Abstract Slum rehabilitation is to rebuild the homes, reunite the community and re- renders the

living standards and habits. The basic objective of the slum rehabilitation scheme is to

strive for holistic slum development with a healthy and enabling urban environment by

providing adequate shelter and basic infrastructure facilities to the slum dwellers.

Urban environment is increasingly under pressure with the shortage in housing

provision. A significant urban population resides in slums. Unsafe, unsecured, and

unsanitary living conditions; lack of basic services. It has been observed that there are a

number of deficiencies in the programme launched by the Government. The problems in

implementation arise both from the people living in the slums, who lack sensitivity

towards the benefits of improvement on the quality of their lives and the implementing

agencies which are almost non-functional. The programmes targeted at this section of

the society need to be made more practical and implemented with more commitment

from the public agencies. To create ‘slum free cities’ in future there is an urgent need for

improving the local government.

Sanjay M. Bagade, Prof. A. K. Gupta , D. B. Desai:: Slum Rehabilitation Scheme: Problems in Implementation and Their Remedies- A Case Study Of Slum Rehabilitation Scheme In Ichalkaranji

1. Introduction

Hon‟ble prime minister in his address to the nation on 15 August 2009 stated, today, lakh of our

citizen live in slums, which lack basic amentias; we wish to make our country slum free as early as

possible in the next five years. Through Slum rehabilitation scheme we have to provide the support

to enable stated to redevelop all existing slum in a holistic and integrated way and to create new

affordable housing stock and envisages a “slum-free-India with inclusive and equitable cities in

which every citizen has access to basic civic and social services and decent shelter, India has

experienced a high rate of urbanization since independence due to the industrial and economic

growth oriented policies.[5]

Unfortunately, the concentration of urban population has been in the large cities. Potential

of employment because of the intense industrial and commercial activities in major cities have

drawn migrants from rural area where no planning benefits have reached. Over-urbanization has

deteriorated the urban quality of life in general. Housing shortage and lack of adequate basic

infrastructure like water supply, sanitation and amenities like health and education and the

unorganized and unplanned development of slums has become integral part of city. The rapidity

and enormous volume of rural-to-urban migration intensifies slum formation. City planning and

management systems are unable to provide necessary facilities and infrastructure to slum

dwellers.[1]

Millions of urban Poor are live in squalid, unsafe environment with multiple threats to

their health and security. They are exposed to disease, crime and are vulnerable to natural disaster.

The percentage of development of slums is always seen higher in our country. Since they are

people with very low income or no income, at all finding a place to live in is a challenge for them.

A slum area is always undeveloped, unhygienic and lacks of important elements that are required

for a hygienic and healthy living. Slums are not „Problems‟ that have to be solved and controlled in

next couple of decades by making urban policies, covering land ownership, infrastructure

provision and other socioeconomic issues. Government has initiating for this. Recently central

finance minister Mr. Arun Jetly has made the provision of „Home to all‟ up to 2022 in budget of

2014-15.Through „Slum Rehabilitation Scheme‟ there is a good chance that the new and upcoming

generation may stay away from slum dwelling. It may be take some duration. The problems

prevailing in slums give us the challenge to rebuild a society.

1.1 Need for slum Rehabilitation

India is the second highest populated nation in the world and forecasted to be most populated till

2025; approximately 31% of population of India resides in urban areas and with 70% of expected

urban population growth during 2000-2050. It will be major contributor in expected urban

population, increment globally, however, still inhabiting about 17% of the urban population in

slums. The slum population in India has increased during 2001-2011, the census report of 2001

shows that the number of towns having slum in India was 1743, and as per census 2011 the number

of towns having slums are 2613, that means 49.91% slums towns has increased in a decade. As per

census 2001, the slum reported towns in India was 1743 with total slum population 5 23 71589 and

as per census 2011 the slum reported towns in India are 2613 with their total slum population

65494604.Thatmeans there is absolute change in 2001-11 which calculated 13123015 population

means that 25.1% decadal growth is there in India. As per the constitutional right (Article 38 of the

Indian constitution) provides that the state shall strive to minimize the inequalities in status,

64




facilities and opportunities not only amongst individuals but amongst group of people residing in

different areas. It is necessary to give them to opportunity to secure good health, immunity from

curable diseases, employment opportunity. Sufficient and nutritious food, clean water and a clean

environment, capability to protect their children against exploitation and discrimination, their

children should have the right to get adequate education for becoming responsible citizen of India.

The slums and hutment dwellers of unauthorized structures form an integral part of city. They have

a share and maintaining the commercial, industrial and economic importance of city, it is

imperative to enhance their standard of living by uplifting the slum and hutment dwellers from

their present levels thus the slum Rehabilitation is necessary to rebuilt a society and reconstructing

the society that is more equitable where equal opportunities could be provided to all for living with

dignity.

2. Background To The Study

2.1 Types of slum rehabilitation scheme.

Three types of slum rehabilitation scheme are permissible. These types are as per the provision of

different sections of development control regulation. (DCR) Under which they are approved viz.

