Observations on Municipal Accounts


 CUR: Capital Utilization ratio: Average Capital utilization ratio of Nasrullahganj Nagar
Parishad is 1.10 which is more than 1, indicating that Nasrullagunj‟s capital expenditure is
more than its income. It also means that they are utilizing their revenue income for capital
purposes.
 Operating Ratio: The average operating ratio of the Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is 0.64
which is less than 1, indicating that Nasrullagunj‟s revenue expenditure levels are lower than
the revenue income generated. This might also indicate that the revenue income is being
utilized for paying off capital expenditure since capital utilization ratio is more than one in 3
years .
 Salaries expenditure to revenue income: If we look at this ratio we can observe that
approximately 34% of the revenue income is utilized for paying the staff employed by Nagar
parishad. After paying off the salary not much revenue income is left to be utilized for other
productive revenue purposes.
Vision for Nasrullahganj Town
To take the town ahead, a vision statement for Nasrullahganj town has been finalized after
consultations with Municipality officials, elected representatives and other stakeholders:

“A sustainable city that provides adequate and equitable access of urban services for all its
citizens along with employment opportunities for everyone”

To achieve the desired vision, Sector goals and detailed strategies have been formulated for 1)
Physical Infrastructure, 2) Social Infrastructure, 3) Economic Development, 4) Environment, 5) Urban
Poor and 6) Urban Governance and Institutional Development.

Action Plans – List of Identified Projects


It is realized that there is significant project level intervention required for Nasrullahganj to provide its
citizens with the desired services. For this, sector strategies have been formulated for the critical
sectors and a list of actual projects for each of the sector has been identified with consultations with
stakeholders of the city. The lists of the sector wise identified projects are:
Water Supply
1. Source Augmentation: Currently, the extraction of water is done through tube wells at various
places with increasing population and economic development there would be more requirement of
water. Thus, there is a need to encourage additional sources of water. This project needs to be
developed completely by 2015. The additional water requirement can be met by adopting either of
the following options:
 Drawing additional water from Narmada River.
 Sourcing water from the rain water harvesting

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj vi


2. Water treatment facility: As there is no treatment facility available in the town, there is a need to
install treatment infrastructure with a capacity of 5.6 MLD by 2035. By 2015 treatment
infrastructure needs to be developed for 3.68 MLD water.
3. Distribution Network: The proposed water supply scheme includes the construction of additional
24.98 km of distribution network by 2015 and 39.63 km of distribution network by 2035.
4. Elevated Storage Capacity: In future with the increasing demand there would be need to
increase the capacity of elevated reservoirs up to 1.23 MLD by 2015 and 2.19 MLD by 2035.
5. Metering System: 100% properties need to be assessed and water meters need to be installed
in all the properties with water connection, so that revenue income of the Nagar Parishad can be
increased.
Sewerage
DEWAT System: As the population of Nasrullahganj town lives in a very small area, and all areas are
not contiguous and are fragmented, it would be very beneficial for the town (both financially and for
operations & maintenance) to implement Decentralized Waste Water Treatment System (DEWATS)
to dispose of its 5.26 MLD (by 2035) of generated sewage.
Sanitation
Public Convenience Systems: To provide safe and sufficient sanitation facilities to the citizens,
mainly slum dwellers, around 37 more public toilet seats need to be added to the existing
infrastructure in Nasrullahganj by 2035.
Solid Waste Management
1. Collection Infrastructure:
 Primary Collection: Augmentation of primary collection involves capacity addition in the area
of equipment‟s used in the waste collection including community bins. As per the demand
assessment, on a priority need, additional 13 handcarts would be needed for short term span
and additional 33 handcarts would be needed for long term span. Also currently, the practice
being followed includes a majority of residents dumping waste outside their houses, or in
drains/ vacant land or at the designated collection point/ dustbin. This results in scattering of
waste which results in poor collection. To achieve an effective waste collection, practice of
door-to-door collection should be initiated which needs to be supported by necessary
awareness generation programmes and capacity building of the staff.
 Secondary Collection: Secondary collection involves transportation of waste from collection
points to the disposal site. At present, secondary collection is carried out by 2 tractors. These
tractors are unable to collect the waste from the internal narrow streets. On a priority,
secondary collection system should be strengthened to carry out waste transportation in an
effective manner. All the waste transportation vehicles should be covered to avoid the spilling
of waste. By 2015, 2 more tractors would be required if one tractor is making one trip a day
and by 2035, total 6 tractors would be required.
2. Development and augmentation of the landfill site: The demand-gap assessment reveals the
generation of 12.18 MT of waste in the town by 2035. The current available disposal site has 4.3
acres area which is sufficient till 2035. The collected waste is just dumped at the site without any
treatment or segregation. The dumping site would have to be well-equipped to ensure proper
waste segregation and composting facilities.
3. Development of Vermi-Compost Plant: It is proposed to dispose the waste generated through
Vermi composting which involves the stabilization of organic solid waste through earthworm
consumption which converts the material into worm castings. The composting and segregation

