• Project Research
2) Explain detailed planning system framework as per URDPFI

• Perspective Plan
Developing a vision for region is essential for policy framework. The vision stipulates direction
of growth and identification of resource potential and innovations to be adopted for the thrust
areas of development. It integrates broad level plan with the regional or development plan. A
realistic vision helps policy formulation and preparation of Perspective plan.
Perspective plan defines the vision and focuses on the spatio‐economic development policies,
strategies and programmes towards the intended development of the State. The Perspective Plan
of a State could include ‐ State Urbanisation Policy and State Land Utilisation Policy. The plan is
based on state resource mapping and analysis and assessment of potential resources. It addresses
the long-term policies regarding development of infrastructure and resource mobilisation. The
scope of this plan covers the social, economic, environmental and spatial development goals,
policies and priorities relating to the activities that have spatial and financial implications.
The purpose of a perspective plan is to provide an overall framework for preparation of detailed
plans. Therefore, it serves as a guide for urban local authorities and regional development
authorities in prepa and development plans.-
• Regional Plan
For planned and sustainable development of the human settlements, the regional planning
approach needs to be promoted. The planning regions could be classified under three heads:

5 | P a g e
(a) Administrative Regions, which can be District Regions or Metropolitan Regions as per the
recommendations of the 73rd & 74th Constitutional Amendment Act,
(b) Investment Regions, which can be new investment manufacturing zones, industrial and
freight corridors, special investment regions etc. They could be identified under National Acts/
policies,
(c) Special regions, which are sensitive in terms of environment/ socio economic or political
aspects.
States undertake Urban and Regional Planning under a variety of statutes such as the Town and
Country Planning Act, Municipal Laws, Urban/Metropolitan Planning/Development Act,
Improvement Trust Act, Industrial Development Act, Cantonment Board Act, Major Ports Act
etc. Often these laws are mutually exclusive. For instance, a Master Plan for a city would
exclude the lands covered under the Industrial Development Act, even though the lands would be
adjacent and the movement of the people and of the economic activities may be seamless. This
leads to sub‐optimal planning for land use as well as for infrastructure. It is, therefore, suggested
that the principles for spatial planning recommended by these guidelines are extended to all
areas, whether administered by the regular administrative system of the State Government or by
special laws such as for the ports, cantonments, railways, industrial zones etc. Furthermore, the
concepts of regional planning enunciated in these guidelines should be extended to all
contiguous areas that are socially, economically or functionally inter‐dependent. For instance, a
civilian town and the adjoining port/ cantonment/railway area should be covered by an umbrella
regional plan, even though the actual authority for administration of the individual piece of land
would continue to vest with the respective organisation, such as the Port Trust, Cantonment
Board, Railway Administration, etc. At times, even certain infrastructure could be planned and
developed in a regional set up. For instance, the road network/ mobility plan, or the drainage
plan could more efficiently be executed in a regional set up, rather than limiting to the
jurisdiction of the statutory authorities administering their respective lands
• Development Plan

6 | P a g e
Development plan is a statutory plan prepared (under relevant Act) within the framework of an
approved perspective plan. The objective of a development plan is to provide further necessary
details and intended actions in the form of strategies and physical proposals for various policies
given in the perspective plan and regional plan depending upon the economic and social needs
and aspiration of the people, available resources and priorities.
Proposals of a development plan should be definite, supported by an implementation strategy
and evaluation criteria. It makes known publicly the intention of the local authority regarding
physical, social and economic
development, the facilities and the services that are proposed to be provided in the near future.
The approved development plan allows the local authority to implement development of the land
area specified under the plan with the help of local area plans and projects.
The time frame of the existing Development Plans is for a period of 20 years by most of the
Urban Development Authorities/ULBs. For greenfield cities, a longer planning period can be
considered, aligned with the infrastructure life of 30 years.
These plans should be in phases of 5 years, to make it convenient for periodic reviews and
revision. This 5‐year cycle could also be usefully coincided with the State Five Year plans and
State Finance Commissions’ recommendations, though such an alignment need not be made
mandatory. The targets set for each phase can be assessed as the mid‐term review against the
achievements at the end of each phase. For Greenfield area, phasing could include a ‘Zero’
period for approvals, institutional set‐up, initial land polling and revisiting any strategy.
• Local Area Plan
The thrust of micro‐planning should shift to local area plans, which could encourage
decentralisation and improve implementation of Development Plans. In view of the 73rd and
74th CAA, planning decision and implementation of plans should be disaggregated in order to
bring the process closer to the local people. This would enhance the significance of Local Area
Plans.

7 | P a g e
Local area plans are to be prepared to guide the development or re‐development of land,
conservation of buildings and physical features, providing improvements in the physical layout,
making infrastructure and amenities available and managing the area to enhance health and
safety of the residents to support economic development as well as to enhance the quality of
living, environment, and for area specific regulatory parameters (see endnote) for the area
covered.
Local area plans need to specify the implementation details to comply with the Government
Policies, such as housing, hi‐tech townships, rainwater harvesting, energy, disaster management,
industrial and service sector investment, barrier‐free environment for the elderly and the
physically disabled, e‐Governance, tourism and other policies and facilitate formulation of
specific projects.
The plan should delineate reservation of land for roads and other public purposes, for
construction, reclamation etc. The plan should provide a framework for recovery of the
associated costs for public projects, by mechanisms like levy of betterment charges, charges on
additional development rights, and appropriate user charges.
• Special Purpose Plan
Special Purpose Plan can be prepared for specific development sectors depending on its
economic and environmental importance. Depending on the urgency of the need and priority of
the sector requiring special treatment and covering special aerial extent, Special Purpose Plans
for specific subjects can be prepared. However, these plans are to be within the framework of the
Regional Plan, Development Plan or Local Area Plan in the jurisdiction of the local authority
These plans may also emerge to serve the purpose of urban planning needs under different
Central and State Government grants, funding schemes (see endnote) /programmes with an aim
to:
• Encourage reforms and fast track planned development of cities, peri‐urban areas,
out‐growths, urban corridors, and others,
• Scale‐up delivery of civic amenities and provision of utilities with emphasis on
universal access to the urban poor,

8 | P a g e
• Special focus on urban renewal programme,
• Supplement to budget documents on ULBs,
• Sustainability, Environmental and heritage protection,
• Theme based development such as tourism, IT etc.
• Annual Plan
An Annual Plan would contain the details of the new and ongoing projects that the local
authority intends to implement during each financial year for necessary financial resource
mobilisation and monitoring its performance.
The annual plan is to be prepared by the local authority in each financial year to identify the new
projects, which the authority will undertake for implementation during the year, taking into
account the physical and fiscal performance of the preceding year, the priorities, the policies and
proposals contained in the approved Regional Plan, Development Plan or Local Area Plan.
The annual plan is intended to provide the resource requirement during the year and sources of
funds including those mobilised by the local authority, grants, aids and project/scheme funds by
the State and Central Governments. It is thus an important document for the resource
mobilisation as on the basis of this, the plan funds are to be allocated by the funding body. This
plan, therefore, serves as an important link with the budgetary process. Annual plans also
provide a mechanism to monitor progress of development plan and various projects.
• Project / Research
Projects are derived targets of the sequences of plans, which focus on items of execution,
investments, costing and returns. Conceived within the framework of the Perspective plan,
Development plan or any of the plans in the planning system, projects are the working layouts
with all supporting infrastructure and documents including cost, source of fund and recovery
providing all necessary details for execution including finance, development, administrative and
management.
These projects could be for any area, old or new, any activity or land use like residential,
commercial, industrial, recreational, educational or health related, or infrastructure development,

9 | P a g e
separately or in an integrated manner; for research and development in the field of planning, key
surveys to determine statistics, by any agency such as government, semi‐government, private or
even individual; or any agency prepared by town planners, architects, engineers as the case may
be, enjoying maximum freedom of expression in their design within the stipulations of
development promotion rules and other regulations as applicable. Research, specifically for
background studies preceding Perspective Plan, Regional Plan, Development Plan or even Local
Area Plan formulation may be undertaken as required by the State Government and local
authorities. Specifically, traffic surveys & related studies to collect current statistics are crucial
for making decisions in plan formulation.
3) Discuss inter-relationship between various plans.
Taking into account the entire planning process and also incorporating the suggested planning
system, the inter‐relationship of the different plans, directly or indirectly related to the land
development, at various levels ranging from national to a transitional urban area.
A Perspective Plan is formulation of development strategy generally at the State level or at the
regional level. This is detailed further in Regional Plan or Sub Regional Plan as the case may be
and in Development Plan. Perspective Plan should be a guiding document for planning. It could
also specify the regional planning authorities, urban/local area planning authorities, regulatory
authorities in the State and those responsible for preparing plan at various levels. The State
Urbanisation Plan shall give a stock of the urbanisation, planning status and especially of the
land suitability.
Regional Plans are to be prepared at district and metropolitan region level, and where economic
regions are formulated. This is the linkage for aggregation of plan proposals for consolidation
and integration of physical and fiscal planning efforts at District, Metropolitan area, State and
also at National level (in case of inter‐stateregions). As depicts, integration and disaggregation of
policies, resources in the planning system occurs at the level of Regional and Development Plan.
Development Plan and Mobility Plan need to be integrated to ensure transportation oriented
spatial planning. It needs to be emphasised here that urban plans should not be considered in
isolation from its region as each urban centre is part of a regional system of the settlement which
in turn play their respective roles in the process of development of the region as a whole.

