo Marg, Rao Tula Ram Marg, Gurgaon Road (NH-8) Patel road, Shankar road, Rohtak Road, G.T.Road ( NH1 ), Loni road, Shahadra road, NH 24 bypass forming the radials whereas Mahatma Gandhi Road ( Ring Road ), Outer Ring road, Noida road- Bund road forming the prominent rings. These radial and ring roads serve as major arterials carrying bulk of traffic in the city.

The expansion of the road network and the growth of vehicular traffic in Delhi has resulted in the installation of traffic signals at short distances. There are more than 700 signalized intersections located all over Delhi to control traffic operations and ensure smooth flow of traffic. These signalized intersections have led to excessive time and fuel consumption for all vehicular trips. The Delhi Traffic Police has introduced Area Traffic Control (ATC) System in Central Delhi covering about 48 intersections to provide real time green phases to cater to changing traffic needs. To provide uninterrupted movement of traffic, a special program to construct flyovers was initiated in Delhi. During the 9th five-year plan, 11 flyovers/ROB/Grade separators were constructed in Delhi by various agencies (PWD, DDA, DTTDC and MCD). This program of construction of flyovers has been continuing in the 10th Five Year Plan and 10 flyovers were constructed and 12 flyovers are under construction at various locations in Delhi. However, the absence of right turning loops at many of the flyovers are causing enormous delays for right turning traffic. REGIONAL CONNECTIVITY Existing road network for connectivity of Delhi with rest of the region is a four lane or six lane divided carreiageway. NHAI is converting the road connecting Delhi to Gurgaon into an eight-lane Toll expressway that is of 28 Km. length (18 Km. in Haryana and 10 Km. in Delhi). The project is being constructed on BOT basis. DMA towns of Faridabad, Rohtak, Sonepat, Gaziabad, NOIDA are well connected with Delhi having multiple road linkages. To reduce the load of intercity traffic through in nature and for speedy interaction between NCR towns and Delhi new ring road / peripheral road projects are under process of implementation as follows : i) Faridabad – NOIDA – Gaziabad – This is an Eastern Peripheral Expressway

with a total length of 106 Km. and is being implemented by formation of SPV between NCRPB,MOUD,ILFS and state Govt. of Haryana,U.P.and Delhi.

ii) Palwal – Manesar - Kundli – This is Western Peripheral Expressway and is

being implemented by NHAI connecting NH 1, 8 and 10.

Figure 11.1 : Road Network Map of Delhi 11.2.2 Rail Network

The rail network consists of both broad gauge and meter gauge railway lines. Delhi is a major junction on the rail map of India linked with all the metropolitan cities directly Delhi is connected by 8 radial lines extending to suburban areas spreading to states of U.P. and Haryana. These radials are: a) Delhi Gaziabad Khurja b) Delhi Gaziabad Hapur c) Delhi Gaziabad Meerut d) Delhi Shahadra Shamli e) Delhi Sonepat Panipat f) Delhi Nangloi Rohtak g) Delhi Gurgaon Rewari h) Delhi Nizamuddin Okhla Palwal.

The rail network has two specifically identified lines known as the Goods Avoiding Lines (GAL) and Delhi Avoiding Lines (DAL) forming a ring in the city and ring rail system in Delhi. The GAL provides a direct entry from Gaziabad to New Delhi bypassing the congested Delhi Railway Station Complex. The DAL provides a direct passage from the major yards- Tughlakabad and Gaziabad directly into the Delhi – Ambala Kalka section and through Lajpat Nagar, Patel Nagar, Daya Basti and Azadpur link. There are four main railway stations at New Delhi, Old Delhi, Hazrat Nizamuddin and Sarai Rohilla besides container depots at Patparganj and Tuglakbad. To improve connectivity of Delhi with the region rail projects for commuter travel have been identified as a part of regional rapid transit system. The

priority corridors in the projects include Delhi Palwal, Delhi Panipat, and Delhi Gaziabad. Besides there are proposals to extend the metro corridors to NOIDA and Gurgaon to cater to the demand of travel. These projects are under various stages of implementation. Two IRBT corridors of movement from Pul Bangash- Subzi Mandi –Narela and Badarpur to Tilak Bridge are included as a part of IMMRTS plan to be implemented by Railways by 2010.

11.3 TRAFFIC CHARACTERISTICS

11.3.1 Vehicular Growth Trends There has been an exponential growth in number of vehicles on the road in Delhi, which increased from 2.14 lakh in 1971 to 5.36 lakh in 1981, 17.64 lakh in 1991, 34.54 lakh in 2001 and 45.5 lakh in 2005. This represents an annual compound growth of 6.5%, while the road length has increased at a rate of 2 % per annum. The total number of vehicles in Delhi is more than the total no. of vehicles in other three major metropolitan cities of Mumbai, Calcutta and Chennai, with a predominance of two wheelers and cars, used as private passenger vehicles. The growth trends of motor vehicles at National and mega city levels are presented in Table 11.2 and Figure 11.2. Table 11.2: Growth Trends of Motor Vehicles- India & Megacities (in ‘000)

The trends of registered motor vehicles in Delhi is presented in Table 11.3. It can be observed that decennial growth rate is substantially higher in case of private vehicles (94.54%) as compared to commercial vehicles (18.22%). In the category of private vehicles, cars and jeeps has registered a decennial growth of 142.92%, which is highest among all categories of vehicles followed by two wheelers with 77.61%. In the commercial category of vehicles, buses have registered a decennial growth rate of 62.5% followed by taxies (33.33%) and goods vehicles (16.24%). Though there is decline in animal drawn vehicles; the number of slow moving vehicles is continuously on the increase, owing to the addition of cycles and cycle rickshaws every year. The percentage distribution of categories of motor vehicles in Delhi shows that there has been a rapid increase in the number of cars during the decade while there has been a decline in the other categories of vehicles. About two third of motor vehicles are two wheelers though a decreasing trend in that share has been observed since 1990. On the other hand, due to the arrival of low priced small cars and easy financing mechanisms, there is an indication towards a shift from two wheelers to cars. The share of cars has increased from 22% in 1991 to 31% in 2005. Table 11.3: Trends of Registered Motor Vehicles in Delhi (In ‘000) Year Car Sc/Mc 3 Whlr.

11.3.2 Road Accident Trends The heterogeneity and magnitude of vehicle population, the unpredictability of human behavior, poor road geometry, deficiencies in vehicle and road design, and economic constraints are some of the factors leading to road accidents in Delhi. High growth rate of population & motor vehicles and road traffic vis-à-vis the road system and greater complexity of vehicular traffic on roads have contributed to the increasing number of accidents and especially the fatality rates. Table 11.4 shows the traffic accident trends in Delhi between 1980 and 2001. It can be observed that there are 28 accidents per day and 4 fatalities per day due to accidents. Details of accidents reveals that pedestrians, cyclist and two wheeler riders are the most vulnerable road users accounting for 55%, 10% and 24% of total causalities in 1999. Fatalities mostly occurred among pedestrians followed by two wheeler riders. One of the most vulnerable groups w.r.t. irresponsible driving is the school child. The major killer roads (1999) include Ring Road, Outer Ring Road, Najafgarh road, Mathura road and Rohtak road. In the absence of adequate infrastructure facilities and procedural delays, accidents handling causes traffic hold ups and related pollution effects. Table 11.4: Trends in Accidents on Delhi Roads

11.3.3 Traffic Characteristics

Delhi transport needs are basically met by road-based systems while the rail-based systems serve marginal needs. The basic modes of traffic in Delhi are buses, private vehicles, taxis, auto rickshaws, cycle rickshaws and cycles. The inadequacy of public transport becomes evident during peak hours when buses carry crush loads on them with passengers hanging on footboards and roads are choked with traffic moving at very low speeds.

Traffic Volume Traffic intensities on the major roads of Delhi show constant increase. The construction of flyovers at various locations has only slowed down the process of congestion and delay. The adverse conditions have shifted from intersections to other locations. The roads capacities have reduced by encroachments and parking. A study was conducted on the city wide network in 2002 by C.R.R.I. for Govt. of India to assess urban road traffic. The traffic volumes recorded at 51 locations of Delhi are presented in Table 11.5. It can be observed from the Table that roads are carrying more than one lakh vehicles in the inner and middle areas of Delhi. Traffic is most critical on bridges across Yamuna – I.T.O. Bridge carrying the maximum traffic followed by Nizamuddin Bridge. The traffic is constantly increasing at a rate of about 2.5% per annum and heavy intensity of traffic is adding to the environment degradation of the city and in fact traffic is the largest contributor to pollution levels in Delhi. After the construction of Metro corridor from Connaught Place to Ashok Nagar and new signature bridge near Wazirabad the traffic across river Yamuna is expected to ease out on existing bridges.

Traffic Composition

A broad analysis of the composition of vehicles in the inner, middle and outer areas are presented in Figure 11.6. It can be observed that proportion of cars has increased throughout Delhi and proportion of Intermediate Public Transport (IPT) modes like auto rickshaws / taxis has gone down from 1991 to 2002. The proportion of two wheelers has remained more or less same during the decade.

Figure 11.6 : Comparison of Traffic Composition on major arterial roads in Delhi–1991 & 2002

Peak Hour Traffic Characteristics

Peak Hour Traffic volumes of Ring Road are presented in Table 11.6 and peak hour traffic on some prominent roads in the Central areas is given in Table 11.7. The traffic pattern on the Inner Ring shows that there is a steady increase in the v/c (volume / capacity) ratio from 1990 to 2004. In Central areas the volumes have reached saturation levels on major roads. Heavy traffic is observed at all major locations on the outer cordons of Delhi and most of the locations are choked with traffic in peak hours. This is evident from Table 11.8 - it can be observed that the v/c ratio during peak hours at most of the prominent locations is more than one. The traffic characteristics at these urban arterials highlights the intense interaction of Delhi with Gurgaon, Faridabad, Noida, Loni and Gaziabad. Intercity traffic enters Delhi from 87 locations, of which 42 locations have tolling stations of GNCTD. Table 11.6: Peak Hour Traffic Volumes on Ring Road

Traffic at Intersections

City main intersections are loaded with traffic much beyond their handling capacities leading to heavy stopped delays especially in peak hours. Most intensely loaded intersections in terms of number of vehicles are I.T.O. intersection (1,98,970),Moti Nagar intersection (176,866), Jhandewalan Intersection (1,70,296), Jageer Palace intersection (1,69,935) , Laxmi Nagar intersection (1,55,852), Madhuban Chowk (1,46,693), Azadpur Intersection (1,42,163), Tagore Park intersection (1,40,613), Ashram Chowk (1,39,749) and Africa Avenue –Outer Ring Road Intersection (1,37,986). The traffic volumes were recorded in 12 hour duration in 2002 by CRRI in their study for Auto Fuel Policy for GOI.

11.3.4 Traffic speeds

Speed characteristics on the major arterial road network of city are presented in Table 11.9. It can be observed that during morning and evening peak hours 55 % to 60 % of the major arterials have travel speeds less than 30 kmph, while in even off peak hours 40 to 45 % of major arterials have travel speeds less than 30 kmph. About 20% or more of the arterial road network is operating under highly congested conditions with travel speeds falling below 20 kmph throughout the day. There is very little change in speeds during peak and off peak periods and the network is operating at its capacity. Any disturbance in traffic flows create long queues and delays to traffic.

11.3.5 Parking Daily trips made by personalized modes require parking spaces at both ends of the trip. There is a huge gap in the demand and supply of parking spaces which leads to spill over of parking on the road. There is lack of proper planning and management of parking facilities. Inadequate and inefficient public transport systems leads to greater use of private modes of transport. A car is parked for 90 to 95% of time at residence or place of work. Land resources in the city are limited and scarce, while the increase in parking demand is high. Inadequate parking adds to congestion and delays on major arterial roads. Current parking demand and supply at some of the prominent locations of the city are presented in Table 11.10. Table 11.10: Parking Demand at Prominent Locations in Delhi

11.4 TRAVEL CHARACTERISTICS

11.4.1 Intra Urban Movements

As per the household survey in the study area conducted in 2001 by RITES Limited, a total of 176 lakh trips are being performed per day. The per capita trip rate in the study area has been estimated at 1.27 (PCTR of 1.1 in 1993-94). The per capita trip rate for vehicular trips is observed to be 0.87 compared to 0.76 PCTR in 1993-94. PCTR of inter zonal trips is estimated at 0.76 while that of intra zonal trips is 0.51.

The modal share of passenger trips in the study area is presented in Table 11.11. About 33% of total trips are walk trips, while among the vehicular trips 60% of trips are performed by buses including charted and school buses plying in the area. Personalised vehicle trips have a share of 27 % of vehicular trips in the study area. Table 11.11: Modal Share of Passenger Trips

Source : RITES Survey, 2001 The modal share of public transport system has to be increased and given priority in all our plans and policies to meet the increasing demands of traffic. Walk trips also constitute for more than one third of the total trips performed per day and accordingly pedestrian facilities need to be improved from place of origin to destination.

11.4.2 Intercity Movements The outer cordon surveys conducted at 15 locations of Delhi border revealed that 1.53 million trips were performed on an average day. Out of these 67% are performed by public transport and the rest were by private modes. About 13 %

Source : RITES survey,2005 Survey at 43 railway stations in Delhi revealed that about 1.0 million trips were performed by rail per day. Out of these about 9% trips were moving within the city while the rest 91% were intercity trips. FREIGHT MOVEMENT Rail Terminals are controlling a bulk of freight traffic which terminates at various locations in Delhi like Tuglaqabad, Delhi Cantt., Narela, Ghevra, I.P.Depot, Naya Azadpur, Shakurbasti and Delhi Safdarjung. A large share of freight movement by road is handled by entry points at NH-8, NH-1, NH-24 and Kalindi Kunj. On an average day (in 2004) about one lakh goods vehicles crossed the Delhi Borders with an average day payload of 1.5 lakh tones. Freight movement on major arterials is presented in Table 11.14. It can be observed that modal share of goods traffic is varying from 4% to 33 % at different locations.

11.4.3 Public Transport & Para Transit System In any large city, mass transport facilities play an important role in catering to travel demand for work, education and social activities. The present mass

Page 246: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 11 Review of Road Network & Transport System

11-18

transport system in Delhi comprises of bus service by Delhi Transport Corporation; private operators and contract carriages; and rail services through ring railway and suburban trains operated by Northern Railway; and Delhi Metro Rail operated by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation. The existing public transport system is grossly inadequate in terms of quality, quantity and coverage, and can not cope with ever increasing travel demand.

11.4.4 City Bus Service Till 1992, Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) was the primary agency for providing the mass transport service, when private buses under the control of the Transport Department were first introduced to supplement the DTC fleet. Today DTC operates 786 city and 131 inter state routes with average route length of 22.4 Km. and 296.4 km. respectively. As per records, in January 2000 the fleet strength of DTC comprised of 3088 DTC buses; and 2593 private buses under DTC operation, totaling to 5681. The present DTC fleet is plagued with overage buses resulting in inefficiency in operation and economic loss. Besides DTC, intercity bus service is also provided by nearly 2600 individually owned private buses. The existing system suffers from: • Lengthy, zigzag and overlapping destination oriented routes: • Maldistribution, low frequency of buses along different routes • Absence of published information • Disorganized private bus operation • Fierce competition, over speeding and non-observance of traffic rules by

private operators • Inadequate enforcement and regulatory

machinery. A new corridor of High Capacity Bus System is being implemented from Ambedkar Nagar to Moolchand Hospital in 2006. Also a new company has been formed by Transport Department Govt. of Delhi to integrate mass transport by various modes of travel, named Delhi Integrated Multimodal Transport Systems Ltd. (DIMTS).

11.4.5 Ring Railway The ring railway was constructed in the 1930’s as the goods avoiding line but its role in intra-urban service is being emphasized since last 40 years. The existing

Page 247: City Development Plan Delhi

11-19

system which was built at the cost of 340 million rupees and was expected to cater about 12% of the total commuter load, has proved a non-starter, catering to less than 1% of the load. The reason for this are; • Dependence on availability of goods avoiding lines • Absence of integration with feeder bus operations • Absence of commuter facilities at stations • Inconvenient access of platforms to commuters. • Lack of development along the railway corridor • Unattractive fare structure • Competitive and attractive parallel bus service The ring railway service could be significantly improved by integrating it with radial lines and MRTS systems.

11.4.6 Delhi Metro Rail

As many as 35 studies were conducted by various agencies since 1960 to find a lasting solution to the transport problems of Delhi but none of them reached any purposeful stage .The first decisive step to introduce an MRTS was taken after the feasibility study by RITES, which was completed in 1990. It recommended a rail based system, comprising of a network of underground, elevated and surface

corridors aggregating to 198.5 Km to meet the travel demands.

11.4.7 MRTS Phase-I The Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS) is an ambitious project that aims at providing a non- polluting and efficient rail-based transport system, properly integrated with the road transport system. The first phase of the Metro with a total length of 65.1 km. has been completed at an estimated cost of Rs. 10571 crore, and put to operations in March 2006. The details of the corridors is shown in Table 11.15: Table 11.15: Details of Metro Corridors – Phase I (Completed) and Phase II (on-going)

MRTS Phase-II On completion of Phase-I, Phase-II work has been started which includes corridors with a total length of 53.51 km and is expected to be completed by 2010. The estimated cost of completion, at current prices, is Rs. 8500 crore. The details of the corridors are presented in the table above. Metro rail is a high capacity mode and will serve the main traffic corridors in Delhi. There are a large number of other corridors that require medium capacity modes as feeders to Metro or otherwise. The metro is being funded through a loan from the Japan Bank for International Cooperation.

11.4.8 Proposed Integrated Multi Modal Transport System For Delhi

To be effective, public transport has to be integrated, multi modal, and environmentally, socially and financially sustainable. The Metro forms part of a larger Integrated Multi Modal Transport System proposed for the city, including also the following transport systems:

IRBT 2 44 Km

The 6 Metro corridors and the 2 IRBT corridors from a part of the existing DMRC and the NCCRPB plans respectively. The 6 Metro corridors remain unchanged except in the case of two corridors that are proposed to be extended. The proposed network includes 14 corridors that are in the nature of collector routes to serve areas at some distance from the planned major public transport routes. Another 16 corridors are radial that normally would be direct origin to destination routes and hence will meet the objective of minimum interchanges. There are 13 circular routes that will interchange with the radial routes. The overall network of radials and circular corridors has formed a grid and hence most commuters should not need more than or two interchanges to reach their destination. There will be 42 major and 77 minor interchange locations on the proposed network. Common ticketing and passenger information display are proposed to be developed.

With the modal split of 80% public transport is expected to carry 24 million trips by 2021. Metro rail and IRBT, if implemented as planned, are estimated to carry about 15 million trips per day; and the balance 9 million trips are to be catered to by other public transport systems.

11.4.9 Intermediate Public Transport System

Intermediate public transit in Delhi mainly comprise of Mini buses, RTV and Phat phat sewa, while the Personalised public transport services includes cycle rickshaws, three wheeler and taxis. These paratransit modes play a major role in catering to the intra urban travel demand of the city. Though their modal share of trips is only 3.1%, it will remain an integral part of the urban transport system. The cycle rickshaws, though a menace on some of the arterial roads of the city, provide a vital low cost pollution free service, which is most appropriate for certain localities.

11.4.10 Interstate Bus Terminals Delhi attracts significant movement of passengers primarily from DMA towns and NCR towns besides some other towns of neighboring states. Interstate bus operations were started from Kashmiri Gate ISBT in 1975. High growth of interstate bus operations led to the development of two new ISBT’s at Sarai Kale Kan and Anand Vihar in 1998 and a total of three ISBT’s are operating at present. These three ISBT’s cater to an average 3.70 lakh passengers and 5235 bus trips per day. Two more directional ISBT’s at Dwarka and Narela are proposed, while the ISBT at Sarai Kale Khan is proposed to be upgraded to higher standards. Apart from above terminals interstate buses operate from Bhajanpura, R.K.Puram, NDRS, Karampura, Safdarjung, Shivaji Stadium, Nehru Place, Narela, Karol Bagh and ITO, besides several roadside bus stops. Bus operation

and termination at points other than terminals affects the viability of bus terminals and also creates congestion on the roads.

11.4.11 Inland Water Transport The Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) conducted studies for navigational potential of river Yamuna for passenger and cargo service, development of water sports, recreational activities and for the improvement of the environment in Yamuna. No action in this regard could be taken as water level goes down to almost nil in summers making it difficult for the introduction of this kind of facility.

