EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Urban Administration and Development Department (UADD) of Government of Madhya Pradesh

(GoMP) retained ICRA Management Consulting Services Limited (IMaCS) for assistance in the

preparation of City Development Plan for Nasrullahganj town.

The objectives of the exercise are three-fold: a) to assess existing demand-supply gaps in service

delivery and derive a comprehensive infrastructure improvement plan (including a Capital Investment

Plan) required, b) to identify revenue enhancement and financial improvement measures and c) to

develop a Financial and Operating Plan to implement a sustainable infrastructure improvement plan.

City profile and Growth Potential

Nasrullahganj is located in the Sehore District of Madhya Pradesh State. Before the constitution of

Madhya Pradesh as a state, it was ruled by Bhopal Nawabi Town and nearby region has high

Agriculture importance. It stands in the foothills of Vindhyachal range in the middle of Malwa region.

Nasrullahganj town is located at a distance of 73 Km from the district headquarter Sehore. Sehore is

surrounded by seven districts i.e. Bhopal, Raisen, Hoshangabad, Dewas, Shajapur, Raigarh and

Harda. Lying between the north latitude 22º31' to 23º40' and east longitude 76º22' to 78º08', the

district's headquarters is situated at the Sehore city.

Nasrullahganj town lies on the road which connects National Highway 86. It can be reached from

Bhopal through SH-22. It is 92 kms from Bhopal City.

A SWOT Analysis of the town is presented below:

Strengths Weaknesses

The town has high production of Wheat, Pulses

and Soybean with the presence of Krishi Upaj

Mandi of Class „A‟.

Good connectivity via Road and Rail.

Poor Infrastructure system in the town

Opportunities Threats

Agro–based industries would create much needed

employment and boost economy of the town.

Lack of basic infrastructure, giving rise to poor

living conditions, hampering socio-economic

condition of the town.

As of 2011 (Provisional Data – Census 2011), Nasrullahganj has a population of 23,738. Although the

details for 2011 are not available, but referring to Census details of 2001, the work participation rate

was 27% (2001) which was very low as compared to national rate of 39% and state rate of 42.7%.

Currently, the sex ratio of the town is 964, which is far above than national level of sex ratio of 940

and higher than state‟s sex ratio of 887. Literacy rate is 73 % which is very high as compared to

National Literacy Rate of 64.84% and state‟s literacy rate of 63.74%.

Nasrullahganj‟s inhabitants are primarily agriculturalists. Soybean and pulse production is very high

in the region. The total area of the town is 14.88 sq. Town has been delineated into 15 wards.

Observations on Municipal Accounts

CUR: Capital Utilization ratio: Average Capital utilization ratio of Nasrullahganj Nagar

Parishad is 1.10 which is more than 1, indicating that Nasrullagunj‟s capital expenditure is

more than its income. It also means that they are utilizing their revenue income for capital

purposes.

Operating Ratio: The average operating ratio of the Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is 0.64

which is less than 1, indicating that Nasrullagunj‟s revenue expenditure levels are lower than

the revenue income generated. This might also indicate that the revenue income is being

utilized for paying off capital expenditure since capital utilization ratio is more than one in 3

years .

Salaries expenditure to revenue income: If we look at this ratio we can observe that

approximately 34% of the revenue income is utilized for paying the staff employed by Nagar

parishad. After paying off the salary not much revenue income is left to be utilized for other

productive revenue purposes.

Vision for Nasrullahganj Town

To take the town ahead, a vision statement for Nasrullahganj town has been finalized after

consultations with Municipality officials, elected representatives and other stakeholders:

“A sustainable city that provides adequate and equitable access of urban services for all its

citizens along with employment opportunities for everyone”

To achieve the desired vision, Sector goals and detailed strategies have been formulated for 1)

Physical Infrastructure, 2) Social Infrastructure, 3) Economic Development, 4) Environment, 5) Urban

Poor and 6) Urban Governance and Institutional Development.

Action Plans – List of Identified Projects

It is realised that there is significant project level intervention required for Nasrullahganj to provide its

citizens with the desired services. For this, sector strategies have been formulated for the critical

sectors and a list of actual projects for each of the sector has been identified with consultations with

stakeholders of the city. The lists of the sector wise identified projects are:

Water Supply

1. Source Augmentation: Currently, the extraction of water is done through tube wells at various

places with increasing population and economic development there would be more requirement of

water. Thus, there is a need to encourage additional sources of water. This project needs to be

developed completely by 2015. The additional water requirement can be met by adopting either of

the following options:

Drawing additional water from Narmada River.

Sourcing water from the rain water harvesting

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj vii

2. Water treatment facility: As there is no treatment facility available in the town, there is a need to

install treatment infrastructure with a capacity of 5.6 MLD by 2035. By 2015 treatment

infrastructure needs to be developed for 3.68 MLD water.

3. Distribution Network: The proposed water supply scheme includes the construction of additional

24.98 km of distribution network by 2015 and 39.63 km of distribution network by 2035.

4. Elevated Storage Capacity: In future with the increasing demand there would be need to

increase the capacity of elevated reservoirs upto 1.23 MLD by 2015 and 2.19 MLD by 2035.

5. Metering System: 100% properties need to be assessed and water meters need to be installed

in all the properties with water connection, so that revenue income of the Nagar Parishad can be

increased.

Sewerage

DEWAT System: As the population of Nasrullahganj town lives in a very small area, and all areas are

not contiguous and are fragmented, it would be very beneficial for the town (both financially and for

operations & maintenance) to implement Decentralized Waste Water Treatment System (DEWATS)

to dispose of its 5.26 MLD (by 2035) of generated sewage.

Sanitation

Public Convenience Systems: To provide safe and sufficient sanitation facilities to the citizens,

mainly slum dwellers, around 37 more public toilet seats need to be added to the existing

infrastructure in Nasrullahganj by 2035.

Solid Waste Management

1. Collection Infrastructure:

Primary Collection: Augmentation of primary collection involves capacity addition in the area

of equipments used in the waste collection including community bins. As per the demand

assessment, on a priority need, additional 13 handcarts would be needed for short term span

and additional 33 handcarts would be needed for long term span. Also currently, the practice

being followed includes a majority of residents dumping waste outside their houses, or in

drains/ vacant land or at the designated collection point/ dustbin. This results in scattering of

waste which results in poor collection. To achieve an effective waste collection, practice of

door-to-door collection should be initiated which needs to be supported by necessary

awareness generation programmes and capacity building of the staff.

Secondary Collection: Secondary collection involves transportation of waste from collection

points to the disposal site. At present, secondary collection is carried out by 2 tractors. These

tractors are unable to collect the waste from the internal narrow streets. On a priority,

secondary collection system should be strengthened to carry out waste transportation in an

effective manner. All the waste transportation vehicles should be covered to avoid the spilling

of waste. By 2015, 2 more tractors would be required if one tractor is making one trip a day

and by 2035, total 6 tractors would be required.

2. Development and augmentation of the landfill site: The demand-gap assessment reveals the

generation of 12.18 MT of waste in the town by 2035. The current available disposal site has 4.3

acres area which is sufficient till 2035. The collected waste is just dumped at the site without any

treatment or segregation. The dumping site would have to be well-equipped to ensure proper

waste segregation and composting facilities.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj viii

3. Development of Vermi-Compost Plant: It is proposed to dispose the waste generated through

Vermi composting which involves the stabilization of organic solid waste through earthworm

consumption which converts the material into worm castings. The composting and segregation

would help in some revenue generation for Nagar Parishad and it will also reduce waste amount

to be dumped in the landfill site.

Drainage

1. Cleaning / Desilting of existing drains: As an immediate measure, Nagar Parishad should aim

at timely cleaning and maintenance of existing drainage network. Under this project, major natural

drains should be given proper attention as they are flowing in the Nagar Parishad area.

2. Construction of storm water drains: The Nagar Parishad should undertake the construction of

Pucca Open and Pucca closed drains in phased manner. This construction may be done in

tandem to the construction/up-gradation of roads. These construction activities would have to be

carried out on an immediate basis to address the existing and future demand-supply gap. . In

short-term, 3.20 km of new drains need to be developed and addition of 12 km of network needs

to be done beyond 2035.

3. Upgradation of existing drains: The Nagar Parishad is also required to undertake drain up-

gradation works for the existing drains in town. In the short term, 24 km of existing Kutcha open

drains should be upgraded to Pucca open or closed drains.

4. Development of Root Zone Treatment System (RZTS): It is observed that the sewage flowing

through nallahs joins Rivers in untreated condition and creates heavy risk of river pollution. Storm

water can be treated as well with RZTS after removal of settleable substances. It is a low-cost

and maintenance free option that uses the capacity of plants (especially certain reeds – hence

also called reedbed technology) to absorb contaminants and structurally modify them for treating

water.

Traffic and Transportation

1. Road Construction: To address the current gap of per capita road length and the future demand,

the Nagar Parishad new road formation of 8.51 upto 2015, and would need to construct around

16 km of additional road by 2035. The Nagar Parishad should on a priority basis identify the

stretches and areas where roads at present do not exist and or have poor connectivity. Also the

areas where future residential growth is anticipated or planned, road construction can be

undertaken.

2. Road Up gradation: The Nagar Parishad would have to upgrade the internal roads from their

existing type to CC or BT category. The road upgradation may be taken up on the priority basis.

In short-term there is a need to upgrade 15 km of road stretch and beyond 2015 only 0.62 km of

road would be required to upgrade.

3. Signalization and Signage: The arterial road passes through the town connecting National

Highway with many villages. This may increase the flow of vehicles on the road in the future. This

endangers the pedestrians crossing the road. Thus there is need for signalization and proper

signage at few points.

4. Parking Spaces: With the growing number of vehicles and increasing commercial activities in the

town, issue of lack of parking spaces becomes much more relevant. The consultations with

stakeholders have concluded that parking spaces can be developed near the key commercial

area of the town.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj ix

Street Lighting and Fire Fighting

1. Additionn of Streetlights: The Nagar Parishad needs to install a total of 980 street lights by

2015 and 1554 street lights to match the demand of 2035.

2. Energy Saving: Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should replace all the tube lights with CFLs. A

small exercise was conducted to evaluate the benefits of the replacement of tube lights with CFLs

in the town. It was observed that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad would save around Rs. 2.6 lakh

annum in electricity bill.

3. Fire Fighting: Parishad has two fire fighting vehicle. To ensure a safety against the fire, Nagar

Parishad should also undertake the construction of fully equipped fire stations.

Health

1. Primary Health Centre: As per the UDPFI guidelines, the city need bed capacity of 54 by year

2015 and 75 by 2025 and 97 by 2035. At present, city has 50 beds. There are only five doctors.

2. Nursing Home: According to the estimates, a nursing home with bed capacity of 32 is required

for the town in 2035. At present the town lacks a government or private Nursing Home.

3. Dispensary: Currently eight dispensaries are present in the town which is sufficient till 2035.

Education

1. Primary Schools: The overarching goal in this sector is to achieve 100% literacy rate in the city.

Nasrullahganj requires one more number of schools by 2015; by 2035 it would require Nine

primary schools. The infrastructure provision within the schools is in very poor condition and this

has to be upgraded.

2. Senior Secondary Schools: Three Middle schools are present now and Three more would be

required by 2035.

Socio-Cultural Facilities

Currently there is one community hall and one playground. By 2035 there will be requirement of two

more community hall and playground each.

Urban Poor

Interventions needed have to be completed by 2015. These interventions are:

1. Prepare a Slum Free City plan

2. Comprehensive slum mapping and need for housing

Environment

1. Air Quality: Periodic monitoring and review is essential to check air quality. Suitable plantations

or green cover should be provided on major routes to supplement better air quality. This would

partially be addressed by the development of Parks in the town and a massive tree plantation

drive.

2. Water Pollution: Efforts/schemes should be designed to check the diversion of sewage flow into

Nevaj River through appropriately located sewage treatment plants. This aspect would be

addressed by the development and upgradation of Sewerage & Sanitation facilities, Storm water

drainage infrastructure and strengthening of solid waste collection/transportation system.

3. Water Bodies Conservation: For water body conservation and rejuvenation, proper attention

should be given to the local pond. Also river front development needs to be brought in to improve

the situation of the Navej River.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj x

4. Green Spaces: A critical issue that needs to be addressed on the priority basis is the

development of green spaces within the town limits to enhance the overall quality of the

environment.

Economic Development

Development of Small scale industries: Focus should be on the agro-based industries. A land

should be identified either within the municipal limits or near to the city boundary and proposal should

be sent to the appropriate authorities for the same. This would thrust to the employment generation

activities result into the overall up-liftmen of the society. Since, agricultural production of Soy Bean

and Pulses is high in the town and these are exported from here to other towns and state for

processing. Agro-Based Industries based on Pulses and Soya bean should be increased.

Urban Governance

1. Capacity Building: There is a need for training of the existing staff and new staff to increase the

productivity of the work. Workshops and awareness programmes can be conducted.

2. Computerization: Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should initiate the process of computerization in

its administration. Computerization will benefit most of its functions ranging from municipal

accounting to tax management. The introduction of E-Governance will help in smoothening the

processes and improvement in the efficiency.

3. GIS Mapping: A GIS mapping of the city properties will be very helpful in the provision of efficient

services to the citizens. This would also help in keeping a tab on tax evaders.

Capital Investment Plan (CIP) and Priority Projects

Given below is a summary of the CIP for Nasrullahganj town. The CIP has been prepared based on

normative gaps in infrastructure services given existing status and norms for service delivery. Status

Technical assistance requirements

A list of project level / sector specific technical assistance requirements are summarised below:

1. Comprehensive GIS for the town with updated information on all urban assets including roads,

water supply, sanitation etc.

2. Support for digitization of layout records and town planning information

3. Roadmap for 135 LPCD water for the citizens of the town

4. DPR for Traffic and Transportation improvement plan for the town.

5. DPR for solid waste management with focus on scientific disposal and mechanized handling of

waste with private sector participation

Broad Actions to achieve the City Vision and Sector Goals

Nasrullahganj‟s ability to improve on its financial performance hinges primarily on its ability to sustain

and improve on the revenue growth noticeable in recent years. Some of the actions needed in this

regard are:

1. Conduct a zero-base assessment of skill gaps and manpower needs of ULBs to ascertain the

appropriate manpower plan in terms of skill sets and experience/seniority. This is particularly

relevant given the recent developments, specifically in urban planning and GIS, municipal

accounting and systems, e-governance and modern practices in infrastructure service delivery.

2. Address critical operational areas through focused training and capacity building interventions,

particularly in the areas of a) Engineering and project development, b) Accounting and Finance

and c) Use of CAD/GIS applications in Town Planning and Engineering functions.

3. Develop / enforce technical standards with specific applicability to development of municipal

projects.

4. Nasrullahganj can increase its own income by FY ending 2015 through focused interventions in

the following areas.

Property tax: – through revision in ARV, widening assessee base and closer scrutiny.

User charges – through increased penetration of water connections and new sewerage

connections could potentially triple user charges income from the current levels.

Financial Operating Plan and Investment Capacity

Given the existing financial position of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad, the revenue and capital

accounts are projected against the growth scenario and assumptions presented above. The City

Investment Plan (CIP) prepared in the previous chapter shows that the total investment required to

develop Nasrullahganj City is Rs. 32.74 crore at constant prices till 2015 (of the total Rs. 76.24 crore

investment identified for funding till 2035). It includes about Rs. 4.39 crore towards Education and

Health sector, which are not provided by Nagar Parishad. Hence for FOP is generated from the

sustainable investment point of view in line with current growth trends against the identified

investment for Nagar Parishad of Rs. 14.74 crore at constant prices till 2015, which excludes

investment required for Health and Education sector.

Base Investment Capacity

Base Investment Capacity is estimated considering business as usual case, where Nasrullahganj

Nagar Parishad has not taken any grant under UIDSSMT scheme and has not done any reforms to

increase their revenue income. At this scenario Nagar Parishad will be able to sustain only 6.6 % of

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj xii

the total investment identified for year 2015, which is about Rs. 1.74 crore at constant price and Rs.

2.08 crore at current price.

Impact of different scenario’s to assess investment sustainability

With reforms in Property Tax, Water Charges and Sewerage charges

This case assumes the reforms in property tax, Water and Sewerage have been implemented and

accordingly the investment capacity has increased by Rs. 0.79 crore above the base investment

capacity. These reforms will increase the total sustainable capacity to 9.6%.

Reforms and State Grants, without debt Funding

This case assumes that all the reforms suggested above are being implemented and UIDSSMT

grants are also availed. In this scenario Nagar Parishad‟s sustainable capacity will increase to 39.6 %,

which is 30% in addition to scenario 1. Now Nagar Parishad will be able to sustain investment of

about Rs. 10.44 crore at constant price and Rs. 10.48 crore at current price.

Reforms and UIDSSMT grants along with debt Funding

This case assumes that Nagar Parishad can increase their sustainable capacity by taking debt from

any financial institution or private banks in addition to the implementation of reforms suggested above

and grants under with UIDSSMT grants. In this scenario can sustain up to 50.50 % of the total

investment identified, which is 11 % more than without debt funding scenario. Now Nagar Parishad

will be able to sustain investment of about Rs. 13.32 crore at constant price and Rs. 15.91 crore at

current price.

From the above analysis, it is very clear that ULB alone even with the grant support under various

schemes and reforms will not be able to implement 100% of the projects identified under the City

Investment Plan (CIP). But they can substantially increase their sustainable capacity with these

reforms. So, it is recommended that ULB along with the support from UADD, GoMP should try to

develop few projects (like SWM and street light CFL conversion) on PPP model and additional grant

support from GoMP.

It is also recommended that on the same lines of the National Urban Information System (NUIS)

programme for strengthening of information system at Municipal Corporation level, GoMP should also

provide support to all the local bodies in Madhya Pradesh, which are not covered in the mentioned

programme.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 1

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. Background

Madhya Pradesh is urbanizing at a fast rate and the Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) in the state are

facing the challenge of meeting the requirements of the growing population with limited technical and

financial resources. The Government of India (GoI) and Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP)

have initiated a number of programmes to meet the growing demands of infrastructure and service

delivery. These include both GoI schemes [including Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme for

Small and Medium Towns (UIDSSMT) and Integrated Housing and Slum Development Programme

(IHSDP)] and GoMP initiated schemes; such as the Madhya Pradesh Urban Services for the Poor

(MPUSP), a DFID assisted program, which links reform with investment in infrastructure for the poor.

After the assessment of the performance of the ULBs and their capacity for exploiting the above said

resources it was felt that such a plan is essential, not only for accessing GoI/GoMP funding but also

for providing a strategic framework for converging and co-ordinating various development inputs

towards positioning the city on a development path.

Therefore, the Urban Administration and Development Department (UADD) of Government of

Madhya Pradesh (GoMP) has launched an initiative to support 5 Municipal councils, 245 Nagar

Parishads and 30 urban centres in the state in preparing City Development Plans (CDPs). This

initiative aims to provide a comprehensive Medium Term Strategy (25 years) and a City Investment

Plan (CIP) for each Urban Local Body, based on which the concerned ULB will be able to access

funds under schemes of Government of India (GoI) and GoMP as well as from its own sources for

implementation of priority actions and projects, identified from this exercise. The document was also

envisaged to provide a Financial Operating Plan (FOP) to direct the ULBs for mobilising various

financial resources to implement the identified projects, adhering to the JNNURM‟s CDP preparation

toolkit and keeping in view the Master Plan (wherever exists) provisions as prepared by Town and

Country Planning Department. The preparation of the CDP will take advantage of the Revised CDP

preparation toolkit/Heritage cities toolkit prepared under JNNURM and UADD/CMAMP guidelines. It is

also expected that the CDP would provide Urban Reform Action Plan for the ULBs as envisaged

under JNNURM.