10 | P a g e
The Development Plan shall provide policies and development proposals, which are detailed in
the local area plan to a greater scale. This interrelationship between planning system is the key to
implementation; hence Development Plan and Local Area Plan should be prepared in close
coordination. However, areas that require special plan within the framework of the development
plan or planning for specific purpose should be prepared only when the need arrives. The
funding schemes, such as JnNURM, RAY, have significant role in the new planning system,
where City Development Plan, Comprehensive Mobility Plan, City Sanitation Plan, Slum
Redevelopment Plan, Disaster Management Plan are to be formulated. Among all,
Comprehensive Mobility Plan should be prepared along with the Development Plan, while City
Sanitation Plan, City Development Plan should be prepared in line with the Development plan.
4) Describe in detail the urban planning concepts of the following
thinkers.
Ebenzer Howard
• The garden city movement is a method of urban planning that was initiated in 1898 by Sir
Ebenezer Howard in the United Kingdom. Garden cities were intended to be planned, self-

11 | P a g e
contained communities surrounded by "greenbelts", containing proportionate areas of
residences, industry and agriculture.
• Ideally his garden city would accommodate 32,000 people on a site of 6,000 acres (2,400
ha), planned on a concentric pattern with open spaces, public parks and six radial boulevards,
120 ft (37 m) wide, extending from the centre. The garden city would be self-sufficient and
when it reached full population, another garden city would be developed nearby. Howard
envisaged a cluster of several garden cities as satellites of a central city of 50,000 people,
linked by road and rail.
Patrick Geddes
• Sir Patrick Geddes Theory is self-explanatory. Geddes was thinking about the relation
between people and the places and their impacts on each other. He mentioned that people
may not just need to have a good shelter, but they also do have a need for food, work, and
some social life. They also need some entertainment. He founded the concept and mechanism
of the city survey and regional survey. The planning of the town exactly meant creating
organic relations among the people place and the work that parallels to a triad. This is very
similar to the Geddesan triad of environment, function and the organism.
Le Corbusie
• Le Corbusier's proposed cities could be anywhere: free of context, history, or tradition. He
had no patience for environments that had grown up independently over time. "A city should
be treated by its planner as a blank piece of paper, a clean table-cloth, upon which a single,
integrated composition is imposed". His new cities were supposed to be organized, serene,
forceful, airy, ordered. It was in this context that Le Corbusier was drawn to the USSR and
the developing countries and their powerful rulen. There, he hoped, the high-modernist social
engineer would not be crarnped as in the West, where a dispersion of power among many
competing groups and individuals made it possible to practice only what he called an
'orthopedic’.
• Le Corbusier developed a theory of city planning in the 19201s, which has been very
influential throughout the remainde of the century. The most striking element of Le
Corbusier's approach is its strict adherence to geornetric form, regularity and standardization.
In his description of 'A Conternporary City of Three Million Inhabitants' (Le Corbusier 1929)

12 | P a g e
he states: "The city of to-day is a dying thing because its planning is not in the proportion of
geometrical one fourth. The result of 25 a true geometrical lay-out is repetition, the result of
repetition is a standard. The perfect form." l6 The result of this vision was a proposa1 for a
large scale redeveloprnent of a large area of Paris, which was a city based on a strict grid
pattern with cells containing his (in) famous 'skyscrapers in the park' and large high-rise
developments within areas of open space creating a high population density in the center of
the city. At the very core of the space was the main station which was located at the
intersection of main North-South and East-West roads and is the center of the urban and
national rail links as well as the focal point for "aero-taxis." The road system itself was
segregated depending on the type of traffic, with freight running underground.
Charles Corea
• The concept of “Modernism” in 20th century Indian architectural development remains
difficult to grasp, as it was used within numerous stylistic developments, following the spirit
of the day. Starting with the efforts made by Europeans in the 1920s, the idea of “modern
architecture” as a revolutionary and innovative force started to make cautious headway in
India in the early 1930s. But at that time any Western thought and practice introduced as a
British import was seen as “modern”, as India had no uniform independent architectural
movement in the early 20th century. Ideas influenced by the Bauhaus and Le Corbusier and
then brought to India were modern, and the subsequent Art Deco movement, influenced by
both regional and exotic motifs, also counted as modern. Even neoclassical architecture was
still pronounced modern into the 1950s and even the 1960s. But Modernism in India was
more like an overall approach to life. It meant designing the world positively, improving it,
doing better than the required standard, being progressive and inventive, and these certainly
included great visionary minds like Tagore and Nehru. British architects in India felt
themselves to be modern, because they could work within an experimental field, almost
without constraints and regulations, with an unusual degree of freedom.

5) Explain the evolution in planning in physical form after the
industrial revolution.
The macro-inventions of the BIR induced significant changes in various elements of
social technology, more importantly in the way the work was organized, which led to the rise
and spread of the factory. The factory itself was the major novelty in the BIR which had an
enormous effect on the development of economies as a whole. But what was a factory? This
question is crucial because the attributes of the factory must be clearly distinguished from its
distinctive attribute. Of course, the factory shares many characteristics with other kinds of
organization but being interested in its uniqueness we have to determine that feature that
exclusively characterizes it (as opposed to previous organizational forms). This requires an
analysis of the emergence of the factory from the viewpoint of the theory of the firm.The
factory replaced the putting-out system that was based on the “family firm” craft-shop. The
craft-shop was run by a master craftsman with a couple of journeymen, apprentices and
family helpers. Under the putting-out system the merchant-entrepreneur owned the raw
material, goods in process, the equipment and tools, and outsourced the work at piece rates to
workers who usually worked at home.The factory was a new organizational form: it was a
firm, while the putting-out system was a market-like organization based on market contracts.
Many argue (e.g., Landes, 1969; Mokyr, 2002; Leijonhufvud, 1986) that the rise of the
factory was primarily or at least largely driven by the new technology. However, when
analyzing this process in the co-evolutionary framework it becomes clear that this does not
imply that technology should be seen as the unique factor inducing the rise of the factory.
Also during the Progressive era, which extended through the early 20th century, efforts to
improve the urban environment emerged from recognition of the need for recreation. Parks
were developed to provide visual relief and places for healthful play or relaxation. Later,
playgrounds were carved out in congested areas, and facilities for games and sports were
established not only for children but also for adults, whose workdays gradually
shortened.Perhaps the single most influential factor in shaping the physical form of the
contemporary city was transportation technology. The evolution of transport modes from foot
and horse to mechanized vehicles facilitated tremendous urban territorial expansion. Workers
were able to live far from their jobs, and goods could move quickly from point of production

14 | P a g e
to market. However, automobiles and buses rapidly congested the streets in the older parts of
cities. By threatening strangulation of traffic, they dramatized the need to establish new kinds
of orderly circulation systems.
6) Mention the general time span of industrial revolution and
thereafter discuss in detail its effect on town planning and
urbanization.
Industrial Revolution in India:
The Industrial Revolution was a period in history from approximately 1770 through 1850
which was characterized by a change in the manufacturing process through the use of machinery
and other innovations. This time period brought about a distinct working class which worked in
the factories of the wealthier class, often producing goods for relatively low pay in less than
suitable conditions. The central hub of the Industrial Revolution was Great Britain. However,
the Industrial Revolution had a significant effect on many other countries around the globe.
Great Britain's East India Company collected revenue and raw material from the
prosperous area of East India and sent the money and materials to Britain. In addition, after

15 | P a g e
goods were manufactured in Britain, these goods were brought to India to be sold. Thus, India
served to expand Britain's market for the sale of Britain's manufactured goods.
Industrialization has historically led to urbanization by creating economic growth and job
opportunities that draw people to cities. Urbanization typically begins when a factory or multiple
factories are established within a region, thus creating a high demand for factory labor. Other
businesses such as building manufacturers, retailers, and service providers then follow the
factories to meet the product demands of the workers. This creates even more jobs and demands
for housing, thus establishing an urban area.
In the modern era, manufacturing facilities like factories are often replaced by technology-
industry hubs. These technological hubs draw workers from other areas in the same way
factories used to, contributing to urbanization.
Throughout the history of human civilization, urbanization patterns have been the strongest
near large bodies of water. Initially, this was just to meet the water and food needs of large
populations. However, since the Industrial Revolution, the trend of urbanization along waterways
has continued because large bodies of water are needed to sustain industry. Not only do many
businesses require large quantities of water to manufacture products, but they also depend on
oceans and rivers for the transportation of goods. This is partially why 75% of the world’s largest
urban areas are in coastal regions.
As industrialization creates economic growth, the demand for the improved education and
public works agencies that are characteristic of urban areas increases. This demand occurs
because businesses looking for new technology to increase productivity requires an educated
workforce, and pleasant living conditions attract skilled workers to the area.
Once an area is industrialized, the process of urbanization continues for a much longer
period of time as the area goes through several phases of economic and social reform. Each city
has a progressively higher level of social, environmental and economic prosperity achieved
through increased education, government intervention, and social reform.

