INTRODUCTION

1.01 The Ministry of Urban Development has the responsibility of broad policy formulation
and monitoring of programmes in the area of urban development. Urban development is a
State subject but the Government of India plays a coordinating and monitoring role and also

India may be said to be in the midst of transition from a predominantly rural to a quasi-urban
society.
1.03 At current rate of growth, urban population in India will reach a staggering total of 575
million by 2030 A.D. According to Census 2011, as many as 52 Cities in India had a million
plus population. Over successive decades, the number of urban areas and towns has
increased, as indicated below:

been accompanied by a commensurate increase in the supply of basic urban services like
water supply, sewerage and drainage network, garbage disposal facilities, citywide roads,
public transport, and public safety systems like street lighting and pedestrian pathways. The
supply of land and housing has not kept pace with the increase in urban population.

SWACHH BHARAT MISSION

4.01 Overall Context

 The Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban) has two primary components of implementation:
achieving 100% open defecation free status, and 100% scientific processing of
solid waste - in all 4,041 ULBs in the country.
 At the time of its launch, it was also acknowledged that for SBM (Urban) to be
successful, it would need to become a 'jan andolan'.
 However, before that could happen, the government needed to ensure that an
enabling environment for a 'jan andolan' is created with a critical mass of sanitary
infrastructure / toilets constructed, and policy interventions brought about to facilitate
and enhance the pace of processing of solid waste.
 Till December 2016, a total of Rs 1,628 crore has been released by the Centre to
States under various components of the Mission.
4.02 Change in policy guidelines
 The SBM guidelines were revised this year to provide higher flexibility to the
States/ULBs to determine their own sanitation infrastructure targets, inclusion of
Public Toilets in the purview of central assistance for grants, increased base grant
for Community/Public Toilets seats, from Rs 65,000 to Rs 98,000 per seat, and
increased of grant for Solid Waste Management projects from 20% to 35%.
 In solid waste management, far-reaching policy interventions have been introduced
to facilitate waste processing and conversion to compost and energy. In order to
encourage conversion of solid waste to wealth, a variety of policy initiatives have
been taken, to encourage processing of waste to compost and waste to energy,
mandatory use of plastics in road construction, remediation of dumpsites and
landfills, and mandatory use of recycled construction and demolition waste in all
construction projects.

Page 24 Chapter 4
4.03 Mission Progress: Sanitation
 In the last year, there has been a paradigmatic shift in the way SBM is being
implemented under SBM-Urban: the focus has become more outcome oriented,
towards counting and monitoring ODF wards and cities, rather than counting toilets
alone.
 To reinforce this outcome focus towards ODF, the Mission has come out with detailed
ODF declaration protocols for cities and towns, and instituted third party inspection
procedures for verifying cities' ODF claims.
 As on date, two states - Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh, and one UT - Chandigarh-
have become Open Defecation Free. A total of 545 cities / towns have declared
themselves ODF (487 during 2016-17), while 468 among them have been certified
ODF through third party certification. 739 ULBs are poised to become ODF by
March 2017.

 Additionally, there is now renewed focus on remediation of dumpsites. EDMC,

Nagpur and Kumbakonam have initiated remediation/capping. Mumbai and Pune
have capped dumpsites.

4.04 Technology enablement and capacity building:

 MOUD has partnered with Google to launch the Google toilet locator feature. to
provide location of toilets on Google Maps Platform and also has collated community
and public toilet data in 5 cities of NCR (Delhi, Gurgaon, Faridabad, Ghaziabad
and NOIDA) and 2 cities from MP (Indore and Bhopal). The service is available to
the users having access to Google Maps app, using search words like "public
toilet" or "swachh". The app offers two types of functionalities - an 'administrator'
version, which provides access to urban local bodies of the respective cities to
add toilets to the app and also to verify them, and a 'citizen' version which provides
toilet locations to users and enables them to submit feedback after their usage.
The Urban Local Bodies of other cities are assigned to collect data on public toilets
in their respective cities. All this data is then sent to Google, which is geo-coded
and mapped.
 A national helpline number - 1969 - has been launched, to
address queries from citizens around Swachh Bharat
Mission. More than 1.08 lakh calls have already been
received on this helpline.

Chapter 4 Page 27
  A 'swachhata' app has been
launched as a grievance
redressal platform for any
complaints from citizens
related to cleanliness.
Citizens in 1,109 cities are
already accessing this app.

 An online educational portal

has been made available for
capacity building of ULBs,
where more than 30 best
practice training modules are
uploaded. More than 10,000
municipal staff have already completed various courses on the portal, and nearly 1
lakh staff are registered on the portal. Additionally, regular exposure visits are
conducted for cities, to learn from best practices across the country.
 Beyond ICT, SBM (U) has also been evaluating innovative technologies such as,
waterless urinals, smart Public Toilets, underground waste bins, solar bins, portable
waste compactors and small composting machines, which can be put in
communities, societies, market places, etc.

4.05 Encouraging citizen participation

 To supplement these physical achievements, the Government of India has been
focusing continuously on the issue of attitudinal and behavioural change, and
introducing a variety of initiatives to encourage citizen participation.
 One initiative in this regard has been the launch of the Swachh Survekshan survey
in 2016 where 73 cities were ranked on various cleanliness parameters. Feedback
from citizens was a key source of data in the survey.

Swachh Survekshan

Assessment in progress

Page 28 Chapter 4
  The Swachh Survekshan 2017, conducted over January and
February 2017, will be rating 500 cities and towns, with
increased percentage of scores coming from citizen
participation.
 Another key initiative launched by the Government of India,
which invites participation from every citizen and every
stakeholder has been the introduction of 'thematic drives (from
15th October 2015), every fortnight, where a particular sector
or 'theme' is taken up for focusing on 'swachhata'. This year, 24 such thematic
drives or 'pakhwadas' were held, each of them seeing large scale participation
from citizens across sectors.

Under SBM (Urban), MoUD has been making available a range of IEC collaterals
(soft copy of designs for banners, hoardings etc, short films and videos) through
DAVP empanelled agencies with relevant messages about sanitation and
cleanliness that ULBs can download and use during thematic drives or any other
SBM-related activity. For some of the current year's thematic drives, half - page
paper ads were taken out (through DAVP) at the beginning of each fortnight, to
spread the message about the theme among citizens.
 For each theme, a SOP document (e.g. Swachh Office SOP, Swachh Parks, Swachh
RWA SOP) was being brought out by MOUD every fortnight (from the SBM-U mission
funds, printed through Department of Printing), to provide guidelines and assessment
tools for maintaining cleanliness and hygiene across various sectors.

Chapter 4 Page 29
  Additionally, (through donor funding), MoUD is making available a compilation of
IEC materials from across the country that have proved effective, and that can be
used by any stakeholder, customized based on their requirement.
 In order to bring about attitudinal and mindset changes towards safe sanitary habits,
the Mission has been organizing massive triggering activities across the country
every quarter, alongwith municipalities, local NGOs, and Swachhagrahis, in identified
OD vulnerable spots, to sensitize communities towards toilet construction and usage.
Parallely, SBM has also launched an intensive multi-media campaign titled "Asli
Tarakki" which is currently running across various media - TV, radio, print and
outdoors, in various regional languages, to reinforce the message of importance of
toilet construction and usage. The campaign has now caught the attention of the
international media too.

