City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

1. PROJECT BACKGROUND
1.1

INT ROD UC TIO N

The aim of this exercise is to support various Cities/Urban Local Bodies of Madhya
Pradesh in preparing the City Development Plan (CDP) for their respective cities. The CDP
should provide a comprehensive medium term strategy (Vision 2035) as well as a City
Investment Plan (CIP), based on which the concerned ULB will be able to access funds
under GoI/GoMP schemes as well as from own and other sources based on priority actions
and projects identified in the CDP. The document should also provide Financial Operating
Plan (FOP) to direct the ULBs for mobilizing various financial resources to implement the
identified projects.
As one of the initiatives of Inclusive Urban Planning, the State Government of Madhya
Pradesh had started the programme of Preparation of City Development Plans (CDPs). After
the successful completion of the 1st Phase, 259 new cities have been taken up for the 2nd
phase of CDPs. The CDPs will indicate policies, programmes, strategies and financing plans
thereby helping the cities to achieve sustainable development path. This project titled City
Development Plan for Baroda, Madhya Pradesh has been awarded to MSV International
Inc as consultant.

1.2

AI M AN D O BJEC TI VES O F T HE ST UDY

As outlined in the ToR, the aim of the study is to prepare a City Development Plan, which will
generate and provide a strategic framework for city development actions in the medium term,
guided by a shared and collective vision, and aimed at delivering sustainable economic
growth and poverty reduction.
Following are the basic steps in preparation of a CDP:

In-depth Analysis of Existing Situation


Development of Vision and Goals for the City
Formulation of City Development Strategies including city governance and required
reforms
Preparation of Action Plan with identified projects under each sector of infrastructure
Preparation of City Investment Plan and Financial operating plan.

The CDP will also include a Financial Operating Plan (FOP), to direct the ULBs for mobilizing
various financial resources to implement the identified projects. Clearly, the CDP is a blueprint of an informed exercise, owned by the citizens and the city government, i.e., ULB,
supported by the consultants engaged.
Within the framework of CDP the following objectives will be addressed:

The CDP will scale up existing urban development and poverty alleviation
schemes within a comprehensive and coherent strategic planning framework in order
to ensure optimal benefit from available resources for the citizens of the ULBs.
The CDP should aim to catalyse new thinking and provoke debate through a
consultative stakeholder driven process. The vision and strategic thrusts of the
CDP will be built around the lessons and findings of a comprehensive and
rigorous stakeholder consultation and documentation process.

Page 10

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

1.3

It is expected that the CDP will serve the requirements of the UIDSSMT and
IHSDP programmes as well as JNNURM and other development schemes.
The CDP will generate specific priority actions and projects that can be the basis for
mobilizing funding from diverse sources

COVER AG E O F T H E STUD Y ARE A

CDP is prepared as per the JNNURM toolkit, UADD and CMAMP guidelines keeping in view
the mission objectives and output. The JNNURM has provided the opportunity to the citizens
of Baroda town to achieve a better urban life style, better environment, physical and social
infrastructure, basic services for urban poor. Initiatives under JNNURM will provide a
platform for the city to achieve the long term mission.The City Development Plan will be
formulated for the area of about 3.00 sq. Km. The area comprises of Baroda Nagar Parishad
(BNP) divided into 15 Wards.

1.4

DET AI LE D PR OJE CT T AS KS

The study would involve following initiatives:

Kick Off Workshop to sensitize the stakeholders about the CDP initiative
Familiarization with the city and its status in terms of growth, economic development,
institutional framework, infrastructure, urban basic services etc.
Identification of data required for the study
Mapping of data sources and collection of data
Identification of stakeholder agencies & their financial assessment
Understanding the perception and priorities for city development through rigorous
discussions with stakeholder agencies
In-depth analysis of secondary data collected
Formulation of strategies and vision for city development in consultation with various
stakeholder agencies
Preparation of CDP along with preliminary financial operating plan and project cash
flows for various projects identified
Preparation of CDP will not only follow the guidelines of JNNURM but will also take into
account the requirement of other urban development initiatives.

UADD KICK-OFF WORKSHOP INSTRUCTIONS TO CONSULTANTS

The Urban Administration and Development Department had conducted a state level
Orientation Workshop for selected consultants for preparation of City Development Plans.
In the workshop, the consultants were apprised of the process and key thrust areas for the
towns of Madhya Pradesh. Keeping in view the learnings from the workshop, the consultant
has drafted an approach and detailed methodology for preparation of the City Development
Plan. The same has been elaborated in the following sections.

PROJEC T FO CU S AN D BE NEF ITS

The city is expected


to
achieve
the
modern transparent
budgeting
and
accounting.
All
residents should have access to a basic level of urban services including the urban poor. Egovernance applications should have been introduced in core functions of ULBs. The city
should also promote social development and improve systems of governance and
empowerment in poor urban communities.

1.6

AP PRO AC H

The entire plan development will adopt decentralized planning process.


The city development plan here is basically to provide facilities and create a systematic
urban growth, which is essentially a public domain. It is perceived that involvement of both
public and private agencies including the local people for decision making and responsibility
allotment would bring about a more pragmatic plan.
The CDP is in adherence to the guidelines framed by the JNNURM toolkit, UADD and
CMAMP guidelines. This analysis of the existing situation, covering the demographic,
economic, financial, infrastructure, physical, environmental and institutional aspects has
been done to develop and frame a vision of the city. The sector strategies, goal, and project
proposals incorporate and compliment existing plans and policies of both State and National
that are in line with the CDP framework.
During the plan preparation process, participation of stakeholders (both primary and
secondary) and interest groups will also be incorporated. The purpose is to generate new
thinking and provoke debate over issues that are in line with CDP and are worth considering.
Involving responsible agencies and government bodies during planning process also would
facilitate active participation by the groups/ stakeholders bringing specific solutions and
effective development plan. The lessons learnt and findings of the comprehensive and
rigorous stakeholder consultations would provide base for further formulation of the projects
and proposals. The CDP envisages being a comprehensive plan which is expected to serve
as a strategic framework for other plans and development programs. It engenders specific
priority actions for fulfilling the intended objectives. It is intended to use periodic review
sessions to guide the development of CDP to achieve a fair and logical development plan.
The approach for the assignment is:
To use participatory approach, where in stakeholder consultations and workshops
would be carried out across a wide section of society. Participatory approach is taking
the perspective of the local people and other stakeholders into consideration and giving them
a greater say in planning and decision making of the citys development process. Local
people, community organizations, NGOs, Government departments and other stakeholders
shall prioritize the citys requirements sector wise. Stakeholders shall provide feedback on
the problems & issues faced by them at local level. Their views shall also be sought on the
citys present development scenario. Further, they shall give their sector wise priorities for
social and physical infrastructure requirements.
Following methods shall be used to ensure participation of all sections of society:

citys economic base. Hence travel agents, tourist guides, hotels and the cantonment board
have been specifically selected for consultations.
Considering the goal of achieving environmental & economic sustainability and CDPs
special focus on slum poverty, large sample size has been considered for the slum pockets.

1.7

To counter the problems and issues faced as well as keeping in mind the current state of
development of the city, strategies shall be derived and an action plan shall be
presented to the key stakeholder agencies through consultation workshops, further their
consent and ownership for the plan would be sought. Their comments would be
incorporated to finalize the vision document and plan.
To design the city development plan for the horizon period of 25 years.
To identify interventions to eliminate or mitigate the impacts of the critical/ problem areas
of the city. The focus will be pivoted to slum up-gradation, environmental sustainability,
urban transport, heritage, tourism and economy.
To up-scale the existing urban development projects in the city.
To maximize utilization of inherent potential and develop infrastructure and economy to
attract private investment. This will be achieved through detailed sector analysis.
To develop initiatives in line with the urban development policies of the Centre and the
State Government.
To achieve the underlining principle of the 74th Constitutional Amendment Act and the
functions outlined in the 12th Schedule.
To identify intervention areas to build up the financial strength of the Citys institutional

Slum pockets and Residential areas shall be analyzed using appropriate statistical
techniques. The data collected would vary as per location and similarly priorities would also
vary thus keeping this in consideration the Weighted Index method would be adopted. To
obtain priority based output in a logical manner the data obtained shall be scaled at a level
which is comparable or scaling would be done to eliminate the bias in the data derived.
Further weightages shall be assigned to the indicators wherein the output of the data
analyzed would give location wise priority issues that would further help to identify projects
location wise.

Activity 7: Identification and detailing of projects


On the basis of the consultants understanding of the best practices, issues identified,
prospective growth scenario and strategies suggested; projects will be identified.

PHASE IV: DEVELOPMENT OF STRATEGIES AND PRIORITY ACTIONS


Activity 8: Evaluation of strategies/ projects
The strategies will be evaluated from the perspective of their contribution to achieving the
vision and sector goals. Criteria will be developed for prioritizing the strategies, programs and
projects in consultation with the Steering Group.

Activity 9: 2nd ULB Level Workshop


A 1st district level workshop will be organised to monitor the progress of the project.
A 1st Stage discussion at the State Level would be organized at the UADD to monitor the
progresses of the project.
Deliverable: City Profile, Sector Analysis, City Vision, Strategy and Priority Project
Report (Report on 2nd Workshop).

PHASE V: PREPARING A CAPITAL INVESTMENT PLAN (CIP), FINANCING


STRATEGY AND CDP
Activity 10: Preparation of Draft CDP
Last stage of the CDP is to formulate the Capital Investment Plan (CIP) and Financial
Operating Plan (FOP). CIP would lay out the cost and revenue estimates of all the priority

3.3 POPUL AT IO N P RO JECTIO N


Population projection is a scientific attempt to
glance into the future population scenario,
conditioned by making certain assumptions, using
data relating to the past available at that point of
time. The assumptions used and their probability of
adhering in future, forms a critical input in this
mathematical effort. Thus, the projections are
based on the assumption that the past trends will
continue in the future.

Figure No.10. Future Population Trend

Based on the projections the growth rate is showing decreasing trend from 1991-01 to 20012011 i.e. from 24.22% to 17.75% and all the three methods are providing a large difference
when projected. So, in order to provide positive growth rate utilizing the towns potential and
analyse it practically we have taken the average of all the methods. The population has been
projected up to the year 2035 using the average of following three methods:

Arithmetic Increase Method(Pn = P0+ni)


Geometric Increase Method (Pn=P0+(1+r/100)n)
Incremental Growth Method (Pn= P0+(I+I.I.)n)

The population projection difference from different methods is very large that is why the
population projections for the town has been taken based on average of all methods.
According to the population projections, the population is expected to increase at the rate of
17.08% from 2011 to 2035. The population is expected to reach a size of around 25,428 by
2021 and by 2035 the town is expected to grow to a size of 40,601 persons. According to the
population of 2001, Baroda falls under the category of a Class V Town, as of 2035 it would
come under Class III Town.

3.4 W AR D WISE POPU L AT ION DIST RI BUTION


The density of Baroda town is 6151 persons per Sq. Km (61.51 persons per hectare) in the
year 2011 which is quite low or near to comparable. As per the UDPFI guidelines, the
developed area density for a small town of this much size is 75-125 persons per hectare. As
compared with the guidelines the town is experiencing very low density.

The spatial distribution of population can be examined based on the ward wise population.
From the above table it can be seen that the highest population percentage is found in ward
no.15 i.e. 15.35% of the total population. The ward No.13 is having the lowest population of
just 786 persons i.e. 4.26% of the total population. There is a considerable difference in the
distribution of the population in the town. The lesser density wards are located on the
periphery of the town with inadequate road network and lack of basic facilities and away from
SH-6. Thus, the transportation corridors and facilities play an important role in spatial growth
of the town. It is necessary to develop the outer areas in order to decongest the core area of
the town which will thereby reduce the stress on infrastructure. Moreover, as it can be
analysed from the 2001 data that population distribution was considerably same during 19912001 and 2001-2011 owing to similar division of wards in both the decades. Although the
population has increased but the increase has been registered in the respective ward, this
means no division or reunion of wards has been done since 1991.

4. SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE
Summary: This chapter focuses on the sex ratio, literacy rates, work force participation rate,
growth of trade & commerce, industrial activities and economic opportunities and
industrialization in the Town.

4.1

SEX R AT IO

Sex ratio, defined as the number of women per 1000 men, is one of the indicators of the
status of women in a society. Women have been observed to enjoy longer survival rate than
men and therefore sex ratio should normally exceed 1000. On an average, the life
expectancy of women is five years more than men. Therefore, sex ratios lower than 1000
indicates in general discrimination against women. It reflects roots of patriarchy, which is
usually defined as a structural system of male domination. Most countries, except China
and those of South Asia have a sex ratio higher than 1000. The reasons for adverse sex ratio
in any region include high mortality rates among women, high maternal mortality ratio,
practice of female foeticide (sex selective abortion) and female infanticide and neglect of the
health of the girl child, especially on nutrition front, resulting in higher mortality; besides
immigration of single male population to a region.
To overcome the impact of immigration of single males to a region, which is the case
particularly in urbanized and industrialized regions and states of the country, the juvenile sex
ratio is considered in analyzing the status of women. Juvenile sex ratio is the sex ratio of
population in age-group 0-6 years.
Figure No.12. Sex ratio at National, State, District and Town Level

Source: Census of India, 2001


As per census 2001, the sex ratio of Baroda was 888 which was comparatively lower than
that of the district (895) state and national statistics as shown in the figure above. The sexratio between the age group of 0-6 yrs in the town was 841. A low child sex ratio indicates
higher occurances of female foeticide and higher infant mortality rates owing to poor child
care facilities. One reason behind this could be that marriages take place at a very young
age and this causes health related issues which becomes the cause of high death rate of

Credit can perhaps be given to the initiatives taken by the Government of MP for improving
the skewed sex ratio in the state. A skewed sex ratio that the 2011 Census threw up in the
case of Madhya Pradesh, particularly among its elite social strata, has prompted the state
government to implement a three-pronged strategy to remedy the grave socio-demographic:
create awareness through social and religious organisations, eradicate sex determination
tests and introduce strict laws to counter the menace in its totality.
Initiatives by the State Government
A Statewide Save the Girl Child (Beti Bachao Andolan) Campaign was launched by Chief
Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan. It was stated that to remove the stigma attached to a girl
child, not only girls who have excelled in their field would be honoured, but also their parents
who have encouraged the girl child to move ahead.
The salient features of the budget estimates of 2012-13 are as follows:
Women and Child Development
Provision of Rs. 4036 crores for all-round development of women and child.
Initiation of BetiBachaoAbhiyan to balance sex ratio and foster sensitivity and awareness in
society.
Provision of Rs. 48.75 crores in a new scheme to make available better health and nutrition
facilities for women and child.
Provision of Rs. 650 crores for LadliLaxmiYojana.
Provision of Rs. 100 crores for construction of anganwadi buildings.

As per Census definition, Literacy Rate is the total percentage of the population of an area at
a particular time aged seven years or above who can read and write with understanding. As
of 2001 provisional Census data, Baroda had a literacy rate of 60% which is higher than that
of the district (46%).The reason for low literacy rate is due to social taboos prevailing in the
town and lack of awareness among females striving for better life. The male literacy
accounted for 67% of the total population while female literacy rate of 43%.

AV ER AG E HOUSE HOL D SIZE

Baroda had a total of 2797 households with an average household size of 5.6 persons in the
year 2001 which is comparable with the average household size at district and state
hoewever at national level in terms of urban population this is higher, this has been due to
movement of males outside their homes in search of better opportunities in the nearby towns
from the Nagar Parishad.

WOR K FOR CE P ARTI CIP AT IO N R AT E

The work force participation rate in the town was 35.43% which comprises main and
marginal workers. Further, the percentage of main and marginal workers of the total workers
is 76.93% and 23.07% respectively. While the female literacy rate is very low in the town, as
a consequence the female work force participation rate is very low.
This socio-economic profile purely indicates that most of the working population has involved
in the primary and tertiary activities. This is a good sign for the development and the
improvement of small scale industries in which helps in generating internal economy for the
town. This re-instates the importance of agriculture in the economy of Baroda. The
agricultural labourers work as seasonal labourers from August-April, i.e. during the harvest
season. It can also be observed that the maximum involvement of female population is as
agricultural labourers and cultivators.
During the stakeholder consultations, it was found that the females also are willing to
undergo tarining and are ready to work. This is one of the positive responses for improving
the economy, female work force participation in the town and making them aware about their
rights and duties. Also there is no other major town in the vicinity, thus the town will have a
major impact in terms of economy, spatial growth and development.

5. PHYSICAL PLANNING & GROWTH


MANAGEMENT
Summary: This chapter describes about the spatial growth of the town, land use analysis of the
municipal area & developed area of the town and its comparison with the UDPFI guidelines, housing
scenario, future growth possibilities and environment. At the end the SWOT and issues & strategies
have been discussed.

5.1

SP ATI AL G RO WT H T REND S

The factors which govern the spatial growth of the town include road accessibility, land price,
economic activities, social facilities, migration, community service facilities etc. The growth of
the town is taking place along the State highway-19B towards District Kota, Rajasthan in the
west and towards Goras in the east. The figure below shows the location of town and its
nearby urban centers.
Figure No.20. Location of town and nearby centers

Source: Primary Survey, 2011


Administratively the town is divided into 15 wards. There is uneven distribution of population
in these wards as referred in chapter before. As from the chapter on demography it can be
seen that the wards along the major road passing through the town are higher density wards.

Page 33

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

5.2

SP ATI AL DIST RI B UTIO N OF POPUL AT IO N

The city is developing along the State Highway-19B. All major commercial and trade related
activities are concentrated in these areas. The city areas have high density with residential
and commercial development. Consequently, any new development impending in the city
heeds directly to the existing CBD to achieve maximum economies of scale. The impact is
vivid in the existing spatial development. The total area of the town is 3.00 sq.km. The town
is divided in to 15 wards with a population of 18,455 in 2011.

5.3

L AN D USE AN AL Y SIS

For planned development of an area, an in-depth analysis of the existing landuse is


necessary. The areas under different landuse categories are provided in the table below as
per the categories. Within the BNP area agriculture use of land is highest in the town i.e. one
third of the total NP area which depicts that town is having a rural character. Area under
commercial and roads are 22.39% and 11.94% respectively. Public and semi public use is
5.97% and area under water bodies and parks is 7.46% which is lesser when compared to
UDPFI norms.

Page 34

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

5.3.1 Residential
Residential occupies 52.24% of the total developed land which is conversant with the
standards as per UDPFI standards of 45-50. This envisaged approximately 105 hectares of
land for residential development. The town has a net residential density of 175.76
persons/hectare. This shows that the town faces high density because of inmigration and
higher density over small areas.

5.3.2 Commercial
Around 45 hectares of land in the town is occupied by commercial activities which is about
22.39% of the total developed area which is quite high owing to towns development based
on economic development. Commercial landuse includes shops, trading units (Mandi) and
markets, hotels and restaurants. The town does not have an organized commercial centre.
They are mostly scattered along the major road towards SH-19B. Some of the commercial
activities are concentrated in the core area with less road widths which interrupt movement of
traffic.

5.3.3 Industrial
Only small scale industries exist in the town. Most of these industries are service industries.
However based on agrarian economy, there is an absence of marketing committee for
agricultural products.

5.3.4 Public and Semi Public


As per town statistics the percentage of public and semi public uses is 5.26% of developed
area which is more as compared to UDPFI guidelines it should be 10-12% for this kind of
town. This area includes health facilities, schools and colleges, administrative/office buildings
and public amenities and facilities.

5.3.5 Transportation
The area under roads is 24 Ha which is about 11.94% of the total developed area, I.e.
percentage of land under roads is quite good. This area comprises of SH-19B, minor roads,
bus stops etc. When compared with UDPFI area under roads should be 12% for a town like
this.

5.3.6 Recreational
The area under recreational comprises of play grounds, parks and open areas is only 15
hectares, about 7.46% of the total developed area. The town lacks proper and adequate
recreation facilities. All religious gatherings and fairs are arranged outside the municipal
limits. As per UDPFI guidelines the percentage of recreational spaces should be 18-20%.

5.4

HOUSI NG S CEN ARIO

As per census 2001, only about 58.78% of the population lived in permanent houses while
37.08% of the population lived in semi-permanent and kuccha houses. Most of the semi
pucca and kutcha houses are located in the slums. This depicts the urban character of the
Nagar Parishad having potential for further attraction of population from nearby underdeveloped areas. As far as the ownership status is concerned, majority of population lives in

Page 34

personally owned properties. About 81.44% of the population lives in owned houses and only
16.20% in rented houses.

5.4.3 Issues
As per the analysis the following issues have been evolved:

Area under recreation and roads is only about 7% as compared to UDPFI norms of
15-20 %. This indicates that the town needs more open spaces and parks for better
environment.
The town does not have any industrial development except few industrial
establishments as service industries. The town is an agrarian economy.

5.4.4 Strategies
The development strategies for the land use will help in the regulated and planned
development of the town.

Page 36

Develop guidelines for the conversion of agricultural land into non-agricultural use.
This will help in keeping a check on the area under agricultural uses and misuse of
rich fertile agricultural land.
Enforce development restrictions in some areas.
Awareness among stakeholders on development regulations and planned
development of the town.
Delineate buffer zones and green belts to restrict development towards forest and
water bodies
Taking measures for the development of small and medium scale industries in the
town to support the agro products and for other local resources.
Regulations for mixed land use i.e. in case the number of Land Uses in one property
is of more than one type.
Development of low density residential areas with the traditional construction
materials for the buildings.
Strict measures should be adopted for conservation and development of water
bodies, as the town has a large number of water bodies.
Development of commercial, educational, recreational spaces and public facilities to
fulfill the future requirement.
Improvement of circulation spaces and major junctions in the town for the smooth
flow of traffic.
Rain Water Harvesting (RWH) should also be included while framing
the
development regulations of the town. The proposal of RWH has been discussed in
the later chapters.

6. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Summary: This chapter presents the existing status of urban services in Baroda. It covers
water supply, sewerage, sanitation, drainage, solid waste management, traffic &
transportation and social infrastructure. The chapter also estimates the present and future
gaps by the year 2035. The issues & strategies and SWOT analysis is done for each sector.

6.1

W AT ER S UPP LY

6.1.1 Source of Water and supply


The town is completely dependent on ground water sources for water supply. Ground water
is available at depth of 60 ft. Quality of ground water is satisfactory. BNP supplies water from
2 OHT in ward no. 10 and 3. Direct pumping is in practice for storage and distribution of
water supply. Depletion of water table is reported in the town. Ground water is the preferred
source of water in Baroda due to its good quality and availability in abundance at a
considerable depth. So far, BNP has not formulated any proposal for surface water based
scheme due to high investment requirements in surface water based scheme as ongoing
ground water based supply system is far more economical. Presently, BNP is supplying
water from a number of borewells.
The town is dependent on handpumps as 72.72% of the HH are dependent on handpumps
for drinking consumption, about 14.16% of the consumed drinking water is through taps
followed by wells (11.23%). This indicates that ground water is the efficient source of drinking
water facility in the town.