11.5 EMERGING ISSUES

i. High growth rate of vehicles and heavy vehicular volumes on road causing congestion, delay, safety, pollution.

ii. Ineffective utilization of road space- on street parking, encroachments,

lack of pedestrian facilities. iii. Improper road design – No consideration for disabled and pedestrians on

road.

iv. Inadequate and inefficient public transport system – need to address transport system for masses according to their affordability.

v. Lack of integration of land use & transport system. vi. No provision for environment friendly modes like cycles and cycle

rickshaws in road design. vii. Inadequate parking at major commercial areas and work centers and

lack of proper parking policy. viii. Intermixing of local and regional passenger and goods traffic.

ix. Lack of coordination in implementing agencies at city as well as regional

context.

x. Lack of user system interface and transport information. xi. Lack of adequate enforcement and implementation of planned schemes.

CHAPTER – 12 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

12.1 INTRODUCTION

Appropriate solid waste management of a city is crucial for public health and aesthetic surroundings. It is essential for a clean look. Therefore, the removal of any scattered and littered waste is as important as effective street sweeping and drain cleaning. This also brings to focus the necessity of synergy in the design, construction and maintenance of roads, surface (storm water) drains and storage, collection and transport of solid waste.

Due to its size and multiple activities, different types of solid waste are generated in Delhi:

• Municipal solid waste (from the domestic and commercial sectors and

common areas such as, parks, gardens, street sweepings and drain silt) • Construction and demolition debris (C&D waste) • Bio-medical waste (waste generated by health-care and veterinary

establishments) • Slaughterhouse waste (organized as well, as un-organized activities) • e-Waste • 'Special' waste (small quantities of toxic and hazardous waste generated by

the household and trade sectors) • Industrial waste generated within the city area

The presence of these different types of waste streams complicates the solid waste management scenario leading to deficiencies in planning and management. This is further aggravated by the unplanned settlements – slums and squatter settlements. Apart from the fundamental issue of service provision and problems of accessibility, some of these areas undertake unauthorized recycling of plastics; batteries etc. which may have grave environmental implications.

12.2 LEGAL AND INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK 12.2.1 Legal Framework

The Delhi Municipal Corporation Act 1957 has section 42 C, 355-5.8; stating the functions and role of MCD and citizens in disposal of the waste. The violation of

Page 253: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 12 Solid Waste Management

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

12-2

the sections 353, 354, 355(2), 356 and 357 are subject to fines ranging from Rs. 25 – 100 Section 357 (1) “Keeping rubbish and filth for more than 24 hours”, carries an additional daily fine of Rs. 10. The brief obligation of MCD is to provide receptacles, depots and places for waste disposal; and not necessarily house to house collection. It is the obligation of occupiers to use these for disposal of their waste.

12.2.2 Institutional Framework

Municipal solid waste management being the responsibility of Local Bodies, the following municipal entities are responsible for their respective areas:

1. Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD): Thus the MCD area includes urban

areas, rural and urban villages, slum clusters and regularized unauthorized colonies. The services of CSE include collection, transportation and disposal of municipal solid waste; road sweeping; cleaning of surface drains, construction and maintenance of public conveniences.

Total sweeping staff available with MCD and NDMC is in ratio of 1:216 persons and 1:326 persons respectively. This is above (better than) the prescribed norms of 1:500 in Central Public Health and Environmental Engineer Organisation (CPHEEO) manual. Within the municipal area, some zones have been contracted out to private contractors for functions ranging from the primary collection to waste disposal. They have their own sweeping staff, waste collectors and vehicles to transport the waste from collection points to disposal sites. MCD has privatized collection of municipal solid waste in 6 zones through 3 private operators, in order to save costs and improve efficiency in service delivery. These operators have to put sets of two bins (blue and green coloured) for collection of non-biodegradable / recyclable and bio-degradable waste respectively. These bins are emptied into separate vehicles of similar colour daily. The operators are also expected to do segregation of bio-degradable and non-biodegradable solid waste before the waste is collected into separate vehicles.

NDMC has 900 community bins (masonry built) and 1000 metallic skips (open containers of about 1m3 capacities).

12.3.2 Waste Generation

In the absence of a streamlined and completely controlled system of solid waste management, the available data is based on per capita generation from some studies (e.g., done by NEERI, 19991, Delhi Master Plan 20212, State of Environment Report for Delhi, 20013), vehicle trips and fragmented data from landfill records. Table 12.1 gives some idea of the waste generation, arrived at from such sources:

A news paper report (Times of India, May 14, 2006, New Delhi) pegs the solid waste generation at 8000 TPD and garbage dumped at the three landfill sites at 7435 TPD. According to a study carried out by IL&FS Ecosmart in 2005, the total generation is around 7700 TPD. The website of NDMC (as accessed on 12.08. 2006) notes lifting of 200-210 TPD garbage from its area.

Keeping in view the somewhat varying figures, it is proposed that the present generation of municipal solid waste may be taken as 6500 TPD for MCD, 400 TPD for NDMC and 100 TPD for DCB (total for NCT 7000 TPD). The figure is corroborated by the figure of waste collection of 6500-7000 TPD presented in a paper by MCD4

12.3.3 Constituents of Waste The variation of biodegradable waste ranges from 61.54% for industrial areas to 90.48% for APMC. This indicates marked variation in the biodegradable component of MSW in accordance with the land use pattern. Industrial areas are considered to generate relatively less amount of biodegradable waste while APMC market is considered to generate maximum amount of biodegradable waste. However, majority of land use like, MIG, LIG, HIG, EWS, Local fruits / vegetable markets, institutional areas public / semi public areas and villages are generating waste with a biodegradable component ranging from 71% to 76.5%. This indicates that the Dhalaos catering to these areas are receiving waste from mixed land use areas existing in the vicinity. The variation in recyclable waste ranges from 1.85 from APMC to 8.24% from industrial areas. The extent of recycling is indicated by the values of individual constituents at the source and at the disposal site. It is evident from this table that the recovery of the recyclable constituent includes paper, plastic, glass crockery, clothes, metal, etc. Paper, plastic and rag contributed a major fraction while glass, metal contributed to a lesser extent. Recyclables from APMC market are expected to be minimum (Refer Table 12.2)

4 (National Workshop on Municipal Solid Waste Management: Sharing of Experiences and Lessons Learnt, New Delhi, July, 2005 and sponsored by HUDCO, USAEP and WSP).

12.3.4 Waste Collection and Storage

Several types of waste receptacles are used in the MCD area – (i) large masonry bins, locally called "Dhalao" (ii) metallic bins of covered and open types (iii) 4-wheeled plastics and FRP bins with large covers, which have been introduced in some areas during the last 2 years and (iv) sites in some localities, where waste has been dumped in the open. The estimated number of dhalaos, metallic bins and open sites is about 2500. Delhi is divided into 12 zones, and each zone comprises different receptacles at which the waste from different corners in zones gets collected. It is transported to landfill sites for final disposal. Zone-wise list of Dhalaos, dustbins and open sites is described in (Refer Table 12.3) Table 12.3: Zone-wise list of Dhalaos, Dustbins and Open Sites

Recycling and rag-picking

Recycling and rag-picking of municipal solid waste is widely prevalent in Delhi through the involvement of an extensive network of informal (rag-pickers and scrap-dealers) and formal (recycling facilities) stakeholders. A wide range of materials and items are involved, such as, paper / cardboard, plastics, metals, glass, rubber, leather, textiles and clothing etc. As per a study the number of rag-pickers in Delhi is in the range of 80,000 to 100,000 (Srishti). It is estimated that about 1200-1500 TPD is removed from the municipal collection and disposal chain by these activities. However, these activities, carried out in un-hygienic and unscientific manner, have unfavourable environmental, occupational health and community health implications.

12.3.7 Construction and Demolition Debris This category of waste comprises predominantly inert waste generated during construction and demolition activities. Major sources of C&D waste are:

Residential waste – normally for small amendments, additions to homes

Property developers – whether residential or commercial

Other sources (roads / pavements /drains / medians improvement,

demolition activities etc.) Table 12.4 along with the pie-chart presents the results of TIFAC estimates of C&D waste composition in India. In addition, current survey findings and assessment carried out in 2005 by IL&FS Ecosmart are also shown in the Table

Note: Metal, Timber, glass, plasterboard and plastic are almost entirely recycled.

From the survey findings of IL&FS Ecosmart, it may be inferred that the C&D waste in Delhi mainly contains soil/sand, gravels and brick masonry.

5 Constituents of C&D waste are, Soil, Concrete, Masonry (i.e, bricks), Stone, Metal, Timber, Glass, Plaster Board and Plastic, porcelain, and Bituminous materials (from road excavations)

Based on TIFAC study, quantum of waste generated during Construction is of the order of 35 kg / sq.m of construction activity, while during demolition waste generated is about 350 kg / sq.m of demolition. As per the log sheets kept at the landfills, the quantity of C&D waste was found to vary from a high of 2877 TPD in July to a low of 442-446 TPD during August and September during a period of 15 months proceeding May 2005. The average comes to 879 TPD. The higher quantum during July is due to removal of silt from drains. On the other hand, generation of 1600-2000 TPD is indicated as per the transport arrangements of MCD. However, the quantum reaching the landfill is the quantity collected by MCD and does not reflect the generation. It also needs mention that most of the C&D is consumed internally for land filling and bricks, metal and wood are recycled. It is not obligatory for MCD to collect and dispose C & D waste. As per the regulations, the responsibility of disposal of construction waste is with the generator and MCD levies a fee of Rs. 250 / Ton of Waste disposed at landfill. However, significant quantities of waste are disposed at unauthorized / designated public locations. From these points, Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) is forced to evacuate C&D to the landfills. Typically, demolition activity is undertaken by specialized demolition contractors who bring their own equipment and personnel and transport the residual waste. The property owners pay fee to the demolition contractors, which is decided based on the recoverable value of recycled materials – steel, wood, glass, pipes etc. by demolition contractors. The diagram below describes the existing collection and transportation practices for C&D in the city of Delhi.

It is very important that construction and demolition waste is kept separate from the other municipal solid waste so that the processing and disposal is more efficient and the inerts are at least partially utilized. MCD is considering a pilot project for the collection, transportation and disposal of 500TPD of C&D waste for few selected zones of the city. The rationale for the proposed project is to separate C&D stream from MSW and in this process

Transfer the responsibility of the costs of collection, transportation, and

disposal to the C&D waste generator, and Streamline the C&D waste collection and transportation to improve the

existing condition of the city Explore & develop a market for processed C&D waste.

12.4 CONSTRAINTS – TECHNICAL, FINANCIAL AND INSTITUTIONAL

The technical problems relate to municipal storage, collection and transportation. But the major problem is in the area of processing and disposal. Open 'dhalao' (masonry built dust bin) is still the major receptacle for municipal solid waste in Delhi. These lead to two-fold problems – exposure of the waste to the environment and multiple handling (from depositing of the garbage to its loading on to the waiting collection vehicle – whether manually or by a front-end loader and again un-loading at the landfill unless the transporting vehicle is tipping type). The private operators are using smaller bins with lids (plastics or FRP made) and dumper placer containers, where the above mentioned problems are under control. However some of the dumper containers are not covered, leading to environmental pollution. Open vehicles are being used for transporting the waste across busy roads in majority of the cases, which needs to be controlled in a planned way. Putting a dangling tarpaulin over the open truck of garbage is no solution. Processing and disposal of municipal garbage is the most crucial issue. The existing landfills (dump-sites) are almost full. They need to be closed immediately in a scientific manner to the extent possible and new sanitary landfill (SLF) sites need to be developed and commissioned at the earliest possible. The major constraints in this are:

1. Provision of adequate land for building new sanitary landfills 2. To make arrangement for disposal of the waste in the intervening period

before the new SLFs can receive waste

As of now, MCD is trying to set up 3 new facilities at (a) Jaitpur, (b) Narela-Bawana and (c) Bhatti-mines (Refer Table 12.5):

Table 12.5: Three Proposed Sites for Solid Waste Management

24.6 The work has been awarded. The deep pit was filled with water. De-watering is being done since last 2 years but is not complete yet. The steep sides would require expertise of high level for planning and execution of the job.

2 Narela Bawana (flat land)

3 Bhatti Mines (deep pits – 4 nos., about 20 meter deep)

68.0 EIA completed. Land yet to be handed over to MCD.

Total

152.6

From the above, it would appear that there is no possibility of construction and commissioning of any of these facilities in the next one year. Therefore the biggest challenge would be to accommodate the garbage in the existing sites in a scientific manner and at the same time remedy the environmental problems of the existing dump-sites.

12.5 APPROPRIATE PROCESSING AND DISPOSAL

The key issues in Delhi with respect to solid waste management are:

• Efficient service delivery (collection and removal of garbage, construction and demolition debris and other types of waste, street sweeping etc. leading to clean surroundings and feeling of well being amongst the citizens)

• Appropriate disposal of waste in conformity with the applicable rules and

most importantly,

• Strategy for reducing land requirement

In the above listing, the most important element is reduction in land requirement for disposal. In the absence of adequate land, the three landfill sites are being over-used. As per the present situation, Delhi is actually in a very serious situation with respect to land required for processing and disposal of solid waste.

CHAPTER - 13 INSTITUTIONAL ASSESSMENT

13.1 INTRODUCTION

The current political set up in Delhi is the result of the 69th Constitutional' Amendment, passed by the Parliament in 1991, followed by the GNCTD Act, 1991. The provisions of this act provide for the setting up of the Assembly and the Council of Ministers for the NCT. The act also contains provisions, which distinguish the NCT from other Union Territories under the Constitution. This chapter presents the existing institutional framework in Delhi responsible for provision of urban infrastructure. It presents institutional issues and the institutional development strategy.

13.2 INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENT-NCTD The institutional framework for urban management in Delhi has a multiplicity of agencies, both central and state. They also look after various functions relating to urban infrastructure and its management. The institutions/agencies involved for performing city level functions in city are categorized as (A) Central Government Agencies; (B) State Government Agencies.

PART A: CENTRAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES 13.3 MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF DELHI 13.3.1. Constitutional Framework

The MCD has been set up under the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act, 1957, covering the entire area of NCT, except the areas controlled by the NDMC and Delhi Cantonment Board. The Act has been revised in 1993 to bring its various provisions into conformity with the 74th Constitutional Amendment.

Organisation Structure The governance structure of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) is divided into two wings viz. elected wing and administrative wing. Delhi has Mayor-in-Council system. Mayor in Council comprises 114 elected members. Mayor is Chairperson of the Council. Also, there are 13 special and 13 Ad-hoc committees on various subjects. The special committees are namely Assurance Committee, Works Committee, MRPH Committee, Environment Management Committee, Garden Committee, Law & General Purpose Committee, Special (Improvement & Development) Committees, Special Committees, Sports promotions & allied matter committee, High powered property tax committee, Municipal Accounts Committee, Code of Conduct for councilors committee. The ad-hoc committees are namely Remunerative Projects Committee, Licensing & Tehbazari Committee, Community Services Committee, Welfare of Scheduled Castes & Implementation of SC Candidates Quota committee, Anti-Malaria Measures Committee, Anti-Flood Measures Committee, Naming & Renaming Committee, Grants-in-Aid Committee, National Festivals, Fares Committee, Mahila Kalyan & Bal Vikas Committee, Grievances Redressal Committee, Education Committee and Rural Area Committee. The Municipal Commissioner oversees the functioning of administrative wing. He is assisted by the Deputy Commissioners and departmental heads. Departments include health, taxation, engineering, complaints, licensing, community and Horticulture. For administrative purpose corporation area is divided into 12 zones comprising 134 wards. Commissioner Zone heads the zonal office. After the zonal offices there are 134 ward offices at Lower level.

13.3.2. Functions

The functions of MCD are listed in Delhi Municipal Corporation Act 1957. It provides for mandatory functions and provides for discretionary functions of MCD. The major function of MCD are: city cleanliness, solid waste management, maintenance of gardens/dividers/circles, street light, bio-medical waste, slaughter house, encroachment removal, stray cattle management, community toilets, community halls, parking lots, development works, advertisement, property tax, and licensing. Billing and Collection: Billing of taxes and other charges are updated frequently. Collection system of revenues is inefficient; resulting in increases of arrears, and is increasing year by year.

13-3

Project Financing and Implementation: MCD partly dependent on its own funds and partly on the funds received as grants. Most of the capital works done are through grants and loans from Central and State Government Asset Management: MCD maintains it assets records. Budgets and Audit: MCD at present maintains it accounts in registers as well as computer based double entry accounting system. For every financial year balance sheet for accounts is prepared. Financial statements are prepared by chartered accountant. There is provision for periodical review of municipal finances by auditor general. Use of Technology: The MCD has partially implemented e-governance programme. Under this programme (over the project period) integrated computerized system can be developed and implemented for efficient service delivery. The project would develop and commission four modules for each of municipal function. The project can offer services like deposit of electric, telephone, water bills, Birth – Death certificate, payment of house tax, etc, through its ward wise kiosks installed through out the Delhi. MCD has started computer based double entry accounting system since 2002-03. MCD has established a Help-line phone number for resolution of Public Grievances regarding sanitation, sewer, streetlights etc. The Other functions now being performed by it like generation, transmission and distribution of electricity; supply and distraction of water and disposal of sewage; fire services and setting up and running of new hospitals are sought to be transferred to other agencies.

13.3.3. Issues

The institutional, administrative, legal and financial issues of the MCD are presented below: • Continued control of the Central Government over its administration and

affairs, which needs to be transferred to the GNCTD; • Decentralization of the present monolithic structure by setting up more

Corporations after their viability has been established. It is understood that a policy decision has already been taken to set up a separate Corporation for the East Delhi;

• An O&M Study of the present structure and remaining functions of the

Corporation, to make it efficient and manageable and to farm out some more functions relating to education and medical, to other agencies of the GNCTD, so that the MCD concentrates on its primary role as a municipal body;

• Ensure effective public- private partnership in waste management; • Increase its resource base by levying service charges for various services like

waste management, street lights, and entertainment facilities, community services like parks, play grounds, libraries and reading rooms.

13.4 DELHI DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY 13.4.1. Constitutional Framework

The DDA, a body corporate, has been set up under the Delhi Development Act, 1957. Earlier, the United Provinces Town Improvement Act was extended to Delhi, followed by the setting up of the Delhi Improvement Trust in 1937.

Organizational Structure

The controlling jurisdiction of the DDA is with the Ministry of Urban Development, with the LG as its Chairman and a nominated Governing Board. Many of the features of the present remit of DDA are based on planning and development ideas in the original Act.

13.4.2. Functions

The functions and powers of the Delhi Development authority as per DDA Act, 1957 are listed below: • Pioneering Urban Development: To formulate a Master Plan for covering

the present and future growth of Delhi and to promote and secure the development of Delhi according to the plan covering all the possible activities.

• Creating Metropolis: Preparing schemes and advising the concerned

authorities departments and agencies in formulating and undertaking schemes for development agriculture, horticulture, floriculture, forestry, transport, communication, schooling, cultural activities, sports, Medicare, tourism entertainment and similar other activities; to acquire, hold, manage and dispose of land and other property; to carry out building, engineering, mining and other operations; Formulation and sanction of the projects and schemes for the development of the Delhi;

• Institutional and Industrial Development: Institutional & Industrial

development as part of city building, which makes Delhi a land of opportunities. DDA has so far allotted land to various institutions for social, educational, cultural and religious purposes. Some of the landmarks institutional are at Siri Fort, Katwaria Sarai, Qutab Institutional area, etc.

• To acquire, hold, manage and dispose of property, movable or immovable,

as it may deem necessary; • To enter into contracts, agreements or arrangements with any person or

organization as the Authority may deem necessary for performing its functions;

• Power to acquire land for public purpose under the provisions of land

acquisition act 1984.

13-5

13.4.3. Institutional Issues

The institutional issues are as follows: • Since NCTD has a responsible popular government it should be enabled to

provide housing and other amenities relating to land, to fulfill the genuine ambitions of the people of Delhi; there is a need for GNCTD to have some say to in the working of DDA.

• DDA can consider how much it should involve itself in the function of

housing construction. In fact, there is a thinking at official level nowadays that public agency should take up construction of houses only for the low income groups;

• DDA should concentrate on its primary function of preparing the Master Plan

as a Perspective Plan from which the Zonal Development Plans could be prepared through the local governments by providing them with expertise or at least in collaboration with them;

13.5 CENTRAL POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD (CPCB) AND DELHI POLLUTION

CONTROL COMMITTEE (DPCC) 13.5.1. Constitutional Framework

The CPCB has been set up under the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 and also has all the functions under the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981. Delhi, being a Union Territory, the law does not provide for any separate Board and the CPCB has all the powers of a Board for the state. The DPCC has been set up by the CPCB on 15.03.1991, delegating all its powers under the two acts to the Committee.