 The Mission has also tied up with popular channels (comic book publications, TV
channels, private entities) to spread the message of 'swachhata' in as many
innovative ways as possible. A special edition Amar Chitra Katha has been brought
out, providing a historical perspective to the concept of
'swachhata'.
 A Swachh Bharat idea book has been brought out to enthuse
common citizens with easy-to-implement ideas on how they
can contribute to the Mission.
 At the city level, ULBs are engaging extensively with self-
help groups at the slum level, utilizing their cooperative power
to bring about collective behaviour change, by being change
champions themselves (be it in terms of toilet usage and
safe disposal, or effective waste management), motivating
other slum residents to follow suit. To lend depth to this
initiative, on 19th April 2016, an intensive community triggering drive around OD
spots was held across all cities, where ULBs, alongwith self-help groups sensitized
slum communities about the need for toilet usage and safe disposal. Swachhagrahis
have been selected from among SHG members / ASHA and Anganwadi workers,

Page 30 Chapter 4
 to undertake long-term
behaviour change
engagements with
communities around identified
OD spots, to make them ODF.
In order to intensify this
engagement, Ministry of Urban
Development has also drawn
up a quarterly triggering
calendar to keep up the
motivation and impetus of this
initiative, towards achieving
Open Defecation Free status.
A similar exercise was held on 22nd July 2016, this time with help from NGO partners
across the country. 20,000 swacchagrahis have been identified and working with
the communities. The Ministry through its designated communications agency
(DAVP empanelled), has come out with a range of collaterals (badges, I-cards,
bags, caps, etc) for 'swachhagrahis'.
 Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban) has now reached a very exciting and humane stage
in its journey, with many inspiring stories of voluntary initiatives by citizens across
the country.
 A 105-year old lady in Dhamtari, Chhatisgarh sold of her goats to build a toilet at
home; she is now motivating others in her community about the importance of
building toilets.
 A doctor couple from Chalapalli District have been undertaking cleanliness drives
in their surroundings every day of the year.
 A teenager in Karnataka went on a 3-day fast demanding toilets in each house in
her village. She finally called it off when officials promised to construct toilets in
the village.
 A mother-in-law has gifted a toilet to her new daughter-in -law.
 Three women in Maharashtra have sold of their "mangalsutras" to build toilets in
their homes.
 Girls are taking a stand against marriage into families without toilet facilities.
 Celebrity icons - movie stars, sports persons etc. are coming forward to contribute
their time and efforts to the cause of the Swachh Bharat Mission.
 RWAs in Kerala are proactively taking up decentralized composting and waste
management initiatives.
 Highly qualified professionals are giving up lucrative careers to devote time and
efforts to 'swachhata'-related technology and services.
 Media houses are devoting programs and channels to the cause of Swachh
Bharat Mission.

SMART CITIES MISSION

6.01 The Hon'ble Prime Minister has launched Smart Cities Mission on 25 June, 2015.
The Mission Statement & Guidelines were also released at this event.

Objective
6.02 The objective of Smart Cities Mission is to promote cities that provide core
infrastructure and give a decent quality of life to its citizens, a clean and sustainable
environment and application of 'Smart' Solutions. Some of the core infrastructure elements
in a Smart City would include adequate water supply, assured electricity supply, sanitation,
including solid waste management, efficient urban mobility and public transport, affordable
housing, especially for the poor, robust IT connectivity and digitalization, good governance,
especially e-Governance and citizen participation, sustainable environment, safety and
security of citizens, particularly women, children the elderly and health education.

Strategy
6.03 The strategic components of the Smart Cities Mission are city improvement
(retrofitting), city renewal (redevelopment) and city extension (Greenfield development) plus
a Pan-city initiative in which Smart Solutions are applied covering larger parts of the city.
Area-based development will transform existing areas (retrofit and redevelop), including
slums, into better planned human settlements, thereby, improving livability of the whole cities.
Development of well-planned and fully serviced new areas (green-field) will be encouraged
around cities in order to accommodate the rapidly expanding population in urban areas.
Application of Smart Solutions will enable cities to use technology to improve infrastructure
and services.

Mission coverage and duration

6.04 The Mission will cover 100 cities and its duration will be five years (FY2015-16 to
FY2019- 20). The Mission may be continued thereafter in the light of an evaluation to be
done by the Ministry of Urban Development (MoUD) and incorporating the learnings into
the Mission.

Financing
6.05 The Mission will be operated as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) and the Central
Government proposes to give financial support to the Mission to the extent of Rs. 48,000
crore over five years i.e. on an average Rs. 100 crore per city per year. An equal amount, on
a matching basis, will have to be contributed by the State/ULB; therefore, nearly Rs. 1,00,000
crore of Government/ULB funds will be available for Smart Cities development. It is
anticipated that substantial funds will be required to implement the Smart City proposal and
towards this end, Government grants of both the Centre and State will be leveraged to
attract funding from internal and external sources.
Page 40 Chapter 6
Convergence with other Schemes
6.06 Comprehensive development occurs in areas by integrating the physical, institutional,
social and economic infrastructure. Many of the sectoral schemes of the Government
converge on this goal of integration of infrastructure although the paths are different. At the
planning stage itself, cities must seek convergence in the Smart City Proposal (SCP) with
AMRUT, Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM), National Heritage City Development and
Augmentation Yojana (HRIDAY), Digital India, Skill Development, Housing for All and other
programmes connected to social infrastructure such as Health, Education and Culture.

Selection Process
6.07 The selection process of Smart Cities is based on the idea of Competitive and Co-
operative Federalism and follows a Challenge process to select cities in two stages. Each
aspiring city competes for selection as a Smart City in what is called a 'City Challenge'.
There are two stages in the selection process. The total number of 100 Smart Cities have
been distributed among the States and UTs on the basis of an equitable criteria giving
equal weightage to urban population of the State/UT and the number of statutory towns in
the State/UT. In Stage 1, the States/UTs scoring criteria and in accordance with the total
number of Smart Cities allocated to them. On the basis of recommendations of the State/
UTs, the list of potential 100 Smart Cities were announced by MoUD. Thereafter, the potential
100 Smart Cities competed in an All-India competition in Stage 2 of the selection process.

Proposed Investment
6.08 A total investment of
Rs.1,33,368.50 crore has been proposed
by the 60 citiesunder their smart city
plans. Projects focusing on revamping an
identified area(Area Based Projects) are
estimated to costRs. 1,05,621 crore.
Smart initiatives across the city (Pan City
Initiatives) account for the remaining Rs.
26,141 crore of investments. Besides
ABD and Pan city projects andamount of
Rs. 1,604.49 crore has been kept aside
for O&M cost of the Mission and other
contingencies.

CAPACITY BUILDING UNDER THE URBAN MISSIONS

BACKGROUND
6.18 The Ministry of Urban Development is currently implementing four flagship urban
missions, namely the Smart Cities, AMRUT, Swachh Bharat and HRIDAY Missions. The
actual implementation of plans and projects under these new missions requires large scale
capacities for (i) planning, design, procurement, implementation and management, and (ii)

Page 44 Chapter 6
implementing various key reforms that will have to accompany the implementation of
projects.
6.19 In this context, a comprehensive capacity building programme is being rolled out,
broadly structured under 3 components:
a. Individual Capacity Building;
b. Institutional Capacity Building;
c. Solutions Exchange (SmartNet).

INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY BUILDING

6.20 Purpose and Scope: The purpose of individual training is to enhance the functional
knowledge, improve job related skills and change the attitude of municipal functionaries.
Based on the Training Needs Analysis (TNA) conducted under the CBUD programme, the
trainings are organized around four functional categories, namely:
a. Finance & Revenue: Financial Planning and Management, Revenue Mobilization;
b. Engineering & Public Health: Water, Sanitation, Drainage, SWM etc.;
c. Town Planning: Urban Planning including pro-poor planning approaches; and
d. Administration: e-Governance, Computer and Soft Skills.
6.21 Training programmes cover elected representatives of ULBs, functionaries from ULBs
and functionaries from parastatal agencies involved in implementation of the urban missions
in the cities.
6.22 Training Strategy: The following broad training strategy has been adopted:
a. Elected representatives are being imparted training once, and the training includes
site-visit(s) to learn from best practices in India.
b. Technical functionaries are being provided training through 3 separate capsules
spread over a period of 1 year. Each capsule consists of three days training followed
by 2-3 months, during which the training will be applied by the functionaries at their
workplace. The year-long training will also include one exposure visit to best practice
sites in India.
6.23 Empanelment of Training Entities: MoUD has empanelled credible training entities
at the national level for meeting the capacity needs expressed by States.
6.24 A total of 27 training entities have been empaneled through 3 rounds of empanelment.
6.25 These include IITs, Planning Institutions, private entities of sectoral repute and ATIs
and other government institutions, several of whom were also mentioned by the State
governments as part of their SAAPs as preferred partners for training.

Roll out of training programmes:

6.26 MoUD has developed and shared standard MoU format with all the states

Chapter 6 Page 45
6.27 State Governments have entered into MoUs with multiple empaneled Training Entities
depending upon their specific needs. These MOUs will initially be for a period of 1 year and
can be extended mutually on the basis of satisfactory performance.
6.28 Eighteen states have signed MOUs including Andhra Pradesh, Chandigarh,
Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Gujarat, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh,
Odisha, Punjab, Rajasthan, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and
Andaman & Nicobar.
6.29 States have commenced training based on detailed Operational Guidelines that have
been prepared and shared (in draft form) with all the states for facilitating smooth roll out of
the programme06.30 A total of 6,250 officials (713 elected representatives and 5,537
functionaries) have been trained so far.

Roll out of special programmes:

6.30 A series of international training programmes are being organized to provide exposure
to city officials. The first of the series is being organized for Smart City Professionals in the
month of March 2017. The programme will involve study visits to noted European Smart
Cities, namely Barcelona and Bilbao, Amsterdam and Copenhagen.
6.31RfP has also been issued for selected training partners for organizing specialized
courses on corporate governance, financial management of SPVs, audit processes under
Companies Act, public private partnerships, preparing and issuing bonds, project appraisal
techniques etc. for Smart City professionals. These programmes will be conducted
periodically throughout the year.

INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY BUILDING

6.32 Purpose: The aim is to improve institutional outcomes (e.g. accountability and
transparency, service delivery, citizen empowerment, resource mobilization) by providing
support to ULBs through external experts and professionals

Progress achieved:
6.33 Credit Rating of ULBs: This is a key reform area that cities need to undertake in
order to assess their credit worthiness and is an essential condition for accessing capital/
debt markets for financing. A model RfP has been developed and shared with states for
procuring credit rating agencies from amongst 7 reputed firms shortlisted by SEBI. RfPs
covering credit rating of 300 cities have already been issued by States/UTs. The following
22 States have issued RfPs: Andhra Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Bihar,
Chandigarh, Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Goa, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Karnataka,
Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Nagaland, Odisha, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu,
Telangana and Uttar Pradesh.

Revenue Enhancement through Advertisement Tax and Property Tax:

6.34 Implementation of such reforms will help cities extract the full potential of their tax
instruments and improve the financial health of ULBs (improvement in revenue from own
sources). In the long run such reforms will reduce the dependence of ULBs on grants from

Page 46 Chapter 6
state governments. Empanelment of agencies completed. Model RfP has been prepared
and shared with all the states/cities. Cities will procure agencies from the empaneled list
based on the Model RfP.

Non-Revenue Water (NRW) Reduction:

6.35 Cities suffer from very high levels of NRW due to leakages in the distribution system,
inefficient billing and collection and unauthorized connections. Addressing these issues is
a critical reform for improving the overall performance of water supply systems in cities.
Empanelment of agencies for supporting cities to undertake NRW reduction has been
completed. Model RfP has been prepared and shared with all the states/cities. Cities will
procure agencies from the empaneled list based on the Model RfP.

Value Capture Finance (VCF):

6.36 Under this activity, support is being provided to states to undertake detailed studies
for assessing the feasibility of implementing VCF tools such as betterment levies, impact
fees, additional development rights, etc. Such tools can be directly used to innovatively
finance public projects as well as improve the overall financial health of ULBs. Empanelment
of agencies has been completed. Model RfP has been prepared and shared with all the
states/cities. States will procure agencies from the empaneled list based on the Model RfP.

Transaction Advisory for Municipal Bonds:

6.37 Support is also being given to cities for accessing capital and bond/debt markets.
Transaction advisory services offered to states will include assessment of municipal financial
health, structuring of bond instruments, identification and escrowing of suitable revenue
streams, procedural support etc. Empanelment of agencies has been completed. Model
RfP has been prepared and shared with all the states/cities. Cities will procure agencies
from the empaneled list based on the Model RfP.

SOLUTIONS EXCHANGE (SMARTNET)

6.38 SmartNet is a rich online knowledge repository developed for the urban sector
providing access to Model documents, case studies, policies and guidelines, vendors and
industry etc.SmartNet has been established to support the development of cities across
India through knowledge and experience exchange between cities, practitioners, academia,
researchers and technologists.
6.39 SmartNet has about 700 active users, actively using the resources and contributing
the repository.

URBAN DEVELOPMENT

8.01 The Ministry of Urban Development is implementing a number of Central and Centrally
Sponsored Schemes for assisting the States in meeting the challenge of rapid urbanization.
Brief details of the schemes and progress made during the year 2015-16 are given in the
succeeding paragraphs.

SCHEME FOR URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT IN SATELLITE TOWNS

AROUND SEVEN MEGA CITIES.
8.02 Ministry of Urban Development is implementing a pilot Scheme for Urban Infrastructure
Development in Satellite Towns around seven mega Cities. The objectives of this scheme are
as under:-
i) To develop urban infrastructure facilities such as drinking water, sewerage and
solid waste management etc at satellite towns around the seven mega-cities and
to channelize their future growth so as to reduce pressure on the mega cities;
ii) To implement reforms such as e-Governance, property tax, double entry accounting,
creation of barrier free environment, structural safety norms in compliance with the
National Building Code, water and energy audit of water and wastewater utilities
and implementation of service level benchmarks;
iii) Strengthening implementation of reforms such as levy of reasonable user charges,
earmarking of budgets for basic services and at least 10-15% of housing sites for
the urban poor, formulation of bye-laws to incorporate provisions for disaster
management, water harvesting and reuse and recycle of waste water and
implementation of Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects.
8.03 Further, the scheme also proposes to promote the following Urban Local Bodies (ULB)
level reforms:
 Adoption of a modern, accrual based, double entry system of accounting.
 Introduction of a system of e-governance using IT application, Geographical
Information Systems (GIS) and Management Information Systems (MIS) for various
urban services and establishment of citizens facilitation centres.
 Reform of property tax with Geographical Information System (GIS) and
arrangements for its effective implementation so as to raise collection efficiency to
85 percent.
 Levy of reasonable user charges, with the objective that full cost of operation and
maintenance is collected within seven years.