Provision of DCR 33(10) also called in situ scheme. The scheme approved under the provision of

this DC regulation, the slums are rehabilitated on the same site. Provision of section 33(11) also

called PAP scheme. The scheme approved under the provision of this DC regulation, an owner of

vacant unencumbered land can use it for construction of PAP tenements for which he is

compensated by TDR for land and for construction. Provision of DCR 33(14) also called Transit

scheme. In this scheme, the land owner is allowed to consume the existing FSI potential of the land

own by him. The additional potential of 1.5 for suburbs, 1.66 for difficult areas and 1.0 for island

city. (Only for government or public sector plot) is granted under this scheme the developer

construct transits tenements out of a prescribed part of this additional potential. The balance of the

additional potential is allowed as free sale components. [3]

2.2 Slum Rehabilitation Authority for Scheme Implementation.

Authority under section 3A

i. The state government may by notification in the official Gazette, appoint an authority to be

called the slum rehabilitation authority for such area or areas as may be specified in

the notification and different authorities may be appointed for different areas.

ii. Every slum rehabilitation authority shall consist of a chairman, chief executive officer and

fourteen members, all of whom shall be appointed by the State Government.

iii. The powers, duties and functions of the slum rehabilitation authority shall be-

a) To survey and review exiting position regarding slum areas.

b) To formulate schemes for rehabilitation of slum areas.

c) To get the slum rehabilitation scheme implemented.

d) To do all such other acts and thing as may be necessary for achieving the objects of

rehabilitation of slums. [4]

2.3 Slum-free city plan.

Through a new scheme, “Rajiv Awas Yojana” In pursuance vision of “slum free India” Rajiv

Awas Yojana (RAY) has been launched by the Government of India with the ambitious target of

65




making India slum free in five year, this scheme has an initial budget of Rs.5000 crore and aims to

construct 10 lakh affordable houses in the country. Rajiv Awas Yojana will provide the support to

enable stated to redevelop all existing slum in a holistic and integrated way and to create new

affordable housing stock and envisages a “slum-free-India with inclusive and equitable cities in

which every citizen has access to basic civic and social services and decent shelter, It aims to

achieve this vision by encouraging states to tackle the problem of slums in a definitive manner, by

a multi-pronged approach focusing on bringing all existing slums, notified or non-notified within

the formal system. [5]

2.4 Slum Rehabilitation Scheme of Ichalkaranji Municipal Council.

Ichalkaranji municipal council has undertaken a scheme for slum rehabilitation at Jai Bhim Nagar,

Nehru Nagar, and Renuka Slum under the JNNURM‟s integrated housing and slum development

programme (IHSDP). It was proposed to demolish the existing slum and built a new three storied

RCC Building for 1488 beneficiaries of cost Rs.1868.18 Lack plus infrastructure cost of Rs.

1181.51 Lack (Total cost of scheme of Rs.3049.69 Lack). [6]

3. Methodology Adopted By Ichalaranji Municipal Council For Preparation Of

DPR. i. Appointing consultant for preparation of DPR.

For preparation of DPR including slum identification and location, socio-economic survey,

engineering survey, detailed preparation of proposed dwelling unit, layout, and project cost,

Ichalkaranji Municipal council has appointed private consultant named Mr. Prashant Haval

chartered engineer Kolhapur.

ii.Slum identification & location

A compact area of 75-100 population or above 25-30 households of poorly build congested

tenements in unhygienic environment usually with inadequate infrastructure and lacking of proper

sanitary and drinking water facilities the Ichalkaranji municipal council has identified 16 slums in

city.

iii. Identification of Beneficiaries

After verifying certain documents or records of the actual occupier of a dwelling structure in

existence on or prior to 1 January2000.

iv. Socio-economic survey

To derive definition of urban poor based on the city characteristic and economic parameters with

poverty literacy, education, life expectancy and other factors such as child welfare and to define

the minimum criteria for housing and service for healthy living on the basis of socio –economic

parameter of slums in city were analyzed and finalized the beneficiaries by visiting slum dwellers

through related questionnaires.

v. Engineering survey

To make decision for public private partnership in poverty alleviation programme for housing and

infrastructure to make systematic analysis for existing slum and for future projection.

To make decision for Redevelopment of slum either by relocation, rehabilitation in situ or

combination of both or up gradation of slum, engineering survey is always necessary.

Which Infrastructural component have to be provided is defined by engineering survey.

vi. Preparation of DPR

Detailed project report preparation for administrative approval of Ichalkaranji municipal council.

Including with detail of socio-economic & engineering survey. Drawing of proposed dwelling

units, layout, site plan, details of proposed infrastructure with detailed cost of project and project

descriptions.

4. Slum profile of Ichalkaranji city There are 19 slums in Ichalkaranji city, the total population is around 28171 which is 9.79% of city

population. All the slums are located in residential zone and in largely populated area. The lands

on which all slums are located are town of Government & Ichalkaranji Municipal Council.

The water supply through municipal and drainage facilities is insufficient in these slums. These all

slums are facing many social problems such as child labour, uneducationetc.The peoples living in

these slums are exhibit high rate of diseases due to unsanitary condition. To avoid these critical

67




conditions and to upgrade the living standard of slum dwellers Ichalkaranji municipal council has

undertaken the slum rehabilitation scheme for three major slums in first phase under integrated

housing & slum development programmed (IHSDP).

operation of beneficiaries in getting site clearance by demolishing their existing humanities due

to they are not satisfied with multi-storeyed building, they required individuals single floor

building.

iv. Mentally beneficiaries do not prepare to transit during construction period.

v. Slum dwellers do not believe the scheme will completed in certain period and ensuring equity,