Organizational Structure The Delhi Pollution Control Committee is headed by the Secretary, Environment, and GNCTD. The Director, Environment in the DoE is the Member- Secretary of the Committee. A nominee of the Central Pollution Control Board and Secretary, Local self Government, are the other two members. The DPCC has three zonal engineers of the rank of Superintending Engineers, assisted by Executive Engineers, Assistant Engineers and Junior Engineers, 27 in all.

13.5.2. Functions

CPCB looks at the compliance at the national level, monitoring of water quality of the Yamuna and discharging drains at various locations. The DPCC, in effect is the primary agency in the NCT, to carry out the regulatory work relating to prevention and control of water and air pollution.

13.5.3. Institutional Issues

A large number of posts, 170 out of a total of 256, sanctioned for the Committee, are reported to be lying vacant. The Committee has no field agency worth its name and hardly any captive monitoring facilities. Its financial resources are totally inadequate to the task. The Committee would need

Chapter – 13 Institutional Assessment

13-6

strengthening in its human resources and equipment for monitoring. Its staff would also need to be trained for maintenance and operation of the equipment. The availability of facilities with the CPCB and the existence of the EPCA, can not be a substitute the need for an effective and well-equipped set up with the DPCC.

13.6 ENVIRONMENT POLLUTION (PREVENTION AND CONTROL) AUTHORITY (EPCA)

FOR THE NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION 13.6.1. Constitutional Framework

The Ministry of Environment and Forests had set up the EPCA, on 29th January, 1998 for two years. Its term has since been extended by another two years.

Organizational Structure

The EPCA consisting of five part time members, and with no permanent secretariat of its own, has been set up in view of the gigantic and complex nature of environmental problems of Delhi. It has been specifically entrusted with the task of monitoring the progress of the action plan as contained in the White Paper on Pollution in Delhi, issued by the Central Government in December, 1997. The Supreme Court also has entrusted specific tasks to the EPCA from time to time.

13.6.2. Functions

The EPCA has also been entrusted with the following functions: • standards for the quality of the environment in its various aspects; • standards for emission or discharge of environmental pollutants from

various sources; • restriction of areas in which any industries, operations or processes or class

of industries or processes shall not be carried out or shall be carried out subject to certain safeguards;

• procedures and safeguards for the prevention of accidents which may cause

environmental pollution and remedial measures for such accidents; • Procedures and safeguards for the handling of hazardous substances.; • All necessary steps for control of vehicular population; • Power to issue directions for ensuring maintenance of the specified ambient

noise standards. 13.6.3. Institutional Issues

• Since the functions entrusted to the EPCA are long term and continuous in nature, it must have a permanent set up and some full time members with specialised experience of dealing with environmental issues in Delhi;

Page 272: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 13 Institutional Assessment

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

13-7

• The EPCA should have at its disposal, its own resources, to order specific studies and obtain help of experts;

• There seems to be a problem in the NCT in the maintenance of the

monitoring equipment installed at various places and more such equipment is needed. The EPCA may be the right agency to take up this function.

• There is no doubt that with its limited resources notwithstanding, the EPCA

has done considerable amount of good work in improving the air and water quality in the NCT.

13.7 DELHI URBAN ART COMMISSION (DUAC) 13.7.1. Constitutional Framework

The DUAC has been set up in 1974 by the DUAC Act 1973, to advise the Central Government and provide advice and guidance to the local bodies, for maintaining the aesthetic quality of urban and environmental design in Delhi.

Function of the DUAC is essentially to advise Central Government in the matters of preserving, developing and maintaining the aesthetic quality of urban and environment design in Delhi and advice and guide the local bodies for the same.

13.7.3. Institutional Issues

In the context of this recommendation it would be desirable that the entire major projects which need such an examination of the design from the point of view urban arts, especially in the context of heritage and sensitive sites and developments in their vicinity are referred to the Commission.

13.8 NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION PLANNING BOARD (NCRPB) 13.8.1. Constitutional Framework

13.8.3. Institutional Issues

• The GNCTD and its various agencies should realise that the NCRPB has been

set up to help Delhi. They should make full use of the Board in solving various problems of Delhi.

• The Planning Commission and' the Central Ministries should make) vigorous

efforts to develop the infrastructure in the NCR, outside Delhi, which in the long run, would produce better results for protection of environment.

• The GNCTD and the DDA should implement the policies enunciated in the

Statutory Regional Plan, accepted by all the participating states, relating to industries, trade and commerce and generation of employment. They should, in any case, not take or permit others to take steps, which are contrary to those policies.

• The role of the NCRPB in laying down the various policies for Delhi should be

enhanced and the Board should be associated in major investment decisions in Delhi.

• The NCRPB Act should be amended to permit the Board to take up

implementation of projects of inter state nature with the consent of the concerned states. This would help in better and timely execution of such projects.

• There is a good case for creating disincentives for industrial and other

establishments proposing to settle down in Delhi. On the contrary, the present policies in the NCT are generating incentives for them.

• The NCRPB should prepare Functional Plans under Section 16 of their Act,

providing for setting up of joint projects for power, industrial development, housing, water supply, sewerage sanitation etc.

13.9 DELHI METRO RAIL CORPORATION 13.9.1. Constitutional framework

The need for a mass rapid transit system, based on rail, has been felt in Delhi for a very long time. However, it is only in May 1995 that a company named Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd, under the Companies Act, could be set up. This is a joint effort between the Government of India and Government of Delhi, in equal participation.

13.9.2. Functions

Work on first phase of the project, comprising the construction of 55.3 kms of railway line, has begun from December 1997. The first stage of this phase between Shahdara to Tis Hazari is scheduled for commissioning in March, 2002. The entire first phase is due for completion in March, 2005.

13.10 NEW DELHI MUNICIPAL COUNCIL (NDMC) 13.10.1. Constitutional framework

An exclusive committee, known as Imperial Delhi Committee was constituted for the first time on March 25th 1913, for the management and construction of the proposed capital. In 1916, it was notified as Raisina Municipal Committee under the Punjab Municipal Act, 1911. In 1927, it was re-designated as NDMC. In 1932, it was upgraded as a first grade municipality and entrusted with the responsibility of providing civic services, along with construction of buildings. The situation has changed with the enactment of the NDMC Act, 1994 by the Parliament, which now governs the affairs of the NDMC.

Organisation Structure

The NDMC Act is structured more or less on the lines of the MCD Act, except for some distinguishing features as indicated below: • The Central Government has retained most of the controlling powers over

the NDMC, except that the GNCTD can also prescribe discretionary functions for the committee through general or specific orders. The GNCTD can also get the accounts of the committee audited.

• The Chairman is appointed by the Central Government, in consultation with

the Chief Minister of the NCT. • The remaining 11 members are also appointed by the Central Government,

though 2 of them again are to be appointed in consultation with the C.M. • Separate provisions have been made for discharging functions relating to

water supply, drainage, sewerage and transport in its area of jurisdiction. • The provisions of the NDMC Act 1994 have attempted to provide some say to

the locally elected Members of the Parliament and Legislative Assembly and the right of consultation to the C.M. of the GNCTD in the appointment of two members and the Chairman. This position is likely to continue till the Central Government wishes to retain full control of the area.

13.10.2. Functions and Powers

In addition to providing basic civic amenities to its residents, the New Delhi Municipal Council also ensures various social, cultural, educational and medical facilities, especially to the government/ municipal employees and other weaker sections of society. It is perhaps the only municipality in the country that supplies electricity and water and its discretionary functions encompass promotion of sports, art, music and culture, maintenance of libraries, and care for the old, mentally and hearing impaired. It takes care of working women, housing problems and social facilities like barat ghars and community centers. It always aims to achieve it by eliciting peoples' cooperation and public participation.

13-11

13.10.3. Institutional Issues

It appears that the constitution of the NDMC is not in conformity with the provisions of Articles 2430 and 243R of the, Constitution relating to constitution of municipalities and certain other provisions introduced in the 74th Constitutional Amendment. This really puts a question mark on the legality of the NDMC itself.

PART B: STATE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES 13.11 GNCTD SET-UP

The GNCTD is headed by the Lieutenant Governor, who is also the Administrator of the Union Territory of Delhi. The Chief Minister is the head of the Government, and discharges the duties and responsibility, with the assistance of Council of Ministers. There are various departments, each having a minister and the secretary The following Secretaries look after functions relating to urban infrastructure.

(i) Secretary, Urban Development, dealing with MCD, Delhi Jal Board, Slums,

Heritage and other issues relating to municipal management and urban development;

(ii) Secretary, Land and Building, dealing with housing, acquisition of land,

Public Works Department and related activities; (iii) Secretary, Environment, dealing with Delhi Pollution Control Committee as

its Chair Person and other issues relating to Environment; (iv) Secretary, Transport in charge of Delhi Transport Corporation and other

issues relating to transport ; (v) Secretary, Finance and Planning, dealing with Infrastructure Development

and related issues of Public Private Partnership in the field of urban infrastructure;

13.12 DELHI JAL BOARD (DJB) 13.12.1. Constitutional setup

The DJB has been set up by the Delhi Jal Board Act, 1998 passed by the parliament, to provide for the establishment of a Board to discharge the functions of water supply, sewerage disposal and drainage within the NCT and for matters connected therewith.

Organizational Structure The Chief Minister of Delhi is the chairperson of the Board, which has 17 members. The Chief Executive of the Board has to be appointed by the GNCTD. The GNCTD also has been authorized to exercise other control, including issue of directions, to the Board.

Page 277: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 13 Institutional Assessment

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

13-12

It is too early to offer comments on the functioning of the DJB, which has yet to be fully constituted (three posts of full time members are vacant) and gain full control of the operations.

13.12.2. Functions

As of now Delhi Jal Board (DJB) is responsible for procurement of raw water, treatment and supply to the three constituents and responsible for distribution of water supply and related works in MCD area. DJB is also responsible to collect, transmit, treatment and disposal of waste water from the three constituents and for operation & maintenance of sewer system within the MCD area.

13.13 DELHI TRANSPORT CORPORATION

On the establishment of the MCD in 1957, the transport services in Delhi were transferred to the Corporation. Subsequently, a new statutory corporation, known as Delhi Transport Corporation was set up under the Road Transport Corporation Act, 1950. However, its control remained with the Central Government. With the reorganization of the political set up in Delhi, the control and the assets have been transferred to the GNCTD. However, the outstanding loans and the interest have been written off.

13.13.1. Summary of Issues

The issues related to urban institutional set up are discussed in Table below.

Issues Status Implementation of 74th CAA

Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi has not been able to implement the 74th Amendment to the Constitution.

It has been pushing hard to approve the Delhi Municipal Corporation (Amendment) Bill, 2005 whose decision is still awaited with the Union Home Ministry.

Major administrative decisions for making and implementing the Master Plan are still taken by the Central Government Agency, that is, DDA.

MCD has been trying hard to introduce the new system of Local Area Plans (LAP), through amendments to Unified Building Byelaws of Delhi. As things stand today, LAP violate the Delhi Development Act 1957 as well as Delhi Municipal Corporation Act.

Since legislation is not enacted by the GNCTD, necessary institutional mechanisms such as the Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) and DMPC are not in place.

Overlapping of jurisdiction

Overruling of the Delhi High Court decisions by the NCT of Delhi and Ministry of Urban Development. For instance, MoUD issued a notification, a procedure not allowed under the Delhi Development Act 1957, to allow mixed land uses in the residential areas located along the roads with a certain RoW.

There is a lack of clarity over the departmental responsibilities for land use planning, development, maintenance and enforcement. This has resulted in ineffective and uncoordinated decision making and actions. For instance, the boundaries of the revenue districts and the MCD zones overlap with each other.

Page 278: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 13 Institutional Assessment

13-13

Overlapping of functions

• Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has failed to identify and coordinate with the State Government.

Other Sectors Water Supply • Revenue 2 times the expenditure cost, indicating high

operation and maintenance cost and highly subsidized water supply.

• Revenue losses due to less coverage / jurisdiction area (45%). • High rate of water loss (40%). • No centralized database and information management system

in place. Heritage and Conservation • Piecemeal, uncoordinated approach to the heritage and

conservation in Delhi. • Limited positive and meaningful co-operation between the

agencies involved. • No overall planning and direction in the sector. • Monuments are in dilapidated stage and being altered heavily

(losing their historical value) • Number of heritage buildings occupied by State and Central

Government Departments. • No Incentives and technical support given to owners of

heritage building for they’re up keep and maintenance. • Difficult to apply laws and regulations and at the same time

lack of rules/ guidelines for restoration of civil heritage, construction on and demolition of heritage structure.

• Lack of political commitment and public awareness on heritage value.

• Lack of Public facilities in and around the monuments and area.

• Poor Solid Waste Management in old city. • Public Private Partnership for development of tourism and

heritage conservation.

CHAPTER - 14 REVIEW OF URBAN FINANCE

14.1 TOWARDS A CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN – FINANCIAL ASPECTS

The financial aspects of the City Development Plan (CDP) of Delhi is anchored onto the primary goal of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM), of creating economically productive, efficient, equitable and responsive cities. This chapter details the municipal finances of the Municipal Corporation and other entities involved in the provision of services and outline the receipts and expenditure over the last five years, which would form the base for the preparation of Financial & Operating Plan (FOP).

14.2 REVIEW OF THE EXISTING FISCAL AND FINANCIAL SITUATION

The purpose of this section is to review and analyze the existing financial situation in terms of trends in revenues and expenditures by authorities concerned with the development of the city. The entities, which have been studied, are:

• Municipal Corporation of Delhi (Annex. 14-1) • New Delhi Municipal Council (Annex. 14-2) • Delhi Jal Board (Annex. 14-3)

14.3 OVERVIEW OF MCD FINANCES

MCD income and expenditure are maintained on cash basis. However MCD has shifted to accrual accounting system from FY 2002-03, but it is maintaining the accounts on cash system also as the accrual system has not been fully adopted due to lack of correct information on all assets and liabilities particularly property tax arrears. Municipal finances of Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) have been reviewed for the last five years, commencing from the financial year (FY) 2000-01. Revenue income of MCD has grown to a level of Rs. 2258.47 crores in the FY 2004-05 from Rs. 1372.85 crores in FY 2000-01; the revenue income had registered an average annual growth rate of 11.47 percent whereas the revenue expenditure increased at an average annual rate of 7.68 percent, thus indicating a surplus position during this period. Capital income of MCD comprises of loans and grants, in the form of loan for infrastructure development and grants for improvement of basic services. A major share of capital income is in the form of grants. As observed in Table 14.1, the capital expenditure has been relatively consistent during the review period. During FY 2004-05, capital expenditure had increased to Rs. 727.11 crore from Rs. 596.29 crore in the FY 2000-01. The highest percentage of expenditure was on providing infrastructure for colonies.

Further review of the revenue and capital accounts indicates that surplus has increased over period of 2000-01 to 2004-05. The sharp rise in the surplus of the revenue account in 2004-05 has been attributed to an abnormal rise in the Ways and Means advance.

Property Tax

Income from property tax is the single largest and most elastic source of revenue, contributing about 40-45 percent to the total revenue. Income through Property Tax up till 31-3-2004 was based on the Annual Rental Value of the property. From 1-4-2004 a new system for assessing properties has been introduced called the Unit Area Method of property tax.

Unit Area Assessment The Unit Area Method of Assessment is based on fixing a unit area value per square meter of covered space for calculation of property tax. The tax for a particular property is based on the annual value of the property arrived at, by multiplying unit area value assigned to the colonies/localities with the covered area of the property and the multiplicative factors for occupancy, age, structure and use. The Unit Area Values category wise is given in the table below:

Category A B C D E F G H Value: (in Rs. Per square meter) 630 500 400 320 270 230 200 100

The above values are valid up till Assessment Year 2006 -2007 The Unit Area Value for vacant land in excess of 75 % of the total plot area would be computed at a factor of 0.3 of the base unit value of the colony. The Multiplicative factors are given below:

Self-Assessment and Calculation of Tax Under Unit Area Method: In the old system of property taxation the onus for raising demand rested with the corporation, whereas in the current system of property taxation, concept of self-assessment has been introduced for the first time whereby, the onus for filing returns and paying taxes is that of the owner/occupier. The method of calculating Self-assessment tax is as follows:

Page 285: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 14 Review of Urban Finance

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

14-6

Step 1: Measure the covered area of property; Step 2: Take the unit area value of the locality /category notified by the corporation; Step 3: Calculate the annual value by using the following formula:

14-10

Revenue Account Status The revenue account of MCD from the year 2002-03 has shown a healthy surplus. The operating ratio over the period of analysis has hovered around unity indicating that revenue income is being wholly utilized to meet revenue expenditure.

Revenue Income MCD has generated over 68 percent of its revenue through its own sources. Dependency on the grants is to the extent of 15 percent. Though Property tax is the largest own source revenue income, there is still a scope for improvement by expanding the base by way of covering un-assessed properties. The average collection on current demand is around 55 percent whereas average collection against recovery of arrears is just about 6% giving an overall collection performance of 19 percent. Revenue Expenditure It is observed that about 60-65% of the total revenue income is being spent on the salaries and other related costs which is well above the average when compared to other local bodies – the range being 30-40 percent of revenue income. Capital Account status The capital account has consistently given a surplus indicating that there is an underutilization of funds available for carrying out the development work.

The following issues emerge from the above analysis carried out on the finances of NDMC.

Revenue Account Status The revenue account of NDMC from the year 2002-03 has shown a healthy surplus. The operating ratio over the period of analysis has hovered around unity indicating that revenue income is being wholly utilized to meet expenditure. Revenue Income NDMC is generating about 96% of income through its own sources which clearly indicates that it is able to self sustain and the reliance on the grants is minimal. The surplus in the account implies that the funds are available to meet the deficiency in the Capital account as and when it arises Revenue Expenditure It is observed that about 30-35% of the total revenue income is being spent on the salaries and other related costs which is well below the average when compared to other local bodies.

14.5 OVERVIEW OF DJB FINANCES

This section briefly covers the financial status of the Delhi Jal Board (DJB). DJB is committed for augmentation of water supply in Delhi and has taken several steps in this direction. The main sources of revenue for DJB are water charges, gas charges, scavenging tax, and development charges. On carrying out the analysis from the limited data made available, it can be seen that DJB finances are not in good condition, since, in five years under review, there was a deficient balance on revenue account on year to year basis without considering previous year balances. On the other hand the capital account has consistently shown a surplus thereby implying that capital income is being utilized to fund revenue expenditure.

Revenue Income

Revenue Income is primarily categorized into two sources – internal sources and non-plan assistance. The variations in the level of income are on account of the high degree of fluctuation in the quantum of Non–Plan assistance. The income generated from internal sources has more or less stayed stable and has increased at annual average growth rate of 7.65 percent. Table 14.17: Source wise break-up of Revenue income

The revenue and capital balances indicate that DJB is not quite able to meet its recurrent expenditure out of its own sources. As explained above the capital receipts generate maximum revenues. The operating ratio has been more than unity indicating a trend of going beyond means. The authority has been servicing its debts by utilizing capital receipts thus implying that instead of asset creation the capital receipts are being diverted towards meeting recurring expenses.

CHAPTER - 15 COMMUNITY CONSULTATION

15.1 INTRODUCTION

The participation process for the CDP Delhi has been conducted at two levels, distinguished by the range of the stakeholders involved and their level of participation. The first level of the process was consultative in nature. The stakeholders were involved through interviews and focus group discussions for assessment of the situation in terms of levels of urban services, and identification of needs for infrastructure improvement etc. The second level of consultation was a participatory workshop with stakeholders being involved in collaborative decision making. Various stakeholder groups were identified during the consultation program.

PRIMARY STAKEHOLDERS: The beneficiaries of a development intervention or those directly affected (positively or negatively) by it. They include local populations (resource persons, community, students) in the project/program area, in particular, poor and marginalized groups who have traditionally been excluded from participating in development efforts such as JJ cluster, relocation/resettlement colonies and slum dwellers, and organizations such as Residential welfare organizations, traders’ organizations, hoteliers and other associations. SECONDARY STAKEHOLDERS: those who influence a development intervention or are indirectly affected by it. They include the borrowing government, line ministry and project staff, implementing agencies, local governments, civil society organizations, representatives of business and industry, and other development agencies. Councillors of MCD & NDMC, development agencies such as Delhi Development Authority (DDA) line departments such as DJB, PWD etc were amongst the stakeholders consulted. Resident Welfare Associations (RWA’s), as well as NGO’s working on issues at a city level, were consulted through individual interactions, as well as during the workshops.