Chapter 8 Page 57
  Internal earmarking of budgets for basic services to the urban poor;
 Earmarking of housing sites for the urban poor.
 Formulating bye laws which shall incorporate provisions for disaster management,
rainwater harvesting, reuse and recycle of waste water, barrier free environment
and structural safety and shall also be in strict compliance with the National Building
code;
 Implementation of Public Disclosure Law;
 Implementation of Community Participation Law.
8.04 Selection of Satellite town is linked to implementation of Urban reforms. In the first phase
seven metropolitan cities are being covered and the central assistance is admissible for Water
Supply and Sanitation, Sewerage and Solid Waste Management and Capacity building

DELHI AND MISCELLANEOUS INITIATIVES
IN URBAN SECTOR
Delhi
11.01 As per Article 239AA of the Constitution of India, the Union territory of Delhi shall be
called the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi. NCT has a Legislative Assembly which has
the power to make laws for the whole or any part of the National Capital Territory with respect to
any of the matters enumerated in the State List or in the Concurrent List except with respect to
Entries 1, 2, 18 of the State List and the Entries 64, 65 and 66 of that List in so far as they relate
to the said Entries 1, 2 and 18. Entry 18 of the State List pertains to land, that is to say, right in or
over land, land tenure including relation of landlord and tenant, and the collection of rents, transfer
and alienation of agricultural land; land improvement and agricultural loans and colonization.
Unified Building Bye-Laws for Delhi, 2016
11.02 In order to make the building bye-laws citizen-friendly and to provide 'Ease of Doing
Business' in Delhi, the Building Bye-Laws (BBL) for Delhi have been revised after nearly 33
years after extensive consultation with the stakeholders and experts. The revised bye-laws,
namely, 'Unified Building Bye-Laws for Delhi, 2016' (UBBL) were notified by DDA on 22.03.2016.
These bye-laws have been subsequently adopted by all the Municipal Corporations of Delhi.
UBBL shall help in reducing the hassles faced by the public and make the process less time
consuming through the following measures:
Maximum time limit for granting building permit has been reduced from 60 to 30 days.
o Number of documents to be submitted reduced from 40 to 14 (for obtaining building permit)
and from 36 to 9 (for obtaining Completion-cum-Occupancy Certificate).
o Integration of Environment Clearance (EC) in Building Sanctioning Procedure for buildings
with built-up area (BUA) up to 1,50,000 sqm., which removes the need for EC from Mo
Environment and Forest & Climate Change for buildings with BUA between 20,000 sqm.
and 1,50,000 sqm.
o Integration of NOC/ Clearance from External Agencies in Building Sanctioning Procedure
which will remove the need for the applicant to go to these agencies for obtaining building
permit. All such external agencies shall prepare colour-coded zoning maps showing areas
regulated by them so that building proponent/applicant can prepare building plans compliant
with these agencies' requirements.
o Risk-Based Classification has been adopted for residential plotted buildings and
warehouses/ storage facilities/ godowns. For Very Low Risk (up to 105 sqm.) residential
plots, the plot owner has to merely submit an undertaking regarding intimation of construction
along with requisite fees and other documents to start the construction. For Low Risk
residential buildings (105 - 500 sqm.) as well as for Very Low Risk godowns (up to 250
sqm.), an architect/ engineer is empowered to issue the building permit after submitting

Page 72 Chapter 11
 the building plan along with requisite documents and fees to the concerned local body. For
Low Risk and Moderate Risk category buildings, the local bodies are required to grant the
building permit within 10/20 days.
o The local bodies shall prepare an automated calculator for building permit fee including
betterment levy, additional FAR, etc., which will be made available online and integrated
with online system of submission of building plans.
o Instead of seeking permission for commencement of construction, the owner has to only
intimate the local body to proceed with the construction work.
o All buildings on plot sizes more than 105 sqm. have to conform to the mandatory green
building requirements such as Rain Water Harvesting, Solar Energy Utilization, etc.
o All public buildings and facilities shall have provision for universal design for differently
abled persons, children and the elderly.

Payment of Service Charges / Property Tax by DDA to MCDs.

11.03 Keeping in view the financial stress being faced by the Municipal Corporations of Delhi
(MCDs), the Ministry convened meetings to resolve the long pending dispute of payment of
service charges/property tax by DDA to MCDs and to reconcile the list of assessable properties.
The processes of reconciliation of properties with MCDs were carried out. As per the criteria

URBAN TRANSPORT

12.01 India is poised for rapid economic growth. Such future growth will largely come from
economic activities in urban areas as cities today contribute nearly 65% of India's GDP. With
increasing urban sprawl, it is estimated that by 2030, this figure would reach nearly 70%.
Nonetheless, economic activities would largely depend on mobility of the people dwelling in
urban areas. Hence, development of cities through prioritizing urban transport is a step forward
in this direction.
12.02 Urban Transport is a key urban service that imparts efficiency to the city by providing
mobility to the workforce and hence best productivity. Nevertheless, traditional models of urban
transport can lock us into congestion, undue sprawl and inefficient resource use. Contemporary
models of clean and climate resilient, cost-effective and sustainable public transport not only
ensures impetus to commercial activities in urban areas but also improves the quality of life of
citizens. Therefore, a complete paradigm shift in favour of Public Transport is greatly essential.
Global experience has also shown that an efficient shift to Public Transport can occur only if
urban transport is assimilated at the conception stage of land-use and urban planning.
12.03 Ministry of Urban Development is the nodal Ministry for planning and coordination of
Urban Transport matters at the central level. However technical planning of rail transport continues
to be with Indian Railways. Similarly, road transport is the responsibility of the Ministry of Road
Transport and Highways. However, the major responsibility for urban transport infrastructure
and service delivery rest with State Government and local bodies. There are number of projects,
schemes and initiatives by MoUD, which are outlined as under:-

Urban Transport Planning & Capacity Building Scheme

12.04 A scheme providing 80% Central Financial Assistance for transport planning was launched
w.e.f. August, 2008 for taking up traffic & transportation studies/preparation of DPRs (limited up
to 50% in case of DPR of Metro projects). The scheme covers the wide gamut of urban transport
matters for promoting comprehensive & integrated urban transport planning, integrated land
use and transport planning comprehensive mobility plans, preparation of DPR, Clean
Development Mechanism (CDM), Intelligent Transport System (ITS), launching of awareness
campaign in line with National Urban Transport Policy, 2006. Presently preparation of CMP of
cities and DPR of Metro Rails projects are being assisted under the scheme.

"Decongesting Traffic in Delhi" a project of MoUD

12.05 A High Powered Committee was formed to give its recommendation on improving traffic
scenario in Delhi. The Committee submitted its report during the current financial year. The
report has been circulated to all stakeholders for implementation. The Report recommends
following four strategies to deal with the traffic congestion problem of Delhi.

Page 74 Chapter 12

LAND AND DEVELOPMENT OFFICE

16.01 WORK PROFILE

Land & Development Office, an attached office of the Ministry of Urban Development, is
responsible for administration of about 60,526 leases of the Central Government in Delhi.
These include 57,389 Residential, 1,597 Commercial, 1,430 Institutional and 110 Industrial
Properties, out of which 33,395 properties have been converted into freehold. Besides, the
mandate of the Land & Development Office includes:—
(i) Allotment of land to various Government/Semi-government Departments and
various political, social, charitable, educational and religious institutions under
the directions of the Government of India.
(ii) Administration and management of various leases granted by the Land &
Development Office, Notified Area Committee, Central Public Works Department
and Regional Settlement Commissioner, New Delhi, etc. in accordance with the
terms of lease deeds and orders/instructions issued by the Government of India
from time to time.
(iii) Conversion, Substitution, Mutation, etc. of lease hold residential / commercial
properties into free hold & execution of Conveyance Deeds.
16.02 LEASE ADMINISTRATION
The Land & Development Office deals with the following types of cases in respect of the
leased properties under lease terms:
(i) Conversion from Leasehold to Freehold of Residential, Commercial, Industrial
and Mixed Land-Use properties.
(ii) Substitution/Mutation of title.
(iii) Grant of Sale/Mortgage/Gift Permission.
(iv) Inspection of Leased Properties.
(v) Realization of Government Revenue.
16.03 COMPUTERISATION
The L&DO has embarked upon the task of computerization of its services. The e-
Dharti software has already been introduced for speedy disposal of public services such as
substitution, mutation, conversion, mortgage permission, sale permission, gift permission,
etc. This has considerably reduced the time taken for delivery of services. An Information
Facilitation Centre has been sent up to enable various stakeholders to access information.