6.1.2 Groundwater Quantity and Quality


In general the depth to water level ranged between 0 and 10 m bgl in entire Madhya
Pradesh, except in patches and northern Madhya Pradesh. Very shallow groundwater levels
ranging between 0 and 2 m bgl were observed in 41.4% of monitoring wells. Water levels
between 10 and 20 m. bgl were noted in pockets in small pockets and northern Madhya
Pradesh (Neemuch, Khargone, Burhanpur, Shajapur, Shivpuri, Gwalior, Datia, Bhind,
Morena and Sheopur districts) and observed in 7.34% of monitoring wells. Very deep water
levels more than 20 m.bgl were seen in pockets spread in parts of Bhind, Morena and
Sheopur districts and observed in 1.72% of monitoring wells.
Figure No.24. Depth to water level Map in Sheopur District

Source: Central Ground water board


A perusal of this map shows that in general rise in water levels is observed in entire State
and noted in 92.06% of monitoring wells. In Malwa Region, rise more 4 m in groundwater
levels is seen in major part of the regional area while in eastern part of Madhya Pradesh, rise
between 0 and 4 m in groundwater levels is seen. Rise up to 2 m in water level is observed
in 27.47% of monitoring wells. Rise between 2 and 4 m in groundwater levels is seen in
pockets spread in entire State area and observed in 28.57% of monitoring wells. Rise more 4
m in groundwater levels is observed in 36.02% of monitoring wells. Fall between 2 and 4 m
in groundwater levels is seen in pockets Datia, Sheopur and Shivpuri districts and observed
in 1.59% of monitoring wells. Fall more than 4 m was noticed in some isolated wells of
Gwalior, Sheopur, Guna, Chhatarpur and Rewa districts observed in 0.85% of monitoring
wells.

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

6.1.3 Treatment & Transmission of Water


As per the Primary survey carried out by the consultant, in Nagar Parishad, there are 18 tube
wells for supplying the water. Water is supplied through mains of 8 inch and laterals of 3 inch
and 4 inch. This combination of pipelines has been used in ward nos. 1 to 11. New pipeline
network and new OHT have been laid in ward nos. 2, 3, 5, and 15. A total of 200 handpumps
and 200 public taps have been provided by BNP in the town for urban poor who do not have
piped connections.
Around 1180 houses have piped watersupply. BNP charges Rs. 40 per month per
connection. Presently town lacks water treatment plant, only primary stage chlorination is
done.
Figure No.25. Presence of OHTs & water supply practices in the town

6.1.4 Quality of Water


As per the survey by the consultants, mild hardness was reported by local people in the
ground water although they informed that they are satisfied by the overall water quality. The
sample test results of water quality are given below. The results below show that hardness is
above the permissible limits for drinking water.

BNP is supplying 0.73 MLD of water @40 lpcd per person per day, considering 135 lpcd
demand present supply gap is 1.91 MLD. Keeping the same sources of water supply, the
water supply demand would rise to as high as 4.9 MLD which would be unable to fulfill the

Page 39

6.1.6 Comparative analysis with UDPFI and CPHEEO Guidelines


As per UDPFI guidelines, 135 lpcd is the desirable water requirement for this size of
settlement. It also suggests the involvement of NGOs for awareness programme for optimal
utilization and saving water, equitable distribution of water supply including the squatter
settlements, efforts to reduce the water losses in transmission and distribution. On an
average 80-90 lpcd is the minimum requirement as per CPHEEO guidelines.

6.2.1 Existing sewerage system and means of sew age disposal


At present there is no sewage system in the town. The untreated or semi treated sewage is
disposed into the storm water drains especially in the core area of the town. Most of the
houses in town have their own flush type latrines with septic tank system. Approximately
2142 families use flush type latrine with septic tank system remaining 1428 houses practice
open defecation families practice open defecation. There is no treatment for grey water
discharged from kitchens. This water is disposed in open fields or road and rail lines side. A
Waste Treatment Plant and proper disposal system is required for treatment and hygienic
disposal of grey water. Due to absence of sewage system, city is facing various problems
such as open defecation, unhygienic conditions, etc.
Observations during Reconnaissance Survey

There is no sewage system in the city. In the absence of sewerage, residents drain
the effluents into open grounds or streets.

In slum areas, the sanitation conditions are worst.

Open defecation is the common problem in the city.

Septic tank system is in vogue in the city for personal lavatories.

6.2.2 Household toilets


As per 2001 Census, 1372 out of the total 2797 households had toilet facililities within the
premises. However, this comprised largely of water closets with 43.74%, pit latrines (30.98%)
and only 25.28% of the households had of the population having no latrine facility.

Based on the assumption that the total sewerage load in a Town is 80% of the total water
supply, the Town would generate a total sewerage of 1.99 MLD in 2011. By 2035, the
sewerage load would be doubled more than that of the amount with 4.36 MLD in 2035.

SO LI D W AS TE M AN AG EM E NT

The per capita waste generation in Indian towns varies from 100 g in small towns to 500g in
large towns. The amount of waste generation is estimated to increase by 1 percent to 1.33
percent annually. Thus the total waste generation in India by the year 2047 would be
approximately 260 MT, which is five times the present generation. The solid waste
management system is one of the critical and neglected areas which need immediate
attention.
Following are the major physical components of the Municipal Solid Waste Management
system in the town.

Treatment & Disposal


It is very important to understand each of the above components to
address the issues and problems of the solid waste management system.

comprehensively

6.3.1 Quantity of w aste generated


As in 2011, total waste generation in the town is approximately 4.61 tonnes per day, however
only 2.5 tonnes per day is collected by nagar parishad officials. Remaining waste remains
uncollected and is thrown on streets which create unhygenic condition in the town.

6.3.2 Constituents of Nagar Parishad w aste


The municipal waste constitutes both degradable and non-biodegradable waste. The
biodegradable waste includes kitchen food scrap, garden waste, human and animal waste.
The non-biodegradable waste includes metal cans, plastic products, bottles etc. Animal
waste is an important area of concern for the town.
Maximum contents in the waste are fine gradient, rubber/thermocol, resin, wood, plastic and
paper. Stone, metals, cloth and vegetables are major constituent of the waste. The waste
composition shows that the waste has good amount of calorific value and recyclable
constituents. Metals, glass, cloth and plastic is segregated by 35 rage pickers operating in
town.
Page 44

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

6.3.3 Collection & Storage


Door to door collection is done by private sweepers. They dispose the waste at fixed points
or in dustbins of BNP. The waste collected is usually stored in the dustbins provided in the
Nagar Parishad. The total no of dustbins provided in the town are 16. Waste is collected by 2
hand trolleys by sweepers from colonies and disposed in dustbins or at fixed points on road
side. BNP staff collects waste from these points and dispose it off to trenching ground.
Storage facilities are inadequate and waste is usually seen accumulated and not cleared
regularly.

6.3.4 Transportation of Solid Waste


Loading and unloading is done manually and waste is transported through open tractors
trolleys. BNP has 1 tractor and one hydraulic trolley for transportation of Solid Waste. The
details of waste transportation infrastructure available with BNP are as follows:

Figure No.27. Solid waste being dumped in open

6.3.5 Processing and disposal


The main objective of processing and disposal is to clear the waste from the disposal site in
an Eco-friendly manner. It is the responsibility of the Nagar Parishad to ensure safe disposal
of the wastes generated within municipal limits. In Baroda, open dumping is adopted as the
main disposal method for solid waste. The solid waste from the town is transported to the
open ground outside the town through tractors. Nagar Parishad tractors collect waste from
the fixed points from road side or the bins provided by municipality. Waste is disposed on
trenching ground of BNP. The waste is also disposed off on various sites illegally by local
residents which create nuisance in the city and creates unhygienic condition creating health
hazards in rainy season.

Page 45

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

6.3.6 Reuse and Recycling


There are no separate bins placed for collection of recyclable and hazardous wastes. The
waste collectors buy household recyclable waste but recycling activity is associated with low
efficiency.

6.3.7 Vehicles for solid waste collection and transportation of w aste


Nagar Parishad is responsible for transportation of solid waste disposal site. The tractor and
hand carts are used for transportation of waste. Open transportation system is adopted for
carrying solid waste from the storage points to the disposal site. Waste is collected from
various temporary storage points and open yards and loaded to the transport vehicle
manually. The workers use shovel, broom and hard card board to lift the waste to the hand
carts. Manual loading is time consuming and thus reduces the efficiency of the vehicles and
manpower deployed for the purpose. Further, manual handling of wastes poses threat to the
health of sanitary workers, as the waste is highly contaminated. Nagar Parishad has
inadequate number of vehicular fleet for transportation of waste.
Mukhyamantri Haath-thela Kalyan Yojna
In Madhya Pradesh under Mukhyamantri Haath-thela Kalyan Yojna-2009 is being
implemented by the State Government for the welfare of handcart pullers. It may be
mentioned that under Mukhyamantri Haath-thela Kalyan Yojna, financial assistance is
provided under Swarn Jayanti Shahri Rozgar Yojna to handcart pullers for becoming
owner of handcart. Each handcart costs Rs. six thousand. Besides 25 percent subsidy,
the State Government also makes available Rs. 2,500 to each beneficiary. In addition, if a
family member of a registered handcart puller passes away, Rs. two thousand assistance
is provided to perform last rites. Under maternity assistance, an amount equal to six
weeks wages at collector rate is provided. In the case of paternity leave, an amount
equal to 15 days wages is provided to father.
Staffing Norms:

Page 46

The work norms for street sweepers are:


High density area & Markets = 250 to 350 running meter (RMT) (Population
above 50000 per sq.km.)
Medium density area = 400 to 600 RMT (Population from 10000 to 50000 per
sq.km.)
Low Density area = 650 to 750 RMT
For the town of Baroda with a population of less than 1 lakhs the SWM staff should
includes:
1 qualified sanitation diploma holder as Sanitary officer (S.O.) if the population is
more than 50000
1 qualified Sanitary Inspector (S.I.) @ 50000 population
1 qualified Sanitary Sub-Inspector (S.S.I) @ 25000 population
1 Sanitary Supervisor (S.S.) @ 12,500 population.

DR AI N AG E

6.4.1 Existing drainage system


As far as the drainage system of the city is concerned, there are number of small water
channels that discharge run-off from the surrounding areas. The town does not have an
effective drainage system. Storm water naturally drains towards western side of town via
network of primary drains through 2 main secondary drains/Nalas flowing from east to west.
Natural drainage is very efficient due to more than gental slope. Some of the drains are
choked due to dumping of solid waste. The situation is further aggravated due to lack of
underground sewage system causing unhygenic conditions in the town. In addition to
deteriorated primary drains, secondary and tertiary system is also inadequate in terms of
quantity and quality. The length of kuchha type drains is 4 Km.

6.4.2 Primary, secondary and tertiary drains


The existing drainage system depends on nallahs as primary drainage source; secondary
drains which discharge to water bodies, the drain along road sides are the tertiary drains
which are open drains. The drains are clogged with solid waste which in turn reduces the
carrying capacity of the drains. The cleaning of the drains is done manually and the waste
from the drains is piled along the roads which creates foul smell and inconvenience to the
people. In some areas, the drains are filled with silt, brick bats, which lead to the overflow of
the drains. Thus, there is a need to create awareness among the people about the disposal
of waste and development of the pucca drains.
Figure No.28. Drainage system in the town

6.4.3 Major Water bodies


There are only 2 ponds in the town; one of them is very small and mostly dry. The second
one named as Chandrasagar Talab can be considered for conservation and beuitification.
This has potential for development as tourist attraction point.

6.4.4 Water Logged areas


Ward nos. 3, 5, 6, 10 & 11 are water logged areas in the town. Local people express serious
concern of flooding of town due to inflow of storm water from eastern side forests in rainy
season. Local people suggested that the drainage system of Baroda should be connected
with Kota Canal or Parvati River in scientific manner to avoid flooding of town. Networking of
entire drainage system with primary drains is required to drain the storm water efficiently
from the town. Apart from this, the core areas become water logged during rainy season.
This is mainly due lack of storm water drainage mechanism. There occurs flooding of water
during rainy season due to faulty drainage.

6.4.5 Waste outlets


As per census 2001, the waste outlets in terms of drainage can be categorized as Closed,
open and no drainage. This is shown in table below:

Transport infrastructure forms the backbone of an economy. It plays a very significant role in
the growth and development of the towns. It is also responsible for the spatial growth of the
town by increasing the accessibility of sites on the periphery of the town. This section has
been divided into the following sections: existing traffic and transportation, vehicle population
& travel characteristics, parking, public transport system and finally SWOT and issues &
strategies.