15.2 CITY STAKEHOLDERS PROFILE

The Consultation process was formulated to target stakeholders at varied levels through primary consultations in the NCTD area, and workshops. Details of the agenda of the workshops, and stakeholders consulted have been given in Table 15.1 below, and in Annexures 15.1, 15.2 & 15.3

15.3 SECTORWISE VIEWPOINT OF COMMUNITY

The outcomes of the consultations are presented to enable an understanding of the current urban infrastructure situation of the city, the (adverse) impacts due to the present situation and various changes sought by the community. The tables regarding issues and suggestions emerging from the consultation have been prepared urban sector wise for clarity and ease.

Water supply

Zone wise inequitable distribution of water supply has forced consumers to depend on ground water by drilling tube wells, installing booster pumps to enhance water supply; increasing the storage capacity etc. The table below presents an area wise consumers viewpoint on service level and suggestions for water supply improvement.

15.3.1 Sewerage System

Only 35 per cent of the city is covered by a sewerage system. Unauthorized colonies, urban villages, JJ clusters and peripheral areas are devoid of a sewerage network, and therefore dependent on septic tanks for waste disposal. The sewerage network laid in around 400 unauthorized/regularized colonies are either not working or the pipe diameters are undersized to carry the sewage generated in those areas. Most of the sewage is disposed directly into drains and streams causing very unhygienic conditions and contaminating the water sources. Table 15-4 summarizes the primary consultation findings for sewerage.

15.3.2 Storm Water Drainage System

Storm water drainage in the city is mostly through nallahs and drains. The total length of storm water drainage is around 25,000km. About 50% of the existing city area is covered by open unlined drainage. The drains have become carriers of raw sewage and are generally choked with solid waste.

• Need to construct more drains to carry the huge volume of water during rainy season.

• Drainage should end in natural water bodies and artificial tanks for ground water recharge

15.3.3 Solid Waste Management

The MCD is responsible for SWM within the NCTD area. The daily waste generated in Delhi is about 7000 MTPD. Primary collection is carried out by the MCD through street sweeping and from storage bins. At present, only 60-65% of the waste generated is collected. No house-to house waste collection or source segregation of waste is followed. The present collection system covers the densely populated areas and the planned colonies and there are many unplanned colonies, rural areas and JJ clusters where collection of MSW is not done or collection is done twice a week only. The waste generated in these areas is either burnt or dumped on open streams or vacant spaces by the residents. Treatment of waste, currently, is minimal --- waste is land dumped at three sites, which are nearly full. In the absence of any separate system for collection of bio-medical wastes, it is mixed with MSW.

15.3.4 Transportation

The road network follows a ring and radial pattern with C.P. as focal point. Roads cover roughly 21% of the urban area in the NCTD. The expansion of the road network and growth of vehicular traffic in Delhi has resulted in the installation of traffic signals at short distances. There are more than 700 signalized intersections located all over Delhi to control traffic operations and ensure smooth flow of traffic. The signalized intersections have led to excessive time and fuel consumption for all vehicular trips. Table 15-7 summarizes the primary consultation findings for transportation.

15.4 PERCEPTION ON QUALITY OF PRESENT LEVEL OF SERVICE DELIVERY

One aspect that gets highlighted in all consultations is the dissatisfaction that people feel with the present quality of urban infrastructure and service delivery. In NCTD area as in all other cities, people have put forth the need for improvement of urban infrastructure services.

15.4.1 View on Water Supply

Primary stakeholders have expressed extreme resentment over the present service delivery. People informed that the frequency of water supply ranges from once in two days to once a week. To supplement the inadequate water supply people buy water from private water suppliers at a monthly rate of INR 250 per 1000 litre per households or through private tube wells. The community has expressed more faith in the private water suppliers than in the DJB. The community has put forth suggestions such as construction of reservoirs, construction of ring wells, community water tanks to resolve water supply woes. People have expressed their willingness to pay for improved and assured water supply.

15.4.2 View on Sewerage

At present only 35 per cent of NCTD area is covered by a sewerage system. The common method of sewage disposal is through septic tanks and soaks pits in the villages, urban fringes and other unserviced areas. People in all meetings

Page 337: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 15 Community Consultation

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

15-9

expressed their desire to have a public sewerage system, once the system was explained to them.

15.4.3 View on Drainage

It is evident from the maximum number of responses giving top priority to addressal of drainage issues, that drainage components in NCTD area needs the most intervention. People have linked the occurrence of water logging to drainage. Drainage issues thus need to be addressed holistically. People have complained about choked drains and underground seepage from drainage channels.

15.4.4 Slum and JJ clusters

Slum areas are characterized by inadequate services such as poor approach roads, improper drainage, and lack of water supply and sewerage facilities. Residents of planned areas have expressed the view that the poor need to be included and provided for in the development of the city. Residents from all the JJ clusters have asked specifically for provision of water supply, provision of individual toilets, improvement of drainage. Moreover people also emphasized security of tenure and in-situ redevelopment to avoid loss of livelihoods.

15.4.5 Views on Traffic and Transportation Sector

The transportation sector has been accorded fourth ranking along with SWM in the priority ranking of issues and has received the third most number of responses after the drainage & sewerage systems. The generic suggestions for improvement of Traffic and Transportation sector include: Removal of encroachment in commercial and residential areas, Repair of road network damaged due to laying of underground infrastructure Improving connectivity of the urban fringes with core city area and Provision of street lighting

15.4.6 Views on Solid Waste Management

SWM has been accorded overall fourth priority ranking by the community and the NGOs consulted. Presently waste collection services extend to all zones of the city with less emphasis on the peripheral area, unauthorized colonies and rural areas within the city. The collection service is restricted to the main arterial roads, government colonies and planned areas with city territory. Moreover, there is a dearth of dustbins in almost all the areas of the city.

In areas covered by network private waste collection system, bins (Green and Blue bins) are placed on the shoulder of the road. It has been observed that due to low efficiency of collection of waste, waste gets accumulated in the dustbins itself and spills over to the surroundings attracting stray cattle and creating traffic congestion.

15.4.7 Willingness to Pay for Services

People have expressed their willingness to pay for improved urban services like piped water with assured water supply, improved collection facility for SW and

Page 338: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 15 Community Consultation

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

15-10

community toilets. However, the willingness to pay varies across income groups and urban and rural areas.

15.5 STAKEHOLDERS WORKSHOPS

As part of the consultation program and in continuation to consultations being carried out across the city, stakeholder workshops were organized to arrive at a consensus on the key issues identified with regard to the various elements analyzed above, and to firm up the optional strategies to address the service delivery and financial issues identified. The workshops were organized over two days:

• the first one included representatives from government, business and trade organizations;

• the second one included institutional representatives, NGO’s and RWA’s in the city.

Both sessions were chaired by Ex-Chief Secretary Delhi, Shri S. Reghunathan. As part of the process, over 225 persons from various fields and sectors were contacted to attend the workshops.

The agenda of the workshops is presented in Annex 15-1 & 15-2. The list of participants is presented in Annex 15-3. The sector wise key findings are presented below.

development process. 20. Growth of small enterprises should be supported in Delhi --- MNC’s and Large

establishments can operate form the NCR 21. Investment leads to mobility in the city. There are good employment

opportunities in the city, especially in manufacturing and the small scale sector.

Transport Sector Planning Concerns 1. Transport Planning and road network development shall be undertaken in

integration with land use planning; not in hindsight, as is done currently 2. Model for city has to be looked into -there has been unprecedented growth of

vehicular traffic 3. Urban Transport policy to be implemented 4. Carry out comprehensive transport study 5. Design city around people not traffic - design of transport intersections keeping

in mind the pedestrian traffic; busy road network in congested areas should be pedestrianised and made one way

Upgradation and Interconnectivity 6. A sustainable transport system is

required, considering vehicular emissions, accidents on roads; and the composition of private vehicles

7. Inefficient Systems must be upgraded the working of the DTC needs to be looked into

8. Road augmentation and parking vs. Public Transport System

9. Interconnectivity of modes should be seamless

10. Consider the level of impact of the metro on the city development along the corridors; the levels of subsidy, elevated structures are poor designs for the city

11. Enhance public transport system 12. Ring railway system should form part of the integrated transport system,

especially in view of affordability. Coordinate with other modes. 13. Regulatory measures to discourage private vehicles on road 14. Examine proposal for Bus Rapid Transit System 15. Comprehensive parking plan for solving parking problems of Delhi 16. Parking away from market place with free RTI services; introduce point to point

services in public transport. 17. Development of transport system

for Disabled population 18. Encroachments on the road- 350

km of the metro city 19. Road safety system-manhole on

road, design approval by auditor 20. Development of cycle tracks for

cyclist safety; segregate light and heavy vehicles

21. Cycle traffic to be encouraged

Water Supply 1. Delhi has supply side management while the emphasis should be on the demand

side management. Demand Assessment has not been done properly. Improvement of the water supply system should lay emphasis on the following:

Appropriate pricing, to curtail wastage Management of the water lost during distribution Lack of capacity of the system

Water Distribution & Equitable Access 2. Hydraulic modeling (Management Information System) should be adopted for the

management of entire water distribution. DJB is still managing water as it was done 70 years ago. It needs management expertise.

3. Disparity in Water Distribution system should be looked into, even within each supply zone

4. No water supply network in urban villages, leading to ground water depletion 5. Equitable access to water is a question. Policies should focus on the access to

water for poor. Currently, they are not entitled to have individual connections. Coping costs are very high.

6. Delhi is a city with no infrastructure -- Water Supply is lacking in many areas, power supply is intermittent, there is rampant, unauthorized construction, and multiplicity of authorities, leading to poor management. There is no interface between the provider and the user.

Repairs, Management, Monitoring & Pricing 7. Repair and management of 10,000 kms of

underground water supply network is a challenge.

8. Monitoring of water supply through bulk metering etc

9. Legislative reforms and varied water pricing for the poor and rich

10. Delhi’s water supply is based on consumptive use we return 80% of water supplied to the river. If the city starts recycling, we will not be able to sustain this.

11. The neighboring states to Delhi, that is, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana are also reluctant to provide water due to:

Leakage and poor management of water The quality of water which is returned to River Yamuna

12. Delhi must insist on Renuka, Lakhwar Vyasi and Kishau dams coming up, in order

to meet requirements in the long term. 13. Provision of Water harvesting to be made for Shiv Temples

Page 342: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 15 Community Consultation

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

15-14

Waste Water Generation and Management 1. Efficiency of the sewerage network to be improved and laying of sewerage

system in the un-sewered areas. Large parts of unauthorized colonies are completely un-sewered.

2. Rehabilitation of the Silted Network must be undertaken to the extent possible --- large parts of the network are completely silted up.

3. Kitchen and Bath water are mixed with sewage 4. Bricklined Drains are carrying sewage 5. Sewage Treatment Plant to be constructed at the end of the drains discharging

water in river Yamuna 6. Only half of the existing STPs are working 7. Fixing of institutional responsibility 8. The DJB should not be made responsible for both water supply and sewerage ---

Constitute a separate body for sewage and storm water disposal and rain water harvesting. These are large systems, and should have an independent agency to run them.

Solid Waste Management Sites for Waste Disposal 1. NCR Planning Board had recommended 10,000 hectare land for disposal of solid

waste of Delhi. The State Governments of UP and Haryana have not agreed to allow Delhi to have waste disposal sites in their states.

2. Decision should be made that the facilities should be at the regional level or decentralized. State boundaries should not be an issue

3. Delhi has scarcity of land for disposal. At present all the three landfill sites at Bhalswa, Gazipur and Okhla are full.

4. The guidelines of the Ministry of Environment and Forests for solid waste management needs to be complied with, meaning compliance of 'Municipal Solid Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 2000'

5. About 500 hectares of land would be required if all the solid waste generated in Delhi is landfilled as per the abovementioned rule (SWM 2000)

Waste Minimisation, Processing and Recycling 6. Waste minimization be given top priority to save land 7. Restrict waste disposal on land 8. Promote waste processing and recycling 9. Implementation plan be made for above.

There are four composting plants in Delhi with a total designed capacity of 975 tons per day, out of which the plant owned by the MCD at Okhla is closed for the past couple of years. However, the three remaining plants are working under-capacity, to the tune of less than 50%, possibly due to quality and marketing problems. An incinerator plant was installed in the year 1986 at Timarpur with a designed capacity of

Page 343: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 15 Community Consultation

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

15-15

burning 300 tons per day of municipal garbage producing 3 MW electrical power. This plant could not work due to a mismatch with the quality of garbage (low calorific value and high moisture).

10. To start with, all the four existing compost plants can be augmented within a short time with technical, financial and marketing support to actually process upwards of 1000 tons of municipal garbage per day. Simultaneously plans for more processing facilities can be made to maximize processing and minimize land requirement for land filling.

Facilities for Hazardous Waste 11. Delhi also needs facilities specifically for bio-medical and hazardous waste. At

present the disposal facilities are designed for municipal waste. 12. Clear policy required for management of bio-medical waste, particularly with

respect to facilitating the sector. The 'Bio-medical Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 1998' puts the responsibility on the 'Generator' of waste, the 'Operator' of the treatment and disposal facility and the 'Prescribed Authority' for monitoring and implementation.

13. Site identification for disposal of Hazardous Waste through interstate networking 14. Public participation and public awareness is a must for solid waste management Heritage and Environment Integrated Approach to Cultural & Natural Heritage 1. Environment and Heritage need to be looked at integrally. Heritage is associated

with water systems, channels, open spaces etc. Establish contiguities of green spaces and heritage.

2. Delhi is a city contained between the ridge and the river. Development can either be around these, respecting them, or on top of these, destroying them. Natural Heritage, the river and ridge have to be preserved.

Listing & Documentation 3. Listing of natural and manmade

heritage. 4. There is no comprehensive listing of

heritage structure and the State Archeology Act is not in place. There is no legality in the MCD taking up heritage issues. Only the Master Plan has the legal mandate (and is the right platform to take it up)

5. Listing of heritage in Delhi is required. This should include natural, architectural, archaeological as well as cultural heritage.

6. The data for heritage is available in Delhi but in a scattered fashion. There is a need to collate all this information together.

7. MCD Town planning department shall be responsible for the listing of projects for conservation of Heritage areas.

8. Ownership and use of heritage structures has changed --- mosques in Mehrauli are being used for inappropriate uses.

15-16

Implementation & Monitoring of Heritage Management Plans 9. Conservation Management plan was prepared for DDA (1997 -98) but not

implemented. 10. Implementation can be done through Heritage Management Plans and

Conservation Plans 11. Heritage Plan should be implemented through master plan and zonal plan. 12. Monitoring of heritage buildings. 13. There should be a monitoring committee to oversee land in and around heritage

structures - GIS can be used for this. Conservation and Revitalisation 14. The city’s heritage goals should be defined first --- funding should be accepted to

achieve these goals, and not the funding agencies’ goals. 15. Some parts of Delhi, like Shahjahanabad, need to be revitalized. Decision needs

to be taken whether they need to be improved or reconstructed all over again, as has been done in the European countries.

16. Urban Renewal-Revival and revitalization of the city and the quality of life 17. Citywide renewal of heritage has to be decentralized. 18. Large scale redevelopment in unplanned areas to improve city environment 19. Developing park and open spaces in residential, commercial and institutional

areas. 20. The city of Delhi is not at all pedestrian friendly. Pavements are not continuous,

whereas roads are. No shade on streets. 21. Avenue plantation to improve the micro-climate along the road and reducing the

travel time 22. Today, certain areas get flooded as the road level is higher than the colonies

which gives rise to insanitary conditions. Pollution 23. Consider pollution from various sources-due to gensets in residential, commercial

and institutional premises; vehicular pollution; pollution due to the fly ash – 8000 MT/Day

24. Trans boundary Sub Particulate Matter (SPM Level) are problems for the city and resuspension of fly ash (AIIMS and CPCB)

25. Effect of pollution on human health due to Pb, Co, C6H6 and PHC respectively. 26. Burning of rags, solid waste in Khanpur and Vikaspuri (rag picker’s colonies) area

are health hazards for the city’s inhabitants. 27. Heavy metals in soil are a consequence of use of paints-60000 tonnes per year. Revival of Environmental Assets 28. Revival plan for water bodies not undertaken and around 800 water bodies are

already lost. 29. Drains are in danger of being lost. 30. Rain water harvesting should be first undertaken by government and then model

are replicated for private structures. Only 37 lakhs have been spent in 5 years on RWH.

31. Water Channels are near the mounds and heritage structures are near the water channels.

32. City’s natural heritage systems are to be integrated --- Continuity of green spaces and water channel.

Page 345: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 15 Community Consultation

15-17

33. Revival of environment assets -Nazafgarh Jeel – 7 km2; Jahangirpuri lake and Horse Shoe Lake, Bhalswa needs restoration.

34. Building up aquifers-depletion of water table. 35. Protection of Delhi Ridge as forest belt near Faridabad border. Storm Water Drainage 1. Remodelling of drains are required 2. Discharge of sewage into storm water drains must be stopped 3. Covering of drains and turning them into roads is not desirable (e.g., Najafgarh

drain and Barapulla drain) 4. Storm water drains are silted up to the extent of no desiltation. Therefore drains

are to be reconstructed Urban Slums and Housing 1. There is no slum policy (for JJ clusters and slums) in place 2. There is no act, or consistent policy for tenure security and relocation sites 3. In situ upgradation of slums does not take place

- rather, only relocation is done 4. It is always claimed that there is no land

available for Slum Relocation in Delhi. This does not seem to be true. In the first Master Plan, 43,000 Hac. of land was allocated for housing, but the DDA had utilized barely 25% of this.

5. Populations are shifted to relocation sites before infrastructure is provided why cannot infrastructure be provided beforehand?

6. The DDA does not provide land for relocation. So settlements should form Cooperative Society for Slum Relocation and rehabilitation

7. In-situ upgradation for Slum / JJ Clusters-Land owning agency has to forego the land cost. In-situ upgradation is the only answer. Land owning agencies should form a mission and give up their lands.

8. Slum department is collecting

money (advances) for slum development, but not using it for slum development

9. JJ Cluster and Slums are to be treated as integral part of the city. Different segments of the population have to co-exist. The planning process has not provided for them.

10. Precedence of legal security Mumbai Model the Act in

Maharashtra gives urban poor the right to housing; provides for in-situ rehabilitation.

11. Recognize Urban Poor’s right to housing 12. 40 sqm per family is the minimum size of plot to be provided for the slum

dwellers. 13. The cutoff date should be of a year back; instead of a decade back

Page 346: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 15 Community Consultation

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

15-18

14. Look into the affordability of EWS housing provided by DDA. One DU costs approx.

1 lakh. 15. Enough provision for EWS housing in the city should be made. 16. Work place relationship is lacking at relocation sites 17. The relocated population are to be provided with free bus passes for a period of

at least 5-10 years 18. Bank loans and support from financial institutions are to be provided to

inhabitants of slums and JJ clusters 19. Minimum norms of physical and social infrastructure are not available at

relocation sites and JJ clusters 20. Land is available for insitu upgradation of slums / JJ clusters --- if land is a

constraint at the existing site, the relocation site should not be more than 1km distant

21. Slum department has rehabilitated 8000 families with investment of 20 crore. 22. Problem of Ragpickers in Delhi 23. Service providers of the city are staying in JJ clusters 24. Slum rehabilitation are short term 25. The rent control act creates artificial scarcity of housing in the city 26. Affordable rental housing for poor --- there should be more of this 27. Creating Housing for the poor 28. Plots, with shared infrastructure (which can be upgraded at a later date) and one

room tenements should be made available for urban poor. Also, multistoried accommodation can be provided next to the work centers.

29. Fresh migrants are to be provided with subsidized housing with only cost of construction

30. Unplanned rehabilitation of the poor leads to theft in urban services 31. Unauthorized colonies lack basic infrastructure 32. Dislodging of the poor for utilization of lands 33. Lack of planning and implementation Institutional Assessment & Governance 1. The lack of effective governance is a critical issue in the city 2. Need for a well- defined authority to manage the city 3. Institutional reform, in order to ensure transparency and responsiveness, is

required. 4. Multiplicity of Authorities 5. Institute a competent design authority to design, build and maintain good public

places.