16 | P a g e
7) Explain the entire process of planning with neat and clean chart.
Planning Process
• The planning function of management is one of the most crucial ones. It involves setting the
goals of the company and then managing the resources to achieve such goals. As you can
imagine it is a systematic process involving eight well thought out steps. Let us take a look at
the planning process.
1) Recognizing Need for Action
• An important part of the planning process is to be aware of the business opportunities in the
firm’s external environment as well as within the firm. Once such opportunities get
recognized the managers can recognize the actions that need to be taken to realize them. A
realistic look must be taken at the prospect of these new opportunities and SWOT analysis
should be done.
• Say for example the government plans on promoting cottage industries in semi-urban areas.
A firm can look to explore this opportunity.
2) Setting Objectives
• This is the second and perhaps the most important step of the planning process. Here we
establish the objectives for the whole organization and also individual departments.
Organizational objectives provide a general direction, objectives of departments will be more
planned and detailed.
• Objectives can be long term and short term as well. They indicate the end result the company
wishes to achieve. So objectives will percolate down from the managers and will also guide
and push the employees in the correct direction.
3) Planning Premises
• Planning is always done keeping the future in mind, however, the future is always uncertain.
So in the function of management certain assumptions will have to be made. These
assumptions are the premises. Such assumptions are made in the form of forecasts, existing
plans, past policies, etc.

17 | P a g e
• These planning premises are also of two types – internal and external. External assumptions
deal with factors such as political environment, social environment, the advancement of
technology, competition, government policies, etc. Internal assumptions deal with policies,
availability of resources, quality of management, etc.
• These assumptions being made should be uniform across the organization. All managers
should be aware of these premises and should agree with them.
4) Identifying Alternatives
• The fourth step of the planning process is to identify the alternatives available to the
managers. There is no one way to achieve the objectives of the firm, there is a multitude of
choices. All of these alternative courses should be identified. There must be options available
to the manager.
• Maybe he chooses an innovative alternative hoping for more efficient results. If he does not
want to experiment, he will stick to the more routine course of action. The problem with this
step is not finding the alternatives but narrowing them down to a reasonable amount of
choices so all of them can be thoroughly evaluated.
5) Examining Alternate Course of Action
• The next step of the planning process is to evaluate and closely examine each of the
alternative plans. Every option will go through an examination where all their pros and cons
will be weighed. The alternative plans need to be evaluated in light of the organizational
objectives.
• For example, if it is a financial plan. Then it that case its risk-return evaluation will be done.
Detailed calculation and analysis are done to ensure that the plan is capable of achieving the
objectives in the best and most efficient manner possible.
6) Selecting the Alternative
• Finally, we reach the decision making stage of the planning process. Now the best and most
feasible plan will be chosen to be implemented. The ideal plan is the most profitable one with
the least amount of negative consequences and is also adaptable to dynamic situations.

18 | P a g e
• The choice is obviously based on scientific analysis and mathematical equations. But a
manager’s intuition and experience should also play a big part in this decision. Sometimes a
few different aspects of different plans are combined to come up with the one ideal plan.
7) Formulating Supporting Plan
• Once you have chosen the plan to be implemented, managers will have to come up with one
or more supporting plans. These secondary plans help with the implementation of the main
plan. For example, plans to hire more people, train personnel, expand the office etc are
supporting plans for the main plan of launching a new product. So all these secondary plans
are in fact part of the main plan.
8) Implementation of the Plan
• And finally, we come to the last step of the planning process, implementation of the plan.
This is when all the other functions of management come into play and the plan is put into
action to achieve the objectives of the organization. The tools required for such
implementation involve the types of plans- procedures, policies, budgets, rules, standards etc.
8) Short note – ‘Green Belt Concept’.
Design of Green Belt:
Project site area is covered with sheet rock. Developing the greenbelt in this project needs
scientific approach. As far as possible the following guidelines will be considered in green belt
development programme.
All around the site, a green belt of 3 m width will be developed as bio- fence and bio-defense. In
view of the presence of surface or subsurface rock, trenches up to 2m depth will be dug out all
around the site. They will be filled with top soil from the construction site up to a depth of 1.75m
leaving a gap on about 0.25m for effective watering and manuring.
Where it is not possible for a trench; bore holes of 9 inches diameter and 10 Ft (3m) depth will
be drilled, filled with a mixture of garden soil, vermicompost and sand in equal proportions.
Saplings grown in poly bags will be transplanted. Fast growing, evergreen or semi evergreen tree

19 | P a g e
saplings or cuttings will be planted to develop a thick green belt. Saplings are readily available
from the local nurseries and the plants are well adapted to the local agro climate.
Shrubs and trees will be planted in encircling rows around the project site. The short trees (<10
m height) will be planted in the first rows (towards plant side) of the green belt. The tall trees
(>10 m height) will be planted in the outer row (away from plant side).
Some of guidelines to be considered are:
· Planting of trees in each row will be in staggered orientation.
· In the front row, shrubs will be grown.
· Since the trunks of the tall trees are generally devoid of foliage, it will be useful to have
shrubs in front of the trees so as to give coverage to this portion.
· The spacing between the trees will be maintained slightly less than the normal spaces, so
that the trees may grow vertically and slightly increase the effective height of the green belt.
· Providing the Greenbelt more than 33% area of the total project area with various species.
Purpose of Greenbelt Development:
The purpose of a green belt around the industrial site is to capture the fugitive emissions,
attenuate the noise generated and improve the aesthetics.
For example, if the industry has been proposed in an area of about 1.2265 hectares that is 12265
sq. m. Out of 12265 sq. m of total land available about 4019.5 sq. m for built up area like
production blocks, raw material stores, finished goods godowns, utilities, R&D, QC,
administrative block and pollution control facilities. About 1550 Sq. m for Roads, 2395.5 Sq. m
for Vacant area and 4300 sq. m greenbelt area.
The proposed green belt at the. project site will form an effective barrier between the plant and
the surroundings. Open spaces, where tree plantation may not be possible, will be covered with
shrubs and grass to prevent erosion of topsoil. Adequate attention has been paid to plantation of
trees, their maintenance and protection based on the geology, soil condition and topography of
the site area.
Green belt will be developed around the plant site, whatever space is available around the
periphery of the plant will be planned to be utilized for green belt. Other open spaces within the
factory will be converted to green areas in the form of lawns or flowering plants.

20 | P a g e
A wide range of plant species wilt be planted in and around the premises to help capture the
fugitive emissions and noise levels from the plant premises. This wide range covers plants of
fast-growing type with thick canopy cover, perennial green nature, native origin and a large leaf
area index. A specialist in horticulture may be appointed to identify any other native species and
also supervise greenbelt development.
Advantage of Green Belt Development:
1. The biological activity of the particles at various locations necessarily vary because of
difference of pollutant source profiles. These variations are expressions of both quantitative
and qualitative differences, as for instance the relative amount of sulfuric acid mist, sulfates,
or other reactive substances in the particulate mix or the relative amounts of specific
carcinogenic compounds in the organic fraction of airborne particulate.
2. It, therefore, can be seen that the evaluation of biological activity ascribable to “particulate”
is complex and depends not only on the total quantity, size range and intrinsic physical or
chemical properties, but also on their chance for interaction in the polluted air. The
opportunity for variation in biological activity is enormous.
3. Stomata are microscopic pores on the underside (abaxial) of the leaf. These stomata allow the
plant leaves takes in Carbon Dioxide (C02) and lets out Oxygen (02), and also allows water
vapor out in the process of transpiration. As air passes through the stomata, most of the
airborne particles will not pass through the stomata but will rather land on the’ leafs outer
surface.
4. This is similar to a filter, where air is pulled through the filter by an air pump and the
airborne particles deposit on the filter surface. If this air flow is the major cause of particles
depositing on the leaf, the result will be that the concentration of particles on the abaxial
surface of the leaf will be higher than that of the top surface (adaxial) because the airflow
through the stomata will be pulling more particles onto the bottom surface.
5. There is a certain amount of force needed for particles to stick to a surface. This amount is
greater depending on the size of the particles. Because the airflow through the stomata is not
very powerful, only the smaller particles will stick to the bottom surface. The particles on the
top surface of the leaves will mainly be from the settling of dust. Because settled particles are
mostly larger ones, those found on the top surface will be mostly larger. Therefore, analysis

