for Preparation
of Master Plan
DEMOGRAPHY-
Global & Indian
Population Scenario-World
 World population recorded:

 10 m plus- nil (1951)- 3 (2011) -7 (2031)-9 (2051)
 Greater Mumbai with 18.37 million - most populous city (2011).
 Urban India first time added more persons(91m) as compared
to Rural India(90m)
 massive shift of population -not simply a shift of demographics
 Shift places cities and towns at centre of India’s development
trajectory.
 Increased population requires
 More housing,
 More educational/ healthcare/ other institutions
 More commercial space
 More transportation– More Resources
Population Distribution- India-2011
Urban Pop. Distribution(2011)377 m (31.1 %)- 7935

Urbanization-issues
 Despite distinct advantages , Urban
centers:
 Poorly managed and governed.
 Consume large energy
 Unable to meet challenges of urban dynamism
 Showcase haphazard /Unplanned pattern of development.
 Promoters of enormous growth of slums
 Promoters of Poor quality of life
 Failure to meet basic needs of
1. Shelter
2. Services
3. Land ,Water, Sanitation
• Population , Poverty , Pollution and traffic greatest
threat and challenge to Indian Cities.
• Indian Urbanization is rightly called :
 Urbanization of Population
 Urbanization of Poverty
 Urbanization of Pollution
 Urbanization-issues
• Cities profoundly :

•alter quality of life

• impact local and global environment
• responsible for 70% of global energy consumption
• green house gas emissions-- majority coming from
buildings / transportation
•Cities fast emerging as GREY CITIES, way they:
Create high energy demand and Consume Energy
 Consume resources
 Consume Land
 Increase travel demand
Create heat islands
Generate waste
Create ecological problems
Destroy natural habitat
Add to water pollution
 impact environment
Lower down quality of life
Urban Planning and Legal Framework
• In this era of rapid and massive urbanization:
 urban land development and
 urban development process
emerged critical areas of major concerns to all governments.
• Planning/ Management of urban settlements have major
implications on:
 economic development,
 social change,
 Environmental sustainability,
 operational efficiency of any society and
 Welfare of the community
• At the root of such development / administration are
- human beings and their basic requirements of living, working, cobs
and travel
- land / its allocation / planning and management involving
-- Sub-division and
--- Use of Land
• Land-use planning emerges most powerful element in the process
of urban development.
 Master Plan-Need
 For promoting, guiding and rationalizing the
future growth and development of urban
centers.
 Promoting planned development
 Endorsing growth in the desired direction,
 --promote economic development,

 -- providing basic/essential amenities to
people.
 - an appropriate/ scientific tool for promoting
systematic & planned growth of the city
 Master Plan- Objectives

 MASTER PLANS - Limitations
Lengthy, cumbersome time consuming process--Requires lot of
time
Requires large financial allocation
Rigid- lacks flexibility
Based on only defining land use mechanism
Stresses only physical aspects- ignores large social, economic,
environmental issues- emphasizes plan preparation
Lack of availability of city centric accurate data
Prepared mostly using secondary data; Only few surveys are done
Absence of stakeholders participation
Lack of transparency
Lack of trained manpower/ technology
Inaccurate base plan/ existing land use plan
Mismatch between plan proposals and ground realities
MASTER PLANS - Limitations
Large number of disputes in plan interpretation
Lack of involvement of specialized agencies/expertise
Plan preparation and plan implementation divorced
Freezes city/ Land use for 20 long years
Unable to meet emerging urban challenges
Unable to address urban dynamism
Emerged as the major road block in planned development
Leads to emergence of Slums/ haphazard development
Does not address the needs of the informal sector- document of
exclusion--Emerged as elitist in nature
Major source of corruption/ manipulation
CHANGING CONTEXT OF MASTER PLANS
Need to make Master Plan a better Master Plan
by:
-- changing its intent, content, approach and
philosophy
-- making it people/city centric
-- involving participatory approach
-- bringing flexibility
-- preparing it in a short time,
--structure defined through
 road network,
 infrastructure network and
CHANGING CONTEXT OF MASTER PLANS
Master Plan to be promoter of Planned development rather than
controller of development
Master plan to make city compact
 Master plans prepared with energy efficiency as the focus
To reduce carbon footprints of city
Promoting mixed landuse rather than pure land use planning
Promoting Green Transportation-- pedestrianisation, cycling,
public transport as the-- preferred mode of transportation
Promoting transit oriented development (TOD) to minimise
travel
Minimising use of Agricultural land
 minimum land under urbanization
Promote 24x7 use of land
CHANGING CONTEXT OF MASTER PLANS
Promote self-sufficiency in day to day needs
Promote Decentralization
Provide open spaces on defined norms
Plan city on well defined norms and planning
parameters
Promote water sufficiency
Promote reduce, recycle and reuse in city
Make informal sector integral part of planning process
Promoting Green Energy in city- Solar, Wind, Bio-mass,
Geo-thermal enrgy
Preparing Master Plan using nature as the basis- SUN,
SPACE, VERDURE