The major areas of weaknesses for the city include infrastructure; weak urban growth management; lack of environmental management; slums, and overlapping institutional jurisdiction. The details of these have been elaborated in Table 16.2. These weaknesses need to be worked on for the city. Table 16.2: DELHI CITY-WEAKNESSES

SECTORS WEAKNESSES Infrastructure: Weaknesses of the water supply, sewerage, solid waste, drainage and road & Transport systems are discussed below. • Lack of solid waste management facilities (for treatment

and disposal) in the city leading to indiscriminate dumping of garbage and land pollution.

• Existing dumping sites are saturated and no new ones have been developed

The city has several aspects that are potential opportunities for the city. The main opportunities are in the areas of economic growth, proposed projects, state initiated reforms and heritage. These have been detailed out in Table 16.3. Table 16.3: DELHI CITY-OPPORTUNITIES

SECTORS OPPORTUNITIES Economic competitiveness

• With the presence of good connectivity, it can develop as nodal centre linked with other economically vibrant cities.

• The city has a highly entrepreneurial population • High literacy rates • High growth areas such as NOIDA and Gurgaon are

located in the vicinity • It can attract many tourists because of its rich heritage

and culture. • Due to good connectivity, the National Capital city has

the potential to attract private developers and FDI in the housing and infrastructure sectors.

• Can emerge as an “events capital” particularly after the commonwealth games 2010

Proposed Projects

• Commonwealth games-2010 is likely catalyze investment to the tune of Rs 2000 Crore on development of civic infrastructure in the city.

• With the anticipated growth rate of around 8% for GDP of India during this FY and an increase in the limit of FII and FDI, Delhi can expect more investments provided the city sells itself well in comparison to other cities

• Development of Metro Rail and its extension to other DMA towns will resolve the problem of transportation

SECTORS OPPORTUNITIES system of the city

State urban reforms

• City is initiating reforms in urban governance through implementation of various governance models such Bhagidari Scheme; E-governance; Repeal of ULCR, PPP models for project implementation etc.

• Institutional Reforms proposed for MCD by splitting it into several Municipal Corporations

• The Government is currently focusing on urban slums and improvement of basic services in JJ clusters

Urban Heritage

• Rich heritage can attract the tourists. • The local crafts from across the nation can be show-

cased for attracting business and shoppers during events such as Trade Fair and other events organized in city.

16.5 THREATS

The threats are primarily the existing weakness, which if not addressed adequately might pose threats for development of the city in the future. These are detailed out in Table 16.4.

Table 16.4: DELHI CITY-THREATS

SECTORS THREATS Economic • Wholesale trade is concentrated in core walled city area,

which attracts workers and traders to the central location-leading to deterioration of the city environment

• Lack of adequate infrastructure to capitalize on economic opportunities (roads, freight handling facilities … etc)

Infrastructure • High population growth can lead to further pressure on the infrastructure sector in the future. Augmentation of trunk services is crucial.

• Lack of sewerage system, solid waste management, poor distribution of water can lead to health problems and unhygienic conditions in the city.

• Poor infrastructure in new colonies especially in the urban extensions and urban villages are a threat to quality of life.

• Infrastructure provision in the slums is inadequate resulting in very poor living conditions.

Institutional and fiscal reforms

• Capacity building of all the government organizations if inadequate would result in non implementation of several reforms.

• Fiscal reforms are a key for carrying out projects and provision of infrastructure in a sustainable manner.

• Urban Development is the responsibility of Central government and MCD is under both Central and State Government. These overlapping roles of state and central government have led to a non functional executive system of the city.

SECTORS THREATS Conservation • Lack of repair and maintenance of heritage buildings can

lead to rapid deterioration of built fabric in the walled city.

• Continued negligence of heritage areas can also lead to loss in tourism revenues

• Walled city and Extension faces threat in the event of disasters both natural as well as man-made.

16.6 CONSOLIDATED ISSUES

SECTOR ISSUES City Economic Profile

• The comparatively large influx of low quality manpower from neighboring states could skew the skill level available.

• The lack of focus on major value-add sectors like Software, BPO, Communications and Biotechnology is likely to lead to a situation where the Value-Add per employee/enterprise would be affected adversely.

• The highly skewed gender ratio in the employment sector, with 15% females in the workforce.

City Environment Profile

• Ground Water: The abstraction of ground water is more than the estimated availability of ground water. CGWB estimates that 47,945 ha m water is extracted for domestic, industrial and irrigation purposes.

• River Yamuna: The river Yamuna stretches for 22 kms along Delhi, but after Rs 55 - 75 Crores spent per kilometer on cleaning it up, the river is more spent than ever.

• Forest Cover: The Ridge area of Delhi has degraded tremendously due to by roads, buildings, traffic, garbage dumping, lopping of trees and grazing by livestock. Mining and quarrying activities in the past have degraded the South-Central Ridge causing enormous loss to biodiversity.

• Air Environment: The alarming levels of SPM which are way beyond the permissible levels are a serious area of concern. Even the RPM levels were exceeding the permissible limits.

• Environmental Health: High occurrence of respiratory infections, heart problems, sickness from water and vector-born diseases and other diseases because of exposure to ambient and indoor pollutants and inappropriate disposal practices of municipal solid waste have become the way of life in the city.

• Green House Gases: Delhi is releasing around 16 million tones of CO2 emissions, mainly contributed by vehicles, power and residential sectors. This quantity if unabated could be a major threat to stabilizing Climate Change.

CHAPTER - 17 VISION, GAP ANALYSIS & DEVELOPMENT

STRATEGIES 17.1 INTRODUCTION

Evolving a vision for the city has been an iterative process, involving several interactions with individuals, as well as focus groups. During the deliberations, perspectives on, and aspirations for the city were put forward, in response to the perceived inherent potential of the city, vis-à-vis it’s current state of development. It is now widely acknowledged that vibrant urban areas are the drivers of a nation’s growth. In India, cities, which house only 30% of the population, contribute over 60% of GDP. In order to thrive, however, it has been observed that cities need to be strong on two fronts: economic growth and quality of life. As noted in the city assessment, Delhi performs exceedingly well on the first front, but falls far short on the second. This has also been confirmed by the recently released Delhi State Development Report, which concludes that while the city is a great place to earn a living, it a terrible place to live in. / it offers a substandard quality of life. Delhi ranked a poor 157th in the Mercer survey ranking the livability of cities in 2005. Economic growth and quality of life are inextricably linked, and can mutually reinforce each other leading to / in a virtuous cycle or degrade each other, resulting in a vicious cycle. It is thus critical that Delhi utilizes the advantage of its current buoyant economic growth to effect improvements in the quality of life of its inhabitants. It is anticipated that these measures will impact the city’s economic performance directly, as well as indirectly. Alongside this, the city needs to capitalize on it’s strengths in order to attract talent, nurture entrepreneurship, and boost the performance of specific economic sectors within its boundaries. These measures will put in place a competitive advantage / edge for the city, to ensure that that Delhi acts as a magnet for the best, and sustains its high growth rate well into the future.

17.2 VISION STATEMENT

During the stakeholder workshops, and on-site consultations undertaken across the city as part of the CDP, the following concerns emerged as uppermost amongst all stakeholders1: • Access to basic infrastructure -- safe drinking water, sanitation, drainage,

power, health care and education • Establishing an image for the city, to guide initiatives at urban renewal; and

undertaking these with the aim of recreating the city • Safeguarding the city’s depleting environmental resources – ground water,

the River, the ridge

1 Stakeholders consulted included government representatives, political representatives, academic representatives, NGO’s, RWA’s, and prominent citizens

17-2

• Assuring safety and security to all segments of the population • Making provisions for the lower income groups, who are perceived as not

having been provided. • Safe, reliable and affordable transport infrastructure, providing effective

connectivity across the city • Most critically, providing a reliable, accountable / transparent, and

responsive system of governance for the management of city infrastructure, and the conduct of urban activities / its business.

The urgent need for systems and procedures of decision making and management that could respond to the needs of the city’s inhabitants as against other interests was echoed across all groups of stakeholders. On the basis of the above, Delhi’s Vision is defined as follows: To become a highly livable city that offers a superior quality of life through a robust, employment generating economy; that is safe and inclusive, environmentally and socially sustainable; and is based on reliable infrastructure and offers a transparent, responsive system of governance dedicated to the city’s felt needs. Strategies across sectors to achieve the above vision are elaborated further below.

17.3 STRATEGY FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

The overall strategy for economic development is based on certain key observations made during the city assessment, as well as a consideration of international practices in comparable situations. Delhi, like all major metros worldwide is driven by a fast growing migrant population. Historically, migrations have fueled major economic shifts not only in countries, but more critically, in key cities. Some of the notable examples have been the growth of cities like London in UK; New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles in USA; and Shanghai in China. Similar trends are noticed in the sub continent also, including in Mumbai and Bangalore. Delhi, in particular, due to its location has been the scene of major conflicts and attendant migration through its turbulent history. This has ingrained a high level of entrepreneurship, innovation and tolerance into its character, which are also its basic strengths. The present state of the city, as defined in the previous chapter, shows a fast growing service sector that provides a major share to the GSDP (76%). It also shows a high growth in population (45% over the last 10 years), fuelled by immigration, a majority of whom are involved with the unorganized service and manufacturing sectors. Surveys indicate that up to 60 % of the fresh migrants to the city are absorbed into these sectors. Other key characteristics of it’s economic profile include • The tertiary sector, accounting for 76% of the GSDP of Delhi, is also the

fastest growing. Within the tertiary sector, real estate and business services showed 17 % CAGR between 1994 – 2004.

Page 369: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Development Strategies

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

17-3

• Trade, along with Hotels & Restaurants account for over 43.5% of the total

enterprises in Delhi and contribute to nearly 20% of its GSDP. • As per the the 55th round of the NSS, about 45 % of the employment

generated in the city is accounted for by the informal, or unorganized sector.

• The Annual Survey of Industries (2003-2004), revealed that as many as 18 %

of the factories in the city were engaged in manufacturing of wearing apparel, dressing and dying of fur. This activity has a large representation in the unorganized industrial sector as well.

A comparison with other major metros like London, New York and Shanghai shows that Delhi is fairly well placed to emerge as a leading city, at least from an economic view point, as it has all the major ingredients in place: • High growth in revenues driven by a strong and fast growing services sector,

high collection of revenues and high per capita income. • Located as the gateway for the north, it is the regional hub for movement

of goods and traffic. It is also the major port of entry for the north and is a tourism gateway.

• Intrinsic demographic advantage with a high level of literacy and migrant

population that provide it with dynamism that has come to characterize the city.

The city needs to make the best use of its resources, which is essentially the high level of entrepreneurial ability of its people. In order to unleash the true potential, the govt. needs to encourage and nurture these abilities through forward looking policies and interventions. The following strategies are recommended for sustaining the growth of the city well into the future: • Encourage high value-add services:

Delhi has the potential to become a major hub for a number of high value-add services through leveraging its locational strengths. Due to the presence of a large and fast growing base of IT-BPO service sector in its hinterland (NCR) the city is strategically positioned to provide a high quality professional manpower to these industries. With the major road corridors like the North-South, East-West and Golden Quadrilateral passing through the State, the city could also metamorphose itself into a major inland container port and logistic hub. The city has a historical advantage in this respect, being the hub for redistribution of wholesale produce in the northern region of the country. Another area that has a huge potential for generating high value addition is the fashion industry as it has the largest concentration of design houses in this sector in the country. Moreover, it has a geographic advantage in having a rich craft’s tradition in the textile sector within easy reach in regional cities such as Lucknow, Jaipur, Aligarh…etc to add value to high end products. Coupled with other life style products, this could become a major growth sector in the years to come. Also, with its rich cultural

Page 370: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Strategies Development

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

17-4

heritage, and a major port of entry, the city could be a major tourist destination.

• Organizing Low End Services:

The city has a very vibrant unorganized sector that provides it with a plethora of low end services. It is recommended that this sector be provided with a range of incentives to enable it to grow and gainfully employ the large number of people who migrate from the neighboring States in search of work to the city. One of the key incentives would be to provide this sector with simplified processes for micro-credit accessibility. In its absence these enterprises often turn to the money lenders or stagnate. This also needs to be properly propagated for effective utilization.

A key enabler for this sector is provision of adequate and reliable public infrastructure. The major areas requiring intervention and development include affordable housing, appropriate transport links and education facilities for the slums and JJ unit dwellers, which supply the majority of the work force for the unorganized sector.

• Enhancing Quality:

Measures need to be initiated for capacity building in the unorganized sector for enhancing quality of products and services, positively affecting value addition and returns. Based on the key strategies defined above for the city development and the analysis of the present state of the city, an action plan for Delhi has been defined in the subsequent paragraphs.

17.4 KEY SECTORS

The key areas that have potential for driving the economic growth of the city are: 1. IT & ITES Sector 2. Life Style Sector 3. Logistics Sector 4. Heritage & Tourism Sector 5. Education Sector

In addition to the above, it is anticipated that the large investments flowing into the construction and infrastructure development sectors due to the Commonwealth Games 2010, and projects flowing from the JNNURM process will also enhance the economy of the city substantially.

17.4.1 The IT & ITES Sector

The IT & ITES sector in India has been moving up the value chain, world-wide, in the Software and BPO services, with consequent growth in its value-addition and quantum. As per NASSCOM data, the turnover of the IT & ITES sector for the year 2005-06 was US$ 23.4 Billion, with an annual growth rate of 32%. It presently employs nearly 1.3 million people directly and has created an additional 2 million jobs indirectly.

Page 371: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Development Strategies

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

17-5

The NCR is one of the major hubs for this sector along with Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Mumbai-Pune. The city, with its large population of well educated work force, is ideally positioned to attain the pre-eminent position for providing workers for this fast growth sector. However, there is need for undertaking major capacity building exercise in consonance with the requirements of this sector. Development of a framework for boosting the KPO sector needs to be undertaken, including exploring the possibility of setting up SEZ for the purpose. The KPO sector is at a nascent stage in the country and Delhi could emerge as one of the key destinations for this due its ready availability of high quality professionals. This could particularly be in the areas of Medicine, Law, Biotechnology, Education & Training, Engineering, Paralegal Content and even Intelligence services.

17.4.2 The Life Style Sector

The high per capita income of the City, coupled with the concentration of industries in its hinterland (Faridabad, NOIDA, Gurgaon, etc.) and the inherent spending habits of the populace has placed the city in a pre-eminent position in the fashion industry. It currently hosts a majority of the top-end designers in the country. This industry along with the personal care and home care industry show a huge potential for growth, fueled by the growth of income in the NCR. As these industries are largely dependent on the services/skills of the unorganized sector, the growth in the above sectors would translate into huge economic spin-offs for the unorganized sector. It is necessary to explore the availability of land at suitable locations that could cater to the clientele in both the city and its hinterland. One such area, capitalizing on the existing location of many of these shops (albeit low-end), is the Mehrauli-Gurgaon Road. It is proposed to develop it as the “Life Style Mile”. The private sector could be invited to undertake the development of this on suitable terms. The backward linkages with the location and skills of the workforce needs to be explored and adequate infrastructural services need to be planned and provided for in a time-bound fashion for ensuring sustainable development in this sector.

17.4.3 The Logistics Sector

As discussed in a previous paragraph, the location of Delhi and its history as a trading center have placed it at a pre-eminent position in the northern part of India. It also is major transportation junction – road, rail and air. With the three major road corridors – North-South, East-West and Golden Quadrilateral – passing through the State, the city would be even better positioned as a hub for transportation and logistics in the region. The city already boasts of some of the largest mandis for vegetable, fruits, etc. The hinterland is also one of the major providers of fresh produce, apparel, leather, as well as engineering goods. The city needs to provide high quality infrastructure to complement its position as the logistics hub for the north. This could include creating multiple inland container ports at suitable locations,

Page 372: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Strategies Development

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

17-6

along with upgrading its storage capacities like cold storage facilities (critical to fresh produce) and mechanized loading, unloading and handling facilities. Integrated goods storage and transportation systems --- which would extend from the points of entry to the airport / freight terminals --- need to be explored and suitable strategies and policies need to be implemented by the GNCTD.

17.4.4 Heritage & Tourism Sector

Delhi, considered as a historic city of potential World Heritage significance due to the unparalleled richness and diversity of its natural and cultural heritage, is also one of the most prominent tourist destinations in North India, and is perceived as the ‘Gateway to North India’. Due to its location as an important node of both the Agra-Jaipur and Varanasi-Khajuraho circuits, Delhi received over 3 million domestic and international tourists in 2001-02. However, in comparison with other capital cities such as London, Rome and Paris, (comparable with Delhi in terms of historic significance and concentration of heritage resources), the potential for heritage tourism in Delhi is underutilized. BTA statistics and independent heritage economics studies indicate that London attracted almost 9 million visitors in early 2006, with monthly revenues of 3.9 billion pounds. Similarly, Paris, in 1996, attracted 12.129 million domestic and international tourists, motivated mainly by cultural reasons, generating 12.75 billion francs, and 43,000 jobs were created in that year alone. Delhi’s rich, multi-layered heritage needs to be considered as an economic resource or ‘heritage capital’, capable of enriching the quality of life of Delhi’s inhabitants & stimulating development through growth of heritage tourism. Innovative management strategies for the heritage assets of Delhi are required to ensure creation of employment opportunities linked to cultural tourism and provision of facilities for mid-range tourists in heritage areas. These strategies could include: • Adaptive reuse of heritage buildings as affordable and safe accommodation

for mid and low range tourists, within significant historic areas, • Development of attractive thematic tourist circuits linking the various

historic sites throughout the city, supported by a dedicated tourist transportation network of battery buses and other modes of transport.

Other facilities required are related to provision of well researched site signage, interpretive materials, publications and guides as well as for nurturing and development of crafts industries of the Old City. As any growth in heritage tourism is dependent on conservation of the heritage resources, appropriate strategies for heritage management, area level conservation, and adaptive reuse of historic buildings, infrastructure provision and up gradation are essential. A combination of strategies for economic & physical regeneration of heritage assets such as the Walled City of Shahjehanabad, historic urban villages and numerous heritage precincts are required which would ensure the continued relevance of the heritage in contemporary life as well as enhanced employment, educational & recreational opportunities.

17.4.5 Education Sector

Delhi is a Mecca for education with students from all over the country and overseas making it a preferred destination for higher studies. With over 187,000 students on the rolls of its nearly 150 institutions of higher education, it churns out a large number of skilled and semi-skilled students every year. These provide the base for the growth of the industries in the city and its hinterland. However, with only 15 technical and 18 medical colleges the effective output of highly skilled workforce is only a fraction of the requirements. The city and its hinterland (NCR) are poised to be one of largest conglomeration of professional services in the World, due to the globalization of services and the explosive growth potential it entails. This, along with the aspirations of its fast growing population, necessitates urgent expansion of the educational infrastructure in the city. The Govt. needs to allocate adequate land for undertaking a major expansion in the educational infrastructure at all levels so as to meet the above growth requirements. These projects could be undertaken by the GNCTD or by inviting the private sector to participate in the process. Common facilities of a high standard for research and development (laboratories, libraries etc) require to be put in place. Innovative systems, such as an independent accreditation system for universities in the city could be explored

The key issue in water supply in Delhi currently is the inordinately high level of “Unaccounted for Water”. While the per capita availability of water is sufficient to meet the requirements of the present day population, its management and distribution are such that up to 42 % of the water produced goes unaccounted for as much as 40% due to losses in transmission and distribution. Moreover, distribution is skewed, both within and between zones - from a bare minimum of 29 LPCD to a maximum of over 500 LPCD. To improve the satisfaction level of consumers it is thus necessary / critical to take effective and urgent steps for reduction of losses in a time bound manner, and enhance the management of water supply. A series of projects have been proposed to this effect, including revamping and up-gradation of the internal water distribution network; a comprehensive leak detection study; and construction of UGR’s and BPS’s in different parts of the city in order to equalize distribution. For the DJB to know correctly the quantity of water produced, and distributed, and isolate areas of loss, metering at the WTP for incoming and outgoing supplies, and supplies to various UGRs is a necessity, and has been proposed. It is anticipated that the proposed GIS mapping of the water supply network will improve management efficiencies considerably. While the city is currently well placed with respect to sources of supply, it will become necessary to augment these in the medium to long term. For this purpose, 20 high yield tube wells in the floodplains of river at Palla are proposed to be constructed, and the up gradation of Chandrawal Water Works and Construction of 8 MGD recycling plant at Chandrawal Water Works is proposed to be taken up. Supporting projects, such as new WTP’s are also proposed. In addition, it is proposed to embark on the construction of storage

facilities in the upper reaches of river Yamuna so that the allocated water as per MOU between the basin states is uniformly available throughout the year2. This will address long term requirements. The water supply network needs to be extended to currently uncovered areas. Also, in order that pricing of water supplied may reflect the costs of treatment, storage and distribution, rates will have to be revised. However, prior to this, both supply, as well as response to customer problems has to be improved. Revamping of the Customer Care Services, in order to enable greater customer access to the service provider has been proposed. Moreover, it is anticipated that bulk metering as proposed above, coupled with improvements in energy consumption and effective metering at the consumer’s end will facilitate proper revenue audits and promote a healthy financial status of the DJB. Projects proposed under the water sector can thus be categorized under three strategies: • to address water losses in transmission and distribution; and enhance

overall management of distribution • Augmentation of water supply from 790 to 919 MGD • Promotion of efficiency in service delivery and strengthening of cost

recovery mechanisms.