21 | P a g e
of the particle sizes on the leaves will show that particles on the tops of leaves are on
average, larger than those on the bottom of leaves.
6. Different types of leaves tend to have differences in several aspects of their surfaces. Some
types of leaves have greater surface rigidity or roughness than other leaves, which may affect
their stickiness or particle solubility. Stickier leaves would be better for collecting particles
because more particles would stick to their surface. Therefore, some types of leaves may be
better for use in this type of analysis than others.
7. It has been derived that trees can delimit the fine particulate pollution and have tremendous
potential for improved air quality with substantial cost savings. This study will help to
quantify the relative ability of individual tree species for removing fine particulates such as
PM25. The plantation of urban trees can be evaluated in terms of money saved vis-a-vis
expenditure involved in implantation of fine particulate strategies.
8. Trees can act as efficient biological filters, removing significant amounts of particulate
pollution from urban atmospheres. The study indicated that there has been significant
difference in interception of particulate matter (PM2.5) by different tree species.
9. It is recommended based on the studies that Green cover /areas of Highly Dust capturing
plant species should be developed around residential areas / industrial area, since dust
capturing plants species can act as efficient biological filters, removing significant amounts
of particulate pollution from urban atmospheres. The dust capturing phenomenon of plant
species is a cost-effective technology for reduction of particulate load in urban
agglomerations.
9) What are the major urban planning features in ancient cities?
There are number of towns in India having historical background spanning over 2000
years. Most of them developed as religious and cultural centers. Varanasi is one of the
important towns among these. Prayag (Allahabad), Pataliputra (Patna), are some other examples
of ancient towns in the country.
Major part of the Human life occupied by Hunting-Gathering stage. They lived for a short period
either for manufacture or subsistence purposes in natural caves or shelters. This was due to
extremely cold climatic conditions. Traces of their occupation are found in at such shelters or
near the source of raw materials Neolithic Stage- Beginning of Agriculture due to changing

22 | P a g e
Climatic conditions, population rise, etc. Evidence of habitation, emergence of proper structural
activities, change in the social organization, different types of structures including domestic,
craftmen’s area, public, religious, etc.
10)What are the features of medieval cities? Describe the nature of
Egyptian cities.
• The Individual House -
House styles and their interior arrangements varied from region to region: - town houses
of lower nobility and feudal lords are quite different. - houses often designed as fortresses and
accommodate several generations of one individual family (in Italy often have towers in
association). - in some towns, street blocks are organized in defensive units with individual walls
and defensive towers.
• The Market Place-
public, social life concentrated in city centres. - represented political character of a city as well as
citizens’ self- identification. - communal centres (i.e. belonging to community, expressive of it).
Emerge only during high middle ages (10th, 11th , 12th centuries). In earlier times the fortress,
abbey, or Bishops’ seat took up central positions.
• Civic Buildings-
Express pride and wealth of a town’s inhabitants and are concentrated around and near
marketplace(s).
• Town Hall -
always reserved prime site on main market square where their scale and size provides striking
contrast to other buildings in the area. - often positioned opposite town church (cathedral) or
even secular ruler’s castle. - symbol of autonomy, jurisdiction, wealth they range from proud and
magnificent town halls of Hanseatic Cities of northern Europe to small and poor town halls of
Southern Germany and Austria. - seat of town councils i.e. local government. Councils had
splendid seals: town corporation could act in its own right and bind itself legally by letter and
seal.
• Guild Hall - besides church, the most important representative of corporate life
Hospital - to care for old and poor - set up by holy orders
Medieval Collegial Cities - first specialised elements of university life.
Walls
• defend city, people, animals and property
• symbolise to outside world a town’s strength & political independence note:
destruction of urban wall means loss of freedom
• large proportion of public funds devoted to construct, maintain and extend urban

23 | P a g e
fortifications
• ring of wall does, naturally, constrict inhabitant’s freedom of movement and available
urban space; when town too crowded extensions built.
• construction derived from techniques of fortress architecture: shortest
circumference enclosing largest area i.e. circular and square fortifications preferred.
• smaller settlements cannot afford wall, therefore perimeter building ring doubles as
fortification.
Gates
• represent link with the outside world
• major roads lead from gates to other towns etc.
• control and customs point for people and goods
• strategically represent weakness in defensive system, therefore often flanked by towers.
Towers
• to defend walls and city and afford the outflanking of enemy (crossfire)
• reinforce walls structurally
• ballistically represent an advantage as can fire further away
11) Define the following terminologies:
• Rural area
Rural areas (also referred to as "the country," and/or "the countryside") are large and
isolated areas of a country, often with a low population. About 91 percent of the rural
population now earns salaried incomes, often in urban areas. The 10 percent who still
produce resources are generating 20 percent of the world’s coal, copper, and oil; 10 percent
of its wheat, 20 percent of its meat, and 50 percent of its corn. The efficiency these farms
are due in large part to the commercialization of the farming industry, and not single-family
operations.
• Zone
Different areas like residential, industrial, commercial are divided into different part
that part are called as zone.
• Urbanization
It is the process of increasing urban area in a geographical or administrative area.
• Master plan/ D.P
It is an over all, long range development plan.this term was used earlier as master plan of
the city. Now it is often referred as development plan of a city to give a comprehensive
meaning to the planning of city.

24 | P a g e
• Urban area
An urban area is an area with an increased density of human-created structures in
comparison to the areas surrounding it. Urban areas may be cities, towns or conurbations, but
the term is not commonly extended to rural settlements such as villages and hamlets. Urban
areas are created and further developed by the process of urbanization. Measuring the extent
of an urbanized area helps in analyzing population density and urban sprawl, and in
determining urban and rural populations.
• Block
A city block is the smallest area that is surrounded by streets. City blocks are the space
for buildings within the street pattern of a city and form the basic unit of a city's urban fabric.
• Urban Renewal
It is the process of improving the built environment by conservation, rehabilitation or
redevelopment.
• C.D.P.
A City Development Plan (CDP) is both a perspective and a vision for the
future development of a city. In which future forecast data and developments are provided.
• Town
A built-up area with a name, defined boundaries, and local government, that is larger than a village
and generally smaller than a city
• Urban Sprawl
It means spread of urban growth outwards from the town to the suburds.
• Land use
Landuse is the function of land – what it is used for. Land use varies from area to area. In
rural areas (countryside) land use can include forestry and farming. In urban areas (towns and
cities) land use could be housing or industry. Land use in urban areas in MEDCs varies from
land use in urban areas in LEDCs. Urban land use use models attempt to simplify the way
land is used in urban areas.
• City
A city is an urban area with a large population and a particular administrative, legal, or
historical status. Large industrialized cities generally have advanced systems for sanitation,
utilities, land usage, housing, and transportation and more. This close proximity greatly

25 | P a g e
facilitates interaction between people and firms, benefiting both parties in the process.
However, there is debate now whether the age of technology and instantaneous
communication with the use of the Internet are making cities obsolete.
• Region Urban
urban and regional planning is the process by which communities attempt to control and/or
design change and development in their physical environments.
• agglomeration
In the study of human settlements, an urban agglomeration is an extended city or town area
comprising the built-up area of a central place (usually a municipality) and any suburbs
linked by continuous urban area
• Slum
a squalid and overcrowded urban street or district inhabited by very poor people.

1) Describe urbanisation trend (population trend) as per URDPFI
guideline.
Globally, the more urbanised countries have higher levels of income and prosperity. Indian
States also exhibit the same trend. At the same time, urbanisation is also perceived to be
correlated with pollution, congestion and inferior quality of life. This would call for
developing a paradigm of urban development that would bring in higher levels of
prosperity, but without the concomitant negative effects. The URDPFI has attempted to develop
such a framework. Population trends: The Census 2011 and 2001 give useful indicators for the
trends in urbanisation in India. The three urban agglomerations, viz. Greater Mumbai,
Delhi and Kolkata, have crossed the 10 million mark in population, but with much reduced the
rate of growth. The Million Plus population cities have shown a growth of over 48 per cent, but
the number of such cities has gone up from 35 to 53 and five cities viz. Chennai, Bengaluru,
Hyderabad, Ahmedabad and Pune have attained more than 50 lakh population. The total
population in Class I cities (1 lakh +) constitutes 70% of the total urban population, while the
total population of million plus cities constitute 42.6% of the total urban population. What
is more interesting is that the cities with lower orders of population have exhibited higher
rates of growth of population.
-

28 | P a g e
The decadal population growth rate has, however, shown a decline from 21.5% during
1991‐2001 to 17.6% during 2001‐2011. The growth rate of urban population also seems to be
heading for stabilization as the decadal variation remained around 31.5% during the last two
decades. No statutory towns: The trend of urbanisation is reflected remarkably in the size of
towns that carry the growing urban population. As per Census‐2011, there are 7933 towns
including 4041 Statutory towns and 3892 Census towns. However, it is notable that the number
of statutory towns has increased marginally, by 6.4 per cent only, whereas the number of
non‐statutory towns has gone up by 186 per cent. Obviously, new towns are developing very
fast, but, being not notified as a town, these are kept out of the purview of planned spatial
development and become prone to haphazard growth. This would call for a serious effort to
introduce the principles of the URDPFI Guidelines to even non‐statutory towns, preferably in a
regional set up, wherein the spatial plans for such towns are prepared in conjunction with that
of the main cities, to which these are generally the satellite towns.
2) Short note - Urbanization scenario in India.
Urbanization the spatial concentration of people and economic activities arguably the
most important social transformation in the history of civilization since man changed from being
a nomadic hunter-gatherer and adopted a settled, subsistence agricultural way of life. While the
timing and speed of urbanization have varied and are varying between countries, regions, and
continents, the urbanization process has taken hold everywhere. It has proven to be an
unstoppable and a mostly desirable phenomenon. Cities are the foundation of modern
civilization; they are the engine room of economic growth and the centers of culture,
entertainment, innovation, education, knowledge, and political power. While the antecedents of
urbanization are long, contemporary urbanization is now predominantly a developing-country
phenomenon, centered largely in Asia. Urbanization in Asia involves around 44 million people
being added to the population of cities every year.
There are different elements with which urbanization can be understood or explained.
1. Urbanization can be explained in terms of different population thresholds in urban
areas.