6.5.1 Existing traffic and transportation scenario


The town is connected to the major towns through State Highway-19B. This road carries
Page 49

whole of the traffic of this region extending upto Goras town. Traffic on other roads of the
town is very low due to small size of town. Buses are favourite mode of travel for regional
trips. Most of the people use owned 2 wheelers for local conveyance. Cycles are also used
as public transport mode. Outsiders and local people also prefer to complete local trips by
walk due to small trip lengths. Some private taxis are also used for regional trips by local
people. Major traffic destinations in town are Nagar Parishad, SDM office, Bazaar and
Schools. Other town roads include Bus stand to market road, Ratodham road, Saalmania
road, Indrapur road. All local roads in ward no. 5,10, 11, 14, 15 are kuchha type, these needs
to be converted into black top or pucca roads. Out of total road length 10kms roads are
Pucca type and 8 kms roads are Kuchha type. The total Length of SH-19B in town is
approximately 2 kms. There are no pedestrian facilities like footpaths, walkways, bus
shelters, and overbridge on main roads in town.

6.5.2 Agencies in traffic and transportation


The State Highway is managed by MP state road corporation and internal roads are the
property of Nagar Parishad.

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

6.5.3 Public transport


Public transport should meet the requirements of the commuters. It should be affordable,
accessible, safe and reliable. For passenger traffic the main modes of transportation are
auto-rickshaws, carts, scooters, motor cycles and bicycles. Buses are prominent mode of
travel for regional trips. Most of the people use privately owned two- wheelers for local
conveyance. Rickshaws and cycles are also used as public transport mode. Outsiders and
local people also prefer to complete local trips by walk due to small trip lengths. Some private
taxis are also used for regional trips by local people. Presently, the town doesnot have a bus
stand but there is a bus stop. This is the main source of traffic attraction/production zones.

6.5.4 Traffic Management and Circulation


There is no proper traffic management in the town; some of the roads are highly congested.
As the MDR is passing through the town, it leads to the increasing volume of traffic. All major
public and semi public institutions and commercial establishments are located in these areas,
which increase day traffic.
Figure No.30. Main road (SH-19B) and internal roads in the town

6.5.5 Parking Requirements for Baroda Town


There is no designated parking in the town. Due to lack of adequate parking in the prime
commercial areas, vehicles are parked on the roads, further leading to traffic problems.
Transportation of all goods is done mainly by trucks and these trucks are all parked along the
major roads which interrupts traffic movement. Off street parking is also a common sight. The
Page 50

Page 51

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

footpaths are also missing in all the roads, lack of street furniture like signage boards, road
markings, street name boards etc. Parking will be mainly required in market.

6.5.6 Present and future demand and supply gaps


The town does not have a freight junction or any transport nagar. Trucks load and unload
cargo in different parts of the town which create chaos. Effective transportation would form
the foundation for further development. The capacity of the existing roads needs to be
upgraded by increasing the width and strengthening the network which will in turn improve
the accessibility.

6.5.7 Comparative analysis with th e UDPFI guidelines


The parking space requirements, components of bus terminal and transport nagar are
designed as per the UDPFI guidelines which are given in the projects identification chapter.
The planning norms and requirement, road design elements are also considered as per the
guidelines.

It is required to design effective traffic and transportation management plans and regulations
to combat with this. Moreover, for Baroda, transportation appears to be a prime thrust area.
Vehicular movements exceeding the capacity of roads, parking on the streets, encroachment
of street space by commercial activities lead to traffic congestions. The main issues in this
sector are: Street lighting, Fire fighting and Power generation and distribution.

Street lighting is a significant aspect of security in the town. Nagar Parishad of Baroda is
responsible for providing all the street lights in the town. Baroda has 8 high mast lights which
have been installed by BNP. Accurate data of total length illuminated was not available with
BNP. BNP pays Rs. 6000 for street lighting & Rs.50,000 for water supply for bill of electricity

FIRE FIGH TI NG

Fire fighting is one of the disasters included in the Madhya Pradesh State Disaster
Management Policy. A professionally trained and equipped cadre needs to be maintained by
the Nagar Parishad for impromptu response to such disasters. BNP has one fire-fighting
vehicle TATA 407 and it has 3000 litres capacity. The Fire fighting operations are carried by
BNP but fire calls are taken by Police department. There is no proper fire station in the town,
and the vehicle is parked outside the Nagar Parishad Office. Most of the equipments used
here are not functional, i.e. 50% of the equipment is good. Moreover, this vehicle also caters
to the surrounding villages.
As per the UDPFI guidelines, 1 fire station or sub-fire station within 1-3 km is to be provided
for 2 lakhs population. There is also a recommendation that the fire services of small and
lower group of cities shall be provided by taking the demand of surrounding villages. For
setting up a Fire Station having skilled personnel (about 3-4 including driver) and modern
equipments.

7. SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Summary: Health and education is not the admissible component of JNNURM, but as they
also play an important role in the quality of life hence the broad analysis is done. While doing
the project costing in the subsequent chapters, these are not included in the Town
investment plan.

HE AL TH

7.1.1 Basic Health Indicators


The health indicators are used to measure the health status of an area. There are some
standards given by the World Health Organization as the following basic health indicators:

Prevalence of underweight children (under-five years of age)

Proportion (%) of population below minimum level of dietary energy consumption

Under-five mortality rate (probability of dying between birth and age 5)

Infant mortality rate

Proportion (%) of 1 year-old children immunized for measles

Maternal mortality ratio

Proportion (%) of births attended by skilled health personnel

HIV prevalence 15-49 years (per 100,000 population)

Malaria death and prevalence rate per 100,000

Tuberculosis death and prevalence rate per 100,000

Proportion (%) of Smear-Positive Pulmonary Tuberculosis cases (detected and


cured) and put under directly observed treatment short course (DOTS)

Proportion (%) of population using biomass fuels)

Proportion (%) of population with sustainable access to an improved water source,


rural & urban

Proportion (%) of urban population with access to improved sanitation

Proportion (%) of population with access to affordable essential drugs on a


sustainable basis (Source: http://www.searo.who.int).

7.1.2 Existing Medical facilities


The clinics and hospitals in Baroda Nagar Parishad are inadequate in terms of the need of
the town. There is one Community Health Center (CHC) in the town. The CHC has 10 beds,
3 male doctors and 8 female doctors/nurses which is insufficient catering to the needs of
increasing population. Another 50 bed hospital is under construction in ward no. 15. The
residents have to depend on the health care facilities in Sheopur City. Primary health is
poorer in the slums and the lack of awareness of family planning is evident. There is one
veterinary hospital in the town.
The Nagar Parishad doesnot provide special care for maternity and emergency child birth
derives through the Janani Express. This is a mobile van that not only serves as
Page 54

ambulances for carrying women to maternity centres but also provides with all the
equipments for emergency delivery in the van itself.

7.2.2 Existing Education f acilities


There are a total of 16 primary/middle schools and higher secondary schools in the town.
There are five colleges for higher education in the town. Baroda is going to be an educational
hub of the city, several courses like Biotechnology, Computer, Management, and Journalism
etc. are offered by various private institutes and will further develop as a knowledge hub in
the near future.

The town lacks the lung spaces. There is only one community park in the town and
which is not properly maintained. As per the UDPFI guidelines the norms for parks,
play fields and other open spaces at the town level is 10-12 sqmts.per person. Thus,
it can be seen that the recreational facilities are far below the standards.

CON CL USIO N

The overall infrastructure system has numerous loopholes. An optimum development of the
town is possible with the support of efficient infrastructure. Adding to the above issues, the
existing water capacity is not commensurate with the future population demand. Apart from
sole dependence on ground water, other sources need to be identified. A centrally controlled
infrastructure planning and monitoring system that would assess the need, implement,
monitor and maintain could aptly fill in the gaps in the towns infra-management system.
Owing to the absence of waste management and indiscriminate dumping of wastes,
environmental degradation is a prime issue in the Town. For environmentally sustainable
management of the town, environmental conservation including, separating waste dumping
pits from the water bodies, re-use and recycling of waste water etc., should be given a
significant focus.

8. URBAN POOR & THEIR ACCESSIBILITY


TO BASIC SERVICES
This chapter focusses on the condition of urban poor and livability conditions in the slum.

8.1

INT ROD UC TIO N

Slums and squatter settlements are the results of urban poverty. The population living in
slums lacks access to basic infrastructure services like safe water, sewerage & sanitation,
solid waste collection and disposal, drainage, access roads, street lights, neighborhood
amenities like safe play areas for children and community facilities and electricity
connections.
M.P Gandi Basti Kshetra (Sudhar Tatha Nirmulan) Act, 1976 (M.P Slum Area - Improvement
& Relocation Act) defines slums by taking housing conditions and access to services as the
basic criteria for defining an area as a slum. It also specifies that where the competent
authority is satisfied in respect of buildings in an area that the buildings in that area are in
any respect unfit for human habitation; or are by reason of dilapidation, overcrowding, faulty
arrangement of streets, lack of ventilation, light or sanitation facilities, or any combination of
these factors, are detrimental to safety, health or morals - it may, by notification, declare such
area to be a slum area. Further, to specify that a building is unfit for human habitation, the
criteria to be considered are repair, stability, freedom from damp, natural light and air, water
supply, drainage and sanitary conveniences, facilities for storage, preparation and cooking of
food and for the disposal of waste water.

8.2

V ARIO US DEFI NIT IONS O N SL UMS

Definition of Slum by Census of India, 2011, the slum areas broadly constitute of :a) All specified areas in a town or city notified as Slum by State/Local Government and
UT Administration under any Act including a Slum Act to be considered as Notified
Slums
b) All areas recognized as Slum by State/Local Government and UT Administration,
Housing and Slum Boards, which may have not been formally notified as slum under
any act to be considered as Recognised Slums
c) A compact area of at least 300 population or about 60-70 households of poorly built
congested tenements, in unhygienic environment usually with inadequate
infrastructure and lacking in proper sanitary and drinking water facilities. Such areas
may be considered as Identified Slums
UN Habitat defines slum as as a group of individuals living under the same roof thatlack
one or more (in some cities, two or more) of the following conditions:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
f)

security of tenure,
structural quality and
durability of dwellings,
access to safe water,
access to sanitation facilities and
sufficient living area

Page 58

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

National Sample Survey Organization (58th Round)


A compact settlement with a collection of poorly built tenements, mostly of temporary nature,
crowdedtogether usually with inadequate sanitary and drinking water facilities in unhygienic
conditions. Such anarea, for the purpose of this survey, was considered as non-notified
slum if at least 20 households livedin that area. Areas notified as slums by the respective
municipalities, corporations, local bodies ordevelopment authorities are treated as notified
slums.
In India, Under Section-3 of the Slum Area Improvement and Clearance Act,1956, Slums
have been defined as mainly those residential areas where dwellings are inany respect unfit
for human habitation by reasons of dilapidation, overcrowding, faultydesigns of buildings,
narrowness or faulty arrangement of streets, lack of ventilation,light or sanitation facilities or
any combination of these factors which are detrimental tosafety, health and morals. Thus,
conceptually Slums are perceived as compactovercrowded residential areas (and not
isolated or scattered dwellings) unfit forhabitation due to lack of one or more of the basic
infrastructure like drinking water, sanitation, electricity, sewerage, streets etc. In addition to
this Central Legislation, several States have independent Acts where Slums are defined.
In M.P., slum declaration is done by the Municipality under the M.P Slum Area- Improvement
& Relocation Act-1976. The amendment was proposed in Directions for declaring an areas
as slum under sub-section 418-A of the M.P. Municipal Corporation Act, 1956 DUDA has
issued directions to ULBs in 2009 for declaring an area as slum.

8.3

REFLE CT ION O N CONS UL T AT ION WIT H SL UM DWE L LERS

As a part of the CDP process, a series of consultations were held with the slum population in
Baroda. A total of 400 people were met from a random sample of slums although care
was taken to ensure that all categories of slums according to tenure were covered in the
exercise. While the process of selection of people for the consultations was not fully
scientific, it provides a fair cross sectional perspective. Any action to address services in
slum areas would need to involve further consultations as part of the planning and
implementation of interventions.