Chapter 16 Page 173

The office is in process to facilitate:—
(i) Receiving applications online from the applicants in respect of conversion,
substitution, mutation, sale, mortgage and gift permissions, etc. The lessee will
be required to submit hard copy of relevant documents by post, etc.
(ii) Online indication of status of application and deficiencies, if any, to enable
applicants to know the progress of their cases and rectify the deficiencies.
16.04 REVISION OF POLICY FOR FASTER SUBSTITUTION
Inspection of the properties is invariably carried out at the time of substitution, mutation and
conversion besides the routine inspections. Substitution is a process by which the title of the
property is transferred to a legal heir within the family. The present procedure entails inspection
of the property after receiving the application for substitution to ascertain whether any misuse,
unauthorized construction etc. has occurred. In practice, this procedure leads to delay in
allowing for substitution. Therefore, it has been decided to do away with the process of
inspection while processing for substitution with a view to cut the delay and ensure faster
delivery of service to the lessee.
16.05 CONVERSION FROM LEASE HOLD INTO FREE HOLD
(a) The scheme for conversion of built up residential properties from lease hold to
free hold has been extended to industrial, commercial and mixed land use
premises. The details of applications for conversion of lease hold properties into
free hold during the period of report received and disposed of are as under:-
Amount in Crore (approx.)
(i) Number of applications (Brought Forward) 974
(ii) Number of applications received 203
(iii) Number of applications processed / settled 273
(iv) No. of cases pending as on 31-12-2016 904
(v) Total amount received from the applicants for conversion
of lease hold rights into freehold rights (1.4.16 to 31.12.16) 3.32
(vi) Amount refunded (1.4.16 to 31.12.16) 10.24 lakhs
(vii) Net amount (v) – (vi) 3.22
(b) The details of other applications handled by Land & Development Office in each
category during the financial year 2016-17 (the period from 01.04.2016 to
31-12-2016) are given below:—
(i) Sale permission granted 03
(ii) Mutations of title carried out 04

Page 174 Chapter 16

 (iii) Substitutions of leased rights carried out 78
(iv) Mortgage permissions granted 00
(v) Conveyance deed from lease hold into freehold executed 244
(vi) Gift permissions 00
16.06 LEASE DEEDS EXECUTED
(i) Pending cases brought forward from previous year for execution of 00
lease deed
(ii) Number of cases received during the year for execution of lease deed 14
(iii) Number of cases in which lease deeds executed 14
(iv) Number of allotments given (including temporary allotment) 12
The pendency in respect of execution of lease deed is mainly due to non-submission of
documents/payments by the allottees.
16.07 FILE AND LAY OUT PLAN INVENTORY SYSTEM
The Land & Development Office has undertaken an exercise to prepare list of properties
under control of this office, to ensure their easy retrieval. The updated data is centrally
available. Computerization (Scanning) of layout plans of area under the office has been
completed.
16.08 INFORMATION AND FACILITATION CENTRE
An Information and Facilitation Centre is operational in Land & Development Office.
Procedures have been prescribed for dealing with various types of cases relating to
conversion, mutation, substitution, sale permission, etc. of leased properties. The Information
Facilitation Centre is fully functional and provides all necessary guidance to the lessees. All
prescribed forms except the application form for conversion from leasehold into freehold are
supplied free of cost to the lessees.
The lessees/applicants can ascertain the status of their applications through the Information
and Facilitation Centre or through the website of L&DO.
16.09 REDRESSAL OF GRIEVANCES
To redress the grievances of lessees, all lessees are free to meet the Public Relation Officer
and other Officers including the Land & Development Officer, with or without prior appointment
from 2.00 p.m to 4.00 p.m. on all working Wednesdays. All the public grievances cases are

16.10 IMPLEMENTATION OF RIGHT TO INFORMATION ACT 2005

office within the stipulated time. As prescribed under Section 4 of the RTI Act, necessary
information pertaining to Land & Development Office have been put on the website and a
Chapter 16 Page 175
Compendium containing the information has also been compiled and made available for

drains to reduce flooding, pedestrian, non-motorized and public transport facilities, parking
spaces, and enhancing amenity value of cities by creating an upgrading green spaces, parks
and recreation centers, specially for children.
17.04 Under the Mission the States are required to submit State Annual Action Plan (SAAP)
to the Ministry of Urban Development after consolidating the Service level Improvement
Plans (SLIPS) received from AMRUT cities / ULBs. The criteria for utilization of central fund
is on the basis of score card, utilization certificates and project fund request as submitted by
the ULBs to the State Mission Directors.
17.05 The Mission also mandates a set of 11 Reforms which have to be implemented by the
States and 500 Mission cities within Mission period of 4 years. The AMRUT incentivizes
Reforms implementation by setting aside 10% funds as incentive for States/ ULBs. The
incentive fund will be in addition to the central Share as allocated annually. This incentive will
be based on self-assessment done by the ULBs and confirmed by the State High Power
Steering Committee (SHPSC) on the report of IRMA. The self appraisal will be part of SAAP.
Physical and financial progress of the scheme
17.06 TCPO examined and evaluated states’ claim of scoring for 28 milestones under 11
sets of reforms for the F.Y. 2015-16. In order to maintain a uniform and systematic approach

TCPO’S ROLE IN TRAINING ON URBAN PLANNING AND GOVERNANCE FROM

CENTER FOR LIVEABLE CITIES, SINGAPORE
17.14 The Government of Singapore and the Government of India elevated their relations
to a Strategic Partnership with agreement to cooperate and collaborate in several areas
including investment promotion, urban solutions, smart cities, water and waste management
and skills development. Within the strategic partnership framework, in November 2015, a
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the Singapore Cooperation
Enterprise and the Town and Country Planning Organization, the technical arm of the Ministry
of Urban Development, Government of India to further knowledge sharing on urban issues
such as urban planning, waste water and solid waste management and public private
partnerships.
17.15 The MoU provided scope for this knowledge sharing by outlining plans for 100
government officials to undergo a capability development programme in urban planning and
governance over four runs, with a designated focus on urban planning, urban mobility, and
the use of Geographical Information Systems in planning over a span of 24 months. Ministry
of Foreign Affairs of Singapore had appointed the Centre for Liveable Cities, a division of
Singapore’s Ministry of National Development to operationalise the MoU and effect the delivery
of the programme over four runs. With this mandate, CLC conducted the first planned run of
the programme from 12th to 16th September 2016, and second run from 28th November to
2nd December and the third run tabled for end February 2017.
Objective of the Programme
17.16 The objectives of the programme are threefold:
(i) To share Singapore’s experience of developing a high-density, high-liveability city
with Indian cities and senior urban sector officials.
(ii) To facilitate learning amongst Indian cities and create networking opportunities
and platforms for peer learning and exchanges amongst participants, urban leaders
in Singapore, and like-minded city leaders and administrators from India.
(iii) To provide a platform for participating officials to discuss their priority urban issues
with Singapore’s urban sector experts and develop practical urban solutions.