In this regard, MPUADD retained ICRA Management Consulting Services Limited (IMaCS) for

assistance in preparation of City Development Plan for Nasrullahganj town.

1.2. Objectives and Scope of Work

This exercise is centred on the following broad objectives:

The CDP will scale up existing urban development and poverty alleviation schemes within a

comprehensive and coherent strategic planning framework in order to ensure optimal benefit

from available resources for the citizens of the ULBs.

The CDP should aim to catalyse new thinking and provoke debate through a consultative

stakeholder driven process. The vision and strategic thrusts of the CDP will be built around

the lessons and findings of a comprehensive and rigorous stakeholder consultation and

documentation process.

The CDP will generate specific priority actions and projects that can be the basis for

mobilizing funding from diverse sources.

1.3. Description of Tasks (as outlined in RFP)

The list of tasks followed for the preparation of the CDP of Nasrullahganj (as outlined by MPUADD)

are detailed below:

1.3.1. Inception

This stage includes a preliminary analysis of the town including strengths and weaknesses of the city

and finalization of the approach and methodology for the preparation of CDP for the town. This stage

also gives an understanding of what impedes service delivery and management within the existing

set-up and what contributes to better service provision. This stage consists of the following tasks:

Reconnaissance

During the first week of the assignment a reconnaissance exercise has been conducted, which

included the following activities:

1. Introductory meetings with the Mayor/President, Municipal Commissioner/Chief Municipal Officer,

Heads of Departments, Councillors, representatives of on-going urban programmes, etc.

2. Determination of the feasibility and composition of a city level Steering Group (comprising of

Citizen forum) for the CDP

3. Formation of Citizen Forum comprising of 15 eminent persons from different walks of life.

4. Obtain base maps, and available secondary data on the city‟s demographics, master plan, reports

prepared under past and current urban development programmes, ULB‟s annual budget reports,

other reports giving status of service delivery, and other relevant documents on heritage listing,

data on slums and urban poor, government policy documents, etc.

5. Identification of the line departments and key stakeholders for urban service delivery and

development such as PHED, Town and Country Planning Department, Development Authority,

SADA, local chamber of commerce, NGOs, CBOs, religious organizations, financial institutions,

commerce and industry etc.

6. Field reconnaissance to determine growth patterns of the city, characteristics of slums and

environmentally sensitive areas etc.

7. Identification of economic opportunities and blocks in tapping these (eg. Tourism, industry etc.)

8. Mapping: Preparation of City level base maps using Auto-CAD/GIS.

Workshop-I: “Kick-off workshop”

A one day kick-off workshop has been organized to familiarize the stakeholders with the purpose,

process, and expected outcomes of the CDP, and build enthusiasm, understanding and commitment

to the CDP. This kick off workshop also helped in deriving a consensus among the stakeholders in

firming the process and agreeing upon a structured programme to take the CDP forward. The

formation of the Steering Group is also announced as along with the key sectors for which detailed

analysis has been carried out.

An indicative list of the stakeholders to be invited for the kick off workshop has been discussed, which

may include:

Elected representatives, Mayor/President, Municipal Commissioner/Chief Municipal Officer

etc.

City level planning and service providing agencies viz., ULB, Town and Country Planning

Department, Development Authority, SADA etc.

Inception report

At the completion of this phase, an inception report consisting of a preliminary analysis of the town

and final approach and methodology for CDP preparation has been submitted to the ULB. Further to

which a presentation on the same report has been undertaken with the stakeholders to seek their

inputs on the approach and methodology suggested in the inception report.

Sector analysis

Based on the interactions with various stakeholder groups (meetings, workshops, focus group

discussions, etc.) and review of relevant documents (publications, reports, GOs, resolutions,

procedures, laws etc.) an analysis of the current situation in all the identified sectors has been

undertaken. This sector analysis has been carried out in the consultation with local counterparts and

further a methodology for the sector analysis has been developed, which includes the following:

Study of economic opportunity and potential for Local/regional economic development, with

special reference to the poor

Physical infrastructure demand and gap assessment (considering service level

benchmarking)

Transport study with emphasis on low cost public transport and livelihoods

Heritage conservation and tourism

Environmental sustainability

Access to housing, employment and social and environmental services by the poor

Health and Education services gap in the town

Sectoral Issues addressed under the Master Plan (as prepared by the TCPD)

City profile

The findings from the sector analysis are used to prepare the City Profile consisting of the

assessment of the existing situation in all identified sectors, emerging issues, SWOT analysis and

projection of the present gaps and future requirements. Development of city vision and sector goals

and strategies

Discussion on strategies, priorities and major actions that may be required in the next five years to

move towards the vision 2035 have been discussed to develop city vision, sector strategies and

strategies.

Sector strategies

After reviewing relevant cases from national and international best practices, learning are identified to

explore if the same can be applied in relevant sectors to bring in improved and efficient ways of

working.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 4

This stages also includes consultations with the local counterparts to develop sector strategies in

consonance with the city vision and sector goals.

Vision, Goal and Strategies

The output expected in the second phase is city vision, sector goals and possible alternate strategies

and some actions and projects.

1.3.2. Development of strategies and priority actions Evaluation of strategies

The strategies are evaluated from the perspective of their contribution to achieving the vision and

sector goals. Criteria for prioritising the strategies, programmes and projects have been developed in

consultations with the Steering Group.

Analyse governance framework and reform action plans

Based on the consultations with the ULB officials, representatives of reform programmes and local

counterparts an examination of the reforms at state and local levels has been carried out to

understand whether these reforms are sufficient to support the vision and strategic plan and to sustain

the planned interventions.

Sector Analysis, Vision, Strategies and Projects Report

The output of this phase is outlining the goals, strategies, priority actions and projects with an

estimate of preliminary funding requirements in each sector.

Workshop-II: “ULB level workshop”

At the completion of this phase a 2nd ULB level workshop has been organized (supported by a

presentation to the stakeholders).

1.3.3. Preparing a City Investment Plan (CIP) and a financing strategy Project costing and determination of funding sources

Consultations with the different stakeholders has determined the types and sources of financing to be

adopted for priority projects from internal resources, state and central governments, local financial

institutions, donors, and through public-private partnerships.

Scheduling of priority actions and developing a City Investment Plan (CIP)

Based on the availability of resources, logical sequencing of actions and potential for immediate

implementation, a City Investment Plan (CIP) has been prepared in consultation with ULB to lays out

the cost and revenue estimates of all priority projects in the next five years. The preparation of the

CIP is a reiterative process requiring adjustments to individual projects as well as changes in

scheduling to make the whole package work financially. The City Investment plan is supported with a

Financial Operating Plan (FOP).

1.3.4. Draft CDP

After feedback from stakeholders a draft CDP for the town including the CIP and FOP will be finalize.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 5

Workshop-III: “Workshop on Draft CDP”

This Draft Report has been presented to the stakeholders of the town in third workshop. The objective

of this workshop was to seek an endorsement of the City Development Plan from the stakeholder

group present and agree on procedures for performance monitoring.

Performance Monitoring

Performance- monitoring/sustainability indicators have been identified to assist ULB in review the

progress and outcomes of the CDP on an annual basis and to enable them in setting the agenda for

the future.

1.3.5. Final CDP document

Further to this, a CDP document has to be finalized after incorporating the feedbacks from the

workshop and the inputs from the 2nd Stage State Level discussion. This document would be given to

ULB, along with a summary of the CDP for publication and wider dissemination by the ULB.

1.4. Approach

The City Development Plan (CDP) is the Nagar Parishad‟s strategy that presents both a vision of a

desired future perspective for the town and the Parishad‟s organization, and mission statements on

how the Nagar Parishad, together with other stakeholders, intends to work towards achieving the

short term and long-term vision. CDP should be very comprehensive and should cover all the aspects

where town needs intervention. To achieve a comprehensive CDP, we have adopted few guiding

principles as discussed below.

1.4.1. Guiding Principle

We outline below the guiding principles underlying our approach for this exercise. These are drawn

based on our experience in working on City Development Strategies/Plans and from the expectations

outlined by MPUADD.

Sharp focus on the need and expected outcomes

We see the CDP as a critical intervention to provide a strategic framework for converging and co-

ordinating various development inputs in a holistic manner to facilitate engaging the town

administration and stakeholders towards crystallising vision, strategy, actions for taking the town on a

development path and as a means to enable access to funds from GoI (Government of India) under

various government schemes / funding programs of GoI and Government of Madhya Pradesh

(GoMP).

JNNURM Toolkit(s) as a guiding framework

As advised by MPUADD, the preparation of the CDP will take advantage of the Revised CDP

preparation toolkit/Heritage cities toolkit prepared by GoI under JNNURM and UADD/CMAMP

guidelines in terms of the structure and process outlined in the toolkit along with integration with

current initiatives for developing a strategic framework for development agenda in the next 25 year

time horizon.

Capture insights from and Build on existing / ongoing initiatives

We would draw on initiatives underway and build on initiatives being undertaken including the overall

spatial planning and policy framework of the existing Master Plan, planning for reform and

participatory slum improvement process put in place under MPUADD, annual plans and proposals in

District Plan for BRGF / Urban Renewal Action Plans.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 6

Enable Participation through a structured Multi-stakeholder Consultative Process

We shall follow a structured consultative process through creation of appropriate institutional

structures (including nomination of a Nodal Officer and the Steering Group as suggested by

MPUADD). We see participation of key stakeholders including elected representatives, staff of Nagar

Parishad, parastatal agencies and other institutions, policy makers and the citizens to participate and

plan for spatial, social and economic development of the town as a critical requirement.

Action orientation and resource mobilization

We also see the CDP as a means to prepare the ground for identification of projects and time-bound

interventions along with evaluation of financial resources requirements, gaps and potential sources for

mobilising funding beyond existing programmes. The scope for private sector development and

participation and access to external resources shall be explored. Further as indicated linkages of

these actions with annual plans and budget cycles of the municipal corporation will also be

incorporated.

1.4.2. Approach and Methodology

With an Aim of developing ownership of the plan amongst the stakeholders, the Nasrullahganj CDP

has been developed in close consultation with all stakeholders. In this way, Nasrullahganj Nagar

Parishad and others are responsible for development of town accountable for their mission

statements, actions and expected outcomes. We have conducted this exercise in 3 Modules as

shown in Exhibit 1-1 and detailed below.

1.4.3. Module I: Inception and Kick off

The expected outcomes of this module from a process stand point include the following:

1. To put in place institutional mechanisms including the formation of Steering Group for conduct of

the assignment in a structured consultative manner as envisaged

2. To engage with stakeholders and arrive at a shared understanding of the objectives and expected

outcomes of the study

3. Apart from this, our team have used this as a preparatory stage to

a. Review and analyse the current status and unique features of the city with regard to the state

of its development, systems and procedures, as equally its institutional and financial context.

b. Identify the strengths and weaknesses in the city‟s development and to develop an

understanding of what impedes infrastructure provision and service delivery and

management within the existing set-up and what contributes to better service provision.

c. Do a rapid assessment through interactions with stakeholders and initial data collection to

capture previous and on-going development initiatives to factor the same in the

Consultations and Analysis module.

The broad activities and tasks outlined under the Inception stage by MPUADD including the following:

1. Introductory meetings with the Mayor/President, Municipal Commissioner/Chief Municipal Officer,

Heads of Departments, Councillors, representatives of on-going urban programmes, etc.

2. Determine feasibility and composition of a city level Steering Group (comprising of Citizen forum)

for the CDP

3. Citizen forum has been formed comprising of 15 eminent persons from different walks of life.

4. Obtain base maps, and available secondary data on the city‟s demographics, master plan, reports

prepared under past and current urban development programmes, ULB‟s annual budget reports,

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 7

other reports giving status of service delivery, and other relevant documents on heritage listing,

data on slums and urban poor, government policy documents, etc.

5. Identify the line departments and key stakeholders for urban service delivery and development

such as PHED, Town and Country Planning Department, Development Authority, SADA, local

chamber of commerce, NGOs, CBOs, religious organizations, financial institutions, commerce

and industry etc.

6. Field reconnaissance to determine growth patterns of the city, characteristics of slums and

environmentally sensitive areas etc.

7. Identify economic opportunities and blocks in tapping these (eg. Tourism, industry etc.)

8. Mapping : Preparation of City level base maps using Auto-CAD/GIS

This module has culminated in conduct of a one-day kick off workshop with stakeholders. The

purpose of the kick-off workshop was to build participative energy and commitment of stakeholders for

the study through articulation of the purpose, process, and expected outcomes of the CDP, and

achieving a shared understanding of the same. The kick off workshop has helped in deriving a

consensus along with the stakeholders firming the process and agreeing upon a structured

programme to take the CDP forward. Further the institutional structures including the Steering Group

for the consultative process has also been spelt out during this workshop. Following the workshop, we

had submitted an Inception Report, which was followed with a presentation to MPUADD and the ULB.

Exhibit 1-1 Approach and Methodology

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 8

1.4.4. Module II: Consultations and Analysis

Module II includes a Situation assessment followed by a) crystallizing a Vision for the City and sector

level goals and strategies and b) evaluation of strategies and finalizing priority actions at a sector

level.

This module starts with the Situation assessment covering Sector level analysis and development of

the Town profile, moving on to formulation of a Vision for the town and translating them into

Strategies, Priority Projects and Reform Actions. While there are self-contained sub-modules within

this step, we have clubbed them into Module II, given the highly consultative as well as data

collection/reconnaissance intensive nature of these steps and the iterative linkages between these

steps.

Given the multiple and heterogeneous set of stakeholders involved, we have use a range of

instruments to capture diverse inputs for the exercise as indicated below:

Workshops – As suggested by MPUADD

Brainstorming Sessions – For discussions with Elected Body, Residential/Trade associations.

One-on-One meetings/interviews – Town officials, Government Departments, Chief Municipal

Officer, Elected representatives, MLA/MPs, and other important opinion makers.

Limited quantitative surveys – To get a pulse of wider perceptions and priorities of the general

public.

In addition, we had a significant on-the-ground interaction effort through our research and support

staff to compile data and information from the cities. From our experience in handling such studies,

very often it is critical to spend substantial time with ULB staff/do sample based field visits given the

data and information availability related limitations. Such interactions enabled us capture qualitative

insights and served in providing surrogate inputs to validate and overcome the generally faced

limitations of data availability. For instance, we have collected budget documents at the beginning at

the study and do the analysis of financials in parallel. A time period wise analysis of revenue and

costs along with their drivers enabled us to spot data discrepancies in the initial stages and helped us

to identify areas where greater time is required for data collection/scrutiny. Similarly in the area of

service levels benchmarking, we have done a physical reconnaissance of municipal assets to validate

reports made available to us.

We concurred the activities and steps identified by MPUADD in the Terms of Reference in moving

from a Situation Assessment to formulate the City Vision and translating that to Sector strategies and

priority projects. Some specifics of our approach along each of these steps are described below:

Sector Analysis

We have chosen the specific sectors/issues for preparing detailed sectoral papers, based on the

criticality of the sector (as viewed by the stakeholders) and the baseline status of the prevailing

service levels in that city. While the exact list of sectors has been finalized during consultations, an

indicative list of sectors that came out as critical areas include the following:

a. Water Supply

b. Sanitation and Sewerage

c. Solid Waste Management

d. Urban Housing

e. Public Transportation

f. Social amenities and infrastructure including Schools, Hospitals, Markets

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 9

g. Heritage & Tourism

The sector level analysis covered the following steps.

a. Review the baseline status of the sector in terms of operational service level and financial

indicators vis-a-vis benchmarks/norms and desired levels of service to arrive at the

normative gaps.

b. Identification of the possible alternatives for improving service levels, policy

changes/implications and the magnitude of investment required to improve service levels in a

time-bound manner.

c. Developing a sector strategy, targets for service level improvement and a list of potential

priority projects to be undertaken along with an expected level of improvement in service

levels through implementation of these projects.

These steps has been undertaken in consultation with local counterparts. While carrying out the

sector level analysis, aspects relating to the need for provisioning for urban poor, broad review of

cost-benefits including social and environmental impacts were factored.

City Profile

In profiling the City and crystallizing its SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat), we looked

at slightly wider issues beyond sectoral dimensions to cover the following:

1. Spatial growth patterns and drivers

2. Economic growth drivers - intrinsic and potential

3. Infrastructure - Physical and Social

4. Issues relating to Environment sustainability

5. Extent of Urban Poor and their requirements

6. Institutional Capacity gaps and requirements.

The city profiles has been drawn from the Sector analysis and assessment of the existing situation in

all the sectors identified, emerging issues, analysis and projection of the present gaps and future

requirements.

City Vision

Exhibit 1-2 presents an extract from the JNNURM Toolkit considered for developing a City‟s Vision

which we believed summarizes the key contours of a City level Vision formulation quite succinctly.

The City Profile has been presented to the stakeholders and Steering Group followed with a

discussion on city perspective and city priorities as perceived by the stakeholders. With the

background of city profile, perspective and priorities, the participants contributed to the development a

collective and shared vision for the city. Discussion were initiated on strategies, priorities and major

actions that may be required in the next fifteen years to move towards the vision.

Exhibit 1-2 Developing a City Vision (Source: JnNURM Toolkit)

Developing a vision for the city is central to the preparation of a CDP. A vision is a statement of where the city wishes to go,

within a given timeframe, and is often expressed in terms of clear expectations. It defines the potential of the city and

reflects its unique attributes in terms of comparative and competitive advantages, values and preferences of the city’s

residents, relationship of the city to the state, national and global economies, and of course, the history and physical

characteristics of the city. A vision aligns stakeholders’ energies to work cohesively for the development of the city. Cities

need to systematically consider the future, and design strategies to accordingly shape the future. All objectives, strategies,

programmes and projects must be aligned with the vision of the city.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 10

Developing a common vision requires a significant effort of consensus building in order to balance the competing demands

arising from different economic infrastructure sectors, as also from different interest groups within the city. In order to

achieve an understanding on a common vision, it is useful to choose “milestones” and targets such as provision of a

minimum level of services to all; public disclosure and transparency in the formulation of budget proposals; introduction of

a single window in matters of service delivery and management and the like. In developing the vision, cities must choose a

set of criteria that are directly relevant to the JNNURM components. It is important that when cities define outcomes and

milestones on the vision, they ensure that these are measurable and have a time frame.

Sector Strategy and Goals

The formulation of key themes underlying the City Vision was a critical part of the exercise along with

the translation of broader vision into specific sector level strategies and goals. In formulating sector

level strategies and actionable goals, it was critical to ensure a link between the strategies and the

desired service level outcomes and consistency with the overall goal.

While the Vision captured a broader perspective of the citizen/stakeholder view on where the city

needs to go, strategies articulate what needs to be done.

For instance, an overall vision to provide universal coverage of water supply to all its citizens may

require strategies to a) Augment water availability, b) Reduce Distribution Losses and c) Differentiated

Tariff with subsidized lifeline supply for cost recovery.

Sector wise service level targets and reform actions

We tied to translate broader sector level goals into tangible service delivery targets and reform

actions, which enabled identification of priority projects that need to be implemented to achieve these

service level targets.

1.4.5. Module III: Finalisation

This module covered translating the consultative and analytical inputs to develop an actionable City

Investment Plan backed by an effective financing strategy leading to formulation of the City

Development Plan.

Preparing the City Investment Plan (CIP) and a Financing Strategy

The CIP and financing strategy are inseparable. An credible and actionable Investment Plan has been

developed based on the analysis of financing capacity and a strategy to overcome the limitations of

the financials of the ULB. We observed that ULB have limited investment capacity to undertake all

capital investment programs. Apart from evaluating the potential financing from schemes like

JNNURM and other capital grant schemes of GoMP, we have also evaluated ULB‟s potential to a)

Improve its Revenue surplus through revenue enhancement related reforms and rationalization of

costs and b) leverage and access to external capital through borrowings and Public Private

Partnerships.