“In the existing areas till the arrangement of non potable water is made, potable water shall be supplied. For urban extensions and areas under development schemes, these norms are recommended with necessary provisions.”

This entails laying a dual water supply system. If this is to be undertaken, it may require laying of around 15,000 kms of network requiring very high financial outlay. DJB is considering to have dual pipe system in a few new colonies as well as planned colonies and has provided a sum of Rs 30 crores in the draft 11th Five Year Plan. This has not been repeated for in the CDP. No further mention, in terms of strategies or projects to bridge the gap in availability and requirement, is made in the Plan document.

** A sum of Rs 700 crores is proposed in the CDP for augmentation in STP capacity. This is sufficient to construct 350 MGD cap. of STPs *** Urban area of Delhi in 1999 was 701.6 sq. Kms. It is proposed to be 920 sq. Kms in 2021, a total increase of 218.4 Sq. Kms over 21 years, or an annual increase of 10.4 Sq. Kms. In 2011, the urban area will be approx. 826.4 sq. Kms. Sewerage requrement (trunk as well as branch) has been estimated @ 10 R. Km / sq. Km © As and when work will be taken, it will be against depositing of development charges by the beneficiaries.

Currently, 512.6 MGD capacity of sewage treatment is available in the STPs existing at 17 locations. However the cumulative inflow at the STPs is only 346 MGD3, due to short-comings in the conveyance network. City sewage is often discharged into storm water drains, since sewers – even where available - are heavily silted. This balance sewage is discharged in to the river and is a cause of pollution of River Yamuna. It is thus critical to rehabilitate the conveyance network trunk and other sewers in order to ensure optimal utilization of the installed treatment facilities. Rehabilitation of trunk sewers in walled city area, north & west districts has been proposed, as well as the refurbishment of SPS’s and revamping and up-gradation of internal sewers. In addition, about 60 per cent of the population in the outer areas, urban villages and unauthorized areas are not covered by the sewerage network. The sewage from these areas and inner city areas also finds its way into the River. Provision of sewer network in currently inhabited, but un-sewered, areas is thus the second priority. This is not only necessary for the health of Delhi-ites but also of people residing in downstream reaches of the river, like Faridabad, Mathura, Agra etc. Increased coverage of the conveyance system will call for the augmentation of sewage treatment capacity to meet the entire generation of sewage present day sewage generation in the city is estimated at 800 MGD as against existing treatment capacity of 512 MGD. DJB is proposing the immediate augmentation of sewage treatment by 100 MGD by 2009.

There are 1432 un-authorized colonies where sewers cannot be provided as per High Court orders. This however is leading to pollution of river Yamuna, and it is proposed that the present policy be reviewed, as part of the pollution abatement effort. Another 1080 JJ Clusters are also adding to pollution on account of generation of wastewater. As per prevailing policy sewers cannot be laid in such areas. This policy also calls for a review, subject to the overall policy on slum settlements in the city.

Projects proposed to improve sewerage in the city are thus presented under the following strategies:

• Extension and up-gradation of sewage network to intercept sewage ---

abatement of pollution • Provision of sewer network in un-sewered areas • Augmentation of sewage treatment capacity

3 Out of this, the 72 MGD STP at Keshopur is not performing to standards. Thus in effect only 346 - 72 = 244 MGD sewage is being treated.

As per draft MPD-2021, the projected requirement for Sewage treatment is 1328 MGD. The MPD-2021 further states “By the year 2021 entire Delhi should be served by regular sewerage system in a phased manner.” It is recommended that “recycling plants of treated waste water and a plan for recycling of treated waste water to meet non potable water needs and conveyance system has to be laid to carry treated waste water from STPs to the areas for alternative uses”

As a result, DJB is contemplating to set up three treatment plants, each of capacity not less than 3 MGD, to treat sewage using membrane technology / RO technology at the STPs at Okhla, Papankalan and Rithala. The treated water would be supplied to potential customers (in the command area of the plants), for non-human consumption uses; use in household toilets; for cooling purposes in power plants, hospitals etc.; thereby effecting economy in use of potable water. Rs. 45 crores has been proposed in the Draft Five Year Plan (2007 -12) for the construction of these plants at the three locations mentioned above. This has not been repeated in the CDP.

The key issues in Delhi with respect to solid waste management are:

• Efficient service delivery (collection and removal of garbage, construction and demolition debris and other types of waste, street sweeping etc.) leading to clean surroundings and feeling of well being amongst the citizens.

• Appropriate disposal of waste in conformity with the applicable rules; and

most importantly,

• Strategy for reducing land requirement Among the above, the most important concern currently is reduction in land requirement for disposal. In the absence of adequate land, the three landfill sites are being over-used, resulting in adverse environmental conditions in the

Page 380: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Strategies Development

17-14

surrounding areas. As per the present situation, Delhi is actually in a very serious situation with respect to land required for processing and disposal of solid waste. The strategies for reducing land requirement would be to maximize appropriate treatment of different waste streams, in order to reduce volumes of waste requiring being land-filled. It is proposed that the use of existing and proven technologies be maximized for this purpose, as well as new technologies are introduced, as elaborated below:

• The existing composting facilities may be re-engineered, revitalized and

capacity augmented with technical inputs and marketing support • Additional facilities for waste processing, including composting, and other

processing technologies to the maximum possible extent should be installed (for example, dry combustible waste can be processed as refuse derived fuel)

• Processing and disposal facilities be developed for construction and

demolition debris starting with pilot facilities

In addition to this, a massive and sustained campaign encouraging people to consciously reduce waste and segregate at source to facilitate waste processing would have to be undertaken.

In order to mitigate adverse impact to the environment, the immediate development of new sanitary landfills at identified sites (Jaitpur, Narela Bawana and Bhatti Mines – in that order) is proposed. Alongside this, the closure, capping and landscaping of existing dump-sites would have to be undertaken. This would have to be accompanied by a plan for disposal of waste during the intermittent period, before new sanitary landfills are commissioned and actually operated. Improvement of service delivery is critical in ensuring that quality of the environment in the city is maintained. In order to build this, sustained training for all the municipal staff as well as staff of any private operator involved in waste management for their capacity building and planning capability, has also been proposed Thus the two key strategies in solid waste management can be summarized as under; • Maximizing effective treatment processes for different waste streams, in

order to minimize land required for land fill sites • Safeguarding the environment by ensuring well developed and sufficient

land fill sites for disposal, and increasing efficiency of service delivery

The MPD 2021 makes the following recommendations with respect to solid waste management in the city (14.6, pages 110-111)

Processing of MSW and recycling of construction and demolition debris

(C&D) has been emphasized upon to minimize landfill space requirement

Note: In the absence of reliable information, the above figures are based on estimates by the MCD.

The key issues in drainage are:

• Lack of comprehensive planning and maintenance due to multiple agencies in the city looking after storm water drainage – MCD, DJB and PWD.

• Combined storm water drains and sewer drains, mostly as a bypass arrangement for blocked sewer drains

• Neglect of the natural drainage basins and systems leading to water logging and even flooding

• Lack of coordination in planning and construction of roads and drains

In order to address the above, it is proposed that a comprehensive study of the storm drainage situation be undertaken. The last Master Plan for drainage was prepared in 1977, and still remains to be implemented. The study should be followed by comprehensive planning in a way which also addresses the inter-relationship with sewer lines so that the independent identity of each is maintained. A long term planning for 30 years slotted into 5-year phases needs to be done. A detailed project report (DPR) needs to be prepared based on the study, which would then be considered for implementation

Page 382: City Development Plan Delhi

• Creation of an appropriate authority to deal with the sewer drains, the storm water drains and the natural drainage basins of the NCT area. This authority should have a well equipped planning and design wing.

• Short-term repair and de-silting of all the drains on emergency basis

• Revival of the Natural drains on the line of South Delhi Greenways Project

(proposed for Barapulla drain, which contributes to 3.69% of discharge into river Yamuna in the Delhi stretch)

• After commissioning and monitoring the functioning of the above project for

Barapulla drain, a similar study should be made in the medium term for Najafgarh drain, which is by far the largest contributor in terms of discharge into river Yamuna (51.75%)

MPD- 2021 makes mention of the following with respect to drainage (14.4, pages 107-108)

Drainage to be integral part of road development plan A proper database to be prepared and GIS based mapping and planning be

promoted Development of sub-wells under flyovers for trapping storm water Pump houses in low-lying areas should be provided Remodeling of selected drains

The approach of the CDP has integrated the above points.

17.5.5 Strategy for Traffic and Transport

Of the various issues identified in the sector, those related to the public transport system are most critical. The public transport system in Delhi currently captures only 60% of the total trips made. As a result, private modes of transport have been increasing at a rapid pace, leading to increasing congestion, parking problems and air pollution. The share of the public transport system needs to be substantially augmented in order to account for 80% of trips, at least. This can happen with citywide coverage of public transport available from origin to destination with minimum interchanges. Keeping in view the travel demand and available right of way, an integrated multi modal public transport network is proposed for development in Delhi, which would include the high capacity metro rail , light rail transit , mono rail, bus system and IRBT systems. Metro corridors and IRBT corridors form a part of the existing work in progress, while the feasibility report for other corridors is in progress. Vehicular emissions account for 67 % of the air pollution in Delhi. IT is further notable, that 2/3irds of the vehicles in the city are two-wheelers, operated on two-stroke engines, and carrying 1 – 2 passengers. It is felt that cycles and cycle rickshaws can play an important role in reducing levels of pollution. Corridors with high usage of these modes need to be identified and developed to provide safe movement of these modes which can be very effective in short distance trips along sub arterial roads, local roads and

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Development Strategies

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

17-17

National Urban Transport Policy ( NUTP )

As per the directives of the GOI- MOUD- UT – the various proposals for urban transport being prepared under JNNURM should comply with NUTP in order to be eligible for Central Govt. funding. The focus of NUTP is on the following strategies : 1. Equitable allocation of road space – with

people as focus 2. Priority to the use of Public Transport 3. Integrated public transport systems 4. Priority to non motorised transport 5. Promote multilevel parking complexes 6. Create public awareness Delhi CDP priorities and projects have been identified based on above guidelines of NUTP.

along major transport corridors near industrial nodes. The CDP identifies a few areas for development in order to promote these modes of transport.

More than 60 % of daily trips in the city have at least one part of the journey as pedestrian. Pedestrians are most vulnerable road users, and their safe movement is of paramount importance and needs to be given priority on road. Proposals for strengthening of foot-paths, and development of foot over bridges have been included in list of projects. The road network accounts for about 21% of the total area, which is above average of 12 to 15 % for urban areas. This translates into a road density of 19.2 Km. per Sq. Km (for 1483 sq. kms); and 38 kms per Sq. Km, considering the current urban area of 750 sq. kms. Being already on the high side, this limits the potential for increase in road length. The overall approach is thus to increase the effective use of the available road network -- it is felt that the available infrastructure should be utilized optimally to ease the traffic on the roads in Delhi. The emphasis has to be on peripheral roads and roads in the trans-yamuna area. There is also a need for developing area level traffic control systems and traffic management plans to optimally utilize the available infrastructure. A few additional roads required, included elevated roads, and improvement of major intersections has been proposed. Proper management and regulation of parking spaces especially in and around the commercial centers is also important in this respect. There is also a need for devising measures to control the demand for parking as it is difficult to supply as per the increasing demand. Connaught Place and the walled city are important commercial centers as well as sites of heritage importance. To retain the character of these central business districts of the city, special schemes for redevelopment of these areas have been proposed. Delhi being a major trading center for the whole of North India, attracts a lot of regional visitors and goods traffic. In order to cater to these, development of decentralized passenger and goods terminals based upon directional needs of travel on the periphery of the city itself (so that inner parts of the city can be relieved of the traffic load) has been proposed.

The overall goal of the proposals made in the CDP is to provide, promote and ensure safe, economic, and efficient movement of all categories of passenger and goods vehicles, with a focus on the provision of an environment friendly integrated multi modal transport system for Delhi urban area. In order to achieve this, projects have been proposed under the following broad strategies:

• Provision of safe and efficient public transport system

Page 384: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Strategies Development

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

17-18

• Encouraging the use of non-motorized modes of passenger transport • Equitable use of space on road and priority to pedestrians • Efficient use of existing infrastructure – removal of impediments – including

enhancement of road infrastructure and provision of efficient parking facilities

• Redevelopment of Connaught Place and Walled City as special areas • Development of goods and passenger terminals on the basis of directional

needs • Enhancement of Road Infrastructure • Awareness and enforcement drives

Specific Project recommendations (which have been incorporated under Various Strategy Heads in the CDP, among other relevant projects)

Under Strategy Head “Prepare Special Intergated Schemes for ovement in CP and Old City Area” i) Improvement Major intersections like Ajmeri Gate, Fountain Chowk, Kaudia Pal, Khari Baoli etc. at 15 locations ii) Pedestrianisation of inner circle in Connaught Place including parking below inner circle iii) Pedestrianisation ( partial ) Chowk Area with heritage considerations Under Strategy Head “Encourage Use of IPT and Non-motorised Transport” i) Provision of Cycle Tracks at Sub-Arterial & Local Level roads and streets new areas and urban extensions (ii) Road improvements for use of cycle rickshaw in Karol Bagh/Lajpat Nagar and Trans Yammuna Area

In addition to the above, the Master Plan also recommends the following:

- Expansion and strengthening of Ring rail and suburban rail system – however, the planning and implementation of rail transport lies with railways dept.

- Quick and efficient transport network between NCR & NCT of Delhi – this is already being implemented through schemes, as mentioned below: Faridabad – Noida – Gaziabad – Kundli , or the Eastern Peripheral Expressway with a total length of 106 Km., being implemented by an SPV formed by NCRPB,MOUD, ILFS and State Govt. of Haryana , U.P. and Delhi.

- Palwal – Manesar – Kundli, or the Western Peripheral Expressway, being implemented by NHAI

- rail projects for commuter travel, identified as a part of regional rapid transit system. The priority corridors in the projects include Delhi-Palwal, Delhi –Panipat, Delhi – Gaziabad. Besides these, it is proposed to extend the metro corridors to NOIDA and Gurgaon to cater to the travel demand between Delhi and NCR towns. These projects are under various stages of implementation.

17.5.6 Strategy for Urban Heritage

The City Development Plan recognizes the importance of the cultural and natural heritage of Delhi as a resource or as ‘Cultural Capital Assets’. These heritage resources, of great value, not only enrich and enliven the fabric of the contemporary city, contributing to its distinctive identity as a globally significant capital city through the ages, but also represent tremendous (and unutilized) latent potential for macro-level city environmental improvement, community level economic regeneration and revenue generation. The CDP puts forward a set of inter-related strategies for ensuring the integration of these invaluable cultural assets within the sustainable development process for Delhi, based on appropriate, participatory conservation programmes and comprehensive heritage management frameworks and plans. . The necessity for ensuring the continued, enhanced relevance of these heritage resources within the life of the community is recognized: the CDP strategies seek to ensure that the traditional links between the natural and cultural resources and the inhabitants are enhanced and strengthened, through

Page 386: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Strategies Development

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

17-20

primarily community based conservation processes, in order to improve Delhi’s environment. The overall vision for heritage management in the city can be stated as follows: “To reintegrate the natural and cultural heritage of Delhi within the overall development planning process for Delhi, and to ensure environmental up-gradation, enhancement of heritage significance and improvement of the quality of life within the historic areas in a defined time frame.” This is to be achieved through supporting the development of sustainable heritage management systems and frameworks which ensure a synergy between the activities and responsibilities of various agencies entrusted with the heritage; initiating comprehensive and mutually supportive processes of conservation, restoration, adaptive reuse, environmental up-gradation, heritage tourism and awareness generation, heritage information management and capacity building which will result in the utilization of the latent potential of the heritage resources of Delhi. The following main strategies have been identified, and projects suggested under each: 1. Capacity Building & Provision of Technical Support for Conservation &

Heritage Management 2. Heritage Resource Information Management System for integration of

heritage concerns within the development plans – Master Plan, Zonal, Sub-Zonal, Area Level

3. Area Level Conservation, revitalisation and Regeneration strategies which

include supportive and linked sub-strategies for adaptive reuse,

4. heritage sensitive infrastructure up-gradation, provision of essential community facilities, commercial areas, guidelines for new development in historic areas, strengthening of linkages with surrounding contemporary development

5. Strategies for heritage tourism, enhanced visitor experience and revenue

generation, and awareness generation. The integration of the proposals contained in MDP-2021 into these strategies is presented in the table below. For specific project details, refer Annexure 17.1.

The unsustainable patterns of prolific urban growth, production and consumption have caused the tremendous deterioration in the natural environment of Delhi. Though endowed with ample natural resources, Delhi has brutally destroyed its bounty continuously. The damage is irreparable --- the only hope being to manage and rejuvenate depleted resources. This exercise of managing and systemizing has to be air tight and consistent without any scope for faltering. The overall strategy of aiming for environmental sustainability has to start with sound planning, designing, implementing, monitoring and rectifying. Therefore a robust and effective environmental management system has to be put in place with one coordinating authority having the overall responsibility. Although several studies, white papers and action plans have already been prepared by renowned authorities in Delhi, what glares starkly at the citizens of Delhi is the lack of implementation, enforcement and accountability of the programmes discussed repeatedly in these studies. All proposed programmes have to be time bound with strict monitoring and a single point responsibility and accountability.

This broad strategy has to be complemented by initiatives at resource-use reduction, waste minimization and pollution prevention. While the degradation of forests and green cover has reduced over the last few years, many more efforts are required to conserve existing forests. Improved coordination amongst the several agencies responsible for the forest area is required. Encroachment of the forests and ridges is a serious concern and this can be regulated only by strict policing by the concerned authorities. A GIS database of natural resources in the city has been proposed in order to facilitate this. An issue of concern is the a complete lack of inventorisation of the flora and fauna of the city, and a study in order to document this has been proposed. Another area of concern is air pollution, which needs to be reduced in Delhi. The major contribution to the air pollution in the city is from the traffic pollution followed by industrial and then the domestic pollution. The reduction in air pollution measures are multi agency and would be linked to automobiles, power plants, domestic and commercial diesel generating sets, open burning, industrial operations and others. Indirectly this would be the responsibility of the automobile manufacturers, oil companies, generator manufacturers and others to incorporate designs and specifications which would reduce air pollution. Some of the major strategies for the reduction in the air pollution are: • Vehicular emissions to adhere to the Euro Norms. • Fuel quality specifications (unleaded petrol, reduction of sulphur in diesel,

benzene in petrol) have to be followed • Quality control on the lubricants • Phasing out of old vehicles • Further promotion of the usage of CNG • Improvement in the quality of CNG like reduction of benzene • Better roads and wider built up area of the roads. No kuchha road margins

to reduce the dust emissions. • Integrated multi transport system to reduce traffic congestions • Better traffic control and stricter enforcement of P.U.C • Ban on open burning of leaves, tyres, wood and other things • Increase of greenery

Further augmentation of the continuous air pollution monitoring system is also proposed under the CDP. In terms of water pollution, the strategy focuses on reduction of surface water pollution mainly in the river Yamuna. This has been covered in the two Yamuna

Action Plans. An effective time bound implementation of YAP II could achieve the required improvements. Lessons learnt from the YAP I should be included in the YAP II and the YAP III which is in the pipeline. YAP II has focussed on preparation of master plans and DPRs for the non point sources of pollution, including the dhobhi ghats, crematoria, dairy farms, slaughter houses and slum rehabilitation. Further augmentation of the plans and schemes under YAP II have been proposed under the CDP, including studies related to surface water bodies and recharge of ground water. Proposals for augmentation of ground water monitoring have also been proposed. Although there is a huge requirement for control and treatment of water, the city needs to practice cleaner best management practices to minimize water pollution and conserve water. For this community participation and creating awareness amongst the citizens is imperative. Awareness of the regulations relating to noise pollution in the city also has to be created and promoted amongst the citizens. Projects targeting both these areas have been included. If the overall environment of the city improves there would be decrease in the incidence of the disease related to the pollution. Awareness drives amongst the community, to adopt measures to keep their surroundings clean so that the incidence of diseases can be controlled, have also been proposed.