Chapter 17 Page 181

17.17 The programme also provided opportunities for possible public-private partnerships
between participants and Singaporean companies and agencies through its action-oriented
design and networking lunches involving Singaporean agencies and companies involved in
providing urban solutions. The action-oriented nature of the programme saw participants
assisted in formulating possible solutions to urban challenges they faced in their cities and
organizations by CLC’s urban experts.
Target Participants
17.18 The programme was targeted at Senior and Middle-level urban practitioners and policy
makers. Broad criteria followed in selecting cities and programme participants were Chief
Town Planners, Directors, Senior Town Planners of Town & Country Planning Departments,
Municipal Commissioners, Head of Metropolitan areas, local or provincial governments with
executive responsibilities in urban development and management.
NATIONAL URBAN INFORMATION SYSTEM
17.19 Ministry of Urban Development has launched National Urban Information System
(NUIS) Scheme during the Tenth Five Year Plan to develop GIS database for 152 towns /
cities in the country in two scales i.e., 1:10000 and 1:2000. NUIS scheme broadly comprises
two components namely Urban Spatial Information System component (USIS), and National
Urban Data Bank and Indicators (NUDB&I). The spatial and attribute database thus generated
will be useful for preparation of Master/Development plans; detailed town planning schemes
and serves as decision-support for e-Governance. The major objectives of the Scheme are
to a) Develop attribute as well as spatial information base for various levels of urban planning,
b) Use modern data sources, c) Develop Standards d) Develop urban indices, and e) Capacity
Building.
Physical and Financial Progress
17.20 The Ministry of Urban Development launched the National Urban Information System
(NUIS) Scheme in March 2006 with a total outlay of Rs. 66.28 crore of which 75% was to be
borne by the Central Govt. and the 25% was the State share.
17.21 Work of spatial database generation was undertaken by the National Mapping Agency,
Survey of India (SOI), Dehradun. Spatial database generation at 1:10000 scales has been
completed for 152 towns. Final data of 147 towns of 1:10000 and 141 towns of 1:2000 scale
has been delivered to SNAs/States. GIS database of 150 towns has been uploaded on
Bhuvan-NUIS portal by NRSC, and a set of tools has been developed to update/ modify
databases which can be used for formulation of Master Plans. NUDB&I data collection has
been completed for 128 towns from 25 States.
17.22 Capacity Building is a very major component of NUIS Scheme. During 2014-15, TCPO,
Ministry of Urban Development in association with National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC)
had taken up nation-wide three-level capacity building programme, the balance of which
was carried over to 2015-16. So far one National Workshop, 7 Regional Workshops and
State Level Workshops for 31 States have been organized with participation of about 2,000
personnel. Workshops are being organized for rest of the States.

ROLE OF TCPO IN ‘EASE OF DOING BUSINESS’
17.28 Model Building Bye Laws, 2004 has been revised comprehensively and Model Building
Bye Laws, 2016 has incorporated a Chapter on Streamlining the Building Plan approvals
and obtaining all the clearances within one month through on line building plan approval
system in order to ensure ease of doing business.
17.29 TCPO actively participated in comprehensive revision of Unified Building Bye Laws,
1983 and Unified Building Bye Laws, 2016 has been notified. Under the Ease of Doing
Business all the MCDs have adopted online building plan approvals and the process has
been simplified in order to obtain clearances. Officials of TCPO coordinated with Municipal
Corporation of Delhi and Mumbai in successfully implementing the online building plan
approval system.
17.30 Ministry has nominated nodal officers from TCPO to coordinate with State level nodal

building approvals TCPO has coordinated weekly meeting and periodic workshops with
Municipal Corporations of Delhi and Mumbai and Corporations of million plus cities at State
level under the chairmanship of Additional Secretary (UD)
MODEL BUILDING BYE-LAWS - 2016
17.31 Building Bye-Laws are legal tools used to regulate coverage, height, building bulk,
and architectural design and construction aspects of buildings so as to achieve orderly
development of an area. They are mandatory in nature and serve to protect buildings against
fire, earthquake, noise, structural failures and other hazards. In India, there are still many
small and medium sized towns which do not have building bye-laws and in the absence of
any regulatory mechanism, such towns are confronted with excessive coverage,
encroachment and haphazard development resulting in chaotic conditions, inconvenience
for the users, and disregard for building aesthetics, etc. It is in this context, TCPO has made
an effort to prepare “Model Building Bye-Laws 2016”, which is an improvement over the
previous Model Building Bye Laws brought out in 2004; for guidance of State Governments,
Urban Local Bodies, Urban Development Authorities, etc
The Raison d’être for revising the Bye-Laws
 Growing Environmental concerns
 Increased Safety and Security measures
 Technological Developments
 Swachh Bharat Mission
 Focus on Ease of Doing Business
17.32 In 2015, it was desired by the Ministry of Urban Development that the Model Building
Bye-Laws, 2004 needs to be revised and updated keeping in view the emerging issues like
Norms for Rooftop Solar PV Installation, segregated sanitation facilities for visitors in public
buildings, Additional provisions in Building regulations for natural hazard prone areas,
Conservation of heritage sites including heritage buildings, heritage precincts and natural
feature areas, Bye-laws for safe use of glass, barrier free environment for disabled, children
and old persons and Mitigation of the effects of electromagnetic radiation on built spaces.
17.33 A National Workshop on Draft Model Building Bye Laws, 2016 was held to obtain
comments / suggestions from the State Town and Country Planning Departments / Urban
Development Authorities/ Municipal Corporations and Schools of Planning and other related
stakeholders.
17.34 The Draft Model Building Bye-laws, 2016 were circulated to Central Government
agencies / institutes, Schools of Planning and Architecture, State Town and Country Planning
Departments, selected Urban Development Authorities, selected Urban Local bodies and
associations like CREDAI and NAREDCO for obtaining their comments and suggestions.
After incorporating the suggestions and comments, the document was finalised during the
year

Chapter 17 Page 185

The salient features of MBBL - 2016
 Safety and security
 Barrier Free Environment
 Environmental Concerns
 Adoption for Modern Construction Technology
 Swachh Bharat Mission
 Ease of Doing Business
 Rain Water Harvesting
 Effects of Communication Technology
17.35 The document is found to be very useful for State Governments, Urban Local Bodies,
Development Authorities, State Town Planning Departments and other Planning Agencies in
various parts of the country in revising their respective Building Bye Laws.
Harmonized Guidelines and Space Standards for Barrier-Free Built Environment for
persons with Disability and Elderly Persons
17.36 The Government of India enacted the Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities,
Protection of Rights and Full Participation) (PWD) Act, 1995 and signed and ratified the UN
Convention on the Rights of Persons with disabilities (CRPD) in 2008. Unlike the PWD Act,
which defines disability in relation to medical conditions and degrees of impairment, the
UNCRPD, sees disability as an interaction of impairments and barriers that hinder effective
participation in society.
17.37 To realize accessibility as the rights issue for persons with disabilities as stipulated in
the PWD Act and the UNCRPD, many agencies had laid down norms and standards for
design of spaces for persons with disabilities, viz. Central Public Works Department (CPWD)
Guidelines, National Building Code and Manual by the Chief Commissioner for Persons with
Disabilities, Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment (MSJE). Need was felt to compile the
three guidelines into a comprehensive document for ready reference.
17.38 The Guidelines are the outcome of a participatory approach through widespread
consultations with various Central Government Ministries / Agencies / Bodies / National
Institutions / State Governments. Comments and suggestions of Civil Society Organizations
in the field have been appropriately incorporated. The guideline has been published after
technical vetting by TCPO and CPWD. The Harmonised Guidelines are comprehensive
guidelines inclusive of all provisions updated and harmonized to act as an easy reference
Practitioner’s Guide for Barrier Free Designs with universal access, responding to the varying
needs of the persons with disabilities. Some line drawings / illustrations from Guidelines and
Space Standards for Barrier Free Built Environment for Disabled and Elderly Persons, 1998
are retained in this version. The Guidelines build over the existing manuals, such as:

Page 186 Chapter 17

  Guidelines and Space Standards for Barrier Free Built Environment for Disabled
and Elderly Persons, CPWD, 1998
 Manual on Barrier Free Environment, MSJE, 2002
 Annex D, National Building Code, Bureau of Indian Standards, 2005
17.39 These Guidelines explicitly covers universal accessibility standards and responds to
the varying needs of all users including those with reduced mobility. The Guidelines are
effective tool for the executing agencies, planners, designers, contractors, civic agencies,
development authorities and urban local bodies, etc. to pave the way for inclusive and
accessible built environment.