Our approach involved the following steps:

Estimation of unconstrained sector wise Investment requirements given normative gaps in

service levels (5 year, 10 year and 15 year horizons), sector wise service level improvement

targets and identified priority projects for the first five years

Preparation of Financial and Operating Plan and Estimation of borrowing capacity with

operating revenue surplus improvements and revenue reforms

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 11

Developing a realistic and actionable Investment Plan and a Financial and Operating Plan

within borrowing capacity limitations with a 5-year action plan and 15-20 year financial

projections.

Developing 5 year action plan is an iterative process and factored inputs from consultations with

stakeholders on priority projects to be taken up in consonance with the City Vision, Sector wise

strategy and service level targets.

Submission of City Development Plan, Consultations and Finalization

Following the finalization of the CIP, we had integrated the deliverables presented in Module I and II

along with the CIP and financing strategy to prepare and submit the City Development Plan.

Further to this a workshop with stakeholders will be conducted to summarize the process and the

building blocks around which the CDP has been evolved and seek an endorsement from them. We

would also work with the stakeholders to develop procedures for performance monitoring and

implementation of the actions recommended in the CDP.

This would be followed by a presentation to MPUADD and the ULB. Based on the inputs we would

submit the final CDP to MPUADD and the ULB along with a summary of the CDP for publication and

wider dissemination by the NP.

1.5. Stakeholders Interaction

The CDP process involved several stakeholder consultations during the course of the project to make

the process inclusive and CDP comprehensive. The team visited Nasrullahganj in the month of

November and December and had interactions and discussions with the city officials and the political

representatives to get information on the city strengths, existing scenario of infrastructure services,

on-going projects, ULB setup, area of concerns, lacunas etc. And also the demand, gaps, vision,

goals, strategies, priorities, financial situation etc. Apart from individual consultations, three

stakeholder workshops were conducted at different stages of the study with the objectives of

apprising stakeholders with the status of the study and obtaining feedbacks on CDP process and

intermediate findings. The feedbacks from stakeholders were carefully evaluated and incorporated in

the process.

1.5.1. Interacting with Municipal Body

During the first visit to the town, we interacted with the officials of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad,

wherein we discussed the necessity of a CDP for the town and the support that we sought in order to

accomplish the task assigned by the State. We also discussed the approach and methodology for the

assignment and the support that was required from the ULB in terms of data support, city

understanding and conduction of the workshops. In the subsequent meetings the team had a detailed

discussion on the organization structure of the ULB, type & level of service provided by them, financial

aspects of respective services, existing capacity & gaps in various sectors and their perspective &

suggestions on improving the quality of services provided by municipality and data on existing on-

going projects if any. These interactions also included collection of data pertaining to services offered

by ULB. During second visit the detailed demand and gaps were discussed with local body and Nagar

Parishad supported in identifying the potential areas of development and potentials in every sector.

During third visit final investment plans were discussed with local people.

1.5.2. Interaction with other Stakeholders

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 12

Apart from meeting the ULB officials the team has also interacted with other stakeholders mainly

Adhyaksha and the elected ward members and other eminent personalities of the town. Team has

also met with revenue department‟s representative (Patvari), sub-engineer etc.

1.5.3. Formation of Steering Group

Town Level Steering Group is a group of eminent persons of the area who can play a key role in the

successful completion of this study. This group is envisaged to be entrusted with the duty of reviewing

all the reports and primary consultations for all purposes. The following officials/political leaders/other

Section 9: “City Investment Plan”

Section 10: “Financial Operating Plan”

Section 11: “Urban Reforms” outlines the reforms that should to be undertaken by ULB.

1.7. Limitations and Caveats

The limitation faced during the preparation of the city development plan is the unavailability of

complete data, as IMaCS did not conduct any field survey for the data collection, only secondary data

was used which was provided by Nagar Parishad. Since „To the Scale‟ Ward boundary maps are not

available with the town, the digitized maps prepared by IMaCS show the tentative ward and town

boundaries which are marked by the officials of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad and Revenue

Department.

and undeveloped land. The existing municipal area includes both built-up area and agricultural area,

which has been discussed in detail in fifth chapter.

The master plan for the town has not been prepared, thus the town does not have any planning area

for future growth. It has been observed that a large component of the existing municipal area is

undeveloped, thus it creates space for the spatial development of the town.

2.6. Conclusion

This chapter dealt with the physical features of the town which included topography, natural drainage,

climate, and rainfall. It also provided information on its location and connectivity. The next chapter

discusses the demographic profile of the town.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 16

3. DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE OF THE TOWN

3.1. Introduction

Demographic characteristics of a town provides an overview of its population size, composition,

territorial distribution and changes therein. This section on demographic indicators includes indicators

that measure the population size, sex ratio, density and dependency ratio. These indicators for the

region will help in identifying areas that need policy and programmed interventions, setting short and

long-term goals, and deciding priorities, besides understanding them in an integrated structure. Data

in this section has been taken mainly from the “Census of India” and “Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad”.

The demographic characteristics have been analysed in terms of decadal growth and spatial

distribution of density in the town.

As per 2001 census the total population of Nasrullahganj is 17,240 and provisional population for the

year 2011 is 23,738 which shows a decadal growth rate of 38%. Refer Exhibit 3-1. The work

participation rate is 26.7% which is low as compared to national growth rate (39.1%) and state growth

rate (42.7%). Sex ratio is 887 which is also low as compared to the national level (933) and state level

(920). Literacy rate in the town is 73 %, which is higher to National literacy (64.84%) and state literacy

(63.74%).

3.2. Population growth and density

As per the Census of 2011, the population of the town is 23,738 and town is categorized as Class IV

towns. Exhibit 3-1 provides a snapshot of the population growth over the last few decades. The town

has experienced very high population growth rate during 1981-91 at 104%, which was reduced to

decadal growth rate of 17% during 1991-2001 then again increased to 38% in last decade (2001-11).

Population density (P.D.) is calculated as population of the city divided by the municipal area of the

town. It is generally represented in terms of No. per square km (No. /sq. km). The current density of

Nasrullahganj is 2,938.

3.3. Population projection

With a precedence of past and current trends of population growth in Nasrullahganj, an analysis has

been carried out with an objective of estimating population for the next three decades using various

methods which includes Arithmetic increase method, Incremental increase method, Geometric

progression method exponential methods. Result of this analysis is presented in Exhibit 3-2.

Given the fact that decadal population growth rate of the Nasrullahganj town is highly irregular, taking

any of the above method for projection will not yield correct projections, so to project future population

last decade‟s growth rate has been considered for population growth during 2011-21 at a CAGR of

3.25%, then factoring the increase in population density the CAGR of 3% and 2% has been assumed

for 2021-31 and 2031-41 respectively.

3.5. Issues

1. A high population growth rate has caused several problems in the recent times as existing

physical infrastructure and level of service has been restrained by several factors such as lack of

funds, lack of proper planning, etc.

2. Sex ratio is alarmingly low

3. A higher proportion of female among the illiterates indicate lower attention paid to female

education.

3.6. Conclusion

This chapter discussed population growth trend and population density of the town. It was followed by

ward-wise population details and includes population projections for next 25 years. The next chapter

deals with the socio-economic profile of the town.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 19

4. SOCIO ECONOMIC PROFILE OF THE TOWN

4.1. Introduction

Socio-Economic profile of a town provides an overview of its social indicators and economy. The

section on Social Indicators includes Sex Ratio, Literacy Rate and Average Household size. This is

supported by the detailing of occupations of population. The economic profile of a town provides an

understanding of its economic base and trade and commerce activities. These indicators for the

region will help in identifying areas that need policy and programmed interventions, setting near and

far-term goals, and deciding priorities, besides having an integrated development structure. Data in

this section has been taken mainly from the “Census of India” and “Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad”.

The major occupation of the people in

Nasrullahganj is agriculture; hence Krishi Upaj

Mandi (Figure 4.1) is one of the major activity

which accounts for a significant socio economic

activity in the town. The major commodities

exported from the town are Wheat, Pulses and

Soyabean. The Mandi is connected to the nearest

major railway station at a distance of 60 kms in

Hoshangabad (though Budni is the nearest railway

station but it is not a major station, and all the

trains don‟t halt at Budni). The produce from the

Mandi is sent to the nearby cities including Itarsi,

Indore, Obdullaganj, and Mandideep etc. Wheat is

mainly exported to the Maharashtra, Soya is sent

for processing in the Indore plants. Pulses are exported to Indore, Itarsi and Maharashtra. Chana is

not processed in the town as the quantity required is not enough for the functioning of processing

plant. There are six private and two government owned warehouse for the storage. Though the Mandi

is “A” class but as per the officials it‟s smaller in size. Area under Krishi Upaj Mandi is seven acres. It

is seen that average daily dispatch to outside markets during the seasons is 7000 quintals.

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad has an over-all sex ratio of 887 and literacy rate of 73%. Exhibit 4-2

shows Nasrullahganj‟s literacy rate is comparatively higher than that of the state. Turning our attention

to sex ratio, Nasrullahganj‟s overall sex ratio is lower than that of State and National.

Sex-ratio and the literacy rate has been reorganized Exhibit 4-3 to identify the wards having sex-ratio

and Literacy-rate less than town average and more than town average.

Madhya Pradesh‟s sex ratio has increased from 920 in 2001 to 930 in 2011. It is still lower than the

national levels. India‟s sex ratio was 933 in 2001 and has increased to 940 in 2011. If we look at the

sex ratio at district level in last two decades, the encouraging figures are noticeable. The sex ratio has

increased from 898 to 908 and then to 918 in 1991, 2001 and 2011 respectively in Sehore District.

Government of Madhya Pradesh had started some effective schemes and interventions for the

welfare of women which is improving the situation in the state. The schemes that focus on sex-ratio

sensitivity is „Ladli Laxmi Scheme‟, which is handled by Department of Women and Child

Development, Madhya Pradesh for betterment of sex ratio, education and health status of girl child. It

is a very effective scheme which has been playing important role in improving declining sex ratio in

the state.

Literacy rate is one of the most important demographic indicators which sum up the existing literacy

level and capacity to actualize the developmental potential. All the wards are classified in three

different categories as per their existing level of literacy. This Classification is given in Exhibit 4-4.

Exhibit 4-4 Classification of Wards as per their Literacy Rate

Exhibit 4-5 shows the ward-wise literacy rates in the town. It can be seen that most of the peripheral

wards have lower literacy rate whereas the wards in the central area (ward no. 5, 6, 8,9,10 and 11) of

the town have high literacy rates. It can also be seen that the wards having low literacy rate are

mostly the slum wards. In addition, a detailed gendered analysis of literacy has also been carried out

for all the wards of Nasrullahganj town.

The total literate population is 73%. With the initiation of centrally sponsored schemes in Education

such as District Primary Education Programme, Sarv Shiksha Abhiyaan and Education Guarantee

Scheme at school level had contributed in the increased level of literacy in the state in last two

decades; but the most effective scheme had been „Padhana-Badhana‟ Movement for literacy by

Government of Madhya Pradesh, started in 1996-97. As per 53rd round of National Sample Survey

(NSS), it was established that there was nearly 11.8% increase in the rate of literacy of the state from

1991 to 1997, which to some extent was due to Padhana-Badhana Movement. According to

provisional Figures of census 2001 the rate of Literacy had increased 44.20% to 64.11% which

reflected 19.19% increase in literacy rate within a decade. Other schemes which attributed to

increasing literacy rate in last two decades includes upgradation of Madarsa‟s scheme, „Free of cost

Distribution scheme of text books‟, „Book –Bank Scheme‟, „ Free of Cost School Uniform Scheme‟,

etc.

4.2.2. Average household size

Average Household size acts as a key factor in estimation of development programmes. Exhibit below

presents the Average Household size for year 2011 and 2001.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 22

4.2.3. Workforce participation (Primary, Secondary and Tertiary occupation and income levels)

Work is defined as participation in any economically productive activity with or without compensation,

wages or profit. Such participation may be physical and/or mental in nature. Work involves not only

actual work but also includes effective supervision and direction of work. It even includes part time

help or unpaid work on farm, family enterprise or in any other economic activity. All persons engaged

in 'work' as defined above are workers. As per “Census of India,” Workers have been classified as

Main workers, Marginal workers and Non workers depending on duration of their work months.

Main Workers: Those workers who had worked for the major part of the reference period (i.e. 6

months or more).

Marginal Workers: Those workers who had not worked for the major point of the reference period

(i.e. less than 6 months) are termed as Marginal Workers.

As a sub-classification, “Main and Marginal Workers” are again classified on the basis of nature of

work performed; Cultivators, Agricultural Labours, Household Industry Labours and Other Workers.

Cultivators: A person is classified as cultivator if he or she is engaged in cultivation of land owned or

held from Government or held from private persons or institutions for payment in money, kind or

share. Cultivation includes effective supervision or direction in cultivation.

Agricultural Labours: A person who works on another person's land for wages in money or kind or

share is regarded as an agricultural labourer. (S)he has no risk in the cultivation, but merely works on

another person's land for wages. An agricultural labourer has no right of lease or contract on land on

which (s) he works.

Household Industry: Household Industry is defined as an industry conducted by one or more

members of the household at home or within the village in rural areas and only within the precincts of

the house where the household lives in urban areas.

Other Workers: This includes all government servants, municipal employees, teachers, factory

workers, plantation workers, those engaged in trade, commerce, business, transport banking, mining,

construction, political or social work, priests, entertainment artists, etc.

The details of the workforce for 2001 have been shown in Exhibit below. The details of the workforce

for 2011 are in the process of conduction in the towns.

Workforce Participation Rate (WFPR) 27

Source – Census of India, 2001

The workforce participation rate of the town is very low (27%). There is a need to provide employment

opportunities and reduce dependent population in the town.

4.3. Economic Base

4.3.1. Industrial activities

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 23

The population of the town is not involved in industrial activities. It does not have any big industry to

boost the economy of the town.

4.3.2. Trade and commerce

The town acts as a trading centre and commercial market for Agricultural produces. This place is

known for one of the highest Soybean productions in the region as well as in Madhya Pradesh. The

major crops grown over here are Wheat, Chana and Soybean. Nasrullahganj town serves as a

regional wholesale crop market centre (Krishi Upaj Mandi) and is an A-Class Mandi of the state. Total

area of the Mandi is 25 acre. 2010-11 exports from the Mandi of Wheat, Chana and Soya bean were

68,835 tonnes 18,345 tonnes and 57,188 tonnes respectively. Wheat is exported to the Maharashtra,

Soya bean is exported to the Obdullaganj, Mandideep and Indore plants. Chana is exported to Indore,

Itarsi and Maharashtra for processing. A Gud Mandi and a Sabji Mandi is located in the ward No. 10.

4.4. Issues

A significant number of male and female illiterates are a serious issue which impedes the

overall development of the city. This can be attributed to less awareness, poverty and lack of

sufficient accessible education.

A high percentage of non-workers suggest that a significant proportion of population remains

unemployed for a substantial part of the year. This needs to be address for realise economic

upliftment of the society at large.

Nasrullahganj‟s economy is highly depending on agriculture. Whereas this potential can

further be actualized, this dependence is also a possible threat to the Nasrullahganj‟s

economy. To achieve a sustainable growth rate, a more diversified economic base is of

utmost importance.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 24

5. SPATIAL PLANNING AND GROWTH MANAGEMENT

5.1. Spatial growth trends

The origin of town is older than Independence. The town is named after the name of the Nawab

Nasrullah Khan. He was an expert hunter and was one of the few hunters in India who had achieved

the distinction of becoming „Nausherwan‟ – a hunter who bags nine tigers in a 24-hours span. He did

hunting in surrounding forest areas of present day Nasrullahganj. State Highway 22 known as Indore-

Bhopal road, passes through the town. The growth of the town is largely along the state highway. The

older settlement are mainly on the southern part of the town. But over the period of time, the intensive

development has been observed along the state highway in an unplanned manner.

5.2. Spatial distribution of population

The town‟s old areas (i.e. in Ward four and three) are more dense and populated. A close look at the

Nasrullahganj‟s map reveals (Refer Map-4B enclosed in Annexure 4) that the central region has

comparatively higher population densities. Detail of population density is given in Exhibit 5-1 central

areas have high density (above 200 PPH), whereas other parts of the town has density lesser than 50

pph.

As discussed above Agriculture accounts for 73% of the total land in town and the developed land is

only 24.5%, which consists of 14% of residential use, while institutional, commercial and roads

accounts for 4, 3.5 and 3% respectively. The broad tentative land use of the town has been

represented in Map-5 enclosed in Annexure 4. The broad land use pattern shows that, institutional

area is located along state highway. Residential area is divided in the two parts, one in North –

Western part and other in the south-eastern part of the town.

5.4. Housing scenario

Housing is a very critical component of city‟s development. Some of critical aspects of Housing in any

city consists of the number of households, average household size, type of building and provision of

basic services e.g. water supply, electricity, sewerage, drainage, solid waste disposal etc. To analyse

the housing scenario of the city, factors such as density of residential areas, household size, nature of

built form and housing shortage have been considered.

5.4.1. Present and future Housing demand

At present the town has 4,652 households. Many houses in the town are in dilapidated condition.

Some are kutcha in nature, so these all houses are also needed to be taken care of for future

improvement. In 2036, minimum of 894 houses would be needed to support the population of the

town. Exhibit 5-3 future total need of houses.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 26

5.4.2. Illegal colonies

The development of unauthorised colonies has been observed in the town. Agricultural cultivators are

sub-dividing their agricultural land and selling them for construction of houses. Since there are no

permissions from the local body to commence this construction and change the use of the land, the

basic facilities and urban services are negligible in these areas leading to degraded condition of the

colonies. This phenomenon is increasing over the period of time along state highway.

5.4.3. Future growth possibilities

At present, Nasrullahganj faces a number of problems with water being the most scarce resource

which the citizens are deprived of. Apart from problems related to Road infrastructure, Water Supply,

Sewerage & Sanitation, Drainage, Solid Waste Management, Health and Education, Nasrullahganj

Nagar Parishad faces the problem of slums in the town. The town has suffered the insufficient

employment opportunities. It had expended along state highway.

As the population grows in the town it is expected that the process of sub-divisions and selling plots

would increase due to rising land values, and more residential development would take place in

peripheral part of the town. These areas are good for habitation but it needs support of infrastructure

for good quality of life.

Map-4B enclosed in Annexure 4 clearly depicts wards with lower population densities. The wards,

with lower densities, offer some possible locations for future development in the town. A critical

observation reveals that growth could also be directed to the low density wards, namely Ward No. 15,

1, 7, 4, 10 and 13. acts a site for potential future development.

5.5. Issues

1. The population densities in internal wards, which are in the core area are substantially high and

are near to the permissible limits as prescribed in the UDPFI guidelines as compared to other

wards. Initiatives should be taken to decongest these wards in order to reduce infrastructural

pressure from the overcrowded wards.

2. The haphazard development and formulation of illegal colonies in the town has increased and

leads to degraded quality of life. There is a need to prepare a master plan for regulated land

development and proper management and development of the town.

5.6. Conclusion

This chapter dealt with the spatial growth trend and how did Nasrullahganj expanded into the town it

is now. The ward maps and land use pattern and housing scenario have also been discussed in

detail. The chapter ended with a brief note about the growth possibilities and city specific strategies

and action plan.

6. CITY’S INFRASTRUCTURE – EXISTING STATUS, GAPS, ISSUES, SWOT, GOALS AND STRATEGIES

The chapter deals with the current status of various components of city infrastructure and services

provided by the Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. Various sectors/services have been analysed in

accordance with the methodology mentioned earlier. Sectors / Services identified for the analysis

include: Water Supply, Sewerage & Sanitation, Solid Waste Management, Drainage, Traffic &

Transportation, Street Lighting & Fire Fighting, Urban Poor and their Accessibility to Basic Services,

Social Infrastructure, Environment and Existing Institutional Framework for Development. Sector-wise

analysis is presented in subsequent sub-sections. Demand-Supply Gap Analysis for various sectors

has been done for short, medium and long term, i.e. 5 years, 15 years and 25 years.