29 | P a g e
2. Urbanization can be explained as the process of altering land uses to create and
develop urban centers.
3. Urbanization can be very broadly defined as a process of social and economic
change.
4. The most obvious definition of urbanization would be – A shift from less
intensive to more intensive uses of land and environment.
Urbanization and population
Urbanization can be explained by comparing the proportion of the population of a nation living
in urban places and rural places – that is the number of people residing in cities or other densely
settled areas and those living in villages or such rural areas. Urban population differs from rural
habitants in terms of diversity and age. By age, everywhere urban population are younger than
rural people, not because they have higher birth rate, that is because of migration. Cities attract
immigrants, and such immigrants tend to be young adults. A consequence is that cities have both
more young adults and more of the activities in which young adults engage.
INDIAN SCENARIO OF URBANIZATION
India's population stood at about 350 million at the time of country's Independence in
1947. By dodging the Malthusian checks, it grew at an unprecedented rate to reach the one
billion mark at the dawn of the new millennium. The Census of 2001 has put the population
figure provisionally at 1,027 million, even though it registered a significant reduction in the
growth rate of population. During the latter half of the twentieth century, India's population had
grown by nearly 650 million. The country is now the world’s second largest in population after
China. Only 11 percent of the land in country is free from inherent soil constraints.
The unit of classification in this regard is ‘town’ for urban areas and ‘village’ for rural areas.
Volume and Trend of Urbanization in India
India shares most characteristic features of urbanization in the developing
countries. Number of urban agglomeration /town has grown from 1827 in 1901 to 5161 in 2001.
Number of total population has increased from 23.84 crores in 1901 to 102.7 crores in 2001

30 | P a g e
whereas number. of population residing in urban areas has increased from 2.58 crores in 1901 to
28.53 crore in 2001. (table) This process of urbanization in India is shown in Fig. It reflects a
gradual increasing trend of urbanization. India is at acceleration stage of the process of
urbanization.
Basic Feature and Pattern of India's Urbanisation
Basic feature of urbanization in India can be highlighted as :
• Lopsided urbanization induces growth of class I cities
• Urbanisation occurs without industrialization and strong economic base
• Urbanisation is mainly a product of demographic explosion and poverty induced rural -
urban migration.
• Rapid urbanization leads to massive growth of slum followed by misery, poverty,
unemployment, exploitation, inequalities, degradation in the quality of urban life.
• Urbanisation occurs not due to urban pull but due to rural push.
• Poor quality of rural-urban migration leads to poor quality of urbanization (Bhagat,1992).
• Distress migration initiates urban decay.
3) Discuss following concept in detailed.
Inclusive planning
Inclusive planning means infusion of varying aspects, which lead to growth of the whole society
into development process, such as integrated trunk infrastructure, sustainable development,
poverty alleviation, decentralised decision making with special emphasis on women, elderly and
disabled friendly infrastructure and financial planning. These facets of development were not
traditionally recognised distinctly. Thus, for overall development of residents of human
settlements in India, inclusivity in planning must be fundamental feature.
Inclusive development in planning should focus on the following parameters; other such
features to promote inclusivity in development process can be identified based on the needs and
requirements of settlements and time9:
• Inclusive governance: entire system must function in a manner, which is seen to be fair
and inclusive.

31 | P a g e
• Inclusive Sustainable development: Development is a qualitative indicator rather than
quantitative. Development of human settlements should not be uni‐ directional
causing environmental degradation in the process. To direct growth on sustainable
manner Environmental Impact Assessment should be an essential part of development
plans and projects. ƒ Inclusive access to healthcare and education.
• For inclusive employment and regionally balanced growth, MSME should
be promoted through Plans.
• Developing capacities of Infrastructure: Infrastructure plays an important role in growth
and development of cities. It also promotes inclusivity in the society by means of
easy access to services.
• Agriculture has been identified as very important for promoting inclusivity.
Various Laws, Policies and Guidelines make provisions that agriculturally fertile/
multi‐cropped land be acquired as a last resort. Same provision should be followed while
planning for human settlements too.
• For holistic development of entire population, issues concerning the
people employed in the informal sector, besides women, elderly and the
disabled must be included in the entire process of plan preparation.
• The Plan should aim at creation of wealth and employment, in an inclusive and
sustainable manner.
• Water management including flood prevention, groundwater management, rainwater
harvesting, wastewater treatment, recycling and reuse to be encouraged.
• Public spaces are crucial for pedestrian movement and accessible public facilities have
significant impact on the quality of life.
ii. T.O.D.
The integration of land use with transport systems is called “Transit Oriented
Development”, which is essentially “any development, macro or micro that is focused
around a transit node, and facilitates complete ease of access to the transit facility thereby
inducing people to prefer to walk and use public transportation over personal modes of
transport”4. This entails planning for compact cities and reducing urban sprawl and
dependency on the large scale developments in the periphery which induce shift from

32 | P a g e
non‐motorized to motorized modes of travel. Approach to TOD highly depends on
establishing mixed land use zone as part of strategic densification. The policy includes:
• Network & Connectivity: Disperse high traffic volumes over multiple parallel streets
rather than concentrating traffic on major arterial roads. Create a fine network of streets
through urban design that provides choice of routes for all modes, reducing distances
between places as well as journey times.
• Last mile connectivity: Provide fast, convenient interchange options and spatial provision
for various modes of Intermediate Public Transport (IPT) at Multimodal Transit
Station for seamless travel. Provide multiple mode choices for last‐mile connectivity at
various prices and comfort levels. Also, if possible, eliminate the need of IPT by design
and engineering5. ƒ Pedestrian access: Provide the shortest direct route to pedestrians
and non‐ motorised modes to station as well as between building blocks.
• High Density, MixedIncome Development: Compact neighborhoods for shorter commutes
and equity for all sections of society. Mix of compatible use to promote 24 hour activity.
• Streetscape Design: Urban places should be designed for enjoyment, relaxation and equity.
Pedestrian and bicycle friendly designated space for all activities. Keeping in view the
prevention of heat island effects from wide and open streets, by proper street and
landscaping. ƒ Promote Place Making to Create a Sense of Place: Focus on promoting
liveability, quality and uniqueness of each space
• Direct Business to TOD Locations: Create transit services to regional job centers, focus
job creation investments in transit serviced locations.
• Public facilities at nodes of public transport: Plan for public facilities such as schools,
universities, sports facilities, stadiums, theatres and concert halls around nodes of public
transport.
• Function/Activities at nodes of public transport: Promote multi‐functional developments
around nodes that are otherwise deserted in the evening or at night. Plan a mix of
different types of users and inhabitants to create a lively and safe place.

33 | P a g e
4) Brief out the various Types of Migration.
(i) Immigration and Emigration:
When people from one country move permanently to another country, for example, if people
from India move to America then for America, it is termed as Immigration, whereas for India it
is termed as Emigration.
(ii) In-migration and Out-migration:
In-migration means migration occurring within an area only, while out-migration means
migration out of the area. Both types of migration are called internal migration occurring within
the country. Migration from Bihar to Bengal is in-migration for Bengal, while it is out- migration
for Bihar.
(iii) Gross and Net Migration:
During any time period, the total number of persons coming in the country and the total number
of people going out of the country for residing is called gross migration. The difference between
the total number of persons coming to reside in a country and going out of the country for
residing during any time period is termed as net migration.
(iv) Internal Migration and External Migration:
Internal migration means the movement of people in different states and regions within a country
from one place to another. On the other hand, external or international migration refers to the
movement of people from one country to another for permanent settlement.
5) Critically discuss the global scenario of urbanization.
Data on urban shares dating back to 1500 are available only for select countries, with an
estimated share at the global level. Using the timeline on the map (or by clicking on a country)
you can see how this share has changed over time.
Here we see clearly again that urbanization has largely been confined to the past 200 years. By
1800, still over 90 percent of the global (and country-level) population lived in rural areas.
Urbanization in the United States began to increase rapidly through the 19th century, reaching 40
percent by 1900.
By 1950 this reached 64%, and nearly 80% by 2000.