8.4

L AN D O WNERS HI P AN D T E NURE S T AT US

Most of the slums in Baroda are located on government and private lands. Government is
providing legal ownership to slum dwellers time to time as part of its policy to ensure tenure
security to the poor and landless. According to the IHSDP, most of the slum dwellers have
legal Land Ownership. The land has been given to all the slum dwellers on pattas under
Madhya Pradesh Patta Adhiniyam.
Madhya Pradesh (MP) has granted pattas under a legislative provision (MP Patta
Adhiniyam) to all slum dwellers residing in cities prior to a certain date. A special scheme
called Rajiv Gandhi Ashray Yojna has been launched (in 2002) for the urban poor. Under
this scheme plots are distributed to the urban poor for carrying-out economic activities and,
thus, bringing them above the poverty line. A special fund has been created for the
development of Jhuggi Basties. Under Rajiv Gandhi Awas Yojna 114 pattas were granted
initially. However, after two years, 56 more were awarded under Chief Ministers Ashray
Scheme.

Page 59

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

In order to build slum free cities and for sustainable poverty reduction, local governments
must provide security of tenure to slums. This implies granting permission/license to
residents to occupy public land.
Land tenure can also be of a more permanent nature, in the form of patta or legal
ownership of land, which allows people to legally build and own houses on the site. With
patta/secure land tenure the urban poor begin to make investments in house upgrading and
show greater readiness to pay for individual basic services. The slum dwellers/household
that have not been given the pattas, the Town may choose one or a combination of the
following options for granting tenure, depending upon the local context. This policy must be
in synergy with the state policy.

GROWTH IS NECESSARY TO REMOVE POVERTY, AND INTERVENTIONS


LIKE NREGA HELP.
Madhya Pradesh, one of the best performers in poverty reduction, grew below the
national average at 7.1% through these five years. Its success is attributable to effective
intervention: an impressive 9% of all NREGA beneficiaries belong to MP. Growth is
necessary to lift people out of poverty, but states like Madhya Pradesh show that even
when growth lags, schemes like NREGA, implemented well, can do a wonderful job. The
growth versus intervention debate is pointless; growth with intervention makes sense.

8.5

POVERTY I N TOWN

At present the total population living below poverty line is 9936. Urban poor of Baroda are
basically either laborers, agriculture field workers and workers in service sector. There are a
total of 3 slum pockets in Baroda. All these slum pockets are located in ward no 3, 5 and 10.
Total population of these pockets is 3389. A total of 73% population is BPL population in
these slum pockets. About 100 homeless families reside in ward nos. 14 and 15 in open.

Most of the houses are pucca type and all the houses are built on owned land. The condition
of internal roads in these slum pockets is similar to other parts of town. Around 154 houses in
the slums are Kuchha type. 99 houses have toilets in slums. All these houses are dependent
on handpumps.

I NFR AS TR UC TU RE

1. Land Tenure: All of the slum dwellings are occupied by private lands. Some have
been provided with legal pattas by the government while some have gained
possession of the land owing to having inhabited it for generations.

2. Housing: Out of the total slum population only 37% of the slum dwellers live in
kutcha houses which is made by the local materials. The surroundings of some of the
houses is very clean. Some of the slum HHs have enclosed the open spaces with a
temporary boundary typically known as angan where the washing and cleaning
activities are carried out. In some HHs this space is also utilised for growing local
vegetables for their daily use.

3. Water Supply: Handpumps are present in the slums and are prominent source of
water consumption in the town.

4. Sanitation: None of the slum pockets has proper sanitation facilities, open defecation
is quite common.

5. Drainage: Open drainage, mainly kutcha drains in almost all the slum wards.
6. Solid Waste Management: Garbage is dumped on streets, open areas.
7. Health: Primary health conditions are poor
8. Education: Children have access to primary education in government schools.
9. Social Security: Social security pension scheme, Samajik Sureksha/Vradhawastha
Pension Yojna, have not taken up for BPL families.
Analysis:
1. Water Supply: Drinking water facilities are available in almost all the Slum areas. It is
provided in three alternate ways:
i. Piped Water supply
ii. Bore Well
iii. Hand pump
2. Public Toilets: There is no public toilet facility available in all these slums.
3. Housing: The houses are divided in 2 categories :
i. Kutcha house: House with tiled roof is considered as Kutcha
ii. Pucca house: House with concrete slab is considered as Pucca
4. Drainage: It has been seen that out of the total slum areas listed above, most of slum
settlements have open drainage system and only few have semi covered drains.
5. Solid Waste Management: There is no proper way of solid waste disposal which
exists at the slum level. In 40% of the slum pockets solid waste is collected by govt.
or private persons but disposal sites are either non-existent or are poorly managed. In
many slums solid waste can be seen flowing in the drains leading to chocked drains
and health hazardous situation.
6. Health facilities: There are no health care facilities available in all these slum
settlements.
7. Educational facilities: Some of the Slum areas have primary school facilities.
8. Land tenure: In Baroda the land is provided to these slum dwellers on several basis
a. On Patta
b. On per month house tax to Nagar Parishad
c. And, some have bought the land

It is suggested that the inventory of required basic services in the slum pockets should be
made. The awareness and mobilisation of slum communities for participation in slum
development schemes should also be envisioned. It is also envisaged to link the slum
dwellere with the employment generation schmes or poverty alleviation schmes.

8.13 UR B AN B AS I C SE R VI CE S I N S LUM S
The UBSP scheme was launched in some of the slums with the objective of bringing in
improvement in the standard of living of the Urban poor specially women and children of the
lower strata of the society and other weaker sections and tofulfill the basic needs of urban
poor through designing their own programmeswith the help of government and nongovernment organisations. The main target groups were people living below the poverty level
and special emphasishas been laid on women, children and other backward classes such as
schedulecaste, schedule tribe, handicapped, old etc. The basic principle of UBSP scheme
was community participation and to utilize the money provided underplans and schemes of
different government departments. In the existing situation most of the slum dwellers get their
water supply from tube wells and bore and some of the households are covered under piped
supply. The existing system sewage and sanitation facilities in these entire slums are lacking.

8.14 SO CI AL SE CU RI TY SC HE M E S AN D B EN EFI CI AR I E S
The town has an opportunity to improve the condition of the city under the Integrated
Housing and Slum Development Programme (IHSDP). Under the IHSDP, total of 100
beneficiaries for housing have been identified. Old age pension scheme and social security
pension scheme, Samajik Sureksha/Vradhawastha Pension Yojna, are going on for BPL
families. The other schemes that are currently going on are Swarn Jayanti Swarojgar Yojana,
Schmes for female household workers, Indira Gandhi Old Age Pension Scheme, Janashri
Bima Yojna, etc.
In future there might be implementation of IHSDP programme for poor people who are
residing in the low income areas provision of social services under the scheme. Urban poor
residing contiguous to low income areas/slums would also be able to avail social services
provided under the Scheme. Along with employment generation, providing sanitation and
water supply services, introducing saving schemes, self help groups, extending credit for
income generating opportunities, are significant initiatives.
Samajik Suraksha Pension Scheme
Samajik Suraksha Pension Scheme (SSPS) is a scheme for vulnerable groups within the
BPL including the old, handicapped and orphans. A financial assistance of Rs.150/- per
month is given to the identified beneficiary under this scheme.
Indira gandhi National Old Age Pension Scheme
The programme has been launched in November 2007. It covers all senior citizens with more
than 65 years of age and belonging to BPL families. The pension amount will be credited
wherever poosible into a post office or bank account of the beneficiary. Under this scheme a
pension of Rs.275 per month has been distributed.
Rashtriya Pariwar Sahatya Scheme
Under this scheme a financial assistance of Rs.1000/- is given on the death of the earning
member of the beneficiary family. This scheme sheilds the dependents from undue hardship.
Indira Gandhi National Widow Pension Scheme
This scheme was launched in February 2009 by the Government of India. The scheme
provides pension of Rs.200 per month to widows between the age group of 40-64 years.

9. ENVIRONMENT
Summary: The chapter aims at developing a comprehensive environmental management strategy for
the Baroda based on baseline information with regard to urban environment quality and services. It
also takes a closer look at the existing framework of the states policy on various components of
environment; identify the processes and causes, which are leading to deterioration and decline of the
environment in and around the town.

9.1

PO LLU TI O N LE VE L

9.1.1 Water Pollution


A major environmental issue for the Town relates to the pollution of water bodies. Lacking a
proper waste management mechanism, in Baroda collected garbage and sewerage being
dumped along the water bodies. This not only leads to severe pollution of water bodies but
also leads to contamination of ground water in long run. As per the information available from
various sources and discussions with the concerned officials the water quality is as per the
standards.
9.1.2 Air Pollution
Emissions from industrial areas in and around the town is considered as primary source for
air pollution, while secondary sources include smoke from burning of firewood, charcoalmaking and domestic heating, and vehicular pollution.
In BNP the main source of pollution is the emission from the vehicles. Due to use of lowgrade fuel, low maintenance of vehicles, and poor conditions of the roads. The
concentrations of SPM, SO2, NOx and CO in the ambient air are well within the National
Ambient Air Quality (NAAQ) standards for Residential and Rural areas.

9.1.3 Tow n green spaces


Town green spaces are considered as the lung or breathing spaces of the town. Currently
about 15 hectares of land is under recreational activities which are about 7.46% of the total
developed area. This is negligible in comparison to the requirement of the town of this size.
As per UDPFI guidelines, 12-14% is required for this kind of town, 1.0 to 1.2 ha per 1000
persons for town level recreational facilities is required, excluding open spaces in Residential
pockets. The recreational facilities can be distributed in the residential pockets with a
population size of 8000-10000.

9.1.4 Noise
The major traffic flow is along SH-19B both inter town and intra town. The noise levels were
comparatively higher along these transport corridors than the other roads and various
commercial locations in the town. Daytime and night time noise levels in the town were found
varying but are within the permissible limits; however the levels are reported well within the
permissible limits by MPPCB for all categories in the areas.

9.1.5 Water bodies


There are only 2 ponds in the town; one of them is very small and mostly dry. The second
one named as Chandrasagar Talab can be considered for conservation and beuitification.
This has potential for development as tourist attraction point.

10.3 SUMM AR Y O F FI N DINGS


BNP is the core organizations governing the planning and management of the city and its
planning area. However, there are other departments that facilitates the service delivery
mechanism such as PHED, PWD, Police etc. Presence of multiple departments has created
the issue of multiplicity.
Number of reforms has been undertaken in BNP such as double entry accounting,
decentralization of governance, etc. However, more focus is required to enhance the
revenue sources and capacity of the human resource to sustain the ongoing programs.
Page 73

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

10.4 STR AT EGIES


Introduce e-governance set up in the Nagar Parishad in the core functions to reduce
the cost and timely delivery.
Presently the budget system is cash based single entry system, this needs to be
changed to accrual based double accounting system so as to realign it to widely
prevalent standards of accounting.
Particular emphasis on service delivery.
Participation of local religious trust can be an excellent idea for mopping revenue.

Also, introduction of computerized process of land and property is one of the


suggested initiatives for improving the finances of the Nagar Parishad.

11. INSTITUTIONAL PROFILE


Summary: This chapter discuss about the duties of the local bodies, functions, strengths of
the various institutions involved in the development of Town.

11.1 LEG AL F R AME WO RK


The urban local bodies in the state of Madhya Pradesh are governed by two important
legislations:

The Madhya Pradesh Municipalities Act, 1961


The Madhya Pradesh Municipal Corporation Act, 1956

To bring uniformity in the structure and working of municipalities in the state, the M.P.
Government appointed the Local Self-government (Urban) Committee, to suggest
modifications in existing legislations in July 1957. The Committee submitted its report in 1959
and on the basis of the recommendations of this committee, the State Government, enacted
the above legislation replacing the diverse legislations in operation in different parts of the
state. These acts specify the governance framework, spatial jurisdiction and the functional
domain of the urban local bodies.