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj vii


would help in some revenue generation for Nagar Parishad and it will also reduce waste amount
to be dumped in the landfill site.
Drainage
1. Cleaning / desilting of existing drains: As an immediate measure, Nagar Parishad should aim
at timely cleaning and maintenance of existing drainage network. Under this project, major natural
drains should be given proper attention as they are flowing in the Nagar Parishad area.
2. Construction of storm water drains: The Nagar Parishad should undertake the construction of
Pucca Open and Pucca closed drains in phased manner. This construction may be done in
tandem to the construction/up-gradation of roads. These construction activities would have to be
carried out on an immediate basis to address the existing and future demand-supply gap. . In
short-term, 3.20 km of new drains need to be developed and addition of 12 km of network needs
to be done beyond 2035.
3. Up gradation of existing drains: The Nagar Parishad is also required to undertake drain up-
gradation works for the existing drains in town. In the short term, 24 km of existing Kutcha open
drains should be upgraded to Pucca open or closed drains.
4. Development of Root Zone Treatment System (RZTS): It is observed that the sewage flowing
through nallahs joins Rivers in untreated condition and creates heavy risk of river pollution. Storm
water can be treated as well with RZTS after removal of settle able substances. It is a low-cost
and maintenance free option that uses the capacity of plants (especially certain reeds – hence
also called reed bed technology) to absorb contaminants and structurally modify them for treating
water.
Traffic and Transportation
1. Road Construction: To address the current gap of per capita road length and the future demand,
the Nagar Parishad new road formation of 8.51 up to 2015, and would need to construct around
16 km of additional road by 2035. The Nagar Parishad should on a priority basis identify the
stretches and areas where roads at present do not exist and or have poor connectivity. Also the
areas where future residential growth is anticipated or planned, road construction can be
undertaken.
2. Road Up gradation: The Nagar Parishad would have to upgrade the internal roads from their
existing type to CC or BT category. The road up gradation may be taken up on the priority basis.
In short-term there is a need to upgrade 15 km of road stretch and beyond 2015 only 0.62 km of
road would be required to upgrade.
3. Signalization and Signage: The arterial road passes through the town connecting National
Highway with many villages. This may increase the flow of vehicles on the road in the future. This
endangers the pedestrians crossing the road. Thus there is need for signalization and proper
signage at few points.
4. Parking Spaces: With the growing number of vehicles and increasing commercial activities in the
town, issue of lack of parking spaces becomes much more relevant. The consultations with
stakeholders have concluded that parking spaces can be developed near the key commercial
area of the town.
Street Lighting and Fire Fighting
1. Additionn of Streetlights: The Nagar Parishad needs to install a total of 980 street lights by
2015 and 1554 street lights to match the demand of 2035.
2. Energy Saving: Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should replace all the tube lights with CFLs. A
small exercise was conducted to evaluate the benefits of the replacement of tube lights with CFLs

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj viii


in the town. It was observed that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad would save around Rs. 2.6 lakh
annum in electricity bill.
3. Fire Fighting: Parishad has two fire fighting vehicle. To ensure a safety against the fire, Nagar
Parishad should also undertake the construction of fully equipped fire stations.
Health
1. Primary Health Centre: As per the UDPFI guidelines, the city need bed capacity of 54 by year
2015 and 75 by 2025 and 97 by 2035. At present, city has 50 beds. There are only five doctors.
2. Nursing Home: According to the estimates, a nursing home with bed capacity of 32 is required
for the town in 2035. At present the town lacks a government or private Nursing Home.
3. Dispensary: Currently eight dispensaries are present in the town which is sufficient till 2035.
Education
1. Primary Schools: The overarching goal in this sector is to achieve 100% literacy rate in the city.
Nasrullahganj requires one more number of schools by 2015; by 2035 it would require nine
primary schools. The infrastructure provision within the schools is in very poor condition and this
has to be upgraded.
2. Senior Secondary Schools: Three Middle schools are present now and three more would be
required by 2035.
Socio-Cultural Facilities
Currently there is one community hall and one playground. By 2035 there will be requirement of two
more community hall and playground each.
Urban Poor
Interventions needed have to be completed by 2015. These interventions are:
1. Prepare a Slum Free City plan
2. Comprehensive slum mapping and need for housing
Environment
1. Air Quality: Periodic monitoring and review is essential to check air quality. Suitable plantations
or green cover should be provided on major routes to supplement better air quality. This would
partially be addressed by the development of Parks in the town and a massive tree plantation
drive.
2. Water Pollution: Efforts/schemes should be designed to check the diversion of sewage flow into
Nevaj River through appropriately located sewage treatment plants. This aspect would be
addressed by the development and up gradation of Sewerage & Sanitation facilities, Storm water
drainage infrastructure and strengthening of solid waste collection/transportation system.
3. Water Bodies Conservation: For water body conservation and rejuvenation, proper attention
should be given to the local pond. Also river front development needs to be brought in to improve
the situation of the Navej River.
4. Green Spaces: A critical issue that needs to be addressed on the priority basis is the
development of green spaces within the town limits to enhance the overall quality of the
environment.
Economic Development
Development of Small scale industries: Focus should be on the agro-based industries. A land
should be identified either within the municipal limits or near to the city boundary and proposal should
be sent to the appropriate authorities for the same. This would thrust to the employment generation
activities result into the overall up-liftmen of the society. Since, agricultural production of Soy Bean
and Pulses is high in the town and these are exported from here to other towns and state for
processing. Agro-Based Industries based on Pulses and Soya bean should be increased.
Urban Governance