34 | P a g e
This rate of urbanization was, however, outpaced by Japan. Urban shares in Japan were low until
the 20th century.
By 1900, it had just surpassed 1-in-10. This increased rapidly, reaching over half of the
population by 1950; nearly 80 percent by 2000, and surpassing the USA to over 90 percent
today.
China and India had not dissimilar rates of urbanization until the late 1980s. By then, both had
around 1-in-4 living in urban areas. However, China’s rate of urbanization increased rapidly over
the 1990s, and 2000s. Over this 30-year period its urban share more than doubled to 58 percent.
India’s rise has continued to steadily rise to 1-in-3 (33 percent) today.
The recency of urbanization becomes even more pronounced when we look at trends for
countries and regions over even longer timescales – the past 10,000 years. This is shown in the
visualization here, derived from the work of the History Database of the Global Environment.
The past 50 years in particular have seen a rapid increase in rates of urbanization across the
world.
The UN World Urbanization Prospects provides estimates of urban shares across the world
through to 2050. These projections are shown in the chart — using the timeline you can watch
this change over time.
Across all countries urban shares are projected to increase in the coming decades, although at
varied rates. By 2050, it’s projected that 68 percent of the world’s population will live in urban
areas (an increase from 54 percent in 2016). In fact, by 2050 there are very few countries where
rural shares are expected to be higher than urban. These include several across Sub-Saharan
Africa, Asia, Pacific Island States, and Guyana in Latin America.
Why, when most countries are expected to be majority urban, does the global total just over two-
thirds? This seems low, but results from the fact that many of the world’s most populated
countries have comparably low urban shares (either just over half, or less). For example, India
(expected to be the world’s most populous country), is projected to have an urban share of only
53 percent in 2050.

35 | P a g e
The other map shown here provides a snapshot overview of how the world is expected to
continue to become more urbanized. It shows, for any given country, whether more people (the
majority) live in urban or rural areas.
Using the timeline feature and “play” button in the bottom-left of the chart, you can explore how
this has changed over time. In 1950, it was predominantly high-income countries across Europe,
the Americas, Australasia and Japan who were largely urban.
6) Why it is important to account for environmental parameters in
town planning? Discuss in detail.
In order to ensure safety and adequate conditions of life of the population, to limit the
negative impact of economic and other activities on the environment and to ensure the protection
and rational use of natural resources for the benefit of present and future generations, local
governments in the implementation of spatial planning should take environmental factors into
account. Therefore, speaking about environmental factors, we should pay attention to those
functional areas that are most dependent planning in relation to environmental factors or
themselves have an impact on the environment. These are production zones, zones of
engineering and transport infrastructures, residential and recreational areas. Production zone
designed to accommodate industrial, municipal and warehouse facilities. The production area
recommended to be placed on territories with a calm relief, providing convenient transport links
to places of settlement employed in the enterprise workers and external facilities and urban
transport. Planning should take into account the fact that in the production area included the
territory of sanitary protection zones of the objects themselves and in these sanitary protection
zones are not allowed in residential houses, preschool and educational institutions, and
healthcare institutions, leisure, recreational and sports facilities, horticultural, suburban and
gardening cooperatives and agricultural production. In addition to production areas should pay
attention to the zones of engineering and transport infrastructure, which is designed to
accommodate activities and facilities and communications of railway, road, river, Maritime, air
and pipeline transport, communications and engineering equipment, and also have in one way or
another impact on the environment. When planning must take into account compliance with the
required distances from such facilities to areas of residential, social, business and recreational

36 | P a g e
areas and other requirements to prevent harmful effects on the environment. It should be
understood that the objects of engineering and transport infrastructure, possessing the feature of a
direct harmful impact on the security of the population, must be located outside urban and rural
settlements
Also in planning land use should pay attention to the location of the city's recreational
areas. As these areas are intended for the organization of places of rest of the population you
need to consider that their territories are not permitted the construction and expansion of existing
industrial, communal and storage objects, which can have a negative impact on human health
and the environment. The exception may be only industrial, municipal and warehouse facilities,
which is directly related to the operation of facilities health and recreational purposes. Territorial
planning of the municipal district is accompanied by the preparation of necessary documentation
for territorial planning. documents of territorial planning; documents zoning; documentation on
planning the territory. In accordance with article 18 of the town planning Code of the Russian
Federation territorial planning documents of municipalities are: territorial planning schemes of
municipal districts; master plans of settlements; master plans of urban districts The General
plan of the municipal formation is main planning document that determines the prospects of
development of the city for a long time. It must be presented not only transport, architectural
planning, engineering, social and industrial aspects of city development and the ecological living
conditions of the population and prospects of preservation of the environment. With the
development of project planning documentation should consider the regulations and restrictions
on natural resources, the sanitary-hygienic norms and rules, and other regulations governing
environmental safety of living of population, natural features areas, the demographic features of
the territory, its historical and cultural value and other environmental factors, or otherwise
influencing the adoption of planning decisions. Such a collection of information about the area
required for the implementation of investment projects for the integrated development of the city.
Detailed preliminary analysis of the relevant documents allows to predict the possible risks at the
initial stage of implementation of the investment. These documents are very important for the
investor because on the basis of the relevant documents, management decisions that may affect
the interests of holders of land plots and capital construction objects.

37 | P a g e
7) Explain why it is necessary for a town planner to account for
climate and climate changes.
This guide takes the approach that climate change planning can, and should, augment and be
integrated and mainstreamed with existing city plans, planning processes and development
activities across all sectors. Climate change is simply another piece of information that should be
considered during every planning process, or when existing plans are modified and updated.
Fundamentally, good city planning practices are, by their nature, also climate smart planning
practices. This is because most climate change planning actions are consistent with planners’
responsibilities, including:
•Minimizing risk and improving land development activities that occur in or near flood, slope or
coastal hazard areas.
•Improving infrastructure for stormwater management, solid and liquid waste management,
access to safe drinking water, and the movement of goods and people.
•Protecting ecosystems and environmentally sensitive areas in and around towns and cities.
• Improving disaster risk reduction, including the improvement of response capacities for
disasters (particularly weather and climate-related events)
. •Supporting local economic development to reduce poverty and improve quality of life.
To help integrate climate change planning into current planning and urban development
initiatives, and make it easier for urban planners to take action on climate change, this guide is
organized around a four step strategic planning approach that incorporates innovative decision-
making tools with a participatory, local values-based methodology
8) Importance of topographic features in planning of a city.
Topographic maps are an important tool because they can represent the three-dimensional
landscape in two dimensions. A person who can read a topo map can find out the location of
peaks, valleys, ridges and saddles, among other land features. Topo maps can also show you
whether you will be traveling uphill or downhill on a road or trail.

38 | P a g e
Contour Lines
Elevations on a topo map are marked with contour lines, which connect points of equal
elevation. Imagine walking around a mountain in a circle, never going uphill and never going
downhill but staying at the same altitude. If you traced the path you walked, you would have a
contour line on a map. Contour lines are typically separated by 40 vertical feet, though you
should check the map you're using to be sure, and every fifth contour line is usually marked with
an actual elevation.
Land Features
The shape of the contour lines can tell you the shape of the landforms in a particular area. For
example, concentric circles show a peak, with the smallest circle marking the summit. Contour
lines that are close together indicate that the land is very steep, while contour lines that are
spread apart show that the land is relatively flat. Contour lines that encircle two peaks -- or two
sets of concentric circles -- can indicate the presence of a saddle, or gap, between the peaks.
USGS Maps
Topographic maps of the entire country have been produced by the U.S. Geological Survey,
which began surveying land to create such maps in 1879. Today, the USGS has created more
than 54,000 maps, which form the basis of most commercially available topographic maps used
today. USGS topo maps also show features that you would see on regular road maps, including
highways, dirt roads, towns and structures. The maps also show power lines, rivers, glaciers and
mines.
Orienting the Map
To match a topographic map to the landscape around you, which will allow you to identify
features such as mountains and rivers, it's important to make sure the map is oriented correctly.
You can quickly orient the map by using a compass and the "compass rose" found on the map,
which will have an arrow pointing north. Line up the compass needle, which points north, with
the arrow on the compass rose, turning the map if necessary.