11.5 ROLE O F N AG AR P ARIS H AD


The local body does not play a major role for its maintenance and preservation. Presently,
there is a lack of co-ordination between the different departments. The role and
responsibilities are not clear.
It is necessary to set up a nodal agency like Heritage Cell in the Nagar Parishad that should
comprise of members from various departments. The role of the cell should be:
Management of database of unprotected heritage structures and all projects related
to heritage conservation
Co-ordination among different departments
Increase awareness among the people about heritage conservation
Capacity building
Strict regulations and restriction for the heritage structures, to maintain its heritage
value

Manage a programme of repair and maintenance

facilities. Maintenance of the parking areas, toilets, waste collection, ticket booths etc. are
some of the areas where private sector can play a major role.

11.7 ST AT US O F MU NI CIP AL E-GOVERNANCE


There is no system of e- governance in the Nagar Parishad. The e-governance can be
achieved through the following steps:
1. Government offices should be computerized using online workflow procedure. That
means all the paper based registers have to be given up and all government works
have to be carried out only through computers.
2. All Government employees working in the areas where e-governance is proposed
have to be computer trained and each one should be given user ID and password to
operate the system.
3. All these government employees have to be trained in their area of operation in the
software.
4. The Government servers should be connected to the internet so that the citizens
and business houses are enabled to access the Government information at any time
and also enabled to file all their requests/applications online. The scope for meeting
government officials should be reduced to the extent that only where statutorily such
physical presence is required they should be asked to meet the government officials.
Page 81

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

5. All applications or requests from citizens/business houses should be received only


through online procedure using internet as medium.
6. STD booths or similar public kiosks should be authorized to intermediate between the
citizens and the government. This includes online remittance facility too.

12. STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION


Summary: This chapter discusses about the stakeholder consultations held during the
various stage of CDP, issues & suggestions given by the stakeholders in each workshop and
finally the prioritisation of the sectors.

12.1 INT ROD UC TIO N


Various stakeholder groups were identified for preparation of the City Development Plan
during the various stages of the project. Stakeholders were involved through interviews and
focus group discussions to gauge situation assessment in terms of levels of services, and
infrastructure needs for improvement. Two core groups of stakeholders were identified.

Primary stakeholders: They are beneficiaries of a development intervention or those


directly affected by it. They include local populations and organizations such as
Residential welfare organizations, traders organizations, hoteliers and other
associations.

Secondary stakeholders: They include those who influence development


interventions, such as, local governments, implementing agencies, civil society
organisations, private sector firms and other development agencies. Nagar Parishad
members, staffs of PWD, etc. were amongst the stakeholders consulted.

The aim of conducting consultation programs is to articulate stakeholder expectations so as


to be able to formulate city development vision, prioritise city development issues, develop
strategies and integrate their opinions in decision making. Opinions were sought from
stakeholders during consultation. The participants were asked for views on the baseline
situation related to urban infrastructure followed by their priorities for development. The
consultation program and findings from them have been mentioned below.
The workshops were organized by MSV International Inc in the presence of Mr. Bansal,
Chief Municipal Officer and other elected representative of the wards, line departments, and
Senior citizens of the city.

12.2 I ST AG E: KI CK - O FF WORKSHO P
The Kick-Off Workshop marked the initiation of the planning process for Town Development
Plan. Its purpose is to familiarize the stakeholders with the purpose, process, and expected
outcomes of the CDP, and build enthusiasm, understanding and commitment to the CDP.
As per the TOR for preparation of the City Development Plan of Baroda, the Kick-Off
Workshop was organized on 20th December 2011.
The stakeholders included the Mr. Arvind Kumar Mishra, Chief Municipal Officer, Chairman
of the Nagar Parishad, CMO officers of various government departments, ward councillors
and local people of the town. While the local people were mainly concerned about their day
to day problems of inadequate water supply and lack of treatment facilities, the ward
councilors were more concerned about facilities for their individual wards.
The C.M.O. gave the welcome speech and introduces the entire members one by one. He
explained about CDP, their requirements, future planning for upcoming 25 years and

The second workshop and presentation on city vision and sector goals was organized on 16th
of February, 2012 at the Baroda Nagar Parishad Office. Our understanding of the towns
existing condition was presented to the stakeholders followed by a discussion on towns
perspectives and priorities.

Page 87

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

12.3.1

Issues

Based on our study and discussion with the stakeholders the main issues that were identified
are as follows:
The town requires an efficient sewerage network not only for improving quality of

life but also from the interest of conservation of the water bodies, as according to
the current situation, sewerage from the city drains directly into the river.
Lack of proper solid waste management system. All the waste is dumped in open

areas.
One significant problem in Baroda is its lack of parking space and congestion on

roads. The need for parking spaces especially in the market place and the need to
construct dividers on the roads for managing traffic were major issues highlighted.
Mixing of regional traffic and local traffic.
The impact of industrial developments around the town would have a significant

impact on the economic development of the town.


12.3.2

Suggestions

Certain suggestions put forward by the participants were as follows:


Widening of roads and major junctions in the town.
Improvement of the water supply distribution system and waste management.
Restoration of water bodies and development of recreation zones
Beautification of all water bodies and providing buffer areas along these water

bodies for their protection.


Fulfilling the future demand of social infrastructure in the town.

12.3.3

Thrust areas

The thrust areas identified, therefore, are as follows:


Infrastructure development including sewerage, drainage, water supply and

roadnetworks.
Need for parking spaces and a transport nagar.
Restoration of water bodies in the town and provided with buffer areas.

12.3.4

Prioritisation of sectors

Projects have been identified in each sector focusing on the aspects that are integral for the
development of the town, guided by the discussions emanating from stakeholder
consultations. Water supply and sewage has been assigned equal priority as management
and maintenance of both is required to be undertaken simultaneously. To summarise, the
priority sectors for Baroda are:

13. CITY INVESTMENT PLAN


Summary: This chapter discusses about prioritization of proposed projects and their
investment requirements and phasing.

13.1 B ASIS OF P RIOR I TIZ AT IO N


The issues with respect to towns development have been arrived at after extensive analysis
of the status of each sector. These sectors include landuse, economic development,
environment, housing, slum development, urban services including water supply, sewerage,
solid waste management and transportation, heritage, municipal finance and institutional
framework. It is necessary to prioritize these issues in order to address them effectively. The
prioritisation has been based on two criteria:

Stakeholder perception; and


Analysis of status of existing and future requirements; &
Sectoral assessment by the project team

The priorities for the Town have been analysed taking account two very important aspects of
development:

Livability and Competitiveness.


Livability includes the sectors that determine a decent quality of life including
environment, access to infrastructure and basic services, housing and slums.
Competitiveness measures the ability to attract economic forces, namely, level of
economic development, locational advantage, heritage, etc.

13.4 PROJEC T PR IORI TIS AT I ON


Projects have been identified in each sector focusing on the aspects that are integral for the
development of the town, guided by the discussions emanating from stakeholder
consultations. The basis of identification is two fold:

Priorities as identified by various stakeholders during the CDP preparation process.

Current and future demand and supply gaps estimated by the project team.

13.5

OBJEC TIVE

Based on the status of infrastructure and priorities, projects have been identified for the
development of the City. On the basis of previous analysis, the quantum of investment
required to attain sustainable growth and the project goals, over a specified time frame, have
been calculated. In brief, City Investment Plan (CIP) provides an estimate of investment that
will be needed to implement the CDP. The costing provided for the projects given below is a
rough cost estimate based on mainly Madhya Pradesh Schedule of rates 2012, CPWD
Schedule of Rates, 2012; Report on Indian Urban Infrastructure and Services, 2011; National
Capital Regional Planning Board, Ministry of Urban Development, Govt. of India and the
discussions with the local PWD/PHED officials in the towns. The costing is based on
Departmental estimates and lump sum amounts with suitable escalation factors in each
sector for the implementing period.

13.6

INVEST MEN T EST I M AT ES

13.6.1 Water Suppl y


The total estimated cost of the proposed projects for water supply is Rs.1080.90 lakhs which
includes internal distribution systems, installation of meters, contruction of Water treatment
plants and also water conservation techniques such as rain water harvesting. The expansion
of the network is approximately for a length of 40 km (both sides of the road). The installation
of meters is also one of the projects which will help in monitoring the water usage and cost
recovery. Rain Water Harvesting method will be adopted to increase the ground water table
through artificial recharge and improve the quality of ground water, Rain water harvesting
method will be initiated. It will be used in the government buildings before and then in public
institutions, residences etc. At present, 6 rainwater harvesting structures are being proposed
in the following government buildings: Nagar parishad office, Tehsil Office, Community
Health Centre, Police Station, College and Girls high School. In future, making rainwater
harvesting provisions would be made mandatory for approving site plans.

Page 94

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

The State Govt. vide Gazette notification dated 26.8.2006, has made roof top RWH
mandatory for all types of buildings having plot size of more than 140 sq.m. The government
has also announced 6% rebate in property tax to individuals for the year in which the
individual will go for installation of roof top RWH structures.

Rainwater Harvesting
Rainwater harvesting is the accumulating and storing, of rainwater. It has been used to
provide drinking water, water for livestock, and water for irrigation or to refill aquifers in a
process called groundwater recharge. Rainwater collected from the roofs of houses, tents
and local institutions, or from specially prepared areas of ground, can make an important
contribution to drinking water. Rainwater systems are simple to construct from inexpensive
local materials, and are potentially successful in most habitable locations.
Sixteen projects on rain water harvesting have already been completed at different schools in
the four major cities in Madhya Pradesh, India, under a unique partnership spearheaded by
UN-HABITAT and bringing together education institutions, government agencies and
corporate bodies. The systems, having a combined potential to harvest 3.6 million litres of
rain water annually at normal rainfall, will benefit nearly 18,000 students besides the
communities around these schools by raising awareness regarding rain water harvesting.

13.6.2 Sewerage & Storm Water Drainage


The estimated project cost for sewerage and storm water drainage is Rs.2645 lakhs. The aim
of projects in this sector is to ensure effective treatment and disposal of waste water, thereby
helping in conservation of the water bodies. Sewage and sanitation facilities are to be
especially extended to the newer colonies and slums which get flooded during the monsoons
owing to overflowing of drains. The existing drains in Baroda would be widened and also
covered to avoid being clogged up by solid wastes.

The size of the town is too small to support a sewerage treatment plan. So 1stly, it is
proposed that septic tanks be provided in each household.
The proposed wastewater network would include the following components
1. Wastewater collection network:
a. Covered surface drains
b. Underground storm drains underneath the surface drains on major roads
and/or wherever feasible.
2. Wastewater Treatment Systems:
a. Small Septic Tanks at household level for domestic sewage treatment
(50% of the HH)
b. Centralized Septic Tank System with a capacity to treat sewage of
10000-15000
c. Constructed Wetland for tertiary level treatment of Stormwater (1
Hectare)
The treated water can be used for irrigation purposes or for recharging of water bodies. 50%
of the sewage generated would be treated by de centralised method. The schematic diagram
of the proposed has been provided below:

DEWATS DECENTRALIZED WASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEMS


DEWATS technology is an effective, efficient and affordable wastewater treatment solution.
The main features of DEWAT system are:

It is a technical approach rather than merely a technology package.


DEWATS applications are based on the principle of low-maintenance since most
important parts of the system work without technical energy inputs and cannot be
switched off intentionally.
DEWATS applications provide state-of-the art- technology at affordable prices
because all of the materials used for construction are locally available.

Advantages of DEWATS:

Efficient treatment for daily wastewater flows up to 1000m3


Modular design of all components
Tolerant towards inflow fluctuations
Reliable and long-lasting construction design
Expensive and sophisticated maintenance not required
Low maintenance costs

Limitations of Constructed Wetlands:

Large area requirement


Wetland treatment may be economical relative to other options only where land is
available and affordable.
Design criteria are yet to be developed for different types of wastewater indifferent
climatic conditions.

Decentralised wastewater treatment systems (DEWATS) are based on different natural


treatment techniques, put together in different combinations according to the needs, the
possibilities, the challenges and the financial implications. The different components cover
primary, secondary and tertiary treatment.
PRI M AR Y TRE ATM E N T
Pre-treatment is used for screening and sedimentation process, separating the floating part
from the sewage. A device called a Settler is used for this phase.