6.1. Water supply

Water Supply facility in the town is provided by Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad which undertakes

sourcing, establishing networks, maintenance and collection of user charges for domestic as well as

commercial purposes.

6.1.1. Source, Supply, Distribution Systems and Treatment Facilities

Nasrullahganj lies in Narmada basin and tube wells have been drilled with the yield of 450 lph to 500

lph fitted with submersible pumps. In Nasrullahganj, the available water supply statistics show that

average yield from various sources for water which is supplied to the town is about 1.42 MLD, which

translates into about 60 lpcd availability for the citizens. Narmada River is proposed to be used for

augmentation of existing system i.e. for supply of additional 5.6 MLD raw water situated 6 kms

(approx.) from Nasrullahganj in the south eastern direction.

Main source of water supply in Nasrullahganj town is through ground water. The water from 17 tube

wells is pumped to two over-head tanks of capacity of 2.7 lakhs and 2.3 lakhs litres and one sump

well with the capacity of 0.5 lakhs litres. The overhead tanks are filled once in a day whereas sump

well is filled four times in a day. Consequentially, the capacity of all the reservoirs in a day is 0.7 MLD.

There is no treatment facility or filtration plant in the town at present. The town has eleven hand

pumps, fourteen tube wells and four wells, which are under private ownership. Location of different

sources of water is provided in Exhibit 6-1. (Refer Map 8A in annexure 4).

Water Supply from tube wells in longer time may become a problem in this area, as the ground water

level has gone down up-to 300 ft below the ground and the water supply at present is much below the

prescribed standards and with the increase in population would result into increase in demand for

water. The quality of ground water in the district has been assessed by central ground water board by

analyzing ground water samples in the district. From the samples it is observed that PH values of all

water samples ranges from 7.27 to 8.07, which shows alkaline nature of the water in the district.

Nitrate level in Sehore district varies from 5.6 to 358 mg/l. The excessive concentration of nitrate

levels may be due to localized pollution or percolation of fertilizers used for agriculture. The hardness

of ground water in the district has been found safe. No arsenic content has been detected in the

ground water of the district. But as the Sehore district‟s ground water has iron and fluorine, usage of

ground water needs to be reassessed for safe drinking (Water Aid, 2005, Water and Sanitation in

Madhya Pradesh).

In India, water supply projects are usually designed keeping 20 Hours per day pumping & treatment

infrastructure‟s „live‟ availability; however, the efficacy of the entire system is disadvantaged when

continuous power is not available at various stages of pumping/treatment. Another statistics on power

availability reveal that average per day power availability is for about 8 hours. A perspective look into

the above available information would reveal that power cut acts as a major impediment in the

provision of ample amount of per capita water availability in the town vis-a-vis existing infrastructure

available. Thus, in the proposed strategy, in order to utilize the designed infrastructure at its optimum

efficiency, and while tackling the power availability impediment, it would be worthwhile to have a direct

power feeder for the proposed treatment plant and pump house.

6.1.2. Connections and User Charges

At present there are 1,205 domestic connections and 18 non-domestic connections. Existing water

tariff is Rs.40 per month for domestic and Rs.75 per month for non- domestic as shown table below.

Source: IMaCS Analysis

It is evident from the Exhibit 6-4 that Nasrullahganj needs a major revamping in “Water Supply” sector

as current level of service, 60 lpcd, is substantially lower than the prescribed norm of 135 lpcd. The

huge gap in the water supply area at the end of year 2015 well underscores the above point. By the

end of year 2035, Nasrullahganj city would require 6.58 MLD of water for daily consumption. No

treatment of water happens in the town. In the area of Elevated Storage Capacity, Nasrullahganj city,

at present, as per the UDPFI standards there is a gap of 0.41 ML in short term and additional 0.50 ML

in long term will have to be addressed. An additional of 24.98 kms, 31.7 and 39.63 kms will be

required in the area of distribution network by the year 2015, 2025 and 2035 respectively.

6.1.4. Water supply projects

Under the UIDSSMT scheme, a new water supply system for Nasrullahganj based on Narmada River

is designed for water demands of the year 2040. The new scheme is designed for enhanced per

capita supply of 135 litres per day as per CPHEEO guidelines. As per this scheme, water requirement

for the population of Nasrullahganj for the year 2040 shall be 5.6 MLD. The scheme considers

construction of intake works at Narmada River, 5.6 MLD conventional water treatment plant, pumping

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 30

mains, 2 new overhead reservoirs and distribution system in the town. The new scheme is approved

and the works are under construction.

6.1.5. SWOT analysis

Strengths Opportunities

Water Sources in the reachable distance.

With the completion of ongoing project, gaps

assessed in the various will be addressed.

People are well aware of the need to adopt

best practices.

Metered connections could bring

accountability in the water consumption and

can also increase the revenue of the Nagar

Parishad.

Service Levels could be improved by

augmenting daily supply of water and storage

capacity.

Water quality can be improved by increasing

the water treatment capacity.

Possibility of Private Participation can be

explored to address the capacity constraints

of Municipal Corporation.

Rationalization of water charges.

Weaknesses Threats

Current Service levels of water supply are

lower than level desired under the UDPFI

guidelines.

Lack of adequate water treatment capacity.

Unmetered water connections.

Poor collection efficiency of water tariffs.

Excessive exploitation of Ground Water by

Tube-wells could have long term implications

on the Environment

Failure of timely completion of ongoing

“Nasrullahganj Water Supply Scheme” could

lead to the worsening of the situation.

Failure to extend the distribution network to

the uncovered parts of the city can have

serious socio-economic impacts

6.1.6. Issues 1. A substantial part of population receives untreated water as the treatment facility does not exist

for the supplied water;

2. Critical shortage of water during summer season due to lowering of water level in the

Nasrullahganj;

3. Dependence on Hand-pumps and wells for daily water supply;

4. Complete absence of metering system and

5. Upstream pollution of River.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 31

6.2. Sewerage

As envisaged in the 12th schedule of 74th

Amendment to the Constitution of India,

responsibility of providing services pertaining to

sewerage within the city limits lie with the ULBs.

The same responsibility is with Nasrullahganj

Nagar Parishad.

6.2.1. Existing sewerage system

Currently there is no sewerage system existing in

Nasrullahganj. The sewage from the households

flows gets mixed into road side storm water drains

that flows in main nallahs and rivers. In the

absence of sewerage system, people depend upon individual septic tanks.

6.2.2. Means of sewage disposal

The sewage from households and other commercial establishments gets mixed into road side storm

water drains that flow in main nallahs and rivers. It is found that the sewage flows into various nallahs

or accumulates into the low lying areas creating unhygienic living conditions for the local residents. In

the absence of sewerage system, people depend upon individual septic tanks.

6.2.3. Household toilets (Dry Latrines and Flush latrines)

Out of 4,652 households, approximately 82 % have individual toilets. In this 16% have pit latrines and

rest have toilets with septic tanks. As already discussed there is no sewerage system in Nasrullahganj

and therefore, wastewater from septic tanks is generally left out in open drains or in a nearby nallah

except in few cases where soak pits are used to dispose the wastewater.

6.2.4. Open defecation

The household level survey conducted by AIILSG (All India Institute of local self-Government) in 2008

reveals that approximately 13% population – mostly from economic weaker sections and living in

slums and newly developing areas resort to open defecation due to lack of individual or community

sanitation facilities in their area. The baseline survey indicated that such population exists in almost in

all municipal wards in varying degree but it is more in Wards no 1, 13 and 15 followed by wards 4 and

2. Incidentally, these wards also represent higher proportion of population staying on rental basis in

these wards which may not have access to individual toilets in their homes.

Large proportion of children also defecates in open. It is a common practice to dispose infants‟

excreta in open. Baseline survey indicated that over 12% of households reported that children

defecate in open fields and over 17% of the households throw infant‟s excreta in open field in unsafe

manner. Overall situation causes unhygienic conditions in the city area and also poses risks for

spread of diseases through flies and ground water contamination.

6.2.5. Maintenance of septic tanks

Septage from septic tanks and pit latrines is collected by the Nagar Parishad using two suction

tractors available with them and disposed-off in the landfill site used for dumping solid waste from the

city. Rs 1000 per cleaning are charged within the Nagar Parishad limits for individual households.

Septic tanks are cleaned once in a year based on the request from households. Generally, about only

Figure 6-1 Sewage from the households

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 32

2-3% of the septic tanks are cleaned per year as per the baseline survey. This indicates that many of

the households do not clean their septic tanks on annual basis but may be on bi-annual or tri-annual

basis.

6.2.6. Present and Future Demand and Supply Gaps

The Exhibit 6-5 presents the existing situation, future demand and the gap which needs to be filled.

As presently there is no sewerage system, thus there is no population covered by underground

drainage, whereas the desired level is 100%. As at present the sewer network is missing in the town,

the length of the sewer network required by year 2035 is around 41.97 km. As there is no network,

there is no waste water treatment plant, thus unchecked disposal of wastewater in natural drains

causes significant harm to the environment.

As shown in above Exhibit Nasrullahganj would require a sewerage system to cater the population of

year 2035. According to norms mentioned under the UDPFI, the sewerage system would need to

cover 90% of the road length during year 2035. A comprehensive sewerage system needs an

integrated treatment plant which can be developed in a phased manner. A treatment plant with an

initial capacity of 2.94 MLD should be developed to cater to the requirements of 2035 at 5.26 MLD.

6.2.7. Sewerage projects

Sewerage Project “Providing and laying of sewer network of Nasrullahganj” for a design period of 30

years, till 2038 is in pipeline. Proposed project will enable municipal Parishad to collect the sewerage

and storm water and carry it other suitable place for providing desired treatment before the waste

water being finally disposed-off to river or rushed for any other purposes. Project includes providing

and laying of sewer network within town, providing of pumping facility if necessary for cleansing

facility along with treatment facility. Total network length will be 20,280 m. Two stabilisation ponds for

4 MLD capacities will be constructed.

6.2.8. SWOT analysis Strengths Opportunities

Project of “Providing and laying of sewerage

System of Nasrullahganj” is already in

pipeline.

Increased awareness among the stakeholders

for the improvement of sanitation facilities.

Tertiary treatment of the sewage water and

re-using for the municipal purposes can be

explored.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 33

Weaknesses Threats

Lack of maintenance and absence of timely

cleaning of free public conveniences renders

them unusable for significant amount of time.

Improper usage of public conveniences would

leave these facilities unusable and would

require more maintenance.

Wastewater from Houses and overflow from

the individual septic tanks mix with storm

water drainage system resulting in water

pollution.

6.2.9. Issues

Many of the households do not clean their septic tanks on annual basis but on bi-annual or tri-

annual basis because of high cost

Lack of space availability, affordability, dense housing structures, and rental accommodation

affects the construction of toilets and septic tanks.

Absence of UGD system: All the wards are to be covered with UGD system. The disposal of

sewage through either open drainage or septic tanks is leading to the pollution of ground

water and surface water. An integrated UG system covering the entire town is critical, given

the expected growth of the town.

Treatment: Sewage water flowing through open drains without any treatment is the major

cause of concern regarding surface water pollution. Thus, it poses a potential health hazard

for the citizens.

Uncovered Population: While the absence of UGD itself exposes the entire town population to

the hazards of unsanitary conditions, almost complete population of the town remains

uncovered by safe sanitary disposal systems.

Need for greater coverage and better maintenance of Public conveniences: Absence of UGD

itself exposes the entire town to the hazards of unsanitary conditions.

Poor coverage, overflows and blockages of Storm water drains: With the growth in population

of the town, the poor coverage of road networks by storm water drains without adequate

linkages to main channels requires immediate attention. The drains also face the overflow

and blockage problems due to the plastic waste thrown in the drains.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 34

6.3. Sanitation

Like sewerage, in the 12th schedule of 74th Amendment to the Constitution of India the responsibility

of providing services pertaining to sanitation within the city limits lie with the ULBs.

6.3.1. Private toilets

As per the survey 82% households have individual toilets. Amongst all the wards ward 1, 13, 3 and 2

has low percentage of households having individual toilet.

6.3.2. Community toilets

There are three public toilets in the town: one at the Nasrullahganj bus stand, one at Sehore Naka

and third one at Bajrang Colony. Out of these, the toilet at Bajrang Colony is now abandoned and not

in use.

Both the toilets at Nasrullahganj bus stand and Sehore Naka are maintained by Sulabh Souchalaya

on pay and use basis. The toilet at bus stand has facility of 12 seats, 6 for gents and 6 for ladies.

Users are charged Rs. 3 per use for both men and women. Tourists and few local residents use the

toilet facility. The public toilet is at Sehore Naka with 7 seats for men and 3 for women. Men are

charged Rs 3 and women are charged Rs. 2 per use. This toilet facility is mostly used by tourists and

truck drivers. There is bathing facility also available for which users are charged Rs. 5.

6.3.3. Present and Future Demand and Supply Gaps

Public toilets are also short at an existing per seat 102 people, against 60 people as standard. The

exhibit also provides a snapshot of comparative analysis of existing level of service with level of

service desired under the Urban Development Plans Formulation & Implementation (UDPFI)

guidelines. By year 2035 public convenience having 37 seats would be required as shown in the

6.3.4. Sanitation projects

The task for preparing City Sanitation Plan for Nasrullahganj is part of the initiative of Government of

Madhya Pradesh to implement the National Urban Sanitation Policy in the State. The preparation of

this plan is a joint effort of Government of Madhya Pradesh, UN-Habitat, Nasrullahganj Nagar

Parishad and AIILSG. Funding support has been provided by UN-Habitat for preparation of this plan.

The aim is to achieve sanitation infrastructure development along with developing awareness in the

community and encourages public private partnerships in the sector.

6.3.5. SWOT Analysis

Strengths Opportunities

The public toilets with pay and use model

exists and are being run with the private

sector involvement.

Provision of better services to slum and

floating population by improving the sanitation

facilities of the city.

PPP mode can be utilized for the

improvement of sanitation facilities of the city.

Weaknesses Threats

The use of public toilets is considerably low

probably due to the user charges.

Public places, being heavily crowded and not

having any kind of sanitation facilities

showcase filthy and unhygienic environment,

especially on the days when weekly bazzars

are conducted on Thursday.

6.3.6. Issues

The public toilets with pay and use model exists and are being run with the private sector

involvement. However, the use of these toilets is considerably low probably due to the user

charges. Further, such public toilets are not generally accessed by children –on account of

user fees as well as non-child friendly designs of such toilets.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 36

Non-availability of municipal water supply in the vicinity has also affected the use of individual

toilets.

Overall availability of public toilets in the city is inadequate as the crowded areas like market

place like Royal market and JP market and commercial establishments mainly observed in

ward no. 10 and 12 are still lacking such facilities. The existing market place brings in

considerable floating population from the surrounding region which does not have any kind of

sanitation facility. Women, especially, get suffered severely due to absence of such facilities.

Such public places, in turn being heavily crowded, showcase filthy and unhygienic

environment, especially on the days when weekly bazzars are conducted on Thursday.

The city does not have sufficient facilities of sanitation at the public places. There is need to

provide sanitation facilities at the market places (Royal market, J.P.market and Chhota bazzar

and major commercial establishment along Indore road. (SH-22).

Public level sanitation facilities for women are grossly lacking in the city.

approximately 13% population – resort to open defecation due to lack of individual or

community sanitation facilities in their area

6.4. Solid waste management

Waste is the unwanted material left over from places of human and animal habitation. Solid waste

comprises unwanted and discarded materials from houses, street sweeping, and commercial and

industrial operations. Increase in urban population and changing life styles lead to the generation of

solid waste.

Generally, solid waste is heterogeneous in nature and a mixture of vegetables, food items, paper,

plastics, rags, glass etc. If solid waste is disposed-off in open areas without any treatment, it will

cause a negative impact on the environment and ground water.

6.4.1. Generation, Collection, Transportation and disposal of Solid Waste

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is responsible for all kinds of collection i.e. primary, secondary and

tertiary which include street sweeping, collection, transportation and disposal of all solid wastes

generated in the town. The total Solid waste generated is 5.93 tones approximately per day.

There is no door to door collection in the town. The town has 14 collection points. The collection

frequency is once daily. The identified trenching ground admeasures 4.3 acres and is at a distance of

one km from the town. Solid waste management exists in the town and needs to be improved upon.

There are two tractors and two trolleys to transport the waste from collection points to trenching

ground. Total number of small hand carts is fifteen.

The current practices of the solid waste management shows that there is no primary collection of the

waste, but there is primary level and secondary level storage of waste. There is no segregation of

wastes at source or at the disposal point. There is no processing or reusing or recycling of this waste

at present in the town.

6.4.3. SWOT analysis Strengths Opportunities

Awareness among stakeholders to improve

the SWM infrastructure of the City (DPR has

already been prepared for same).

Availability of land for proper waste disposal.

A sound foundation for effective SWMS is

already in place.

Existing infrastructure can be utilized in an

effective manner.

Private participation could be explored for

revenue generation and best usage of waste

Potential for income generation through

processing of solid waste.

Weaknesses Threats

No Door-to Door Collection.

Inadequate primary and secondary collection

infrastructure.

Lack of safety measures for the workers.

Proximity of disposal sites to the residential

areas gives rise to several health related

problems.

Failure of maintenance of extra capacity can

result in loss of capacity.

Negligence from citizens can prove all efforts

of Nagar Parishad futile.

Health hazards for the people due to

insufficient collection and open incineration.

Lack of safety procedures while handling the

waste is a potential health hazard.

6.4.4. Issues

No Segregation Practice at Source;

Lack of proper Primary Collection System – There is no door-to-door collection system

established in the city;

Secondary Storage of waste is unorganized: Mostly open dumps are available for secondary

storage of solid waste;

Transportation of solid waste to the Trenching ground in open vehicles;

No Separate collection and disposal of construction waste;

Lack of proper management of biomedical waste;

Manual handling of solid waste: Lack of safety measures and

Lack of awareness among the town residents.

6.5. Drainage

Currently, there is no separate storm water management system in Nasrullahganj but the storm water

is carried away in drains constructed for sullage water.

6.5.1. Existing drainage system

The length of drains in Nasrullahganj is

approximately 35 kms. The current drainage

system covers about 30% of the city roads.

There are no drains in ward no. 1, 4, 5 and

15. There are three major nallahas flowing

across the city which are being used to

dispose storm as well as sullage water

collected through the drains (Refer Map-7

enclosed in annexure 4). These nallahas are

Seval Pani Nala of 3.5 Kms, Muslim-Mohalla

Kisan Colony Nala of 3 Kms and Colar

Colony Nala of 1.5 Kms. These all natural

drains carry waste water from houses, which comes from storm water drains in the town. Existing

drains are also used to carry sewage from septic tanks which leads to blockage of drains and the

nallahs.

6.5.3. SWOT analysis

Strengths Opportunities

Presence of a strong network of natural

drains.

Sound network coverage of man-made

drains.

Development of an integrated Drainage Network.

Strengthening of natural drains.

Up-gradation of existing system to fully Pucca

system.

Weaknesses Threats

High percentage of Kutcha drains.

Encroachments of natural drains.

Mixing of Waste water and Storm Water.

Improper and untimely de-silting of natural drains

can weaken the city‟s drainage system.

Negligent practices by citizens towards disposal

of Waste water and dumping of Solid waste into

Storm water drains.

6.5.4. Issues

Lack of drainage network system in the city which would collect convey and dispose the storm

water efficiently.

City is vulnerable to stagnation of water due to lack of an integrated drainage system and

proper disposal mechanism of storm water.

Lack of design considerations and absence topographical analysis results in choking of

existing drains and frequent incidences of water logging. Clogging of existing drains due to

negligent practices of some of the citizens related to the dumping of waste in the drains.