Thus the main strategies, under which projects have been proposed, relate to: • Outreach and capacity building • Enhancement of forests and green cover • Mitigation of air, water and noise pollution

Notwithstanding the above, a review of the implementation levels of various Master Plans clearly reveals that the poor in the city have been consistently under-provided for in terms of shelter. Even targets that have been set by the development agency itself ---- on the basis of projections that have been far exceeded in reality --- have not been met even to the extent of 50 %. Several studies have established that the poor are an integral component of the city economy, providing goods and services that enable city functions to be carried out efficiently at costs that are lower than would otherwise be incurred. Studies reveal that up to 60 % of recent migrants are absorbed into the service sector of the city’s economy, including trade, hotels and restaurants; transport and storage, and personal services. That they have to co-exist in the city, with a dignified standard of living, and have to be provided for accordingly, was a fact recognized by all segments of stakeholders consulted in the process of preparing this CDP. Strategies for the urban poor proposed in the CDP are based on key observations and assumptions. Foremost among these is that the legal and formal integration of poorer segments of the population into city development will substantially enhance the economy and functioning of the city by virtue of stabilizing the provision of key services currently being provided by the poor required in the formal sectors of the economy. The provision of legal housing options plays a critical role in this respect. Furthermore, provision of legal housing options must be undertaken in a manner that treats the poor as a segment of the housing market with different needs and abilities, rather than as a special group, located outside the housing market, as the poor are currently viewed. Shelter options offered to this segment must thus be tailored to the needs and abilities (to pay) of the poor, with minimum required levels of subsidy (the cost of land will, in all probability, require to be subsidized to a fair extent). Strategies are also derived from the established fact that the poor are not a homogenous group, and vary widely in their requirements of shelter. This takes into account factors such as extent of consolidation in the city, location sensitivity, physical requirement, ability to pay as well as tenure security. Shelter options may vary from a single bed and locker in a dormitory for the

17-26

male migrant, to an independent unit. The ability to exercise choice, with a variety of options, is thus, important, in the success of any programme to provide shelter for all categories of the poor. Pricing, location, and tenure conditions are critical considerations: • Price is an important factor to balance supply and demand4, determine

extent of provision (in physical terms) and determine location. • It is also noted that perceived security of tenure is accorded higher

importance than ownership per se.

As a result, the approach to slums and JJ clusters, whether through in-situ redevelopment or relocation, without security of tenure and financial assistance has not resulted in improving the living conditions of poor in a sustained manner. Equally, the granting of outright ownership at a price below market value5 (with or without conditions) has also proven to be quite unsuccessful in most cases. The overall framework, on the basis of which strategies and projects have been elaborated, thus include • To provide a range of shelter options to the urban poor --- from beds,

single rooms and dwelling units at various locations in the city. • To provide long term security of tenure, whether through ownership, or a

long-term leasehold system (without a sub-clause). To link this to location (refer below)

• To maximize in-situ redevelopment of slum and JJ clusters currently

existing in the city. Redevelopment would consist of G+1 and G+2 structures (flatted), with common, as well as individual infrastructure services. To offer the redeveloped units whether rooms, or flatted units on a leasehold basis. The terms of the lease agreement would require to be established on the basis of the upgrading programme. An option to buy the lease after 10 or 15 years could also be included, as has been so done in the Philippines National Slum Improvement Programme.

- Tenure will be common in the name of the cooperative, association of

allottees or a managing trust. Forms of group tenure, collective tenure, cooperative tenure etc need to be looked into

- Tenure will be allotted in the joint name of the head of household and

spouse - Low cost housing within affordable range may be offered for

accommodating some of the willing slum dwellers to reduce densities on slum site.

- Transit tenements to accommodate slum dwellers while in-situ up

gradation work is taken up.

4 The laws of demand and supply put a constraint on demand at a given price. However, at a very low price, the demand will be infinite, and no amount of supply can match the demand. Price thus balances supply and demand of a specific housing option. 5 Representing a subsidy that the poor cannot sustain

Page 393: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 17 Vision, Gap Analysis & Development Strategies

17-27

• To offer sites, on an outright purchase basis, at peripheral locations in the

city, ensuring that these sites have adequate infrastructure and good connectivity to work areas in the city. Development of infrastructure may be incremental, in order to keep costs of development down.

• Under relocation the recovery may be subsidized, to limited extent, as

compensatory measure for the price of displacement and subsequent rehabilitation. In case of in-situ development no such provision of subsidy should be provided to slum dwellers, who will be required to meet the cost of land as borne by the development agency, at the time of acquisition.

• The above two strategies (flats on lease hold basis in the city; and plots on

ownership basis in the peripheral areas) are to be complemented by an on-going provision of dwelling units for the poor, in order to meet projected demand. The cost and location of these should be sensitive to the requirements of the target group. Simultaneously, housing supply to other segments of the population should be stepped up in order to meet demand, to ensure that units meant for the poor remain within the segment.

• To enable private sector (including commercial entities, NGO’s and trusts)

participation in development of the options outlined above. With respect to in-situ rehabilitation, the private sector may be involved by offering part of the land for commercial development (on suitable sites). Alternatively, enhanced development rights may be offered to private parties at other sites, as incentive to undertake development for the in-situ redevelopment of sites occupied by slum dwellers (as has been done successfully in Mumbai). NGO’s and trusts must be used as intermediaries to reach finance to the poor in the case of in-situ rehabilitation; and housing micro finance options must be developed in order to do the same for plotted developments on the city periphery. These issues are elaborated upon subsequently.

The emerging strategies are thus

• In-situ rehabilitation at existing slum and JJ cluster sites, with units offered

on a long term lease hold basis (with option for purchase), through a cooperative, trust, NGO etc.

• Development of serviced plots, to be upgraded incrementally, at out-lying

locations, for outright purchase. Connectivity to work centers to be assured. • Development of night shelters in the city as well as at outlying locations

single beds, single rooms with shared facilities for long term stay managed by trusts, or NGO’s with government support

• Infrastructure up-gradation in 44 resettlement colonies • Reconstruction of government owned Katras in the walled city.

(iv) FULL DEVELOMENT OF RIGHT OF WAY OF ROAD – REMOVAL OF IMPEDIMENTS AND MANAGEMENT AND CREATION OF NEW PARKING AREAS

Present transport system of Delhi is road based and the available infrastructure should be optimally utilized to ease the traffic on the roads in Delhi. Moreover, proper management and regulation of parking spaces especially in the commercial centers can help in better utilization of facilities. To overcome the current shortfall in parking, there is also a need for developing new parking facilities using appropriate advanced technologies in busy commercial areas as well as residential areas. Projects proposed under this strategy include: (a) Traffic Management and Area Traffic Control schemes at all Grade

Separators and prominent commercial areas (b) Improvement of road corridors spread over Delhi – 251.40 km. (c) Improvement of ten major entry points of Delhi (d) Construction of Multi-Level Parking in Delhi at 12 sites (e) Parking management & Regulation at 10 prominent locations (f) Construction of underground parking in residential areas: It is proposed

to identify community areas, or open spaces that can accommodate underground parking and develop these facilities in order to decongest residential roads. Moreover, a framework for the levy of parking charges on residential roads must be developed, and the same implemented.

(v) SPECIAL SCHEMES FOR REDEVELOPMENT OF CONNAUGHT PLACE AND WALLED CITY AREAS

These include (a) Improvement of Major intersections like Ajmeri Gate, Fountain Chowk,

Kaudia Pal, Khari Baoli etc. at 15 locations (b) Pedestrianisation of inner circle in Connaught Place including parking

below inner circle (c) Pedestrianisation (partial) of Chandni Chowk Area with heritage

considerations (d) Developing Underground Parking at Connaught Place, Super Bazar,

Mayur bhawan, Shivaji Terminal as part of redevelopment of Connaught Place

(vi) DEVELOPING PASSENGER & GOODS TERMINALS BASED ON DIRECTIONAL NEEDS

19-10

The main objective of these proposals is to decentralize facilities for good’s and passenger movement, in order to relieve the load on the city network. Projects proposed are (a) Development of Interstate Bus Terminus at Bhartal, Dwarka, Holambi

Kalan and Tikri Kalan

(b) Integrated Freight Complex at Madanpur Khadar, Gazipur and Narela (viii) ENHANCEMENT OF ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE

To accommodate the additional demand for road space, there may be a need to construct elevated roads in the existing right of way along the major corridors of movement. The requirement for this should be ascertained after the impact of other proposals have been evaluated (using GIS based tools for traffic modeling). Efforts, however, are required to enhance existing infrastructure in terms of improvement of major intersections. Project proposals include: (a) East-West Corridor from Rajghat to Panjabi Bagh-12km (b) North-South Corridor from Majnu ka tila to Daula Kaun-15km (c) Prem Bari Pul (Pritampura) to Outer Ring Road along Disused Western

Yamuna Canal (d) Sarita Vihar Intersection on Mathura Road to Okhla industrial Areas (e) Elevated ring road of 68.5km, with 50.5km along ring road and 18km are link roads. These are 2 lane dual carriageway with 5km at grade and 45.5km elevated corridor.

(ix) CREATING AWARENESS AND ENFORCEMENT DRIVE The magnitude of traffic in Delhi calls for creating enhanced awareness about traffic and transport systems by running special programs; creating a traffic management data base and imparting training to road users on a periodic basis. The project cost for this objective is Rs. 16 Crore.

19.8 URBAN ENVIRONMENT

The main agencies responsible for environmental management in Delhi are the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC), Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).

19.8.1 Summary of Strategies

Projects have been proposed under the following strategies: i. Outreach and capacity building

ii. Enhancement of forests and green cover

iii. Mitigation of air, water and noise pollution

(i) Outreach and capacity Building

(a) The creation of awareness on noise pollution regulations; training in

best practices for the reduction in air and water pollution; & techniques of water conservation; these would cover citizens, community groups and RWAs.

(ii) Enhancement of Forests and Green Cover

Projects proposed include: (a) South Delhi Greenway Project: aiming at the rejuvenation of selected

drains in South Delhi through the development of a continuous stretch of green along their course.

Chapter – 19 Project & Capital Investment Plan

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

19-31

(b) Detailed study of the biodiversity and ecology of the city: To include a complete inventorisation of all the species of flora and fauna. This would provide a base document for afforestation measures including tree planting, distribution of saplings, conservation of soil and moisture; water harvesting etc; as well as for on-going initiatives such as the conservation of the Asola Wildlife Sanctuary.

(c) GIS based Database of natural resources of the city including forest and

vegetation cover, land use pattern, water bodies and others: This is a necessary tool for the effective management of environmental resources in the city.

(iii) Mitigation of Air, Water and Noise Pollution

Projects proposed include:

(a) Reduction in Air Pollution: The reduction in air pollution measures are

multi agency and would be linked to automobiles, power plants, domestic and commercial diesel generating sets, open burning, industrial operations and others. Indirectly it would be responsibility of the automobile manufacturers, oil companies, generator manufacturers and others to incorporate designs and specifications which would reduce air pollution. Some of the major strategies for the reduction in the air pollution have been outlined earlier (Refer Strategies for Development). In addition to these, a project for the augmentation of the continuous air pollution monitoring system is also proposed. This would include installation of more number of air quality monitoring stations in the city.

(b) Water Pollution: YAP II has focussed on preparation of master plans and

DPRs for non point sources of pollution, including the dhobhi ghats, crematoria, dairy farms, slaughter houses and slum rehabilitation. Further augmentation of the plans and schemes under YAP II , addressing the Dhobi Ghats, crematoria and disposal of dairy waste have been proposed.

YAP II includes the preparation of a master plan for the water bodies in Delhi in order to decentralize waste waster collection and treatment; and reuse systems to intercept polluting wastewater flow in water bodies. It is proposed to augment this master plan with a DPR to study the water quality, reclamation, catchment areas and the drainage of these water bodies under this programme. This study could also assess the potential of recharge of the ground water table through the rejuvenation of the water bodies. It is also proposed to implement the outputs of the DPR.

Augmentation of ground water monitoring stations has also been proposed.

(c) Noise Pollution: The overall goal is to minimize noise pollution in the

city. The enforcement of relevant regulation is critical, as well as awareness of the same among citizens. Awareness raising for the same has ben proposed under the project proposed for outreach and training.

While projects for land and growth management do not form part of the core focus of the JNNURM programme, this aspect remains integral to the smooth functioning and sustainable development of the city. Delhi, in particular, has

Page 451: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 19 Project & Capital Investment Plan

Client : Dept. of Urban Development, Govt. of Delhi Consultant : IL&FS Ecosmart Limited

19-35

suffered in this respect, due to the peculiar institutional arrangement for growth management in the city. While this is addressed in a further chapter, a few initiatives are proposed below, aimed at easing the growth requirements of the city, and facilitating overall management.

(a) Decentralization of trade fair from the core city: The location of the

existing trade fair grounds, which was once peripheral with respect to the rest of the city, is now fairly central. Circulation in this area is severely affected due to the tremendous traffic generated when the annual international trade fair is held. It is proposed to relocate the trade fair grounds to more peripheral locations in the city, having good public transport connectivity through the metro.

(b) Redevelopment of low density government housing estates in the

core city: Large areas of land in prime areas of the city are occupied by low density government estates. These include Dev Nagar and the DIZ Area in the north; Lodi Colony, Vinay Nagar (Sarojini Nagar, Laxmi Bai Nagar, Kidwai Nagar), Sewa Nagar, R.K. Puram, Saket – MB road developments in the south, among others. Land use these areas has now become inefficient, due to the development in the surrounding areas. Moreover the ownership of these lands by public agencies represents a huge opportunity to meet the growth requirements of the city. Several cities, including New York, Shanghai, and more recently, London, have undertaken a systematic redevelopment of areas in order to meet contemporary growth needs. In view of the limited implementation of development proposals in the past, this is now an urgent requirement of the city, and can be undertaken with private sector participation in order to defray costs (after a clear structure for the same has been developed) A study, to initiate this process has been recommended. The annual O&M cost of these projects is Rs 0.2 crore.

19.11 URBAN SLUMS AND POOR The existing agency responsible for redevelopment and relocation of slums in the city is the Slum Department, under the MCD.

19.11.1 Summary of Strategies

Projects have been proposed under the following strategies:

i. In-situ redevelopment at existing slum and JJ cluster sites, with units offered on a long term lease hold basis (with option for purchase), through a cooperative, trust, NGO etc

ii. Development of serviced plots, to be upgraded incrementally, at out-lying

locations (relocation), for outright purchase. Connectivity to work centers to be assured.

iii. Development of night shelters in the city as well as at outlying locations

single beds, single rooms with shared facilities for long term stay managed by trusts, or NGO’s with government support

iv. Infrastructure up-gradation in 44 resettlement colonies, and existing

relocation sites

v. Provision of housing (on-going) for the urban poor

vi. In-situ re-construction of Katras. (i) In-situ redevelopment at existing slum and JJ cluster sites, with units offered

on a long term lease hold basis (with option for purchase), through a cooperative, trust, NGO etc

Group shelter schemes (G+1 and G+2) are proposed. These will offer a range of rooms and flats, and accommodate (on redevelopment) more households in comparatively smaller area and better sanitation facilities. Such schemes can be promoted by the GNCTD, through Ngo’s, or trusts; or private sector participation (Private Developers).

Private Developers or Government may obtain funding from national housing finance institutions which provide low cost funds leaving enough margins for the developing agency to meet administrative and running costs. (Refer section on Institutional Reforms – Slum Housing Corporation) Dwelling units will be provided on hire-purchase basis and the title would be transferred on payment of all installments by the beneficiaries. The cost of the housing units will be made repayable over 15 years (maximum) carrying interests at the maximum 2 per cent over the rate at which the funds were acquired from the national financing institutions. Assuming an interest rate of about 8 %, , the EMI (equated monthly installment) on a hire purchase amount of Rs 50,000 would be approx. Rs. 400 per month. There are 728 JJ clusters spread over an area of 650 hectare. It has been proposed to develop G+1housing in 603 JJ clusters and G+2 housing in 125 JJ

Page 453: City Development Plan Delhi

Chapter – 19 Project & Capital Investment Plan

19-37

clusters (Appendix 19-1). Some of the land at the improvement sites would be released for high value uses, such as commercial development along arterial roads of the scheme. The surpluses realized would be used to cross- subsidise costs of housing. Moreover, the development of 10 transit camps (2 in North; 3 in East; 3 South West and 2 in West) on 10 hectare land to accommodate households during redevelopment has also been proposed.

(ii) Development of serviced plots, to be upgraded incrementally, at out-lying

locations (relocation)

Households which chose, and have the capacity to, own plots and construct units, can opt for relocation at outlying locations with assured connectivity to work centers. This aims to provide households with a means to improve their living standards through a process in which people themselves participate. Provision of infrastructure may be basic to keep costs low, with the option to upgrade incrementally. The projects identified under this head are (a) relocation of 5000 dwelling units from slum areas of city; (b) Development of site for 10720 dwelling units at Kanjhawala, Ghogha and Bapraula. The plot sizes are 27sqm; (c) Development of plot at Savda Ghevda accommodating around 20,000JJs; (d) Development of 10 transit camps (2 in North; 3 in East; 3 South West and 2 in West) on 10 hectare land to accommodate households during redevelopment.

(iii) Development of night shelters in the city and at outlying locations: It is

proposed to develop night shelters in Walled City area, near industrial complexes, and near the relocation sites in outlying areas, in order to provide long stay facilities for low income workers --- beds or single rooms with shared facilities. Five facilities are proposed. Exact location and holding capacity would have to be determined.

(iv) Infrastructure up-gradation in 44 resettlement colonies, and 11 existing

relocation sites This includes (a) Infrastructure upgradation of 11 existing relocation sites: This involves

developing street lighting system, construction of community toilets, community halls, child care centers etc.

(b) Infrastructure upgradation in 44 resettlement colonies

(c) Revival Plan for Community Work Centers: Development of the

community work centers at various locations in the city (with approximate area of 22.33m2 per work space) spread over an area of 22383m2. The project cost is Rs 29.23 crore.

(v) Provision of housing (on-going) for the urban poor: This extent of supply is

estimated to be required to cater to the demand for low income housing until 2012. This demand will have to be met in a timely manner in order to prevent the development of new slum pockets in the city. The projects identified are

(a) Multi-Storeyed Tenements at Rohini-1770 DUs; (b) Multi-Storeyed Tenements at Dwarka-2550 DUs;

In the case of urban transport projects, the standard pattern of assistance of 35 per cent will not apply. The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA), while considering any such project proposal, may decide the level of equity and/or loan to be provided by the central government. This funding pattern is proposed for public financed projects. In case of projects incorporating public-private partnerships, the Central government’s share shall not exceed the amounts prescribed.

b. Projects under appraisal by the Sub-Mission Directorate for Basic Services to the Urban Poor

Housing should not be provided free to the beneficiaries by the State Government. A minimum of 12% beneficiary contribution with bank loan should be stipulated (10 per cent in case of SC/ST/BC/OBC/PH and other weaker sections).

CHAPTER - 20 FINANCIAL SUSTENANCE PLAN

20.1 INTRODUCTION

In order to assess the investment sustaining capacity of MCD, NDMC and DJB, the municipal fiscal situation has been simulated, based on a Financial Operating Plan (FOP). The FOP is essentially a multi-year forecast of municipal finances for a term of 15 years. It has been used to forecast the revenue income and operating expenditures for the period between FY 2005-06 and FY 2019-20. In order to gauge the sector-specific fiscal situation and determine options for project structuring, the FOP has been generated for the following three major accounts: (a) MCD Accounts (b); NDMC Accounts and (c): DJB Accounts for water & sewerage.

20.2 DEPARTMENT WISE INVESTMENT

The department wise capital investments are presented in the table below. Some of the projects that are under the ambit of the MCD & parastatal departments, but can be taken up with private sector participation, have been segregated and it is assumed that for these projects 50% of the funding would be from the GoI & the State Government and some part of the balance 50% would come from the private sector as equity. In this case part of the operation and maintenance would be the responsibility of the private sector, who would also agree on a revenue sharing arrangement with the MCD & parastatal departments.