Page 95

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

SECO ND AR Y TR E ATM EN T
In secondary treatment, biological and natural chemical processes are used to digest and
remove most of the organic matter. A device called an Anaerobic Baffled Tank Reactor is
used for this phase. Several tanks (up flow chambers) are constructed in series to help
digest difficult degradable substances. Baffle walls direct the water stream between the
chambers. The sewage flows from top to bottom and up again with the effect that the fresh
influent is mixed and inoculated for digestion with the active blanket deposit of suspended
particles and microorganisms occurring naturally in such conditions. Because of the physical
separation (multiple chambers), various microorganisms are present at different stages,
allowing high treatment efficiency. The figure below shows a Typical section of an Anaerobic
Baffled Reactor.
The primary and secondary treatment systems are constructed below ground level. They are
built together as a single and compact setup. Nearly 90% of the original pollution load will be
removed at this stage.Since the system works in a closed environment without oxygen
supply (anaerobic conditions) the effluent will continue to smell despite the fact that a
substantial treatment has occurred already. For this reason an additional treatment is
included in the design lay out.
TER TI AR Y TRE ATM EN T
A horizontal or vertical Planted Filter (also called Root Zone System) acts through the
combined working of the filter material, the plants and roots in the device. The wastewater is
re-supplied with oxygen while passing through the planted gravel filter; the out coming
effluents are odour and smell free. Previously this device acted as the secondary treatment,
but since the Baffled Tank Reactor and the Anaerobic Filter are assuming most of the
treatment, the Planted Filter becomes less prominent in the overall design. The downgrading
of the device results in a drastic overall cost reduction with an additional benefit of large
amounts of reusable treated sewage because of the decrease in the high rate of
evapotranspiration, which normally occurs in large planted filters.
Horizontal Planted Filter: Wastewater is fed in at the inlet and flow slowly through the porous
substrate under the surface of the bed in a more or less horizontal path until it reaches the
outlet zone.
Vertical flow System: The wastewater is fed from top flow slowly down through the porous
substrate under the surface of the bed.
Operation and Maintainence of DEWATS System:
The most critical items in which operator intervention is necessary are:

Adjustment of water levels


Maintenance of flow uniformity (inlet and outlet structures)
Management of vegetation
Odor control
Maintenance of berms (walls)

Thus, there is a need to promote decentralized initiatives in waste water treatment by


providing incentives and a supporting policy environment and through capacity building of
implementing institutions and stake holders.

Page 96

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

Finally, concept DEWATS presents an opportunity to change the mind-set in the waste
management sector away from flush and forget systems to recycling in the form of waste
to resource systems thus aspiring to conserve and optimize all natural resources such as
water.
The average cost of making Dewats Plant is around Rs.25,000/- per KL flow per day. Cost of
1000 KL per day plant is Rs.1,25,00,000/- i.eRs. 12,500/- per KL per day.

13.6.3 Solid Waste Management


In absence of solid waste management the drains are blocked due to waste disposal leading
to unhygienic conditions and water contamination. As per Manual on Solid Waste
Management (SWM), Ministry of Urban Development and Poverty Alleviation, Government of
India 2000, the solid waste management is the responsibility of the urban local body. The
objective of SWM is to collect, store, treat and dispose the solid waste generated in the town
in an environmental friendly and socially satisfactory manner and using the most economical
means available. The estimated cost for SWM system is Rs. 144.52 lakhs which will involve
purchase of litter bins, containers for collection and storage of waste, equipments for lifting
the waste, vehicles for transportation of waste etc.

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT: IMPLEMENTATION OPTION


Cluster Approach: One of the suggestions is to encourage the cluster approach for a group
of surrounding urban local bodies to select a common landfill site to be operated on private
sector participation. A common landfill site thus selected will be run and managed by the
private operator. For sustainability of the project, ULB may collect the fees from the
households and commercial establishments like Rs.5 to 25 per month per household, Rs.25
to 50 per month in commercial areas. The tipping fee will be decided between the urban local
bodies and the private operator.
Treatment: Composting is suggested as one of the methods for treatment of organic waste.
It involves microbial decomposition of organic waste under anaerobic conditions. Some of
the composting schemes used in India are given in the table below.

VERMICOMPOSTING
The conventional system will be replaced through aerobic treatment (Vermicomposting), by
which the emission of methane will be avoided from the existing manure management
system. One of the advantages of this system is reducing greenhouse gas emission by
implementing aerobic treatment of manure i.e. vermicomposting manure management
system.
Investment:
This method requires investment in construction of windrows, shed, leak proofing floor, tools
& red worm (EiseneaFoetida) etc., which would prevent this alternative to occur. In addition
the project activity requires technical expertise, and regular skilled labour for rearing of the
worms & treatment of animal waste in aerobic conditions through vermicomposting.
On an average to treat the manure of 7 large ruminants (Cattle and Buffaloes) requires
following assets:
a) Land- 27 sq.m. flat land to construct the vermicompost windrows.
b) Red worms (EiseniaFoetida)-3 kg worms for inoculation in vermicompost windrows
c) Skill training- 15 days training for farmers.
d) Skill training- 5 days training for mason.
e) Investment- In addition to space, a total of Rs.10,500/- is required to construct the
vermicompost windrows with shed and leak proof floor and essential worms and tools
and training expenses.

Example: A case Strudy of Vermitank at HariMandir, Panchavati, Nashik (Source:Solid


and Liquid Waste Management in Rural areas- A tehnical note, Collaboration of Govt. of
India, and UNICEf)

Harimandir is a famous temple in Nashik.


Temple has a big garden around it and a kitchen for preparation of prasad.
The temple generates about 25 to 30 kgs of biodegradable waste daily.
Temple is amidst dense locality and hence disposal of waste a big problem and
expensive too.
A Vermitank was constructed for the temple under the technical guidance of
Nirmal Gram Nirman Kendra.
Main features:

Vermitank is a specialized unit constructed in brick masonry, capable of


converting biodegradable solid waste into high quality organic manure in a short
period.
Takes only 40-45 days for the conversion of garbage as compared to the
conventional methods which takes about 4-6 months.
Zero pollution: Vermicompost made in closed tanks is completely free of
pollution of air, water and soil.
No foul odour: The process does not emit any foul odour, hence can be
constructed in the vicinity of houses.
Organic manure: The process converts garbage into rich organic manure which
can either be used in gardens or can be sold at attractive prices.
Operation of vermitank:

Four pits which are connected by partition walls.


Four pits are used in cyclic manner one by one.
Each pit can accommodate garbage for 15 days. Thus duration of total cycle is
60 days.
When the fourth pit is full, the vermicompost in the first one is ready for
harvesting.
Feeding material:
Quantity- 25kgs to 30kgs per day.
Nature of garbage: agro-waste, garden waste, floral waste, kitchen waste etc.
Additional feeding material required- cow dung-min. 15kgs to 20kgs per week.
Earthworms required: 1kg for initial commissioning only.
Operation and maintenance:

Daily: Feeding of garbage.


Weekly: Addition of dung-once or twice a week.
Monthly: Harvesting of vermicompost, care to be taken to maintain moisture
level.
Costing and economic viability:

Total cost of erection : Rs.14,000/Recurring expenses per annum (Labour, water etc.)Rs.5,000/Avg. annual income from vermicompost Rs.13,000/Max. Payback period- 2 years

and ULB share in the ratio of 80:10:10.

13.6.5 Social Infrastructure


Social infrastructure is one of the major sectors of investment. Presently the town lacks
health facilities so there is a requirement of 100 bed hospital, maternity & child care centre
and education facilities. The costing has been done on the basis of Madhya Pradesh
Schedule of Rates, 2012. Since health and education infrastructure are not a part of
JNNURM components, the investment after excluding these costs is Rs. 2400 lakhs.
However, they have been shown in the table above just to reinstate their importance in
improving the living quality of the people of the town.

14. FINANCIAL OPERATING PLAN


14.1 INT ROD UC TIO N
This chapter presents the Financial and Operating Plan (FOP) in respect of Nagar Parishad
Baroda. The FoP will examine the financial feasibility and sustainability aspect in the context
of the fiscal management at the urban local bodies (ULB) level. The FOP is essentially a
multi-year forecast of finances of the ULBs for a medium term of 7 to 10 years with a view to
examine the sustainable of the identified new investments under the JNNURM. It deals with
the pattern of financing the new investment that considers alternative sources of financing
the vision and the accompanying strategy and programmes. It needs mention that the
identified investment is phased from 2009-10 to 2011-2012 and the FOP has also been
generated from the same period. The financial data of the Nagar Parishad is used for the
purpose and a baseline scenario where the past trends are assumed to continue is the basis
for projections.

14.2 FOP ASS U MPTIO N S FOR B AS ELI NE PROJECTIONS


The financial operating plan gives the multi year forecast of the urban local body by
examining the financial feasibility and sustainability. For Nagar Parishad Baroda, the
revenues basically comprise tax, non-tax revenues, funds for special schemes and grants for
special projects. The forecast of revenue is assumed to grow at past trends. Public works
and health facilities incur the maximum expenditure as already discussed in the chapter
Urban finance; the trend for expenditure is also expected to grow at past trends.

14.2.1

Forecast of income

In the case of Baroda Nagar Parishad, the income basically comprises tax, grants from the
state and central governments. In Baroda, tax revenue comprises the revenues from
property/ house tax, toll tax, passenger tax, road improvement tax, market tax and parking
fee. The main contribution to income is in the form of grants and contributions. Revenue
income shows an increasing trend owing to increasing revenue in forms of compensation
and return received. Capital receipts although has declined owing to decrease in capital
grants received. In a nut shell, income shows an increasing trend over the years.

14.3 INVEST MEN T REQ UIRE ME NTS


By 2035 the population is expected to reach 40 thousand in 2035 from 18 thousand in 2011.
Naturally the demand for the infrastructure has also grown several-fold. Therefore the
existing infrastructure needs considerable expansion.
In the above sections of this report, priority investment projects for the city of Baroda to be

14.4 PROJEC T SUS T AI N AB ILI TY AN AL Y SIS


Here we will focus on the financial sustainability of the new investment components planned
for Baroda Nagar Parishad.

14.4.1 Scenario I: No revenue reforms, capital commitment to be


financed by loan
In case there are no revenue reforms the additional capital expenditure has to be financed by
institutional borrowing. Even if Baroda Nagar parishad borrows at annual interest of 5% to be
repaid during the next 25 years with a grace period of 5 years, it will not be in a position to
repay the loan amount. The debt servicing commitment for the loan to the extent of the new
investment will make the finances unsustainable for a long time to come.

with fiscal reform
Property tax reform
The present status of the coverage of property tax is very low. The coverage of the house tax
is considerably low. Also there exists lot of gap between the tax demand and tax actually
collected. There have been suggestions for extending the coverage to the other properties
and also improve the collection. Further, the system of levy needs review. Presently only one
type of rate prevails for the entire city. Dividing the city in various zones is under

Page 108

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

consideration. Also, the list of exemptions will be reviewed. A minimum tax from all
categories of people will be considered.

Water charges reform


As per the financial budget of the local body, the revenue collection from water tax is very
low, the Nagar Parishad charges Rs. 40/- as the user charges. The charges are not
calculated at a uniform rate, Nagar Parishad also charges Rs. 250/- per household for
cleaning the toilets. If the water user charges are effectively implemented the revenue
generation of the local body will improve.

By implementation of the water user charges the local body will be in a position to completely
sustain the projects on its own but the capacity of the local body will improve.