(A) RE-DEVELOPMENT OF GOVERNMENT LAND

(1) REDEVEOPMENT OF GENERAL POOL RESIDENTIAL ACCOMMODATION (GPRA)

COLOINEIS AT NAUROJI NAGAR, NETAJI NAGAR & SAROJINI NAGAR.
HISTORY
There is an acute shortage of Government housing and office space in the National Capital
Region (NCR). This has created a long list of Government officials waiting for govt. housing.
The Master Plan Delhi (MPD)-2021, encourages Redevelopment of old residential areas
with a view to utilize the existing land resources in a most efficient manner to meet the
growing demand for built up space.
PROPOSAL
It was felt and proposed that the existing housing stock of 12,970 dwelling units with built up
area approx. 7.49 lakh sqm in categories from Type I to IV should be replaced by approx.
25,667 dwelling units with built up area of approx. 29.17 lakh sqm in various categories
from Type II to VI with social infrastructure facilities of approx. 3.25 lakh sqm, approx. 2.42
lakh sqm for GPOA (including South Asia Regional Training Centre (SARTAC) along with
a 100-seated hostel and a separate office block for the Ministry of Finance) and approx.
8.07 lakh sqm for commercial use.
Accordingly, NBCC, has been nominated as the implementing agency for Redevelopment
of Sarojini Nagar, Nauroji Nagar, Netaji Nagar GPRA colonies and CPWD as implementing
agency for Redevelopment of Kasturba Nagar, Thyagraj Nagar, Sriniwaspuri and
Mohammadpur.

 PROJECT FUNDING
The total estimated cost of the project is Rs. 32,835 Crore as on 1st April, 2015 Cost
Indices including maintenance and operation costs for 30 years. The Project is proposed
to be financed through sale of built-up space in the following manner:
(A) NBCC has been authorized on behalf of MoUD to sell commercial built-up-area (BUA)
in Nauroji Nagar (25 Acre with BUA 2,97,000 Sqm) and part of Sarojini Nagar (42
Acre with BUA 5,09,900 Sqm) on free hold basis through transparent bidding system
using e-auction to generate the funds required for construction and maintenance of
the entire project. It may generate approx. Rs. 32,276 Crore.
(B) In addition, NBCC has been authorized to sell shops constructed as a part of social
infrastructure in all the colonies including those being developed by CPWD to raise
funds after keeping aside requisite number of shops for the existing allottees. If NBCC
is still unable to meet cost of construction and maintenance including their investment
with interest, then it is proposed to sell up to 10% of residential BUA for further revenue
generation. However, sale of residential space is to be avoided.
(C) The BUA shall be sold under the supervision of an Empowered Committee to be
constituted under the chairmanship of Secretary (UD). The Committee shall include
Additional Secretary (UD), Joint Secretary and Financial Adviser (UD), Joint Secretary
(L&E), Joint Secretary (Works), CMD, NBCC and DG, CPWD, as Members.
(D) The entire proceeds from sale of the commercial and residential space will be

(CMC) constituted by the Ministry. The CMC shall consist of Additional Secretary (UD)
as Chairman and Joint Secretary (L&E), Joint Secretary (Works), Joint Secretary &
Financial Advisor (UD), DG, CPWD, and CMD, NBCC, as Members.
(E) NBCC and CPWD to be responsible for maintaining the assets and services of the
respective colonies redeveloped by them for 30 years from a Maintenance Corpus
Fund (MCF) created from the sale proceeds. The amount in MCF will be transferred
from the Escrow Account, wherein sale proceeds shall be parked. For special repair,
a lump sum provision will be made as determined by the Empowered Committee.
MCF will be managed by the Capital Management Committee (CMC). Every year, a
percentage of MCF may be fixed for annual general maintenance of the GPRA and
GPOA including social infrastructure. The regular maintenance of saleable built up
area shall be on chargeable basis at the prevailing market rates in terms of per square
feet area as mutually agreed and decided with the occupants/buyers. A sinking fund
will be generated from one time lump sum payment from buyers for replacement of
plants & equipment, special repairs and value addition during the maintenance period.

6. Transfer of vacant lands to Engineering Department
It has been decided that all vacant lands lying with the Land Management Department
would be handed over to the Engineering Department after proper demarcation at site.
Details of khasra nos., longitude and latitude of sites, etc., would be clearly mentioned
in the handing/ taking over records. Apart from this, after the coordinates and also
demarcated at site, the handing/ taking over shall be done between Commissioner
(LM) and Chief Engineer (Headquarters) and the handing over of plots to Engineering
wing are under process.
7. Payment of enhanced compensation.
The payment of enhanced compensation for land acquisition as per Court orders are
delayed as the demands are not received timely by DDA from LACs and L&B Deptt.,
GNCTD. Due to this, DDA unnecessarily ends up paying substantial interest on the
component of enhanced compensation. It has been decided in consultation with LACs
and officers of L&B Deptt., GNCTD for remitting these demands to DDA in a time
bound manner so that unnecessary payment of interest component can be avoided.
The work is still under progress.

c. LANDSCAPE
Progress from 1st April 2016 to 31st December, 2016 and Forecast up to 31st
March, 2017
Delhi, spread over an area of 1497 sq. km, is one of the greenest metros in the country.
The city has experienced tremendous growth in recent times, with increased pressure
on its open spaces. Delhi Development Authority (DDA), the first Urban Development
Authority in India, has played a key role in the overall development and management of
its green spaces, with conscious efforts towards the development of open spaces as
Regional parks, District parks, Green belts, Neighbourhood greens, etc. With
approximately 3800 small and big parks under its jurisdiction, DDA has kept its
commitment of up-gradation and maintenance of green areas, which form the lungs of
the city; with its recent efforts towards development of Bio-diversity parks, river front
development, reclamation of sanitary landfill sites and rejuvenation of water bodies and
revival of lakes.
DDA has promoted conservation of natural features like the river and ridge, has
developed green belts, theme parks, urban woodlands, green areas around monuments,
bio-diversity parks, etc., which are being designed by the Landscape and Environmental
Planning Unit of DDA. This encompasses-
 Designing and policy decision related to Regional Parks as per norms laid
down in the Master Plan.
 Designing all the District Parks under the jurisdiction of DDA, along with
Neighbourhood Parks, Playfields, Children Parks.
 Special projects like Bio-diversity Parks, River Front Development and
Reclamation of sanitary landfill sites, Heritage projects and Green linkages
have been taken up by the Unit. The concept of water harvesting and

Chapter 20 Page 263

 conservation of rainwater, recharging of groundwater aquifers is an integral
part of planning of various Greens.
In the process of designing and up-gradation of green areas, efforts have been put
to incorporate design features for differently abled people. DDA has considered
and has been able to integrate such special features in their landscape design.
These design features are introduced in entrance plaza, kids play area, sitting
area and pathways. For example, entrance plaza of Millennium Park provides ramps
for the ease of access to all people with special needs.
The new wave of using eco-friendly concepts and materials in DDA greens has
been materialized by installing bamboo shelters in Reserve forests, Regional parks
and restricted forests. Toilets have been proposed in parks and playfields for the
Swatch Bharat program. Open gyms were executed for a better public health in
parks and more open gyms have been proposed due to good response received
from the public. Children play equipment with fibre glass material are being provided
for safety purpose.
The green areas of DDA are to be upgraded as per new policy with consideration
to provide facilities for people with special needs. Toilets have been designed
with facilities for physically challenged people like access ramps, maneuvering
space, etc.