In case of projects relating to urban slums and poor, it is assumed that 15% of the project cost would be borne by the beneficiaries. Taking into account the above assumptions, the proposed means of financing for the Rs 24,140 crores investment is given in the table below.

20.3 O&M COST OF INVESTMENT

The O&M cost of various projects is Rs. 4972 Crore. In order to meet the O&M cost, due to new investments, it has been proposed to revise the unit area value, water tax (the normal revision of water tax as per DJB norms are proposed), sewerage tax and other revenue sources as discussed in the following sections.

20.4 NEED FOR REVENUE ENHANCEMENT INITIATIVES

While the MCD and Parastatal departments can contribute part of the capital to the capital investments required by undertaking revenue enhancement initiatives, innovative methods of financial structuring of the projects will also need to be undertaken.

20.5 ASSUMPTIONS FOR REVENUE ENHANCEMENT INTIATIVES

The ability of MCD, NDMC, DJB and Parastatal Departments to sustain the investments made for the identified projects is based upon the closing balance (surplus/deficit) indication, for each of their accounts. The sustainability was determined based on the criteria that the closing balance requires indicating an annual surplus in the respective accounts.

20.5.1 Key assumptions for FOP

The income and expenditure for all three major revenue earning departments namely Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) and Delhi Jal Board (DJB) accounts (water, drainage and general) were forecast and assessed as the basis for the investment sustenance analysis. The limits for the growth rates of various revenue streams have been fixed between 3% and 15%. For those heads with growth rate less than 3%, it is assumed that it will be brought up to 3%; and for those more than 15%, it is assumed that it will be sustained at 15% at least. The guiding assumptions for forecasting income and expenditure items were:

––Consultations with the Property Tax Department, MCD

f Realisation of Property Tax

MCD's revenue from property tax, before 2004-05 (year in which UAM was implemented) was approx. 775 cr. In 2004-05, it fell to 575 cr., due to the UAM values assigned. It is the aim of the ULB to return it's tax revenue to pre-2004 levels by 2007-08. It has been assumed that this will be achieved by 2008-09, at the latest (the MVC is currently reviewing the values assigned in order to achieve this)

CHAPTER - 21 INSTITUTIONAL REFORMS

21.1 INTRODUCTION

Delhi is a mega city with a projected population of 23 million in 2021. In addition, it is anticipated that another 2 million will commute to the city each day. From the analysis of the present administrative and political set-up in the NCT, it is clear that for meeting the future requirements of citizens for urban infrastructure, and a clean living environment; as well as to ensure shelter and facilities for the urban poor, much will need to be done. Re-organisation of institutions, improvements and capacity building programs are needed to meet the needs of managing Delhi 2021. This chapter discusses the agenda for institutional reforms in city governance and urban poor. It also reviews the institutional reform initiatives already undertaken at the ULB level and State Government level to successfully implement and operate the JnNURM projects.

21.2 REVIEW OF ISSUES IN GOVERNANCE Delhi is a city state and most of its geographical area is included within the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD). A small area is covered by New Delhi Municipal Committee (NDMC), a body under the Central Government; and an equal area is under the Cantonment Board. The city is divided into 9 districts for administrative purposes, as well as for the regulation of law and order (by Delhi Police). The Municipal Corporation of Delhi has demarcated the area under it’s jurisdiction into twelve zones for the purposes of service delivery. The present relationship between the MCD and the Delhi Government is rather nebulous. The DMC Act, 1957 was enacted without provision for a Legislative Assembly in Delhi, which was constituted only in 1992-93. The State Government, however, has not been given powers with respect to issues concerning land and law and order, which continue to be retained by the Central Government (acting through the Lt. Governor). The main planning authority for the city - Delhi Development Authority - also reports to the Central Government. This constrains the ability of the Delhi Government to respond to identified needs in the city. Further more, in several areas, the functions of Delhi Government often overlap with those of MCD, since the geographical boundaries of the city and the state are, in effect, co-terminus. In principal, parastatal organizations for transportation and water supply report to the Delhi Government, while solid waste management, sewerage, street lighting remain the responsibility of MCD. In practice, there are many areas of conflicting and fragmented jurisdictions. The following table traces the evolution of governance in the city since independence in 1947.

Delhi Administration

1957 Delhi Municipal Corporation & Delhi Development Authority created

1966 Metropolitan Council set up under the Delhi Administration Act

1980 – 83 No Metropolitan Council as it was dissolved by the Central Government

1990 Central Government dissolved Metropolitan Council

1992 onwards Elected Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi with a Council of Ministers led by the Chief Minister

Key issues in governance in Delhi stem from the role that the city plays as the National Capital, alongside the expectations of citizens for an effective local government. While it is in the National interest that the Central government should continue to retain a certain degree of control in the Capital city, the demands of the citizens for a local government that incorporates participation effectively cannot be ignored. With the current arrangement in the city, this latter aspiration is difficult to fulfill. This aspect and other key issues are enumerated below: • Four tiers of governance are represented in the city: Center, State, City

and Ward level. • The city, also being a state with the same boundary, has two elected

representatives as head; as well as two executive heads, with overlapping functions

• Poor coordination between the primary agency for city planning, and local,

or State Government • Planning Boundaries in the City (DDA - 15) do not coincide with Zonal

boundaries (MCD – 12); and both have no relation to the District boundaries, or functional subdivisions followed by Delhi Police (9)

• The Metropolitan Planning Committee, mandated for Metro cities by the

74th CAA, has not been instituted in Delhi

21.3 MEASURES ALREADY INITIATED FOR GOOD GOVERNANCE

The Government of NCT of Delhi through its Department of Administrative Reforms has been taking measures that cut across departments of the Government of NCTD; agencies and institutions to monitor the progress made by them. The means used to achieve improvements include :(i) promotion of the role of civil society, people’s participation & decentralization. This has sought to be achieved through the introduction of the Bhagidari Scheme (ii) Institution of preventive vigilance through introduction of E-governance for the citizens of Delhi;(iii) setting up of a dynamic website leading to e-governance for departments/agencies; (iv) Instituting the Right of the citizen to information; (v) Instituting of a mechanism to redress public grievances, of which establishment of the Public Grievances Commission is the main element; (vi) Civil and procedural reforms; synergy and Coordination and (vii) empowerment of the weak.

To promote the role of civil society, people’s participation & decentralization in governance, the Bhagidari Scheme has been introduced within government departments and its agencies including those under the Union Government (Refer Box 21.1).

Box 21.1: Bhagidari-The Citizen’s Partnership in Governance In line with the ideological concept of involving the common man in governance, in December 1998 the Government of NCTD outlined a philosophy for governance – responsive to and in partnership with the citizen – known as Bhagirdari. This has specifically stemmed from the belief that Government must work in partnership with the people and that the Citizens must feel that successful and meaningful governance cannot be achieved without their involvement and their role. To evolve a mechanism for putting the concept of Bhagidari into practice, wide consultations were initiated with various citizen groups - Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs), Market and Traders Associations (MTAs) and other NGOs. Discussions were also held with MCD, DDA, NDMC, Delhi Vidyut Board, DJB, Delhi Police and the Department of Environment and Forest. These departments subsequently became the participating Departments in the Bhagidari Programme. Launched in January 2000, Bhagidari, the Citizen’s Partnership in Governance is conceived to be a means for facilitating citywide changes in Delhi; utilising processes and principles of multi-stakeholders (citizen groups, NGOs, the Government) collaboration; applying the method of Large Group Interactive Events; developing ‘joint ownership’ by the citizens and government of the change process, and facilitating people’s participation in governance. The programme has become popular leading to major initiatives under it since January, 2002:- • Water Conservation and Water Harvesting by Delhi Jal Board & Urban

Development Department • Anti Plastic and Anti-littering campaign by Environment and Forest Department • Programmes for the welfare of Senior Citizens • Reforms in Hospital Management & Quality Control by Health & Family Welfare

Department. ‘Janhit Society’ in each major hospital has been set up with representation from RWAs of the area and other citizen groups.

• Students Welfare Committee for Government • In addition to the above programmes, Bhagidari has taken Industry Associations in

conforming areas of the city in it’s span. In Conforming Industrial Areas of Delhi have been made Bhagidars through their Industrial Associations. A High power Apex level Committee of senior officers and representatives of industry is to prepare the policy frame work for growth and development of Industries in Delhi.

21.3.1 E-Governance

In pursuance of the objective of improving governance, bringing openness and transparency and providing citizen-friendly services the Government of NCT of Delhi has initiated E-governance, with emphasis on "preventive vigilance". It is anticipated that provision of information electronically, rather than over the counter would reduce citizen’s visits to offices and their interaction with officials. A dynamic web-site, linked to various departments / agencies of the government provides on-line services, including e-applications. Also incorporated is a system of making on line complaints; checking the status of the complaint, sending a reminder and suggestions. It is expected that adoption of such measures would, in the long run, help in curbing the menace of corruption and minimize it to a large extent.

21.4 AGENDA AND OBJECTIVE OF INSTITUTIONAL REFORMS The agenda for further institutional reforms must be guided by the following broad objectives: • To clearly institute a political and administrative nodal agency, which could

provide effective governance to the NCT; • To ensure that the function and powers of this agency and its constituents,

match their responsibilities and make them fully accountable. • To enable clarity of jurisdiction of various agencies coming into contact

with the people and entrusted with various responsibilities • To structure administration such that it reaches the people and vice versa,

to solve their problems • To evolve an effective system of metropolitan planning, keeping in view the

needs of planning in the context of NCR ; • To strengthen and build capacity within the GNCTD, its constituents and

other agencies entrusted with relevant tasks, so that improvements can be brought about, even while further institutional changes are being considered;

• To make the primary focus of the system and its constituents the

functional requirements of management of Delhi 21;

21.5 TOWARDS AN APPROPRIATE PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT SET-UP FOR DELHI

The setting up of the GNCTD in 1993 with a chief Minister and council of Ministers responsible to the legislative assembly could be considered to be a landmark in the chequered political and administrative history of Delhi. The full potential of this change can be realized if the strategies outlined below are developed further for application in the city:

21.5.1 Safeguarding of Capital City Functions

Since Delhi is the National Capital, the role of the Central Government in the city is inevitable. However, the requirements of the role of capital city can be geographically contained within a defined area, freeing up the rest of the city for local governance.

21.5.2 Land Management (in areas outside the Capital City Area) As per the final recommendations of the Balakrishanan Report “GNCTD cannot tackle problems related to slums/JJ clusters and unauthorized constructions in Delhi, so long as the responsibility for land management is not given to them fully”. Responsibility for land management outside the area designated as the capital city would have to be clearly assigned in a manner that involves the State Government more fully

21.5.3 Streamlining structure and role of State and City level elected representatives

Already the MCD controls a far larger area than any corporation in the country, and is stretched to manage its functions. It is clear that one Municipal Corporation for 23 million people by 2021 is unwieldy. As per the 74th CAA, no ward should have more than 30,000 persons. This would mean 766 councilors or 1,64,000 persons per ward with no increase in number of councilors. The area outside the capital city area be could thus be sub-divided into zones (not necessarily matching the current zonal demarcations) to form Zonal Councils. (as is the case in Greater Tokyo, Greater Cairo, Metro Manila etc). This should be done keeping in view their financial & operational viability. Each zone would thus elect ward councilors to a council. The council may be headed by a Deputy Mayor. Deputy Mayors of all Zonal Councils would report directly to the Chief Minister of the State (eliminating the duality in elected heads that currently exists). The GNCTD, through legislation by the parliament, should thus be delegated powers and functions relating to municipal management. While this may seem to be undermining the urban local body, the actual impact will be to strengthen or streamline local representation.

21.5.4 Role of Zonal Councils/Corporations (ZC) The Zonal Council will be responsible for all municipal functions (relating to the provision of services, operation and management of resources) within its boundaries. In addition, it will undertake the preparation of zonal level plans within each zone; and the local area plan within each ward. Planning staff may be transferred from DDA for this purpose. Capacity building measures for the Zonal Councils would broadly include: • Creation of a data base and MIS for property tax: • Creation of a similar system for monitoring of civic services: • Preparation of bye laws for regulation of various activities • Training in the modalities involved in working with the private sector and

raising of resources from the market. This recommended structure for governance is depicted graphically in the figure below:

21.5.5 Rationalization of Planning Boundaries

There are huge citizen unfriendly overlaps within the geographic boundaries of NCTD which need to be rationalized. The worst of all the overlaps is that of the Mater Plan Zones by DDA (15 no) and MCD zones (12 no. NDMC + CPB). As most of the citizen interactions involve these two authorities, this needs to be reviwed.

21.5.6 Metropolitan Planning Committee

Article 243 (1) of the constitution states , “There shall be constituted in every Metropolitan Area a Metropolitan Planning Committee to prepare a Draft Development Plan for the metropolitan area as a whole” Delhi being a Metropolitan Area, such a committee is required to fill the gap which exists today in the vital area of planning. This committee will be responsible for coordinating the zonal level plans prepared by the zonal councils, keeping overall priorities in mind, and preparing a Draft Development Plan for the city as a whole. This Draft Development Plan will be updated on a continuous basis. The Constitution has provided for the broad set up of the committee (which is to be chaired by the CM) and the functions to be performed, and left it to the state legislature to fill up the gaps.

21.5.7 Role of Delhi Development Authority

The DDA can be incorporated into the MPC, to perform the following functions: (a) Perspective Planning; (b) making available serviced land (land connected to city level networks) in development areas; (c) monitoring development. In effect, it’s officials will perform planning and regulatory functions for all types of development. The auctions policy for land disposal should be abandoned in favour of market price allocation, and no land or built space is to be held back for long from development. Actual execution of development (construction) should be entrusted to the private sector - including individuals, co-operatives as well as private developers – and be regulated and monitored by a cell within the MPC.

Experience over the past 40 years has shown that the private sector is far better equipped to respond to various segments of demand, than a public sector agency. It will be critical to ensure, however, that land is released for all segments and uses in proportion to the registered / estimated demand. In this respect, it may be necessary for an agency of the MPC to carry out a limited programme of housing specifically targeted at the lower income groups (if the private sector cannot be attracted into this activity through concessions) Decisions relating to the development and release of land for specific uses will vest with the State Government (acting on the recommendations of the MPC), and be vetted by the Lt. Governor.

21.5.8 Constitution of an Urban Renewal Corporation (URC) As mentioned previously, Delhi has a unique opportunity in that there are large tracts of land in the heart of the city that are developed at low densities, and are currently occupied by inefficient uses. These public housing estates lie both within the NDMC limits, as well in the MCD area. Urban land is a key resource, and its management is critical to the efficiency and success of any urban area. This is keenly realized in cities that face constraints in the availability of land, such as Singapore1, but is equally important in cities, where a rural belt is available for expansion. London, for example, is currently undertaking the wholesale development of derelict tracts in east London, to make space for the additional 8,00,000 or so people anticipated in the capital city by 2016. Similarly, by some estimates, Manhattan was re-built in 8–10 phases during the last 100 years. The redeployment of inefficiently used land to meet changing requirements must thus be an on-going process, if cities are to remain at the forefront of economic growth. It is thus proposed to • Establish an Urban Renewal Commission, that will actively plan and initiate

the renewal / redevelopment of entire blocks in the city; • Develop a process for renewal that benefits all stakeholders - the owners,

the tenants, developers and the municipality; • Create a special cell within the URC that will be responsible for the renewal

of the Walled City. Since requirements and constraints are different in this area, this cell must be empowered with special instruments to promote redevelopment within a special (heritage) framework. Eg. Extra FSI could be granted as incentive to redevelop buildings in accordance to specific guidelines.

The Urban Renewal Commission will serve as an intermediary between various stakeholders, suggest a structure for redevelopment, manage the process in a transparent manner; and arbitrate disputes

21.5.9 Water Management Management of water supply and sewerage is among the most important aspects for improving the environment and public health in Delhi. The newly

1 Urban Planning in Singapore is under the charge of an Urban Redevelopment Authority, that redeploys it’s limited land resources to meet changing needs on a continuous basis.

set up DJB has to gear itself up to discharge these functions. Autonomy and professional management of the DJB has become critical in view of the likely scarcity of raw water in the not too distant future. The following specific measure need to be taken in this regard: • Rationalisation of staffing pattern • Use of commercial meters and other equipment to monitor water supply

and prevent leakage of water; • Promotion of participation of private sector in various managements

functions of the board; • Creation of a GIS database of the entire distribution network and other key

assets • Continuous Research and Development • Practical implementation of waste water recycling technologies It is further proposed that responsibilities and functions related to storm water drainage, surface water, ground water and rain water harvesting be vested with a single authority, specially created for the purpose.

21.6 INSTITUTIONAL & IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK FOR SLUMS/JJ CLUSTERS

21.6.1 Institutional Structure – Slum Housing Corporation (SHC)

Delhi along with other metropolitan towns in the country faces the acute problem of the proliferation of slums and squatter settlements. The problem of slums in city is two pronged (i) Legislative: There is no Slum Act supporting the draft policy; (ii) Institutional: Slum Department is mainly performing the role of slum clearances in accordance to the requirements of the land owning agency. It lacks adequate resources to perform a pro-active role in the management of shelter for the poor It is recommended that the current institutional framework be reorganized in order that one organization is made fully responsible for policy formulation, project development, financing, implementation and evaluation. Recommendations include • Formation of Slum Housing Corporation (SHC), through a Slum Act,

operating under the Urban Development Department (UDD) to undertake the task of provision of housing for slum dwellers. The SHC will be headed by a senior IAS Officer, specially nominated to the post, who will report directly to the Chief Secretary. He will be vested with autonomous powers as may be necessary to carry out his tasks, and ensure a lean and efficient organization.

• The SHC will be supported through funds from the UDD for a period of five

years. It will, however, operate on a commercial format

• The SHC will be responsible for in-situ rehabilitation, relocation, as well as development of special facilities to house the urban poor (transit camps, night shelters, hostels…etc). It will be supported by zonal and city level infrastructure providing agencies

• The SHC will work through and with NGO’s,trusts, private operators, as well as cooperative groups within slum communities. It will incorporate a strong community development unit, skilled in community mobilization.

• It will be supported by a fully computerized integrated information

system on JJ clusters, existing basic services and JJ households for planning implementation and monitoring of all slum improvement programmes.

• The SHC will incorporate a housing micro-finance facility solely dedicated

to financing shelter for the poor (using the title to land, or license to housing as security)

21.6.2 Funding Mechanisms

The SHC will operate in commercial format to undertake slum development activities under a Slum Development and Improvement Act. The approach for funding of the improvement schemes proposed will involve an element of cross subsidization between new high-value uses on the site and the provision of infrastructure and services on the remaining land for the poor. In the proposed approach, affordability problems will be minimized by the flow of funds from high value uses to serve the needs of the poor. It will be critical to

• Prepare alternatives for in-situ development and area development on

relocation sites, in consultation with beneficiaries and their representatives;

• Determine the appropriate amount of land to be released to high value

uses for purpose of establishing affordability of the scheme to the beneficiaries and private developer/government.

• Keep subsidies to a minimum - a mechanism for capturing beneficiary

contributions would need to be developed, and varied to suit ability to pay of as many of the target group as possible.

• The implementing agency for the scheme would contribute a pre

determined share of total scheme costs to be funded by government. All schemes (including those that are not viable for development in a commercial format) will be facilitated through housing micro-finance schemes, administered by the SHC. These will carry reasonable interest rates, and will be repayable over the long term (15 years or more). Assuming an interest rate of about 8 percent, the EMI on hire purchase amount of Rs 50,000 would be less than Rs 400 per month. In order to initiate the SHC, and ensure it’s operations in the long term, it is proposed that • all lands currently under JJ clusters (ex. railway and roads dept.) to be

transferred to SHC • On on-going basis, 25 % of all land proposed for development to be handed

over to SHC (as proposed by the JNNURM, in order to ensure an on-going supply of shelter for the poor)

While the SHC will have the independence to use the land assets at it’s disposal at it’s discretion (after this has been vetted by the CS), the exclusive focus of it’s operations will be to meet the shelter requirements of the poor in the city in a manner that is appropriate and affordable to them. It will be responsible for the management of it’s assets & liabilities, the generation and deployment of funds towards this end.

21.7 CONCLUSION The institutional reforms to be undertaken by the State Government and progress on these have been presented in Annex 21-1. These institutional reforms will provide basis to the state government to implement the projects identified under JNNURM in more effective and sustainable manner.