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj ix


1. Capacity Building: There is a need for training of the existing staff and new staff to increase the
productivity of the work. Workshops and awareness programmes can be conducted.
2. Computerization: Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should initiate the process of computerization in
its administration. Computerization will benefit most of its functions ranging from municipal
accounting to tax management. The introduction of E-Governance will help in smoothening the
processes and improvement in the efficiency.
3. GIS Mapping: A GIS mapping of the city properties will be very helpful in the provision of efficient
services to the citizens. This would also help in keeping a tab on tax evaders.

4. DPR for Traffic and Transportation improvement plan for the town.
5. DPR for solid waste management with focus on scientific disposal and mechanized handling of
waste with private sector participation. Also, cluster based approach to tackle solid waste problem
should be studied in detail.
Broad Actions to achieve the City Vision and Sector Goals
Nasrullahganj‟s ability to improve on its financial performance hinges primarily on its ability to sustain
and improve on the revenue growth noticeable in recent years. Some of the actions needed in this
regard are:
1. Conduct a zero-base assessment of skill gaps and manpower needs of ULBs to ascertain the
appropriate manpower plan in terms of skill sets and experience/seniority. This is particularly
relevant given the recent developments, specifically in urban planning and GIS, municipal
accounting and systems, e-governance and modern practices in infrastructure service delivery.
2. Address critical operational areas through focused training and capacity building interventions,
particularly in the areas of a) Engineering and project development, b) Accounting and Finance
and c) Use of CAD/GIS applications in Town Planning and Engineering functions.
3. Develop / enforce technical standards with specific applicability to development of municipal
projects.
4. Nasrullahganj can increase its own income by FY ending 2015 through focused interventions in
the following areas.
 Property tax: – through revision in ARV, widening assesse base and closer scrutiny.
 User charges – through increased penetration of water connections and new sewerage
connections could potentially triple user charges income from the current levels.
Financial Operating Plan and Investment Capacity

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj xi


Given the existing financial position of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad, the revenue and capital
accounts are projected against the growth scenario and assumptions presented above. The City
Investment Plan (CIP) prepared in the previous chapter shows that the total investment required to
develop Nasrullahganj City is Rs. 32.74 crore at constant prices till 2015 (of the total Rs. 76.24 crore
investment identified for funding till 2035). It includes about Rs. 4.39 crore towards Education and
Health sector, which are not provided by Nagar Parishad. Hence for FOP is generated from the
sustainable investment point of view in line with current growth trends against the identified
investment for Nagar Parishad of Rs. 14.74 crore at constant prices till 2015, which excludes
investment required for Health and Education sector.
Base Investment Capacity
Base Investment Capacity is estimated considering business as usual case, where Nasrullahganj
Nagar Parishad has not taken any grant under UIDSSMT scheme and has not done any reforms to
increase their revenue income. At this scenario Nagar Parishad will be able to sustain only 6.6 % of
the total investment identified for year 2015, which is about Rs. 1.74 crore at constant price and Rs.
2.08 crore at current price.
Impact of different scenario’s to assess investment sustainability
With reforms in Property Tax, Water Charges and Sewerage charges
This case assumes the reforms in property tax, Water and Sewerage have been implemented and
accordingly the investment capacity has increased by Rs. 0.79 crore above the base investment
capacity. These reforms will increase the total sustainable capacity to 9.6%.

Reforms and State Grants, without debt Funding


This case assumes that all the reforms suggested above are being implemented and UIDSSMT
grants are also availed. In this scenario Nagar Parishad‟s sustainable capacity will increase to 39.6 %,
which is 30% in addition to scenario 1. Now Nagar Parishad will be able to sustain investment of
about Rs. 10.44 crore at constant price and Rs. 10.48 crore at current price.