Field surveys and public consultations have revealed that that the silting of natural drains is a

major problem and leads to the improper disposal of storm water which often leads to the

overflowing of storm water.

Encroachment on the open drains is a major cause of concern.

6.6. Traffic and transportation

This section reviews the existing situation in terms of their current level of service, coverage and key

issues towards services provided by Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is

the primary agency responsible for the construction of new roads within the municipal limits. Its role

with regard to road infrastructure in the town includes the construction and maintenance of all roads in

its jurisdiction, except the roads belonging to the Public Works Department (State Highway) or

National highways. The construction of internal roads, in the case of a private colony development is

the responsibility of the developer or individuals who are selling the land after sub-divisions of their

plots. However it has to verify the adequacy of proposals in these areas, at the time of sanction.

6.6.1. Existing traffic and transportation scenario

The Nagar Parishad‟s area is spread over 15 wards. The State Highway connecting Indore and

Bhopal is the spine of all road networks in the town. The old core area is on the South-West part of

the road whereas the new developed area is on the North-East part of the state highway. All major

roads start and end at state highway. The town is also connected with Sehore via road in the North.

The general street pattern is observed to be narrow with width varies from 6 m to the major arterial

roads to 3 m internal roads, with 1 to 1.5 meter wide earthen roads. The road density comes out to be

1.5 per persons in the town. The total length of the roads in the town is equivalent to 35.5 kms. The

town‟s main spine is state highway, along which the town has started growing now. It is acting as

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 41

main road for all institutional and commercial activities. The length of the state highway in the Nagar

Parishad is almost around 4 kms. There are

also few roads under PWD which connects

other villages to the town. Total road length

under PWD is about 1.5 Kms.

Due to rapid development in economic and

commercial activities, there has been an

increase in traffic plying on the state

highway. Also, due to absence of the

bypass road, the state highway remains

busy in the day time and the area around

Mandi and Bus Stand gets congested some

times (Refer Map-6 enclosed in annexure 4). As this traffic is just related to state highway, it does not

affect the roads under Nagar Parishad but as town is growing the increasing traffic flowing through the

town will create many problems in future. So, there would be a need for an alternative to reduce

through traffic from the town after 25 years.

6.6.2. Travel characteristics

While the preferred mode of travel (motorized) in the town is Two-Wheeler, the predominant number

of short trips undertaken in the city is understood to be pedestrian in nature. The major flow of traffic

is on the state highway, which comprises of trucks/ tractors and four wheelers. Other than this, private

buses, jeeps act as inter-city transport. Total number of estimated vehicles is approximately 15,00.

(Total number of vehicles in the urban areas in Sehore district is 2,48,371 as per RTO, Sehore) The

number of two-wheelers is very high in the town as compared to number of four-wheelers. In the

internal streets, people travel in the two-wheelers only, as the streets are very narrow.

6.6.3. Parking – Current arrangements and requirements

Presently, there are no separate places for parking four wheelers or two-wheelers near commercial

areas and weekly markets. Though the parking of trucks for Mandi is within the Mandi area and the

Bus stand has sufficient capacity at present. The requirement for the parking is near the market areas

only in the future.

6.6.5. SWOT analysis Strengths Opportunities

Passage of state highway connecting Bhopal

and Indore in the town

Strict regulations over the polluting vehicles to

mitigate the health risk faced by citizens.

Introduction of Public Transport by Nagar

Parishad for future could be revenue

generative source.

Weaknesses Threats

Huge gap in the existing level of service of

roads.

Several incidences of encroachments have

reduced the effective width of town internal

roads.

Severe traffic jams due to narrow roads.

Parallel parking on the internal roads causing

problems.

Unregulated growth of encroachments.

Accidents.

Increase in the flow of through traffic due to

widening of state highway.

6.6.6. Issues Road Infrastructure: Internal town roads are very narrow, thus are very inconvenient for

vehicular movement. With the demand estimations it is evident that there is a high

requirement of the concrete and black top roads in the town for proper movement of vehicles

and people.

Encroachments along the roads: Presence of informal activities along the road margins

illegal encroachments of pedestrian areas and internal roads are the other causes for traffic

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 43

congestion in the town. There is considerable commercial activity on the main centre road in

the town.

State Highway as a barrier or as a source of economic development: It is anticipated that

the traffic flow will increase on this road as it connects to Bhopal to Industrial city Indore. Also

town has regional Mandi, Bus Stand etc, thus it may as a stoppage place for traffic. This will

help the town to raise the economic activities along the highway, acting as a boon for the

town. But it has been observed that the schools and few other institutional buildings are

present on the western part of the state highway. So, state highway will act as a barrier for

children and working people who need to cross the road from residential areas to their work

areas. So there would be a need to have foot over bridges or grade separators or by-pass as

a long term strategy.

6.7. Street lighting and Fire fighting

6.7.1. Existing situation of Street lights and Fire Services

Nasrullahganj has a decent coverage of the roads with street lights. Presently, the town has 430

street lights. These street lights have been placed at many important places and streets in the town.

The various types of street lights includes Tube lights, Sodium vapour lamps ranging from 70 watt to

150 watt and High mast lamps Details of street lighting are given in Exhibit 6-13.

The present condition of street lights is not very good in the town as the average spacing between

lamp poles is more than the desired as visible in exhibit above. Also, by replacing 150 existing tube

lights with T-5 (28 W) and 275 High Power lamps with CFL (4X36) ULB can save energy of 61228.75

KWh and energy cost saving of Rs 2.6 lakhs per year

6.7.3. SWOT analysis

Exhibit 6-15 SWOT Analysis: Street lighting and fire services Strengths Opportunities

A diversified base of Street Lighting

infrastructure

High power lamps can be replaced by CFL‟s to

reduce the electricity consumption as

percentage of high power lamps is very high in

the town.

New installations can be supported by

underground cabling to improve the skyline of

the city and to avoid electricity theft.

Weaknesses Threats

Lack of vigilance resulting illegal domestic and

commercial connections from street lights.

Lack of maintenance can degrade the existing

infrastructure.

Illegal connections would result high

percentage of power bills to the Nagar Parishad

and can crumble down the complete system.

6.7.4. Issues

At present a proportion of the street lights comprise of tube lights and halogen lamps which

consumes lot of electricity, there is a need to replace these lamps with CFLs. This would help

cut down on expenses on longer term.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 45

Presently, the cabling for lampposts is not underground. Due to this the cases of illegal

connections and theft are observed. Thus, there is a need to have underground cabling to

avoid such cases.

6.8. Urban poor and their accessibility to basic Services

6.8.1. Poverty in the town

Rising levels of urban poverty is becoming a crucial issue in the increasing urbanization. In an

environment where the people are exploited and ignored rather than supported, there is an urgent

need to develop the living standards of this section of people by providing basic services such as

water supply, health, education, sanitation, legal protection, employment etc.

Absolute poverty as per the general definition, i.e. not enough to eat, is not prevalent in the city,

except amongst a small section of people living in the slums; these people lack even housing and

other amenities and can be categorized as urban poor.

Various estimates of poverty in Nasrullahganj have converged to between 16% and 25% of the urban

population. Apart from this, the town also has a population of pavement dwellers or homeless

population, who are among the poorest in the town, but there is no available estimate of the size of

this population.

6.8.2. Slums in the town

A total of nearly 2,236 persons (Detailed Project report, IHSDP, 2008) in Nasrullahganj have been

identified as those living in slum which is equivalent to 16 % of the total population, while State‟s

average is 15.16%. The Nagar Parishad of Nasrullahganj has identified five slum pockets in the town

(Refer Map-10 in annexure 4). The ward wise slum population of Nasrullahganj has been shown in

Exhibit 6-16.

identified slums in the town. There are 15 wards in the town and ward no. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 13 and

14 has slum.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 46

General characteristics of slum

Slums in Nasrullahganj are in miserable and unhealthy living conditions. Mostly the houses are in

Kutcha state and have shabby structures. The absence of development works like roads, sewer,

water line and proper sanitation in most of the slum areas. Community facilities and social

infrastructure is also missing in the slum pockets. Average built-up area of a unit slum is

approximately 20 sq. m.

6.8.3. Urban basic services in slums (In line with JNNURM‟s 7 point charter)

Access to basic services is now deemed as a criterion for identification of the poor and poor areas in

a city (essentially slums). The responsibility for service provision in an adequate manner lies with the

local body, which becomes a difficult job for increasing urban poor population. The basic services

which are needed to be provided under seven point charter includes security of tenure at affordable

prices, improved housing, water supply, sanitation and ensuring convergence of existing universal

services for education, health and social security. Slums within the town do not have adequate

infrastructure facilities. Exhibit 6-17 gives the coverage of existing infrastructure in the slums.

The detailed study under IHSDP shows that majority of slum dwellers live in temporary shelters and

most of the houses are entirely made of make shift materials such as wood, bamboo and

plastic/tarpaulin sheets. Most of the slum residents obtain their water from well or bore well, or from

Nagar Parishad‟s piped supply system. Some bore wells are fitted with individual hand pumps for

local supply, others are fitted with electrically operated submersible pump which pumps water to an

overhead tank from which it is distributed through distribution pipes to a number of stand posts. The

current sanitation alternatives in some of the slum areas of Nasrullahganj comprise an individual pour-

flush latrine. If residents do not have access to one of these sanitation facilities, then the common

practice is defecation in an open space or along a drainage nallah. Solid waste management in the

slums is handled in the same manner as in the rest of the areas by the local body. As a result of open

defecation, lack of drainage system along the roads and improper sanitation facilities, unhygienic

conditions prevails over there. Other facilities are also lacking in the slums in the town.

6.8.4. Social security schemes and beneficiaries and other schemes

At present, some programmes are going on for poverty reduction/ slum improvement in the town.

These include programmes for provision of infrastructure/ shelter and programmes for slum

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 47

improvement/ provision of basic urban services. The Integrated Housing and Slum Development

Programme, is a step towards strengthening of housing and infrastructure projects in the interests of

the urban poor. This programme is also under implementation in the town. The detailed project report

for understanding the existing conditions and suggesting strategies was put forward in 2008. The

project cost is equivalent to Rs. 3.79 crores. The proposed components under IHSDP are:

Housing

Looking at the scarcity of pucca housing in the slum pockets, it has been proposed to construct 228

dwelling units. It was suggested that the land, if obtained after the proper planning of houses, will be

used for commercial use and the revenue generated from this would be used for operation and

maintenance.

Water

It is proposed to improve the water supply system in slums by laying water supply pipe lines.

Sanitation

Need of proper sanitation system and construction of drains as per need.

Roads

The new roads and existing kutcha roads will require entirely new construction.

Social Amenities

It has been proposed to provide Anganwadi for the slums. Other than this, the town has sufficient

educational and health facilities which cater to the slums also.

Financial Arrangement

The town of Nasrullahganj has been included in the IHSDP scheme under the JnNURM. The sharing

of funds would be in the ratio of 80:20 between central government and state Government/ULB.

6.8.5. Present and future Housing demand

Based on the IHSDP detailed report, it has been assumed that 75% of the Slum houses need major

renovation work or rehabilitation work. Hence, a Housing demand has been estimated considering the

above assumption. Total number of housing demand in 2015 would be 437.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 48

6.8.6. SWOT analysis

In the slums, the level of service for various services is similar to that in the rest of the city. SWOT

analysis of services in the slums would be similar to the individual SWOT analysis carried out under

the sections various sections this chapter.

6.8.7. Issues

Higher proportion of Slum Population: The town has 5 slums, one slum in each ward. The

slum population is about 16 per cent of the total population. These slums are spread all over

the town. This dense concentration of slum dwellers along such environmentally and

developmentally sensitive locations has only resulted in the complete lack of access to basic

services, causing unhygienic living conditions.

Land ownership: Slums have encroached private or government land and reside over these

areas. Many slum dwellers do not have tenure security for their land and house.

Lack of awareness on slum development programs: There is a general paucity of awareness

of the various slum development schemes and programs announced from time to time by the

central and state governments. This leads to long delays in the implementation of the

programmes and overall dissatisfying results, apart from the factor of the benefits of the

programs not reaching the intended beneficiaries.

6.9. Social infrastructure

The social infrastructure has been classified into Health, Education and Recreational infrastructure.

The geographical locations of various components of Social Infrastructure are shown in Map-9

enclosed in annexure 4. The facilities shown in figure include schools, colleges, administrative office,

railway station, bus stand/terminal, police station, hospital, religious buildings, and military ground. It

can be easily seen that most of these services are present either on the state highway or on the main

connecting road inside the core area. The concentration of these facilities along the major roads

improves their connectivity.

6.9.1. Health Infrastructure

The town has one general health centre, which has 50 beds capacity. At present, in emergency and

serious situation the cases are referred further to Sehore and Bhopal hospitals. This hospital caters to

surrounding villages also. There are eight dispensaries, but no nursing home . Other than this there

are 13 clinic and pathologies in the town.

The existing service levels in education sector show a good status. Existing schools are sufficient in

number. The existing schools taken into consideration are just government schools. The problem

faced in the education sector is the lack of basic facilities in the schools.

6.9.3. Recreational facilities (Parks, Playgrounds etc)

The town has one community hall, one sub-complex, one neighbourhood park named after Dr.

Ambedkar Park, one children‟s park, one passenger waiting hall as Immovable property under the

Nagar Parishad. The town has one playground, which is also used for celebrating Dussera.

6.9.4. SWOT analysis Exhibit 6-22 SWOT Analysis: Social Infrastructure

Strengths Opportunities

Good service level of educational institutions

in the town.

Substantial awareness for the improvement of

these facilities.

Development of new health facilities

supported by an upgradation/ improvement of

existing health facilities will help in an overall

development of the area.

Weaknesses Threats

Lack of boundaries to the schools.

Lack of Intermediate hospitals and Poly-

Clinics.

Lack of integrated schools and schools for

handicapped.

Quality of physical infrastructure of this

Sector demands major revamping.

Lack of maintenance can degrade the existing

infrastructure.

Lack of boundaries to the schools could result

in encroachments.

Poor connectivity to the schools could result

of accidents.

6.9.5. Issues

Existing level of service in the health infrastructure demands a major revamping as these fall

among factors which would guide future development of the area.

Government Hospital which receives maximum number of patients from the town and nearby

areas suffers from lack of infrastructure and poor maintenance of buildings and other assets;

also it requires the permanent doctors, at present the doctor‟s travel from other towns to

Nasrullahganj.

A continuous flow of funds needs to be ensured for development of new infrastructure and up-

gradation of existing infrastructure.

Most of the schools of the town lack necessary infrastructure and hence, initiatives should be

taken in equipping existing educational institutions with necessary infrastructure.

6.10. Environment

A town‟s environment is dependent on several factors which impact air quality, water quality, land

quality, noise levels, etc. Each of these aspects gets affected by individual factors or a combination of

two or more factors. Some of these factors are: Shortcomings in Solid Waste Collection, Under-

developed Storm Water Drainage system, Undeveloped Waste water disposal system, Dust and

particulate matters from vehicular traffic and industries, etc.

6.10.1. Pollution levels (Air, Water and Soil)

Due to incomplete collection of waste sometimes leads to scattering of waste which ultimately find its

way to drains, open lands and other sources of water. This leads to the pollution of land by improper

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 51

disposal of harmful waste, ground water pollution by leachate and surface water pollution by mixing of

waste with water. In addition to these, solid waste clogging the drains leads to stagnation of water

which ultimately leads to the unhygienic milieu.

Under-developed drainage network and undeveloped waste water conveyance system leads to the

stagnation of storm water and waste water in various parts of the city leading to unhygienic conditions

which poses severe threat to the health of the citizens.

It is anticipated that vehicular traffic on state highway will increase over the up-coming years, it will

become a constant source of dust and other particulate matters which pollutes urban space and

causes various kinds of respiratory problems to the citizens.

6.10.2. City green spaces (gardens and recreation – total coverage ratio)

The city has no dedicated Green Spaces. Tree Plantation could be found along the few roads. As per

UDPFI guidelines the recreational area should be around 8 to 10 per cent of the town‟s developed

area, which is not there at present. As per the guidelines there should be 10 to 12 sq.m of green

space per person. 31.5 ha of the green space requirement has been estimated to be added by 2036,

as per the guidelines.

6.10.3. Water front development and conservation

There is a Nallah in the town under the jurisdiction of Nagar Parishad. It bisects the town by passing

in North-South direction. It ends up in river Narmada. Project of Nallah Channelisation and site

development is going on. The total project cost is Rs 787 lakh. The project includes construction of

retaining walls, construction of R.C.C nala, steel hand rail and plantation of protection with tree guard.

This project will help in beautification and conservation.

6.10.4. Existing environmental regulations

Various aspects of regulating the environment are covered under various Legislations. Most important

of these are provided below:

Policies 1. The National Water Policy, 1990

2. Indian National Policy Statement for Abatement of Pollution, 1992

6.10.5. SWOT analysis

Exhibit 6-23 SWOT Analysis: Environment Strengths Opportunities

Lower composition of harmful waste.

Awareness among the citizens towards the

need of better environment and more green

spaces.

Development of infrastructure related to the

handling of solid waste, waste water and

storm water can improve the city‟s

environment.

Conservation of Ground water.

Weaknesses Threats

Less land for green areas and other

environment improvement works.

Almost extinct pond and sole dependence on

ground water leading to depletion of ground

water table

Failure to integrate the issue of urban

environment with infrastructure development

projects.

Failure to conserve pond and ground water

table can have severe impact on the town‟s

environment.

6.10.6. Issues 1. Leakages in Solid Waste Collection System leading to water and land pollution.

2. Clogging of drains and poor waste water handling system leading to threatening environmental

situation.

3. Lack of adequate green cover in the city.

4. Open defecation.

6.11. Heritage, Conservation and Tourism

Nasrullahganj is a very old town but it does not have any building or built-form of historical

importance. So, at present there is no heritage conservation or built conservation.

Famous Salkanpur temple is just 20 kms from the town. The temple is situated on an 800-ft high

hillock. The temple here is of Ma Durga Beejasan, an incarnation of Goddess Durga.

Salkanpur Temple is in Sehore district near Budni (formally known as 'Buuddha Nivasini'). The temple

have more than 1000 stairs and road is also available to reach the top at temple. About four and half

kilometre Cement Concrete Road facilitate the pilgrims to drive up to the top. Thousands of devotees

come here and climbs up these stairs to get the darshan of Durga Maa.

6.11.1. Issues

Neglect faced by this area leading to underdeveloped infrastructure.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 53

6.12. Existing Institutional Structure for development

6.12.1. Urban Local body structure

The local body works on the principle of constitutional dichotomy of its two sides i.e. elected body and

executive wings. The legislative wing is headed by a President (Adhyaksha) and the overall

functioning of the local body is governed by a Council. The Executive wing is headed by the Chief

Municipal Officer (CMO) and is responsible for all the management and executive functions and

assists elected members in decision making process.

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is the main governing body which operates within the municipal limits

of Nasrullahganj town. It is responsible for the provision of basic infrastructure services to the citizens.

This includes development and operation & maintenance of infrastructure like Water Supply, Solid

Waste Management, Transportation, etc. Most of the Nagar Parishad‟s responsibilities and duties are

governed by MP Municipalities Act. Apart from the provision of basic services, under its purview, to

the citizens, it also coordinates with other departments such as UADD, TCPD, MPHB, Dept. of School

Education, Dept. of Health Education, MPSEB, MPPCB, etc. Nagar Parishad‟s responsibilities include

coordination with other departments in formulating their plans for municipal area and assist them in

the implementation of their plans and schemes. Nagar Parishad translates its responsibilities into

service delivery by means of various sub departments such as General Administration, Water Supply,

Sanitation, Solid Waste Management, Street Lighting, Fire Fighting, Roads, Drainage, Revenue,

Taxation, etc.