Workshops
22.04 Workshops tend to promote cooperation among the participants because each
participant has an opportunity to provide input and hear the input from other participants.
Workshops promote creativity and innovation. During workshops, participants often provide
new inputs based on the previous inputs of other participants, resulting in the development of
new ideas that would not have occurred had the participants been involved separately (e.g., by
using interviews or questionnaires). Workshops work well when new ideas are needed or need
to be combined in new ways.

Delhi Development Authority
1 Report No. 31 of 2016 Delhi, being a city state and also the capital of the Country with an area
of 1483 sq. km. and a population of 1.67 crore (as per census 2011),
has a great need for planned development to make it a world class city.
Further, with the explosive growth of population, the importance of
providing necessary infrastructure in a reasonable time and effective
manner cannot be overstated.
The Delhi Development Act, 1957 (DD Act) enacted by the Central
Government in 1957 provides that the objective of the Delhi Development
Authority (DDA) shall be to promote and secure the development of
Delhi according to the Master Plan. Thus, DDA is responsible for
acquisition and development of land for various developmental schemes
as per the Master Plan approved by the Central Government. The land
is acquired through Delhi Government and placed at the disposal of
DDA for development purposes as approved under the various
development schemes.
Audit Objectives and Scope
The Performance Audit was conducted to assess:
 Whether land management activities were executed with
efficiency, economy and effectiveness and whether these were
undertaken in accordance with the applicable legal and regulatory
framework;
 Whether an efficient planning mechanism for carrying out the
land activities was in place and was functional;
 Whether an effective system of record management and
documentation existed and was functional;
 Whether an effective and efficient internal controland monitoring
system for planned implementation of the land management
activities.
Report No. 31 of 2016 The land management activities in DDA commence with the planning
for acquisition ofland. Requests for acquisition of land are sent to Delhi
Government. Land acquired by Delhi Government as per the Land
Acquisition Act, 1894 (replaced by 'The Right to Fair Compensation
and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement
Act, 2013') is handed over to the Land Management (LM) Wing of DDA.
The land taken over by LM Wing is to be transferred to the user
department/Engineering Wing of DDA for developing the same as per
the relevant development schemes and the Master Plan requirements.
The developed land should be disposed off for various purposes including
institutional, residential, commercial and industrial use, by DDA in

Appendices Page 299

accordance with the provisions ofNazul Rules by the Land Disposal

(LD) wing. Protection of the land with DDA is an indispensable function
of land management and planned development. Land Protection activities
are carried out by the LM and Engineering wings of DDA. Activities
relating to land. acquisition, development, protection and disposal were
examined by Audit at DDA Headquarters as well as various field offices.
 Non-receipt of utilisation certificate from Delhi Government.
 Non receipt of land even after release of full payment.
 Double payment of enhanced compensation.
There was delay in completion of land acquisition process. Time taken
for release of compensation to Delhi Government, after receipt of demand
from Delhi Government, ranged from seven month to more than eight
years. Further, the time taken for transfer of land to user departments
(or non transfer of land upto October 2016), after taking possession of
land from Delhi Government, ranged from one month to more than nine
years.
In respect of seven cases of acquisition, although the awards were
announced before 01 January 2009 for acquisition of 2052 acres of
land, physical possession of only 486 acres of land was received up to
October 2016. As such, land measuring 1566 acres has not been
received(June/October 2016) which may lapse, in view of the Land
Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013.
Land Development
Proper and effective planning was important for timely and cost effective
implementation of the development activities. It was important that plans
for development were prepared after carrying out proper site surveys,
necessary technical studies and in accordance with the identified
requirements. Audit noticed various deficiencies in planning for land
development activities, which included:
 Non availability of clear site before award of work.
 Delay in submission of structural drawings.
 Failure to take required approvals from various bodies before
start of work.
 Non approval of revised administrative approvals & expenditure
sanctions and non revision of technical sanctions.
 Foreclosure of work due to encroachments, agitations and court
orders.
Audit noticed delay ranging from six months to more than 17 years in
start of work, after the approval of layout planl administrative approval
and expenditure sanction by the competent authority. Further, delay in
completion of works was noticed in the range of three to 43 months.
Delays ranging from 15 months to 55 months were also noticed in
handing over of completed works to the concerned authorities.
Joint Inspection with DDA'representatives' revealed non-utilisation of
land handed over to user departments.

Land Disposal
Audit noted that there was neither a documented policy/timeframe to
prioritize, schedule and plan the land disposal activities nor a centralized
record/database of number of plots available and disposed off by DDA
treating it as a strip of land. The correctness of the current market price
arrived at could not be verified in audit due to absence of any record in
this regard. The case was also not referred to the Land Allotment Advisory
Committee, which recommends the cases of allotments for commercial
purposes and industrial uses.
DDA announced 'ROHINI' residential scheme in the year 1981. While
announcing the scheme, it was envisaged that the allotment would be
made through draw oflots periodically. 16 draws were held between
1982 and 2014. During the period covered in audit, DDA had issued
possession letters to 125 applicants. Audit! test check of records of 24
cases provided to audit revealed certain deficiencies such as delay in
holding draw for allotment, deficiencies in submission of required
documents; loss of revenue in respect of unearned increase etc.
Alternative allotment of residential plot is given on the recommendation
of Delhi Government to the persons whose land was acquired for planned
development of Delhi under the scheme of Large Scale Acquisition,
Development and Disposal of land in Delhi. Once recommended, DDA
Vias to prepare a seniority list and make allotment of alternative plots
through periodic draw of lots. During test check of 17 alternative allotment
cases, issues like-delay in making alternative allotment; delay in handing
over the plot to allottees; allotment of land in excess of the prescribed
norms etc. were noticed.
DDA allots land to a Government Department as per request of the
concerned department for construction of school, hospital, police station,
bus depot etc. In the test checked cases of allotment of land to
Government Departments, Audit noticed the following deficiencies:
 Delay in processing of cases ranging from five to 93 months
 Failure to hand over plots.
 Allotment of land in excess/short of the 1101111S prescribed in
the Master Plan of Delhi.
Joint Inspection with DDA representatives revealed instances of land
not being used or being used unauthorisedly and land lying vacant as
no construction had been carried out by the allottees at the site.
Land Protection
In the scenario of growing population with increasing demand of land for
various purposes, land being a premium and finite asset with resultant
existence of various vested interests, it was very important to have a
robust and effective land protection system. With regard to the land
protection activities, Audit observed that:
 Information pertaining to vacant land, land under encroachment
and land being protected was incomplete and not updated

Internal Audit and Accounts

Internal Audit was not able to complete audit of various units at the
required periodicity of audit. Settlement of pending internal audit
paragraphs was also slow.
DDA was not preparing Income and Expenditure Accounts and Balance
Sheet 111 respect of its Nazul-II lands.
 There were differences in the amounts reported in different
branches for expenditure incurred on acquisition of land.
DDA, in its reply (June/October 2016) as well as in the Exit Conference,
stated that Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) relating to Land
Management and Mobile Applications for land protection and e-
Measurement Books have been developed (2015-16) and are being
implemented.