9) Write a detailed note on trends and bases of development of
evolution of urban centres, cities, metro and mega cities.
Urbanisation will be central to India’s strategy of achieving faster and more inclusive
growth because agglomeration and densification of economic activ ities (and habitations) in
urban conglomerations stimulates economic efficiencies and provides more opportunities for
earning livelihoods. Thus urbanisation increases avenues for entrepreneurship and employment
compared to what is possible in dispersed rural areas. It, thereby, enables faster inclusion of more
people in the process of economic growth.
There is a concentration of the urban population in large cities and existing urban
agglomerations. As per census 2011, there are 53 million plus cities accounting for about 43 per
cent of India’s urban population. Class-I cities with population over 3 lakh accounted for about
56 per cent of the urban population and with a population ranging from 1 lakh to 3 lakh
accounted for another 14 per cent. This pattern of population concentration in large cities reflects
spatial polarisation of the employment opportunities. While it is expected that gains from an
agglomeration economy would lead to some polarisation of economic activities, there is a need
for developing an optimal portfolio of cities by drawing regional development plans and
promoting growth centres that are employment intensive and consistent with the economic
potential including the natural endowment of cities and regions. The availability of water to
provide for the needs of a large urban population must be a critical factor in plans for urban
development. Though the proportion of urban population concentrated in larger cities continue to
remain high, there is some evidence that other urban growth nodes are emerging underscoring
the need for adequate policy attention to smaller cities and peri-urban areas as against the narrow
focus of concentrating on large ‘Mission Cities’ as was followed in the Eleventh Plan period.
Census 2011 notes that the number of towns in India increased from 5,161 in 2001 to as many as
7935 in 2011.
Water supply: As per 2011 census 70.6 per cent of urban population is covered by individual
connections, compared with 91 per cent in China, 86 per cent in South Africa and 80 per cent in
Brazil. Duration of water supply in Indian cities ranges from 1 hour to 6 hours, compared with
24 hours in Brazil and China and 22 hours in Vietnam. Per capita supply of water in Indian cities

40 | P a g e
ranges from 37 lpcpd to 298 lpcpd for a limited duration, while Paris supplies 150 lpcpd
continuously and Mexico 171 lpcpd for 21 hours a day. Most Indian cities do not have metering
for residential water connections. Seventy per cent of water leakages occur from consumer
connections and due to malfunctioning of water meters. Non-revenue water (NRW) accounts for
50 per cent of water production compared with 5 per cent in Singapore. Sanitation: Even a partial
sewerage network is absent in 4861 cities and towns in India. Almost 50 per cent of households
in cities like Bangalore and Hyderabad do not have sewerage connections. As per 2011 census,
about 13 per cent of urban households do not have access to any form of latrine facility and
defecate in the open. Census 2011 also revealed that about 37 per cent of urban households are
connected with open drainage and another 18 per cent are not connected at all. Less than 20 per
cent of the road network is covered by storm water drains.
As per the report of the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) 2009, only about 20 per
cent sewage generated was treated before disposal in Class I cities and Class II towns (as per
2001 census). As per CPCB report brought out in 2005, about 1,15,000 MT of Municipal Solid
Waste is generated daily in the country. However, scientific disposal of the waste generated is
almost non-existent. Public transport: Public transport accounts for only 27 percent of urban
transport in India. Share of the public transport fleet has decreased from 11 percent in 1951 to
1.1 per cent in 2001. In 2009, only 20 out of 85 Indian cities with a population of 0.5 million had
bus services.
• Strengthen urban Governance:
The strategy for the Twelfth Five Year Plan will be focused on strengthening the five
enablers for urbanisation—governance, planning, financing, capacity building and innovation.
Despite the 74th Constitutional Amendment, which required States to transfer eighteen
functions to the ULBs, there is significant variation in devolution of functions, functionaries and
funds across the States. City mayors lack the powers and tenure to be truly accountable for
delivery of urban services. At the metropolitan level, Metropolitan Planning Committees (MPCs)
are yet to evolve and District Planning Committees must function not only in letter but in the
intended spirit too. In most States either State agencies or parastatals are in-charge of urban
service delivery rather than ULBs. This maze like structure of management and accountability
hampers good urban management.

41 | P a g e
A key weakness of India’s urbanisation efforts is that the agenda is being implemented
through disjointed projects/activities with inadequate or no planning for the urban area as a
whole. The ‘Master Plan’ approach generally focuses on only the core area of the city, has little
linkages to any financial and operating strategy and, in many cases has been used as a regulatory
tool instead of being a blueprint for the development of dynamic and smart cities.

9. Discuss transportation facility as a function of land use.
10. Explain the growth theory.
11. Write a short note: Elements of Town Structure.

43 | P a g e
1) Classify urban settlement as per URDPFI guidelines.
Settlement: A human settlement is defined as a place inhabited more or less permanently. The
houses may be designed or redesigned, buildings may be altered, functions may change but
settlement continues with time and space.
Urban settlement: The census of India, 1991 defines urban settlements as “All places which have
municipality, corporation, cantonment board or notified town area committee and have a
minimum population of 5000 persons, at least 75 per cent of male workers are engaged in non-
agricultural pursuits and a density of population of at least 400 persons per square kilometers are
urban.
Evolution of urban settlement: The first urban settlement to reach a population of one million
was the city of London by around. A.D. 1810. By 1982 approximately 175 cities in the world
had crossed the one million population mark. Presently 48 per cent of the world’s population
lives in urban settlements compared to only 3 per cent in the year 1800.
BASIS FOR CLASSIFICATION OF URBAN SETTLEMENTS
The definition of urban areas varies from one country to another. Some of the common bases of
classification are size of
1. population
2. occupational structure
3. administrative setup
1.POPULATION SIZE:In India the size of population, density of 400 persons per sq km and
share of non-agricultural workers are taken into consideration.
2.OCCUPATIONAL STRUCTURE:In India if more than 50 per cent of its economically
productive population is engaged in non-agricultural pursuits.
3.Administration Setup:For example, in India, a settlement of any size is classified as urban, if it
has a municipality, Cantonment Board or Notified Area Council.

44 | P a g e
Types of Urban Settlements:Depending on the size and the services available and functions
rendered, urban centers are designated as town, city, million city, conurbation, megalopolis.
Town (more than 5000ppl):The concept of ‘town’ can best be understood with reference to
‘village’. Population size is not the only criterion. Functional contrasts between towns and
villages may not always be clear cut, but specific functions such as, manufacturing, retail and
wholesale trade, and professional services exist in towns.
In 2001, places were designated as urban or towns on the following principles.
(a) All places with Municipality, Corporation, Cantonment Board, Sanitary Board, Notified Area
Committee etc.
(b) All other places which satisfy the following criteria:
i) A minimum population of 5,000 ;
ii) At least 75 per cent of the male working population being engaged in non-agricultural (and
allied) activity ;
iii) A density of population of at least 400 per square kilometer (or one thousand persons per
square mile)
Statutory towns:All places which have been notified under the Karnataka Municipal Act and
have local bodies like Municipal Corporation, City Municipal Council, Town Municipal Council,
Town Panchayat etc., irrespective of their demographic characteristics will be considered as
“urban units”.
Non-Statutory towns:Further, all rural units which satisfy the demographic criterion cited above
(in Definition of Town 2b) have been identified as urban units based on 2001 Census data in this
Directorate. For Census purposes these places are treated as urban units and are called “Non
Municipal Census Towns’.

45 | P a g e
• City (more than 1 lac):A city may be regarded as a leading town, which has outstripped its local
or regional rivals. In the words of Lewis Mumford, “the city is in fact the physical form of the
highest and most complex type of associative life”. Cities are much larger than towns and have a
greater number of economic functions. They tend to have transport terminals, major financial
institutions and regional administrative offices. When the population crosses the one million
mark it is designated as a million city.
• Conurbation (pop of 2 or more cities combined):The term conurbation was coined by Patrick
Geddes in 1915 and applied to a large area of urban development that resulted from the merging
of originally separate towns or cities. Greater London, Manchester, Chicago and Tokyo are
examples.
• Megalopolis (more than 10 million):This Greek word meaning “great city”, was popularized by
Jean Gottman (1957) and signifies ‘super- metropolitan’ region extending, as union of
conurbations. The urban landscape stretching from Boston in the north to south of Washington in
U.S.A. is the best known example of a megalopolis.
• Million City (more than 10 lacs):The number of million cities in the world has been increasing
as never before. London reached the million mark in 1800, followed by Paris in 1850, New York
in 1860, and by 1950 there were around 80 such cities. The rate of increase in the number of
million cities has been three-fold in every three decades – around 160 in 1975 to around 438 in
200.
2) Discuss recommended decentralised plan approval process to
avoid delay in implementation.
Decentralisation of the planning process has acquired considerable significance with
the passage of the 73rd and 74 th Constitutional Amendment Acts. Decentralisation
through the involvement of local level representative institutions in the formulation of
plans for development as well as their implementation is being advocated in the
interest of efficient utilisation of resources and for ensuring a more equitable sharing
of benefits from development. Decentralisation of the planning process is basically an
exercise in multi-level planning. Although multi-level planning and the problems
connected with it have only recently been subjected to serious examination in India,

46 | P a g e
the idea of decentralisation as such is not new to Indian planning. Since 1950-51,
when the Planning Commission was established and the first five year plan was
launched, the importance of carrying the planning process to lower levels such as the
state, district, block, village, etc. has been emphasised. The reasons for the stress on
decentralisation are various. In the first place, the Indian planners emphasised
decentralised for the obvious reasons that in a democratic framework, unless
planning is carried to lower levels, that is to say subnational levels, the process will
not be effective. Secondly, the planners also realised that the participation of the
people in the planning process is essential if the process is to succeed and the
participation of the people can be achieved only if planning is carried to the lower sub-
national levels.
The history of the attempts made in India to decentralise the planning process are of
considerable importance. The First Five Year Plan was as clear and eloquent as any
official document on the subject of decentralisation. The following lines from the first
plan document bear this out: "A democracy working for social ends has to base itself
on the willing assent of the people and not the coercive power of the state…. Their
own views about their needs and difficulties and the correct solutions must be elicited
and given the fullest weight in making the plans, in the execution which they will be
called upon to assist…. Means have, therefore, to be devised to bring the people into
association both at the stage of formulation of the plans and in their implementation
from stage to stage".
Planning Implications :
These constitutional provisions mark a significant departure in the style and
substance of planning. Style refers to the democratic and participatory character of
planning. Substance refers to the programme and project components informed by
the goals of growth, equity, stability and sustainability. It has infected a new
conception of a multi level planning process which cuts across the three layers of the
local level and integrates into the state plan. In the new context, such planning is both
a democratic and technical exercise as well as a management and negotiation
process to obtain the maximum benefits of development for the local population.