The Nagar Parishad is headed by a Chief Municipal Officer, who is appointed by UADD and is

entrusted with the responsibility of all municipal affairs. The elected council headed by Adhyaksha,

leads elected body of 15 elected members from 15 administrative wards. Overall, the executive wing

of the Nagar Parishad has 107 staff. The institutional structure of the Nagar Parishad is visible in

Exhibit 6-24.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 54

6.12.2. Town and Country planning department

The activities of Town and Country Planning Department (TCPD) are guided by the provisions of the

Madhya Pradesh Nagar Tatha Nivesh Niyam, 1973 (the Rules). The Rules provide for the

appointment of a Director to head this department. There are other officers like Additional Director,

Joint Director, Deputy Director and Assistant Director of TCPD to assist him.

The State Government, as per provisions of the Rules declares a region including major urban areas

and its surrounding settlements as a planning area, and orders the preparation of a development plan

for the region. Presently, no development plan has been prepared by TCPD for Nasrullahganj town.

6.12.3. Public health engineering department

The main responsibility of providing water supply and sanitation services remains with PHED in rural

areas. As Nasrullahganj is in transition from rural to urban, the co-ordination of Nasrullahganj Nagar

Parishad with PHED becomes very important to find new potential sources etc.

6.12.4. Madhya Pradesh housing board

Madhya Pradesh Housing Board (MPHB) falls under the administrative and functional control of the

Housing and Environment Department of GoMP. The operations of the Board are governed by the

provisions of the Madhya Pradesh Housing Board Act, 1972, and rules formulated therein, amended

from time to time. The key functions of MPHB, as per its governing Act and rules include; to acquire

land from the Government, private parties and/or other departments for construction of properties; to

design, plan, construct, supervise and sell residential flats and commercial complexes; to undertake

deposit works for Government departments like Education; Welfare, Tribal Welfare Departments, etc.

for construction of schools, hostels, etc.; and to undertake repair and reconstruction work of old

structures.

6.12.5. Madhya Pradesh pollution control board

Implementation, supervision and monitoring activities pertaining to Central Pollution Control Acts and

Rules vests with the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), Government of India, and the respective

State Pollution Control Boards formed/constituted under its rules. Madhya Pradesh State Pollution

Control Board (MPPCB) headquartered in the state capital, Bhopal, carries out its operations through

seven regional offices, each located at the divisional headquarters.

The main function of the regional offices is to monitor the implementation of provisions of various Acts

governing pollution control and prevention and the Rules framed under such Acts. The pollution

prevention and control Acts include:

The Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1974;

The Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Cess Act 1977;

The Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1981;

The Environment (Protection) Act, 1986; and

The Public Liability Insurance Act 1991.

MPPCB is also responsible for implementation of the Municipal Solid Waste (Management and

Handling) Rules, 2000 of CPCB, which spell out responsibilities of the state pollution control boards

and the urban local bodies. MPPCB is the monitoring authority with respect to ground water, ambient

air, and compost quality in urban areas. The Board is also required to monitor processing and

disposal facilities for municipal waste, with the approval of the State Urban Development Department,

Town and Country Planning Department, and Ground Water Board. According to the Rules, the ULB

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 55

is responsible for implementation of the provisions and infrastructure development for collection,

storage, segregation, transport and processing of solid waste in the town. The major areas of concern

of MPPCB with regards to ULB functions are:

Management of solid and liquid waste disposal;

Waste water management;

Improvement of roads and plantation of trees;

Traffic management to control vehicular pollution; and

Proper planning of the city.

6.12.6. Issues

Though roles of different organizations in the provisioning of urban services are clearly

defined, plans formulated by different organizations suffer because of lack of coordination

among various organizations.

Since Nasrullahganj is in transition phase and the large proportion of area under its

jurisdiction is agriculture, various departments who involved in provision of services to rural

areas are still in the process of transferring the roles and responsibilities to respective

departments.

In case of street lighting, responsibility of installation of electricity poles and their electrification

lies with MPSEB. Any failure in the coordination between Nagar Parishad and MPSEB results

in poor urban governance.

MPPCB should be regularly contacted to keep a check on urban environment and curb

pollution.

Nagar Parishad should maintain a healthy interaction for effective and comprehensive city

planning.

Meetings at regular intervals should be organized between various governing organizations

for effective urban governance.

municipal fiscal status. The revenue account comprises of two components - revenue income and

revenue expenditure.

7.2.1. Revenue income

57% of the total revenue income comes from

assigned revenue while if we look at the

composition of assigned revenue octroi and

passenger tax is the major source of revenue

while the second biggest source of revenue is

from Non-tax revenue accounting for 19% (refer

Exhibit 7-2).

We will deal with each of the source of revenue in detail in the following section.

7.2.2. Own Sources

Own source revenue includes tax and non-tax revenue. Our own source of income has grown at a

CAGR of 37.94% while having a share of 25.57%

Tax Revenue

Tax revenue comprises of property tax, integrated tax, education cess, export tax, advertisement tax

and other taxes. We can see that property tax and integrated tax constitute more than 50% of the Tax

Revenue except for 2010-11 where export tax has contributed about 40% of the tax revenue (Exhibit

7-3).

Key Observation:

The share of export tax has increased considerably over the last 4 years from around 5% in FY 2007-

08 to approx. 40% in FY 2010-11. If this trend continues then we can expect the share of tax revenue

to total revenue to increase from 6 % to double figures in the coming years and dependence on

external funds would be reduced.

Non Tax Revenue

Non Tax revenue was one of the major source of revenue from own sources which accounted for

19.41% of the total revenue income. Non tax revenue consists of rental income from municipal

properties, water charges, license and fees, development charges, building permission etc.

We can observe that other non-tax revenue except listed in the table below accounts for the

maximum share of non-tax revenue in all the four years . Others consists of income from water taxes ,

charges for water tankers etc.

While rental income from municipal properties happens to be the second highest among the non-tax

revenue source .

income generated. This might also indicate that the revenue income is being utilized for paying off

capital expenditure since capital utilization ratio is more than one in 3 years .

Capital Utilization ratio: Average Capital utilization ratio of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is 1.10

which is more than 1, indicating that Nasrullagunj‟s capital expenditure is more than it‟s income . It

also means that they are utilizing their revenue income for capital purposes . This kind of capital

expenditure is good for the Nagar Parishad in the long term and will accrue benefits to the people

residing in the village .

Salaries expenditure to revenue income: approximately 34% of the revenue income is utilized for

paying the staff employed by Nagar Parishad.

7.5. Issues

Capital Utilization ratio is more than one, indicating that expenditure is more than the capital

income. This indicates shortage of capital funds under various schemes.

Tax revenue accounts for only 6.16 % of the total income, which is very less. There seems to

be a need for rationalization of different types of taxes.

7.6. Conclusion

This chapter dealt with the analysis of municipal finance and the financial health of Nasrullahganj

Nagar Parishad. The next chapter deals with City Vision, Sector Goals, Strategies, Action Plan,

Projects and Prioritization.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 62

8. CITY VISION, SECTOR GOALS, STRATEGIES, ACTION PLAN, PROJECTS AND PRIORITIZATION

The vision for Nasrullahganj was formulated by stakeholders and IMaCS through a consensus

approach and continued consultations with the community. The consultations revolved around the

city‟s strengths, current issues, concerns, problems and the areas that need to be focused on to

achieve the desired results.

8.1. Formulation of City Vision

After completing a rapid assessment of the city‟s infrastructure, physical and environmental aspects,

and institutional and financial status, a consultative process was started with Nasrullahganj Nagar

Parishad.

The “City Vision and Sector Goals” workshop was held to explain the purpose of the CDP, the

ownership of the plan, and the need for establishing or strengthening partnerships to leverage Nagar

Parishad‟s role in facilitating economic growth and improving quality of life. The officials of other

government departments such as Health, Education, etc who have a stake in the development of the

city were also involved in this workshop. This workshop focused on highlighting the current status of

all the services provided by various Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad departments and the key issues

confronting each department.

The consultations held so far were concluded with a visioning workshop with stakeholders. Nagar

Parishad officials and other stakeholders together carried out the visioning exercise at this workshop.

The workshop started with a plenary session in which the current status and gaps in various services

were presented to the stakeholders. It was followed by the mission statements and the perceived

needs of the stakeholders. The comparison also served to identify additional priorities not mentioned

by the Nagar Parishad officials as well as discrepancies between the services provided by Nagar

Parishad and the stakeholders‟ perception of such services.

The Presentation by IMaCS team was followed by a questionnaire survey which aimed at eliciting

stakeholders‟ perception of city, city‟s infrastructure, major issues and where they want their city to be

in the future. This was followed by the ward-wise detailing of ward-specific problems and potentials

that can be harnessed for the development of ward and city.

8.1.1. Vision for the Town

For developing a vision for Nasrullahganj, IMaCS team presented three vision statements for the town

based on the discussions with various stakeholders individually.

After having discussions with stakeholders during the workshop and consultations with Nagar

Parishad officials, the vision for Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad emerged as follows:

“A sustainable city that provides adequate and equitable access of urban services for all its citizens

along with employment opportunities for everyone”

In addition to the outlining of a vision for the city, discussions were also carried out on the

identification of major themes which would serve as the watchwords for initiatives and actions to

achieve the vision. Some of the major themes that came out of workshop and consultations with

stakeholders are as follows:

1. The city should attain a key position in small scale and Agro-based industries.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 63

2. City should be clean and beautiful with employment opportunity for everyone including women.

3. Industries both small and large scale should be encouraged in town so that employment

opportunity can be developed.

4. Promote education, health institutions and a safe environment for the citizens. There should be

good supply of water in the town.

8.1.2. Mission Statements

To achieve the vision, certain Mission Statements are formulated on the basis of identified themes

which would be the various lines on which development should be concentrated. Based on

consultations with stakeholders and review of development plans of other cities, following Mission

Statements are being adopted to achieve the vision.

1. To provide citizens of Nasrullahganj with sustainable and basic infrastructure facilities.

All basic infrastructure facilities, viz. Water Supply, Sewerage & Sanitation, Storm Water Drainage,

Solid Waste Management, Roads & Transportation and Street Lighting & Fire Fighting, and social

infrastructure facilities, viz. Health and Education, should be developed / upgraded to support the

economic and social development of the city.

2. To actualize the city’s existing economic potential and generate new opportunities for the

prosperity in all sections of the community.

An economic development plan should be devised for the harnessing of city‟s economic potential. It

should concentrate on the diversification of economic base of the city so as to reduce dependence on

any particular factor.

3. To develop & promote special economic activity and training centres for women.

Special training centres should be developed for women so that all the women can get trained in

various economic activities irrespective of their literacy level. Special community based economic

activities should be designed such as handicraft activities, household food products etc so that every

women should be part of gainful economic activity.

4. To uplift the urban poor and bring them at par with other sections of the community.

A comprehensive upliftment plan, comprising of employment generation, provisioning of basic

infrastructure and equal access to social infrastructure, for urban poor should be prepared to address

the existing disparity among the various sections of the community.

5. Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building.

Preparation of an institutional action plan defines roles and responsibilities of various stakeholder

agencies. It would also target at the capacity of various stakeholder agencies in terms of adequacy of

staff and competitiveness for an efficient delivery. The issue of “Motivation to work” should be an

integral part of this plan.

6. Preparation of Resource Mobilization Plan.

Preparation of a financial and operating plan that addresses the resource requirement for

implementation and maintenance of the “City Development Plan” and “Master Plan” proposals.

7. Development of New areas through Town Planning Schemes.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 64

Development of new areas should be undertaken through implementation of Town Planning

Schemes. Detailed development plan has to be prepared for the selected new areas with the

guidance of master plan /land use plan for the city.

8. Conserve Nasrullahganj Environment

Conservation of major Nallah and the natural environment of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. These

Mission Statements would serve the purposes of aligning/initiating development works with the

formulated vision, guidance during the policy formulations to achieve the goal and framework for the

coordination among the various stakeholder agencies.

8.2. Sector Goals, Strategies, Action Plan and Projects

8.2.1. Water supply Sector Goals

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals

Unlike the approach adopted for sectors such as roads, SWM etc, the planning for water supply

source augmentation has been done considering the demand arising in year 2035. The systems and

infrastructure would therefore have to be designed such that the long term needs are addressed and

planned for by 2025. Therefore, the broad strategy would be to identify the projects addressing the

future demand and plan for the necessary. In addition to the improvements in infrastructure, the

stakeholders have also suggested that the municipal manpower dealing exclusively with the water

supply should be strengthened. Table given below lists the broad strategies required to achieve the

given targets in water sector.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 65

Broad Strategies required to achieve the target:

1. Augmentation of water supply

2. Minimize water losses in transmission and distribution and enhance overall management of

distribution

3. Promotion of efficiency in service delivery and strengthening of cost recovery mechanisms

4. Conservation of Rain Water

5. Improving Efficiency, Accountability and Transparency in the system

6. Exploring possibility of Private sector participation to contract out the O&M part of the project

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals

The lack of a sewerage network in town necessitates the development of a sewerage network which

would efficiently manage the existing and future demand. Similar to planning and designing for water

supply network, the planning for development of sewerage network would have to consider the

demand arising in 2035 and make necessary provisions for the same by 2025. The systems and

infrastructure would therefore have to be designed such that the long term needs are addressed and

planned for by 2025. The broad strategy therefore should be to identify the projects addressing the

future demand in the areas of sewerage and sanitation which the Nagar Parishad would have to take

up in the short run for which necessary investments will also have to be planned for. Table below

presents the broad strategies to achieve the given targets for sewerage and sanitation sector.

Broad Strategies to achieve the targets:

1. Effective Waste Water collection and treatment

2. Provision of safe Sanitation facilities to population and households that lack in-house sanitation

facilities.

3. Make the system Cost effective - Cover the whole area with sewerage network.

Action Plan following the Strategies

Exhibit 8-7 lists the long term and short term interventions required in sewerage and sanitation sector.

Exhibit 8-7 Sewerage & Sanitation Long Term and Short Term Interventions

Expected

Outcome

Synchronisation with water supply capacity, ability to meet service level targets and

disposal norms.

Table given below shows broad action plan needed in sewerage and sanitation sector.

Broad Action Plan for Sewerage and Sanitation Sector:

1. Development of a Sewerage System covering:

a. Waste Water collection network / Septic Tanks

b. Augmentation of Sewerage treatment capacity

2. Recycle waste water for non-potable use

3. Development of Community Toilets (covering households that lack in-house sanitation facilities)

and Public Toilets (for floating population).

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 68

Details of Projects Envisaged

For meeting the demand arising in 2035, the following sub projects are being recommended and

would have to be executed by the ULB.

Nasrullahganj has less than 25% area as development land but the settlements in the town are

spread over the entire area and are not concentrated together at one place, therefore it would be

beneficial for the town both financially and for operations and maintenance to implement

Decentralized Waste Water Treatment System (DEWATS) for comprehensive sewerage system, and

dispose-off generated sewage. This DEWAT system take into care the demand generated in the year

2035. The advantages of DEWAT system are that; it requires minimum space and hence be

accommodated easily under paved pathways and parking lots etc. or small available spaces; It

requires lesser energy and operation cost; This system promotes the reuse of water for non-potable

purposes; It can be easily blended with the landscape; It cannot be switched off so it ensures efficient

working irrespective of external factors and it can treat waste water with high fat, suspended solids

and BOD. Since this system is decentralized, the zones would be defined as per population and

location for DEWATS and the treatment system would be developed to safely dispose-off the sewage.

The treated water can be used for agricultural use.

Exhibit 8-8 Projects identified by ULB and Consultant for Sewerage & Sanitation Sector ULB’s Suggestion Project’s Proposed

Scheme for laying of sewerage network for the town. Comprehensive Sewerage Scheme for the

town of Nasrullahganj.

Project Rationale Sub- Projects

The sewerage system in the town consists of septic tanks, soaks

pits, open surface drainages and finally disposes into the natural

drains and later into major Nallah. The city will consume about 6.58

MLD of water by the year 2035. About 80 percent of water supply

as per CPHEEO norms is estimated to be generated in the town.

There is no underground drainage network in the city. The waste

water flowing in open drain results in unhygienic milieu and

pollution of water bodies and the conditions are severe during

monsoon when the sewerage overflows on the road.

Construction of sewerage network

with a total capacity of 5.26 MLD.

Construction of sewage pumping

stations.

Addition of around 37 public toilet

seats.

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals

In order to facilitate improved solid waste management, the Nagar Parishad would have to focus on

various aspects – adoption of better practices to ensure proper collection, segregation and disposal of

waste and the second being augmenting the existing infrastructure. The current status of the

infrastructure needs to be improved by increasing the equipment required for effectively handling the

waste, and most importantly developing an adequate sized landfill site. Apart from the focus on

augmenting the resources, the Nagar Parishad would be required to train its conservancy staff to

carry out the tasks effectively. Immediate priority needs to be placed on improving the skills of the

conservancy staff and also to increase.

Development of Vermi-Composting Plant

Vermicomposting involves the stabilisation of organic solid waste through earthworm consumption

which converts the material into worm castings. Vermi technology, a tripartite system which involves

biomass, microbes and earthworms is influenced by the abiotic factors such as temperature,

moisture, aeration etc. Conditions unfavourable to aerobic decomposition result in mortality of

earthworms and subsequently no vermicomposting occurs. Hence, pre-processing of the waste as

well as providing favourable environmental condition is necessary for vermicomposting. It is relatively

more stabilised and harmonises with soil system without any ill effects. Unfavourable conditions such

as particle size of biomass and extent of its decomposition, very large temperature increase,

anaerobic condition, toxicity of decomposition products etc. influence activity of worms. Tests in India

have shown that vermin compost application can double wheat yields and quadruple yields of fodder.

Method to prepare Vermi-Compost: The MSW is segregated i.e all the dry wastes such as clothes,

carry bags and other dry wastes are segregated from wet waste. A thatched roof shed preferably

open from all sides with unpaved (Kutcha) floor is erected in East West direction length wise to

protect the site from direct sunlight. A shed area of 12‟X12‟ is sufficient to accommodate three vermin

beds of 10‟X3‟ each having 1‟ space in between for treatment of 9-12 quintals of waste in a cycle of

40-45 days. The length of shed can be increased/decreased depending upon the quantity of waste to

be treated and availability of space. The height of thatched roof is kept at 8 feet from the centre and 6

feet from the sides. The base of the site is raised at least 6 inches above ground to protect it from

flooding during the rains. The wet waste is pulverized and arranged in the form of vermin bed over the

raised ground. The loaded waste is finally covered with a Jute Mat to protect earthworms from birds

and insects. Water is sprinkled on the vermin beds daily according to requirement and season to keep

them moist. The waste is turned upside down fortnightly without disturbing the basal layer (vermin

bed).The appearance of black granular crumbly powder on top of vermin beds indicate harvest stage

of the compost. The earthworms go down and the compost is collected from the top without disturbing

the lower layers (vermin bed). The first lot of Vermi compost is ready for harvesting after 22 ½ months

and the subsequent lots can be harvested after every 6 weeks of loading. The vermin bed is loaded

for the next treatment cycle.

year 2015 may be taken up as priority projects. The suggestions which had been put forth in the

stakeholder consultation would have been clubbed under the category of short term requirements and

the long term requirements (2035) should be addressed by the Nagar Parishad in the second phase.

Details of Projects Envisaged

Following are the projects proposed during the stakeholder consultation and also based on the rapid

urban assessment carried out by the Consultant.