14.5 FUNDI NG SO UR C ES
As observed from the Nagar parishads budget, it is in a poor fiscal competency and capacity
to fund the projects. The project funding is proposed from the State Grants and Central
grants. The role of Nagar parishad is envisaged in the Operation and Maintenance of the
projects and can levy charges to the people on the services. Under 74th Constitutional
Amendment Act-1992 CAA, an initiative was launched to decentralize power and strengthen
democracy at the local level. It provided ULBs with political, functional and fiscal
empowerment for good governance. Promoting peoples participation in planning is one of
the tools for achieving the vision of the City, better informed citizens and local government
can work together towards achieving the development objectives.
Properly Tax is one of the important sources of income for local bodies, by proposing the
property tax mapping for the City the local body will be in a position of cost recovery. Thus,
sound financial management, efficient system for collection of revenues, cost effective civic
amenities, equity and efficiency in delivery of services, implementation of the reforms as per
the 74th Constitutional Amendment Act-1992 (CAA) can be expected to improve the budget
of the Nagar Parishad and implementation of the proposed projects.
Strengthening the audit function in urban local bodies through technical guidance and
supervision and establishment of appropriate linkages with other state organizations can also
help in improving the budget of the local bodies.

15. ON & DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES


Summary: This chapter gives the detailed framework of developing vision and goals & strategies for
each and every sector helps in the development of town.

15.1 CITY VIS ION


The vision of the town is formed on the basis of consultative process with the stakeholders to
identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in the development of the town.
Based on the above SWOT analysis the vision has been framed for 2035. Following
objectives were of topmost priority in public consultations for envisioning the vision of the
town:
To generate higher service facilities for attracting various developmental activities,
and industries.
To generate facilities and activities to support small scale industries, informal sectors
and slum inhabitants and rural migrants
To improve the Transport Network system for faster communication and standard
linkages between the growth centers and their rural hinterlands.
To provide decent housing for all sections of people living in the town.
To manage the natural and human resources for development.
To provide high levels of physical and social infrastructure ensuring safe drinking
water, improved sanitation, well distributed education, health, recreation and cultural
facilities.
To design an effective development control mechanism with a high value of public
serviceability.
To reenergize the institutional and administrative system to manage future urban
development in the town.
Identifying a sustainable development mechanism that improves environment and
development.
The foundation for economic development in the town is agro based. Along with expansion in
production it is necessary to develop markets for trading activities and other services in the
town. Apart from local markets catering to basic requirements, specialized markets for
specific industrial goods also need to be established. However regulations would have to be
made for regulating the location and spread of these commercial units.
Such expansion is to be supported by an efficient transport system not only for traffic
movement but also for distribution of raw materials and finished products. This would lead to
an influx of population. This in turns would generate the need for more housing and other
infrastructure along with appropriate training and education facilities.
An efficiently trained man power is a key ingredient of economic diversification. It is
necessary to develop training institutes and colleges in Baroda that would impart training in
the various spheres of industrial activities.
All planning initiatives are to be designed based on a minimum-environmental-impact
approach. Industrialization cannot be planned at the cost of environmental degradation.
Apart from industries the other major causes of environmental degradation in Baroda are
Page 110

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

lack of solid waste and sewerage disposal system. Currently, all wastes are dumped along
the water bodies which are leading to degradation of environmental quality. Thus, regulatory
mechanisms governing the waste disposal, storm water drainage, reduction of air pollution
etc. are necessary inputs to urban management. A significant thrust area, therefore, within
the vision for the city is infrastructure development. This includes augmenting water supply
and designing a scientific sewerage and solid waste management system.
With increasing pressures of urbanization, it will further be important to consider a
development style that can encourage new developments within limited expansion of the
urban extents of the town. This is especially significant considering the costs of infrastructure
development, operation and maintenance which must be considered as part of the financial
operative costs of the town. This balance of development and optimization of costs may be
achieved by a balance between conservation and up-gradation of the existing city and
redevelopment/ expansion for new urban developments.
Till recently, urban growth was considered undesirable and all policies emphasized
preventing migration from rural areas. However, these policies have not succeeded and
urban areas are growing rapidly and becoming more and more degraded. But urban areas
are engines of development. These developments spread and have an influence on its
surroundings. Thus, instead of being confined within the city, its linkages and spatial
interaction with the surrounding growth centres is going to be emphasized on.
The vision for the town was developed in a participatory process through a series of
consultations with a variety of stakeholders, including the Baroda Nagar Parishad,
departments from the MP state government involved in the CDP process, representatives of
NGOs, industry and business associations, educationists, civil society groups, media,
members of state legislature. Additionally, the BNP put out a press release asking for inputs
to the CDP from the general public. It should be noted here that all consultations in
connection with the CDP formulation have received wide coverage in the English and
vernacular press.

Source: Analysis, Stakeholder Consultations


Based on the premise that water is the most essential requirement in life, maximum priority
should be given to it in terms of implementation. It is targeted that 100% of the people would
be covered by solid waste management system and water supply by 2015 and 2020
respectively. Since quantity of water available is less, the emphasis has to be on
improvement of efficiency. Solid waste would not require major constructions and moreover,
the site for disposal has already been identified. Drainage and sewerage would achieve
100% coverage by 2035. 100% coverage in terms of road would be achieved by 2035, as
that would involve construction of new roads, flyovers and by passes, up gradation of the
existing roads, identification of parking spaces, etc.

15.3 GO ALS AN D S TR ATEGIES


The CDP process has undergone extensive consultative process with its key stakeholders in
prioritizing the key sectors for investments and reform initiatives. The sector wise goals and
development strategies for achieving the city vision are:

15.3.1

Water Supply

The present supply of water supply is insufficient and the supply is not uniform for all the
parts of the city. As only a small percentage of the population is covered by piped water
supply the rest is served with hand pumps and wells. The quality of the water is also one of
the major concerns as water is treated by chlorination process only.
GOALS: Based on the analysis, stakeholder consultations and objectives of the project, the
sector wise goals for achieving the vision are:
Meeting the future demand and supply of water requirement to all the residents
including the urban poor.
100 percent coverage of piped water supply in the town.
Page 112

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

Per capita supply as per the UDPFI & CPHEEO standards.


Enhancement of water treatment capacities.
Conserve and utilize water bodies for the future needs.
Thus an effective and efficient water supply system is envisioned for the year 2035.
STRATEGIES: To achieve the above goals, the following development strategies need to be
adopted:
Augmentation of existing water supply to meet the present demand and future
requirements.
Entire town should be covered under Piped water supply.
Water Distribution system for the entire town by utilizing surrounding natural
resources.
Installation of water treatment plant for the proper utilization of treated waste water.
The above strategies suggests that more than half of the town is covered under piped water
supply, but especially in the core area near bus stand most of the supply lines condition not
maintained properly and those lines are in dilapidated stage. Those pipes should be
replaced, which could help in reducing T&D losses, and should be maintained in a proper
way for the future.
There is a need for the installation of water treatment plant for recycling of the waste water to
reuse, which helps in meeting the future water requirement. And another alternative source
of water for the future is Son River which is passing 5kms away from the town will helps in
providing the water and also helps in improving the per capita water supply to meet the
standards.

15.3.2

Sew erage

The town does not have a sewerage system. The sewer finds its way into the drains and
finally goes into the water bodies andnallahs, thus polluting them. This also leads to
unhygienic conditions and unhealthy environment in the town. The slum dwellers also lack
the sanitation facilities and are exposed to health related diseases.
GOALS: Based on the analysis, stakeholder consultations and objectives of the project, the
sector wise goals for achieving the vision are:
Provision of self-sustained sewerage system for the entire city.
To develop and manage the sewerage system, by providing the sufficient sewer
network, surface drains and suitable treatment plant. This will improve the quality of
citys environment.
STRATEGIES: To achieve the above goals, the following development strategies need to be
adopted:
Designing of proper sewage system by using the natural topography.
Providing the sufficient number of public toilets in the town.
Public participation for operation and maintenance of public toilets.
Sanitation facility in the slum areas.

Page 113

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

15.3.3

Solid Waste Management

The town lacks efficient sold waste management system. There is a need to have the system
for the entire town. Presently the entire town is not covered under segregation of waste thus,
household and hospital waste are mixed together and disposed in open areas and drains.
GOAL: The goal is to provide eco-friendly and sustainable solid waste management system
for the town.
STRATEGIES: To achieve the above goals, the following development strategies need to be
adopted:
Initiating door to door system of collection of waste in the town
Proper processing ofwaste by implementingsource segregation.
Public sectorparticipation (PSP) forestablishing suitablewaste processing plant.
Segregation of bio-medical waste with municipal waste and treatment as per the BioMedical Waste rule of MoEF
Providing adequate primary, secondary collection bins, vehicles for transportation of
waste
Outsourcing SWM including the collection of user charges.
Innovative technologies to treat the waste, like compost plants, landfill sites,
recyclable plants
Involve communities by creating awareness about the solid waste management plan.
The above strategies mentioned is to improve the SWM mechanism in the town especially in
the new developed which are taking place in the peripheral wards towards along the NH-75
towards southwest. For proper SWM need for the intervension of private parties which helps
in maintaining the town clean and environment friendly. Involvement of communities will
helps them by bringing awareness of segregation of wastes.

15.3.4

Traffic and Transportation

GOAL: Safe and reliable transport system that is sustainable and environment friendly
STRATEGIES: To achieve the above goals, the following development strategies need to be
adopted:
Provision of efficient and effective transportation system
Parking requirements as per the present and future demands to reduce the traffic
congestion on the roads
Discouraging privatevehicles usage byimposing parking feesand declaring busyareas
and core area markets as vehiclefree zone.
Removing of encroachments over roads
Improvement of Major Junction in the town.
Implementation of computerized signaling facilities
Up gradation of existing road capacities
Construction of a major logistic hub like a Transport Nagar

Page 114

City Development Plan: Baroda, Sheopur District

Road surface improvements to improve the traffic movement near junctions to


minimize the congestion.

15.3.5

Social Infrastructure

GOAL: Improving the quality of human capital through provision of adequate and efficient
services
STRATEGIES: To achieve the above goals, the following development strategies need to be
adopted:
Intermediate Hospital with separate beds for maternity & child care
Facilities for treatment of certain major diseases so that the residents do not have to
depend on other cities for treatment
24 hrs ambulance service
Technical Training Institutes for skill up gradation of the local people.

15.3.6

not a mere replacement of the existing system. The appropriate accounting system
provides all the information that is available in the present dispensation, besides
providing such additional information which will make the accounting records more
complete from a users perspective. In a nutshell, the proposed accounting system
supplements the cash accounting system, and does not supplant it. While cash
accounts serve the purpose of legislative control over public finances, an accrual
system is helpful in expanding the efficacy of fiscal management.
E-Governance using MIS & GIS
All information may be integrated with the computerization of tax maps and MIS
systems. e- Governance programmes will be targeted to improve effectiveness of
birth and death registration, complaint redressal, payment of user charges, etc.
Property Tax Reforms with GIS
Property Tax is one of the most important revenues of urban local bodies and is
one of the mandatory reforms under JNNURM. Property tax not only includes the
property tax but also incudes other taxes like service taxes and cesses. Service
tax includes water tax, sewerage tax, scavenging tax, drainage tax, conservancy
tax, education tax, fire tax, education cess and tree cess. A proper mapping of
properties using the GIS system helps the local bodies to have a full record of the
properties under their jurisdiction and put them under the tax cover.

Budget for Urban Poor


As per JNNURM guidelines, ULBs have to undertake reforms for allocating of
funds in their budgets specifically for basic services to the urban poor. The ULB
should assign a percentage of total estimated municipal income that would be
utilized for provision of housing and basic services for the urban poor. The
provision of basic services as per the 7 point Charter of JNNURM. Thus, the
allocating of funds will ensure equity, efficiency, transparency and accountability of
the local body.
Basic services for Urban Poor
This is one of the mandatory reforms to be implemented by the urban local bodies
under JNNURM. Its goal is to provide basic services (including water supply and
sanitation) to all poor including security of tenure and improved housing at
affordable prices and ensure delivery of social services of education, health and
social security to poor people. Thus, by implementing this reform the urban poor
will get better access to services, quality of life will improve and hence decrease
their vulnerability. Its objective is also to involve the poor people in decision making
process.
Levy of User Charges
Under the JNNURM mission, levy of user chargers on different municipal services
like water supply, sewerage, solid waste management, public transport etc. is also
one of the reforms with an objective of creating effective linkages between asset
creation and maintenance and finally leading to self sustainability of the local body.