47 | P a g e
3) Short note – Classification of towns.
Classification of towns can be done on a number of basis and different countries and
organizations use different classification of towns. It can be on basis of income level, education
level, according to per capita income etc.
Classification of Towns as per census
All places with a municipality, corporation, cantonment board or notified town area committee,
etc.
All other places which satisfied the following criteria:
i. A minimum population of 5,000;
ii. At least 75 per cent of the male main working population engaged in non-agricultural pursuits
iii. A density of population of at least 400 persons per sq. km.
The first category of urban units is known as Statutory Towns. These towns are notified under
law by the concerned State/UT Government and have local bodies like municipal corporations,
municipalities, municipal committees, etc., irrespective of their demographic characteristics as
reckoned on 31st December 2009. Examples: Vadodara (M Corp.), Shimla (M Corp.) etc.
The second category of Towns (as in item 2 above) is known as Census Town. These were
identified on the basis of Census 2001 data.
The Census of India has classified towns into six categories on the basis of their population:
I) Class 1 towns with more than 1, 00,000 population,
2) Class II towns with 50,000 to 99,999 population,
3) Class III towns with 20,000 to 49,999 population,
4) Class IV towns with 10,000 to 19,999 population,
5) Class V towns with 5000 to 9,999 population
6) Class VI towns with less than 5,000 population.
Urban Agglomeration (UA): An urban agglomeration is a continuous urban spread constituting a
town and its adjoining outgrowths (OGs), or two or more physically contiguous towns together
with or without outgrowths of such towns. An Urban Agglomeration must consist of at least a
statutory town and its total population (i.e. all the constituents put together) should not be less
than 20,000 as per the 2001 Census.

48 | P a g e
In varying local conditions, there were similar other combinations which have been treated as
urban agglomerations satisfying the basic condition of contiguity.
Related: Land Use Planning in India
Examples: Greater Mumbai UA, Delhi UA, etc.
Out Growths (OG): An Outgrowth (OG) is a viable unit such as a village or a hamlet or an
enumeration block made up of such village or hamlet and clearly identifiable in terms of its
boundaries and location. Some of the examples are railway colony, university campus, port area,
military camps, etc., which have come up near a statutory town outside its statutory limits but
within the revenue limits of a village or villages contiguous to the town.
Examples: Central Railway Colony (OG), Triveni Nagar (N.E.C.S.W.) (OG), etc. Each such
town together with its outgrowth(s) is treated as an integrated urban area and is designated as an
‘urban agglomeration’.
Number of UAs/Towns and Out Growths (OGs):
At the Census 2011 there are 7,935 towns in the country. The number of towns has increased by
2,774 since last Census. Many of these towns are part of UAs and the rest are independent towns.
The total number of Urban Agglomerations/Towns, which constitutes the urban frame, is 6166 in
the country.
The following is the list of most populous cities in India. The population statistics indicated in
this article are for the year 2011. The list does not indicate the population of the urban
agglomerations.
4) What is land use? Discuss basic land use pattern for a city.
• Land use:
If you've ever played a settlement building game like SimCity, you'll know all about land use.
Land use is the function or functions that humans apply to the land available to them. The study
of land use is the study of how the land is managed, including how the natural world is adapted
to human needs.
• Importance of land use:
Land use might not seem like the most exciting topic, but it's important to study. First, it tells us
a great deal about the governments making the decisions for land use and the priorities they hold.

49 | P a g e
Also, the better we understand the way the world has been adapted to human needs, and in what
patterns, the more we can predict future trends. And, the better we can predict the future of land
use, the more we can prepare for negative impacts.
• Basic land use pattern for a city:
Linear Urban Form:
• Ribbon or Strip development characterized by concentration of development along both
sides of major transportation routes such as roads, navigable rivers or other form of
transport network generally start on a one-lot-deep into a grid system. also resembles
what Kevin Lynch refers to as the Urban Star which is characterized by a strong urban
core with secondary centers of moderate densities, distributed along main radials roads.
Multi-Nodal Urban Form:
• re-directs development away from the urban core or city center toward identified urban
growth areas or nodes.
• approximates Lynch’s Galaxy form, which is characterized by clusters of development
with each cluster having its own specialization.
• the major center provides specialized facilities and services to its nodes and acts as it
external linkage to other centers of the city or municipality. The nodes support the major
center as its captive market while providing neighborhood facilities and services to its
area of influence.
Concentric Urban Form:
• this form reflects an outward expansion of urban development from the city center/core
induced by the construction of new circumferential and radial roads.
• the form pattern matches the Core City of Kevin Lynch has the unique characteristic of
concentrating development into one continuous body originating from the center or core.
• aiming to maximize land use in the Poblacion or city center to provide more open space
outside, this urban form redirects future development in and around the Poblacion/city
center, extending to the adjoining barangays or barrios. As a result, the direction of
growth enlarges the urban core.

50 | P a g e
Grid Form:
• this system is made up of rectangular blocks defined by parallel and intersecting streets.
The simplicity of this layout provides accessibility of plots and/or structures, but conflict
or movement could arise due to numerous intersections.
5) Explain advantages of grid iron pattern of town over organic
growth pattern.
Benefits of the Grid iron pattern over organic growth pattern:
1) Walkable: With the proper block size, the grid provides an inherently walkable street
network.
2) Navigable: Never ask for directions again.
3) Adaptable: Land uses change constantly. With blocks and lots, a new land use can simply
plug-in to the existing infrastructure.
4) Historical: The grid is a fundamental part of our American heritage.
5) Economical: A rectangular block allows you to do the most with the least. The exact same
block in Manhattan has accommodated everything from a farm to an office skyscraper. The
exact same piece of dirt
6) Sustainable: A rectangular block allows you to do the most with the least. The exact same
block in Manhattan has accommodated everything from a farm to an office skyscraper. The
exact same piece of dirt.
7) Orthogonal: We live in rectangular places / We park in rectangular spaces. The orthogonal
grid—it thrives / Due to the way that we live our lives.
6) Explain – Urban Morphology.
• Urban morphology is the study of the form of human settlements and the process of their
formation and transformation. The study seeks to understand the spatial structure and
character of a metropolitan area, city, town or village by examining the patterns of its
component parts and the ownership or control and occupation. Typically, analysis of physical
form focuses on street pattern, lot (or, in the UK, plot) pattern and building pattern,
sometimes referred to collectively as urban grain. Analysis of specific settlements is usually

51 | P a g e
undertaken using cartographic sources and the process of development is deduced from
comparison of historic maps.
• Special attention is given to how the physical form of a city changes over time and to how
different cities compare to each other. Another significant part of this subfield deals with the
study of the social forms which are expressed in the physical layout of a city, and,
conversely, how physical form produces or reproduces various social forms.
• The essence of the idea of morphology was initially expressed in the writings of the great
poet and philosopher Goethe (1790). However, the term as such was first used in bioscience.
Recently it is being increasingly used in geography, geology, philology and other subject
areas. In geography, urban morphology as a particular field of study owes its origins to Lewis
Mumford, James Vance and Sam Bass Warner. Peter Hall and Michael Batty of the UK and
Serge Salat, France, are also central figures.
• Urban morphology is considered as the study of urban tissue, or fabric, as a means of
discerning the environmental level normally associated with urban design. Tissue comprises
coherent neighborhood morphology (open spaces, building) and functions (human activity).
Neighborhoods exhibit recognizable patterns in the ordering of buildings, spaces and
functions (themes), variations within which nevertheless conform to an organizing set of
principles. This approach challenges the common perception of unplanned environments as
chaotic or vaguely organic through understanding the structures and processes embedded in
urbanisation. Complexity science has provided further explanations showing how urban
structures emerge from the uncoordinated action of multiple individuals in highly regular
ways. Amongst other things this is associated with permanent energy and material flows to
maintain these structures.
• Urban morphology deals with the physical layout and internal functional structure (functional
morphology) of an urban area. Here ‘physical layout’ means ‘urban structure’ and may be
termed as internal geography of the city. Similarly functional morphology may be
interchanged with urban land use.
• Various theories have been advanced by urban geographers to analyse the morphology of
urban centers. Of these mention may be made of the Concentric Zone Theory by E.W.
Burgess (1923), the Sector Theory by Homer Hoy t (1939), and the Multiple Nuclei Theory