Development of Root Zone Treatment System (RZTS): It is observed that the sewage flowing

through nallahs joins Rivers in untreated condition and creates heavy risk of river pollution. Storm

water can be treated as well with RZTS after removal of settleable substances. It is a low-cost and

maintenance free option that uses the capacity of plants (especially certain reeds – hence also called

reedbed technology) to absorb contaminants and structurally modify them for treating water. It is

based on the principle of attached growth biological reactors similar to conventional trickling filters

with combination of aerobic and anaerobic zones. The contaminants present in the wastewater are

treated as they seep through the root-zone of the plants by a combination of plants, soil bacteria and

hydraulic flow systems resulting in physical, chemical, and microbiological processes. Oxygen present

in the zone facilitates the degradation of wastewater. A wide variety of microorganisms present in the

root-zone of the plants results in efficient removal. There is efficient reduction of pathogens also by

percolation through the bed material. Thus, it can be developed in Nasrullahganj along storm water

drains.

According to normative standards, the length of the

drains are assumed at 130% of road length

considering all divided roads to have drains on either

side and undivided roads on at least one side. Further

the drains in the initial phase shall be open and

subsequently be made closed; hence the investment is

towards up-gradation annually and for construction of

new closed drains. All existing open drains shall be first

upgraded to closed drains and subsequently new

drains shall be constructed.

Prominently, all the road and storm water projects are

to be taken up simultaneously to match the levels of

the roads with the drains and allow draining of rain

water from the city.

Cleaning/Desilting of natural drains such as nallah

flowing from west to east part of the city.

infrastructure and provision of efficient parking facilities

Awareness generation and enforcement of traffic rules

Better connectivity within the city

Action Plan following the Strategies

In the case of the road sector, the broad strategy which the Nagar Parishad should follow is one

wherein the existing gaps in this sector and the future requirements would be addressed in terms of

two categories of priority or short term needs and long term needs. The overall plan in this sector

should be based on two principles:

Medium term action plan aimed at development of transport infrastructure for a period of 5-10

years to bring about coordinated development among different components. These measures

typically will include various infrastructure projects, which will be directed at network

improvements such as parallel roads, link roads, slip roads, etc.

Long-term action plan aimed at development of structure plan for the Urban Area with Transit as

one of the lead components, which will direct the urban growth so as to bring about a structural fit

between transit infrastructure and Urban Growth.

The broad sector interventions to address both the short and long term requirements have been

enlisted below:

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goal

For the provision of medical infrastructure, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad‟s role is limited to primary

level services and in even the Government Hospital not much facility is found. To promote medical

facilities, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad must provide a conducive environment for other government

agencies and private developers in the form of support infrastructure, incentives, etc.

Future steps towards improvement in health care facilities should be based on certain principles.

There needs to be an emphasis on participatory planning in medical care, quality health care and

client satisfaction and preventive health care measures. Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should target

the eradication of preventable diseases by 2015. This may be helped by the supply of good quality

drinking water and sanitation facilities and strict control and supervision of hotels and roadside food

vendors. A resolution of the mosquito menace will eradicate the slew of health issues. Total

vaccination of the population as per WHO schedules should also be completed by 2015.

To ensure quality medical care to the under-privileged, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should make

plans for involving private doctors by providing them with free space in existing Parishad

dispensaries. To achieve the goals by finalized strategies, we have estimated the number of hospitals

and other medical institutions that would be required in the city. These estimations have been done in

accordance to the UDPFI guidelines.

8.2.11. Environment Sector Goals

“To accomplish clean, green and safe living environment for all citizens”

Key areas which would be addressed by detailed strategies and action plan to meet the sector goal

are provided below. These areas have been identified on the basis of workshops, consultations and

review of best practices in the sector.

Pollution Sources; Air, Water, Soil and Noise

Demand / Supply side control

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals

For retaining the healthy status of Nasrullahganj‟s urban environment, several planning and

conservation initiatives need to be taken. This could be achieved through the proper zoning of

activities, provision for sufficient breathing space in new development and adoption of proper

landscape design practices at the city level. It is also important to promote conservation in the region

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 82

consciously. There should be a clear-cut strategy to conserve and protect the physical environment,

including rivers and natural drains in and around Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. It is important to

weigh the environmental impact of the new programs or development schemes. Lately, a large

number of unauthorized layouts have come up in the city, near to the city‟s fringes or in fringe areas. It

is important to devise a plan, which can check the growth of these unauthorized developments,

especially within the city‟s precincts. Lake and River conservation should also be explored with the

possibilities of reviving lakes as water sources or points of interest in the city.

Action Plan following the Strategies and Projects Envisaged

This section discusses various aspects of urban environment and their addressing by the projects

proposed in other urban services. In addition to this, some projects are also proposed with specific

focus on improving the quality of environment.

1. Air Quality: Periodic monitoring and review is essential to check air quality. To create awareness

amongst user groups, the status of air pollution may be revealed through display systems

instituted at major locations in the city. Suitable plantations or green cover should be provided on

major routes to supplement better air quality. This would partially be addressed by the

development of Parks in the town and a massive tree plantation drive.

2. Water Pollution: Efforts/schemes should be designed to check the diversion of sewage flow into

major Nallah through appropriately located sewage treatment plants. Considering the issues

related to the demand for treating large amounts of sewage generated in Nasrullahganj,

decentralized sewage treatment is recommended. This aspect would be addressed by the

development and upgradation of Sewerage & Sanitation facilities, Storm water drainage

infrastructure and strengthening of solid waste collection/transportation system.

3. Development of a Regional Plan: To ensure sustainable development with optimum resource

utilization, it may be necessary to develop a Nasrullahganj Regional Plan or Master Plan. For

maintenance of open space, the planning authority at the regional level should prepare a detailed

inventory of the space and explore its probable multiple uses or forms for recreation and visual

pleasure. Possibilities to include the private sector for maintenance of these areas should be

explored.

8.2.12. Economic Development Sector Goals

“Sustainable economic development on the basis of inherent strengths of the city through

promotion of health, education, tourism and industrial sectors – focus on local employment

opportunities”

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals

The town economy is predominantly agrarian in nature with majority of the workers engaged in

primary sector activities and educated youths migrate out of city for employment opportunity. The

town lacks a sound economic activity base. The weak town economy has also resulted in the brain-

drain which in turn affects the town‟s economy. Resources should be mobilised to provide support to

boost the local economy. Measures should be taken to establish small and medium scale industries.

Special care needs to be taken for women employment and education. In a nutshell, following

strategies need to be adopted for sustainable economic development:

Incentivizing agriculture,

Projects Envisaged

For promoting economic development of the town, following projects have been envisaged for

Nasrullahganj.

1. Development of Commercial Areas: This can further be achieved by development of new

commercial areas and up gradation of existing commercial areas. New commercial areas can

include dedicated markets for important commodities or general markets. In addition to the

development of new markets, existing markets can be upgraded to increase their capacity and

provide better services to the users and customers.

2. Development of Industrial Area for Small & Medium scale industries: With the objective of

diversifying the economic base of Nasrullahganj Town, an industrial park for small & medium

scale industries should be developed. A land should be identified either within the municipal limits

or near to the city boundary and proposal should be sent to the appropriate authorities for the

same. This would thrust to the employment generation activities result into the overall upliftment

of the society.

3. Redevelopment of Hawkers Zone: The hawker‟s zone in city is not organized. The Hawkers

zone would dedicate space to the hawkers and hence reducing congestion on the city roads,

making waste collection easier and making it easier for customers to shop.

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals

The decentralization of urban functions to local bodies has increased their responsibilities manifold.

For the prescribed level of service delivery, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should take concerted

actions to augment the capacity, wherever necessary, and enable existing staff to perform efficiently

by providing them with necessary training. E-governance will be very helpful in smoothening various

process & procedures. It will also lead to an expeditious service delivery.

Action Plan following the Strategies and Projects Envisaged

Following is the list of the projects that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should take to improve urban

governance in Nasrullahganj.

1. Computerization: Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should initiate the process of computerization in

its administration. Computerization will benefit most of its functions ranging from municipal

accounting to tax management. The introduction of E-Governance will help in smoothening the

processes and improvement in the efficiency.

2. Capacity Building: The procurement of computers should be supplemented by providing training

to the staff.

3. GIS Mapping: A GIS mapping of the city properties will be very helpful in the provision of efficient

services to the citizens. This would also help in keeping a tab on tax evaders.

8.3. Prioritisation of Projects based on Questionnaire Survey Result

In the second workshop conducted on December 23rd, 2011, questionnaire survey was carried out for

the formulation of city vision and sector strategies. The discussion took place with around 25

stakeholders who included, CMO, Adshyakha and other eminent people of the city. The questionnaire

consisted questions pertaining to the level of city infrastructure such as water supply, road, sewerage,

college, hospitals, mode for economic development, overall quality of life in city, vision in their opinion

for the city. Each sector status was discussed in detail and their view on sector development was

taken.

8.3.1. Methodology for Questionnaire Survey Sample Set for the Interview

Around 25 stakeholders participated in the workshop and care was taken that representation from

various sector be present during the survey. Stakeholders consisted of senior Government officials

like CMO of Nagar Parishad, Elected Body head – Adhyaksha and Parshads (Ward Councilors),

citizens, reporters, Nagar Parishad staffs. During the town survey, verbal survey of questionnaire was

already carried out from Schools and Hospitals.

Questions for the Interview

The interview questionnaire consisted of 12 questions pertaining to sectors like main problem of the

town, sector specific questions on water supply, drainage, social infrastructure, roads, solid waste

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 85

disposal, schools, health facility, and economic development options. Similarly 14 questions were

given ward specific. Detailed questionnaire is attached in Annexure II.

Analysis of the response

The respondents were asked to rate the problems and then answers across the respondent were

added to get the number of respondents rating a particular problem as high, medium or low. A score

was calculated for the each of the subsectors by having weighted average calculation; the most

important bucket was given the highest weight. The scores thus obtained were rank ordered in

descending order to identify the sub sectors in order of priority.

8.3.2. Ranking of the town requirement

Ranking of the town requirements and priorities as per outcome of the questionnaire survey is

presented in the exhibits below. As can be seen in the exhibits below that Sewerage, Storm Water

Drainage and Solid waste Management takes the top most priorities when it comes to need of

infrastructure development in the town. Water supply in the town comes lowest in the priority list as

there is an on-going project under construction and it is assumed that water supply infrastructure in

the town would be adequately addressed once the supply from the new project commissions.

If we talk of priorities within particular sectors, currently within social infrastructure, Government

hospital facilities need to be enhanced followed with development of new markets. It is felt that

blocked drains are a major cause for non-performing drainage infrastructure which is also

complimented by road encroachment which is a major traffic concern. Talking of water supply in the

town, currently, insufficient water supply and poor quality of water are priority concerns, though it is

believed that the project in pipeline would address these to satisfaction.

discussion on sector strategies was followed by the identification of interventions required in every

sector. This was followed by the identification of projects and project implementation agencies.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 88

9. CITY INVESTMENT PLAN

To achieve the formulated vision of Nasrullahganj, a City Investment Plan (CIP) has been prepared

through a comprehensive process of assessment of gaps in physical and social infrastructure sectors,

which includes with the various rounds of the public consultations. This assessment has led to the

identification of sector specific strategies, implementation actions and associated reforms with specific

inputs from stakeholders.

The strategies adopted primarily have three dimensions; improving the service delivery by efficiency

measures, improving service delivery by creating infrastructure assets and improving the governance

aspects of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. This section summarizes the capital investments required

for creating infrastructure assets and various strategic interventions required in the implementation of

such projects; these strategies are both investments oriented and administrative oriented.

9.1. City Investment Plan (CIP)

The City Investment Plan is a multi-year scheduling of identified and prioritized investments. The

scheduling or phasing of the plan is based on the assessment of fiscal resources‟ availability (for new

investments and O&M), technical capacity for construction and O&M, and the choice of specific

improvements to be carried out by 2015.

The need for the CIP is on account of:

City growth and infrastructure needs (to be carried out once every five years);

Scheduling of investments of ongoing projects due to cost and/ or time overruns;

Assigning of priorities within the constraints of available financial resources.

9.2. Institutionalizing the CIP Process

The City Investment Plan is an important element and is significant in terms of the city‟s management

process and sustainability with regard to the delivery of basic services. The CIP will also provide a

framework for the annual budget cycle of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad for the next five years. As a

part of Nasrullahganj CDP, CIP includes the following:

The desired service levels/ standards for infrastructure provision;

Identified the roles and responsibilities of various stakeholders in the implementation of

identified projects;

Project phasing and strategies for implementation.

In Nasrullahganj, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad has the primary responsibility of delivering municipal

services. So the CDP proposals will have to be implemented by the Nagar Parishad. The projects,

prioritization, investment phasing, strategies and action plan are framed accordingly.

The CIP involved the identification of public facilities to cater demand of the city populace in the years

2015, 2025 and 2035. The projects have been identified through a demand-gap analysis for various

urban services. Identification of projects was followed by their prioritization based on the stakeholder‟s

consultation. The projects identified are aimed at ensuring the optimal and efficient utilization of

existing infrastructure systems and enhancing the capacity of the systems/services to cater to the

demands of future population. In addition to the projects which are related to major urban services,

CIP also includes developmental projects like greenery development, parking spaces, system

modernization etc.

The CIP and forecasted future needs for provision of capital facilities under each identified sector is

presented below. These assets will help Nasrullahganj in improving the quality and coverage of

service for the current population as well as accommodate the expected increase in population. In

some of the sectors like source augmentation for water supply, development of landfill site etc, a

planning horizon of 25 years has been considered.

9.3. Summary of Investments

The total estimated capital investment required for providing efficient services to the present

population and future population of Nasrullahganj by the year 2035 is Rs. 76.24 crores at constant

prices. Of the total identified investment a total of Rs. 32.74 crores of investment has been proposed

till year 2015.

The planning horizon for the projects has been considered on the basis of demand generation in

various decades and degree of initial capital investment. Hence, some of the sectors have been

planned for the short term as well as the long term whereas some sectors have been divided into

various sub-parts in which some of the sub-parts have been planned for the long term only whereas

rest of the sub-parts have been planned for short term and long term.

The phasing of the identified projects and investments is based on the following principles.

Priority needs, with developed areas receiving priority over future development area;

Inter and intra-service linkages, viz. water supply investments shall be complemented by

corresponding sewerage/ sanitation improvements;

Size and duration of the requirements, including preparation and implementation period.

Following section details about the existing plan under which this investments can be considered.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 107

10. FINANCIAL AND OPERATING PLAN

10.1. Introduction

The sustainable investment capacity of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is assessed through a

Financial Operating Plan (FOP), which gives a yearly forecast of finances for the short term i.e. year

2012-13 to year 2015-16. A salient feature of the FOP is that all outstanding dues, including debt and

non-debt liabilities if any, have been taken into account.

The accounts data of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad for the financial years from year 2006-07 to year

20010-11 have been to determine the past trends in revenue and expenditure. The trends were then

analyzed to arrive at appropriate growth assumptions for various revenue and expenditure items. The

forecasting of revenue and expenditure accounts was followed by the factoring of capital investments

identified under CIP to assess the investment sustainability of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad.

The project funding structure comprises of grants under the State scheme (accounting for 30 per cent

of the funding); internal resources and loans accounting for the rest. 75% of the loan repayment would

be the responsibility of the state and rest 25% to be managed by ULB. The level of investment that

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad can sustain is determined by studying the overall surpluses/ year-to-

year opening balance and debt service coverage ratio. If the debt service coverage ratio - DSCR

(amount of surplus available to pay interest and to repay principal that is due) falls below 1, then the

investments are reduced gradually till the DSCR exceeds 1 in all the years in the forecast period.

The main items of income and expenditure, classified into the revenue account and the capital

account, are projected in the FOP under the following categories.

Categories of FOP Projections 1. Revenue Account Receipts:

a. Taxes, Non Tax Sources, Assigned Revenue and

b. Grants, Contribution and Subsidies

2. Revenue Account Expenditure:

a. Establishment

b. Operation and Maintenance

c. Debt Servicing- Existing and New Loans

d. Phasing of non-debt liabilities, and

e. Additional O&M

3. Capital Income and

4. Capital Expenditure

10.2. Financing Strategies for the CIP

In determining a long-term financial strategy, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad plans to raise resources

and funds for the CIP through:

1. Grants available under the State scheme Framework (as 30 percent State Govt. Grants).

2. Available internal resources and improving upon the same through by following methods:-

a. Revision of the Unit Area Value at certain levels, which would lead to revision in Annual letting

Value (applicable for Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad )

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 108

b. Revision of Water charges at specific intervals. Though the revision in water tariff should be

done on annual basis to recover 100% of the O&M cost. However, annual revision is not a

general practice in all the ULBs across the state, so revision after every five years is

envisaged for projections.

c. Introduction of Sewerage Charges in 2014-15, after implementing the Sewerage Project

d. Maintenance of the collection performance of taxes and charges at certain minimum levels for

current and for arrears

e. Borrowings from market or financial institutions

10.3. Finance Projections

Current revenue sources are projected under built-in growth assumptions for income and expenditure

items, to assess the impact of each such revenue enhancement measure being suggested. The

projections also aim at estimating the surplus that will be available for servicing new debt. Part of the

surplus, after meeting the additional O&M expenses on newly created assets and infrastructure, is

translated into debt size and project size (grant component plus debt component) based on certain

assumptions regarding interest rate, repayment method and loan-grant mix.

A spreadsheet FOP model has been customised to depict the financial position of Nasrullahganj

Nagar Parishad; the investment sustaining capacity of Nagar Parishad is assessed based on the FOP

assumptions. The model was used to calculate future surpluses under various scenarios involving

combinations of internal revenue improvement, state support, financing terms, etc.

10.3.1. Municipal Account – Growth Projections and Assumptions

The standard assumptions under which the projections are carried out and certain expenditure control

and revenue augmentation measures proposed in line with the mandatory and optional reforms

10.3.2. Investment Capacity / Sustenance

Given the existing financial position of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad, the revenue and capital

accounts are projected against the growth scenario and assumptions presented above. The City

Investment Plan (CIP) prepared in the previous chapter shows that the total investment required to

develop Nasrullahganj City is Rs. 32.74 crore at constant prices till 2015 (of the total Rs. 76.24 crore

investment identified for funding till 2035). It includes about Rs. 4.39 crore towards Education and

Health sector, which are not provided by Nagar Parishad. Hence for FOP is generated from the

sustainable investment point of view in line with current growth trends against the identified

investment for Nagar Parishad of Rs. 14.74 crore at constant prices till 2015, which excludes

investment required for Health and Education sector.

Base Investment Capacity

Base Investment Capacity is estimated considering business as usual case, where Nasrullahganj

Nagar Parishad has not taken any grant under UIDSSMT scheme and has not done any reforms to

increase their revenue income. At this scenario Nagar Parishad will be able to sustain only 6.6 % of

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 110

the total investment identified for year 2015, which is about Rs. 1.74 crore at constant price and Rs.

2.08 crore at current price.

Impact of Reforms on Investment Capacity of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad

Following are the cases considered as shown in Exhibit 10-2 and sustainability was checked.

Scenario 1: With reforms in Property Tax, Water Charges and Sewerage charges

This case assumes the reforms in property tax, Water and Sewerage have been implemented and

accordingly the investment capacity has increased by Rs. 0.79 crore above the base investment

capacity. These reforms will increase the total sustainable capacity to 9.6%.

Scenario 2: Reforms and State Grants ,without debt Funding

This case assumes that all the reforms suggested above are being implemented and UIDSSMT

grants are also availed. In this scenario Nagar Parishad‟s sustainable capacity will increase to 39.6 %,

which is 30% in addition to scenario 1. Now Nagar Parishad will be able to sustain investment of

about Rs. 10.44 crore at constant price and Rs. 10.48 crore at current price.

Scenario 3: Reforms and UIDSSMT grants along with debt Funding

This case assumes that Nagar Parishad can increase their sustainable capacity by taking debt from

any financial institution or private banks in addition to the implementation of reforms suggested above

and grants under with UIDSSMT grants. In this scenario can sustain up to 50.50 % of the total

investment identified, which is 11 % more than without debt funding scenario. Now Nagar Parishad

will be able to sustain investment of about Rs. 13.32 crore at constant price and Rs. 15.91 crore at

current price.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 111

The impact of the different scenario on the investment sustainability of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad

is shown below in Exhibit 10-3.

Exhibit 10-3 Impact of reforms and grants on investment capacity

10.4. Fund Requirement

For the identified investment for Nagar Parishad of Rs. 26.37 crore at constant prices only Rs. 13.32

crore is sustainable. Exhibit 10-4 shows the funding pattern for sustainable investment

Exhibit 10-4 CIP Funding Pattern S. No Mode of Funding Source Amount (Rs. Crore) % of Total Investment

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad

Total Identified Investment till 2015 (current price) 32.58

Investment by Nagar Parishad (current price) 26.29 100

Sustainable Investment till 2015 (constant price) 13.32 50.50

Sustainable Investment (current) 15.91

1 Grants UIDSSMT 13.09 49.7

2 Loans Open Market/ FIs 28.1 1.06

3 Own sources Nagar Parishad 15.91 59.36

From the above analysis, it is very clear that ULB alone even with the grant support under UIDSSMT

scheme and reforms will not be able to implement 100% of the projects identified under the City

Investment Plan (CIP). But they can substantially increase their sustainable capacity with these

reforms. So, it is recommended that ULB along the support from UADD, GoMP should try to develop

few projects at PPP model and additional grant support from GoMP.

It is also recommended that on the same lines of the National Urban Information System (NUIS)

programme for strengthening of information system at Nagar Parishad level, GoMP should also

provide support to all the local bodies in Madhya Pradesh, which are not covered in the mentioned

programme.

10.5. Financial Operating plan

Based on all the assumption for projections discussed in the Exhibit 10 1 and the implementation of

the strategies to improve sustainability of Nagar Parishad, the FOP has been prepared. However, the

summary of final revenue model is presented in Exhibit 10-5.

This chapter discussed the Investment sustainability of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. The discussion

on assumptions for various financial projections was followed by detailing of investment capacity of

ULB. The investment capacity was analyzed for four scenarios; Base case, PT improvements &

Sector Reforms, UIDSSMT Grants & Reforms and Debt Funding & Reforms. The investment capacity

analysis was followed by a discussion on the funding requirement of the city.

The next chapter deals with the urban reforms and includes the discussion on the objective and

current status of various reforms mandated under UIDSSMT.

11. URBAN REFORMS

11.1. Introduction

In recent times, several initiatives have been taken by GoI and GoMP to a) improve infrastructural

facilities and help create durable public assets and quality oriented services in cities & towns, b)

enhance public-private-partnership in infrastructural development, and c) promote planned integrated

development of towns and cities. A key aspect in achieving the aforementioned goals is improvement

in Urban Governance and Service Delivery. The underlying objective of most of the recent initiatives

is to make ULBs financially sound and enable them to undertake new projects.

The main thrust of the revised strategy of urban renewal is to ensure improvement in urban

governance so that Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) and parastatal agencies become financially sound

with enhanced credit rating and ability to access market capital for undertaking new programmes and

expansion of services. In this improved environment, public-private participation models for

provisioning of various services would also become feasible.

Among various schemes aimed at the urban renewal, the most important schemes are Jawaharlal

Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) and Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme

for Small & Medium Towns (UIDSSMT). Whereas JNNURM has its own selection criteria for the cities

which can receive funding under it, UIDSSMT expands the ambit of beneficiaries to cover all

cities/towns as per 2001 census excepting cities/towns covered under JNNURM.

UIDSSMT aims at improvement in urban infrastructure in towns and cities in a planned manner. To

achieve this objective, State Governments, Urban Local Bodies and parastatal agencies are required

to accept implementation of an agenda of reforms as funding under UIDSSMT has been linked with

the ULBs performance towards the implementation of anticipated reforms.

The proposed reforms at various level of governance have been categorized into:

1. Mandatory Reforms at the level of the State Government,

2. Mandatory Reforms at the level of the Urban Local Body

3. Optional Reforms at level of the State Government/Urban Local Body

11.2. Mandatory Reforms at the level of the State Government

11.2.1. Implementation of the 74th Constitutional Amendment Act Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/cities in implementing the 74th

Amendment of the Constitution, with the objective of implementing decentralization measures. The

State should ensure meaningful association and engagement of Urban Local Bodies in planning the

function of parastatal agencies as well as the delivery of services to the citizens.

municipal councils, 3) reservation of seats for women, SCs & STs, 4) constitution of district

planning committees and, 5) incorporation of schedule 12 into the state municipal act. The

Process for constitution of MPCs in Million Plus cities is in progress.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 114

2. In addition to incorporation of schedule 12 in the state municipal act, all the functions that were

required to be transferred to ULB has been transferred by MP state government to ULBs.

3. The SFC has been constituted and recommendations have been submitted by the same.

Timeline for Reforms

All the reforms which were applicable under this section have been carried out.

11.2.2. Public Disclosure Law Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Public Disclosure, with the

objective that municipalities and parastatal agencies will have to publish information about the Nagar

Parishad and its functioning on a periodic basis and disclose it to all the citizens. Such information

includes but is not limited to statutorily audit statements of annual performance covering operating

and financial parameters, and service levels for various services being rendered by the Nagar

Parishad.

Current Status

GoMP has issued instructions to ULBs to disclose as much information as possible through different

means such as web sites, notice board, etc.

Timeline for Action on Reforms

Public Disclosure Law was implemented in 2008-09. Provision has been made in Acts and Rules

have been framed.

11.2.3. Rationalization of Stamp Duty Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/cities to rationalize Stamp Duty, with

the objective of establishing an efficient real estate market with minimum barriers on transfer of

property so as to be put into more productive use.

Current Status

Earlier Stamp duty rates in Madhya Pradesh stood at 7.5% of the Market value. The rates have been

reduced to 5%, and are in effect from 1st April 2011. The computerization of whole system is also in

the progress.

Timeline for Reforms

The reform has been implemented in the state. Reduction in rates by 0.5% were implemented in year

2008-09, that continued for FY 09-10 and 10-11 and then finally rate reduced to 5% w.e.f. 1st April,

2011.

11.2.4. Repeal of Urban Land Ceiling and Regulation Act Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in the Repeal of ULCRA with the

objective of increasing the supply of land in the market, removing the inefficiencies and in the

establishment of an efficient land market.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 115

Current Status

The ULCRA has been repealed in the year 2000.

Timeline for Reforms

All the reforms under this section have been carried out.

11.2.5. Rent Control Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Rent Control, with the

objective of having a system that balances the rights and obligations of landlords and tenants to

and robust rental/tenancy market, so as to improve the availability of housing across all income

categories.

Current Status

The MP Parisar Kirayedari Vidheyak, 2010 was passed by the State Assembly in March, 2010. Thus,

the reform for rent control in the state has been partially achieved. Bill has been sent to GoI for

Presidential Assent.

Timeline for Reforms

The reforms under this section are in progress.

11.2.6. Community Participation Law Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Community Participation, with

the objective of institutionalizing citizen participation as well as introducing the concept of the Area

Sabha in urban areas. The larger objective is to involve citizens in municipal functions, e.g. setting

priorities, budgeting provisions, etc. The Community Participation Law refers to the appropriate

provisions that need to be made in the state-level municipal statute(s) for the establishment of such a

3- or 4-tiered structure precisely as described above. These enactments will also need to ensure clear

definition of functions, duties and powers of each of these tiers, and provide for the appropriate

devolution of funds, functions and functionaries as may be decided by the State Government to these

levels.

Current Status

Completed – Mohalla samiti are formed as the third tier. Provisions have been made in Municipal Acts

and Rules have been framed for prescribing procedure.

Timeline for Reforms Community Participation Law is proposed to be enacted on the basis of Model Community

Participation Law.

Constitution of Mohalla Committees to further decentralize the system.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 116

11.2.7. City Planning Functions Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in the area of city planning, with

an objective to assign or associate elected ULBs with “city planning functions”.

Current Status

In this area, all reforms have been achieved with the transfer of powers related to the provisioning of

water supply & sewerage, public transport and solid waste management. This has been supported by

the association of ULB with city planning functions. This has been achieved by the active participation

of ULB in the preparation of city development plans.

Timeline for Reforms

All objectives of this reform except related to those of traffic and transport, have been achieved by

various measures taken by state government.

11.3. Mandatory Reforms at the level of the Urban Local Body

11.3.1. Municipal Accounting Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Municipal Accounting, with the

objective of having a modern accounting system based on double-entry accrual principles, leading to

better financial management, transparency and self-reliance.

Current Status 1. At present, Double Entry Cash Base system of accounting is being followed in NPP.

2. Double Entry Accrual Base accounting has not been adopted in the NPP.

3. State has drafted its own accounting manual which has been revised as per the provision of

NMAM.

4. State has not modified its current laws and regulations to be in compliance with the double entry

accrual based accounting.

5. A resolution has been passed by Government expressing commitment to establish modern

municipal accounting system.

Timeline for Reforms

With the growing thrust on adoption of double entry accrual base system of accounting in state and its

several advantages over the existing system, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should strive to shift to

the new system on the immediate basis. It should carry out all the requisites and migrate to the new

system by year 2014-15. It is also recommended that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should adhere to

timelines, provided in Exhibit 11-1, to achieve the objectives of this reform by year 2015-16.

11.3.2. E-Governance Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in E-Governance, with the

objective of having a transparent administration, quick service delivery, effective MIS, and general

improvement in the service delivery link.

Current Status

Till now, none of the services has been covered by e-governance applications. The applications which

were proposed to bring under e-governance are registration of births & deaths, public grievance

redressal, payment of property tax and bills of other utilities, municipal accounting, works

management system, etc.

Timeline for Reforms

To achieve the objectives of this reform, town would be required to bring many of its services and

procedures under the ambit of e-governance. As the first step, town should procure equipment

required for various applications by year 2011-12, which should be followed by the capacity building

exercises aimed at enabling existing staff and recruitment of new staff competent to carry out the

required duties. The city should aim to carry out registration of births & deaths, public grievance

redressal, payment of property tax and bills of other utilities, municipal accounting, and works

management system through computerization by year 2015-16. It is also recommended that

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should adhere to timelines, provided in Exhibit 11-2, to achieve the

objectives of this reform by year 2015-16.

11.3.3. User Charges Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in the levy of User Charges on

different municipal services, with an objective of securing effective linkages between asset creation

and asset maintenance and ultimately leading to self-sustaining delivery of urban services.

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 118

Current Status

At present, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad levies user charges only for Water supply. Nasrullahganj

Nagar Parishad charges Rs 2650 and Rs 3750 as connection fee for domestic and commercial new

connection respectively. The tariff structure is based on flat rate. The tariff for domestic connection is

Rs 50 per month and commercial connection is Rs. 100 per month.

Timeline for Reforms

Firstly, Nagar Parishad should establish a proper accounting system for Water Supply and should

subsequently expand this system to other services such as solid waste management, sewerage, etc.

The accounting system for water supply should be established together with the reforms related to

municipal accounting. A proper accounting system should be in place for all the municipal services by

year 2014-15. During this period, ULB should work in coordination of state government to define a

user charge structure and service standards for each of the services. These initiatives should result in

full recovery of O&M costs by year 2015-16. It is also recommended that Nasrullahganj Nagar

Parishad should adhere to timelines, provided in Exhibit 11-3, to achieve the objectives of this reform

by year 2015-16.

11.3.4. Basic Services to the Urban Poor Desired Objective

Provision of basic services to the poor including security of tenure at affordable prices, improved

housing, water supply, sanitation and ensuring delivery of other existing universal services of the

Government for education, health and social security.

Current Status

The Nagar Parishad attempts to universalize the coverage of services such as water supply,

sanitation, solid waste management and other infrastructure facilities but has not achieved any break

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 119

through due to the location disadvantage of these areas and inadequacy of funds available. Nagar

Parishad has also been coordinating with other agencies for the universalization of services like

health and education.

Timeline for Reforms

The Nagar Parishad should attempt to increase the coverage of all services so that all urban poor

have access to a minimum level of service. This can be achieved by means of various sub projects in

a phased manner. Schemes like IHSDP should address the issue of housing and rehabilitation

whereas all new projects should consider delivery of services to the poor as a part of their primary

objective. All projects identified should give a due importance to coverage of town‟s poor population.

In addition to the new developmental works, works related to upgradation or strengthening of service

delivery mechanism should also focus on the town‟s poor population. Town should target a period 5

years to cover all urban poor with basic services.

11.3.5. Internal earmarking for basic services for poor Desired Objective

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in the provision of basic services

to the Urban Poor, with an objective of providing security of tenure at affordable prices, improved

housing, water supply and sanitation. In addition, delivery of other existing universal services of the

government for education, health and social security is to be ensured.

Current Status

State has identified all Urban Below-Poverty-Line families using financial and non-financial criteria.

While financial criterion uses monthly income as the parameter, non-financial criterion attempts to

cover social factors such as housing, water & hygiene, education, literacy, employment, etc.

Timeline for Reforms

A detailed survey to identify the needs of urban poor in the areas of infrastructure and socio-economic

upliftment should be carried out. Based on the findings of this survey and an institutional support from

the state government, Nagar Parishad should allocate certain percentage, ranging from 20 to 25 %, of

their expenditure for the urban poor. It is also recommended that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad

should adhere to timelines, provided in Exhibit 11-4, to achieve the objectives of this reform by year

2015-16.

11.3.6. Property Tax Desired Objective

JNNURM requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Property Taxes, with the broad

objective of establishing a simple, transparent, non-discretionary and equitable property tax regime

that encourages voluntary compliance. States/cities need to ensure that their desirable objectives for

reforms include these reforms, but need not restrict themselves to these items.

Current Status

Currently, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad levies property tax on residential, commercial properties and

its collection during the year 2010-11 was Rs. 111087. The property tax is being calculated on the

basis of Unit Area method.

Timeline for Reforms

Considering the low collection efficiency and gap between properties liable to pay property tax and

properties that actually pay, property tax reforms should be carried out on the immediate basis to

improve the municipal revenues. It is recommended that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should adhere

to timelines, provided in Exhibit 11-5, to achieve the objectives of this reform by year 2015-16.

ANNEXURES 1: WORKSHOP PROCEEDINGS

First Workshop - Inception Workshop

An Inception workshop was conducted on 2nd Nov 2011 in the office of Nagar Parishad. The

objective of this workshop was to introduce the stake holders of the city (Municipal council members,

municipal officials, representatives from other departments and other eminent citizens) to the concept

of City Development plan as strategy document which would focus on the vision of the city for coming

25 years and to involve the citizens in the City Development Plan (CDP) process and take their

feedback on the identified infrastructure constraints that the city was facing. The meeting was

organised with the help of Nagar Parishad and was attended by the people listed in the exhibit below.

A brief summary of proceedings of “Kick-off” Stakeholder Consultation Workshop is as follows:

1. ICRA Management Consulting Services Limited

(IMaCS) made an inaugural address in which

background to the study was explained which was

followed by an overview of the firm. IMaCS

showcased its capability in doing this kind of study

by demonstrating successful completion of similar

projects in the past.

2. IMaCS explained the need for a long-term plan for

Nasrullahganj and role of IMaCS, with support from

Stakeholders, in preparing the City Development

Plan. IMaCS team also sensitised the stakeholders

to start formulating a vision for the town.

“Kick-off” Stakeholder Consultation Workshop

City Development plan for Nasrullahganj 123

3. Adhayksch and CMO, Nasrullahganj stressed on the need of primary focus on improving overall

quality of life of the citizens in addition to the physical and social infrastructure of the town.

The presentation by IMaCS familiarized the stakeholders with the purpose, process, and expected

outcomes of the CDP study. Members were then requested for their views and suggestions in

formulating the City Development Plan with key stress on following areas:

1. Vision for the town in the next 25 years;

2. Projects to be undertaken and

3. Ward specific issues that need immediate attention .

A few sector wise suggestions that came out of the discussion are as under

Water Supply: Water being an essential and a vital need, needs a proper conservation and a

harvesting plan to provide the town with adequate water supply when required. During the time span

when water sources get fully exhausted, the city needs are fulfilled by various sources like tankers

etc.

Drainage: Existing Drainage system needs a revamping as it is totally dilapidated. Unhygienic

environment is mainly caused by open drains and sewerage getting accumulated at various junctions

in front of the households, which in turn has caused a milieu for the residents and is a potential health

hazard.

Sewerage & Sanitation: The city in general is not equipped with a Sewerage system. A sewerage

system should be developed at the earliest.

Solid Waste Management: Major concern is disposal of solid waste. New disposal sites need to be

identified and existing disposal sites should be properly maintained according to recognized norms in

practice. Best practices from other places can be used to improve the efficiency, effectiveness and

collection of solid waste collection.

Land Utilization / Development: Due importance should be paid to beautification and the provision

of Green spaces in any kind of city infrastructure.

Presentation started off with a brief introduction of the study i.e. Preparation of City Development Plan

for Nasrullahganj, so as to bring all the stakeholders on the same platform. Based on the information

collected by various sources, the representative from IMaCS presented city profile which included

demographic and socio-economic profile of the town with spatial component. Demographic profile

dealt with population growth trend and its probable reasons, it also showed the population projections

and the methods used for these projections. The stakeholders agreed on this projected population.

Socio-economic profile comprised of key socio-economic parameters, major economic base and

major potentials and main issues. During this, stakeholders stated that few steps are needed to

increase employment opportunities and improve quality of life in the town to reduce the flow of people

moving out of the town. City profiling was followed by the findings of Sector Analysis which included

Water Supply, Sewerage and Sanitation, Storm Water Drainage, Solid Waste Management,

Transportation, Health, Education and other socio-cultural facilities for short, medium and long term,

i.e. 5 years, 10 years and 25 years respectively. Analysis comprised of existing status of service level

indicators, Demand-Supply Gaps for short , medium term and long term and key observations and

major issues.

After covering these sections, IMaCS team

turned the focus on “formulation of a vision for

Nasrullahganj.” This part of the presentation

included definition of vision, major concerns that

need to be addressed while developing a vision

and important aspects that define Nasrullahganj.

It was then followed by few sample Vision

Statements from IMaCS team. Formulation of

City vision and Sectoral goals were

supplemented by a Questionnaire survey.

questionnaire with the aim of obtaining

stakeholders‟ priorities for the city. The

Questionnaire survey was distributed in Hindi

language. Questionnaire survey included stakeholders‟ view of problems in the various sectors,

evaluation of city‟s growth and infrastructure and ranking of major issues and problems of the town,

as perceived by stakeholders.

Further, the stakeholders discussed the Sectoral strategies and vision in detail and share their

concerns and apprehensions on how should the city move forward towards a developmental path.

Amongst the major concerns is-„insufficient water supply‟ to the entire town, and hence there is a dire

need for augmentation of the system for which few potential sources were suggested by the

stakeholders. Further, they highlighted the need of employment opportunities – „in the region‟ , the

lack of which leads to the youths moving out to other cities. One of the important suggestions which

came up during consultations was - Since Nasrullahganj has a strong agricultural base and has a

regional crop market (Mandi), there is a scope for a few small scale agro based industries e.g. Soya

bean plants and Daal mills which can be thought upon to be established in the town. Stakeholders

also had concerns regarding the transportation and traffic aspects in the town. During the discussion,

it also came up that since a substantial percentage of population resides in slums in the town and

there should be a focused strategy to improve the quality of life of all the slum dwellers by providing

basic infrastructure to all of them. The stakeholders also had concerns on non-availability of parks,

playgrounds, community halls and not properly maintained ponds and it was suggested by them that

pond needs to be conserved with pond front development and thus creating a parks and other

recreational infrastructure near them. The Stakeholders also appreciated IMaCS‟ strategies and

sector goals in various infrastructure sectors and helped prioritizing the needs and the actions

required for the development of the town.