Reforms and UIDSSMT grants along with debt Funding


This case assumes that Nagar Parishad can increase their sustainable capacity by taking debt from
any financial institution or private banks in addition to the implementation of reforms suggested above
and grants under with UIDSSMT grants. In this scenario can sustain up to 50.50 % of the total
investment identified, which is 11 % more than without debt funding scenario. Now Nagar Parishad
will be able to sustain investment of about Rs. 13.32 crore at constant price and Rs. 15.91 crore at
current price.
From the above analysis, it is very clear that ULB alone even with the grant support under various
schemes and reforms will not be able to implement 100% of the projects identified under the City
Investment Plan (CIP). But they can substantially increase their sustainable capacity with these
reforms. So, it is recommended that ULB along with the support from UADD, GoMP should try to
develop few projects (like SWM and street light CFL conversion) on PPP model and additional grant
support from GoMP.
It is also recommended that on the same lines of the National Urban Information System (NUIS)
programme for strengthening of information system at Municipal Corporation level, GoMP should also
provide support to all the local bodies in Madhya Pradesh, which are not covered in the mentioned
programme.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj xxii


1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background
Madhya Pradesh is urbanizing at a fast rate and the Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) in the state are
facing the challenge of meeting the requirements of the growing population with limited technical and
financial resources. The Government of India (GoI) and Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP)
have initiated a number of programmes to meet the growing demands of infrastructure and service
delivery. These include both GoI schemes [including Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme for
Small and Medium Towns (UIDSSMT) and Integrated Housing and Slum Development Programme
(IHSDP)] and GoMP initiated schemes; such as the Madhya Pradesh Urban Services for the Poor
(MPUSP), a DFID assisted program, which links reform with investment in infrastructure for the poor.
After the assessment of the performance of the ULBs and their capacity for exploiting the above said
resources it was felt that such a plan is essential, not only for accessing GoI/GoMP funding but also
for providing a strategic framework for converging and co-coordinating various development inputs
towards positioning the city on a development path.
Therefore, the Urban Administration and Development Department (UADD) of Government of
Madhya Pradesh (GoMP) has launched an initiative to support 5 Municipal councils, 245 Nagar
Parishads and 30 urban centers in the state in preparing City Development Plans (CDPs). This
initiative aims to provide a comprehensive Medium Term Strategy (25 years) and a City Investment
Plan (CIP) for each Urban Local Body, based on which the concerned ULB will be able to access
funds under schemes of Government of India (GoI) and GoMP as well as from its own sources for
implementation of priority actions and projects, identified from this exercise. The document was also
envisaged to provide a Financial Operating Plan (FOP) to direct the ULBs for mobilizing various
financial resources to implement the identified projects, adhering to the JNNURM‟s CDP preparation
toolkit and keeping in view the Master Plan (wherever exists) provisions as prepared by Town and
Country Planning Department. The preparation of the CDP will take advantage of the Revised CDP
preparation toolkit/Heritage cities toolkit prepared under JNNURM and UADD/CMAMP guidelines. It is
also expected that the CDP would provide Urban Reform Action Plan for the ULBs as envisaged
under JNNURM.
In this regard, MPUADD retained ICRA Management Consulting Services Limited (IMaCS) for
assistance in preparation of City Development Plan for Nasrullahganj town.

1.2. Objectives and Scope of Work


This exercise is centre on the following broad objectives:
 The CDP will scale up existing urban development and poverty alleviation schemes within a
comprehensive and coherent strategic planning framework in order to ensure optimal benefit
from available resources for the citizens of the ULBs.
 The CDP should aim to catalyse new thinking and provoke debate through a consultative
stakeholder driven process. The vision and strategic thrusts of the CDP will be built around
the lessons and findings of a comprehensive and rigorous stakeholder consultation and
documentation process.
 The CDP will generate specific priority actions and projects that can be the basis for
mobilizing funding from diverse sources.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 1


1.3. Description of Tasks (as outlined in RFP)
The list of tasks followed for the preparation of the CDP of Nasrullahganj (as outlined by MPUADD)
are detailed below:

1.3.1. Inception
This stage includes a preliminary analysis of the town including strengths and weaknesses of the city
and finalization of the approach and methodology for the preparation of CDP for the town. This stage
also gives an understanding of what impedes service delivery and management within the existing
set-up and what contributes to better service provision. This stage consists of the following tasks:

Reconnaissance
During the first week of the assignment a reconnaissance exercise has been conducted, which
included the following activities:

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


Heads of Departments, Councillors, representatives of on-going urban programmes, etc.
2. Determination of the feasibility and composition of a city level Steering Group (comprising of
Citizen forum) for the CDP
3. Formation of Citizen Forum comprising of 15 eminent persons from different walks of life.
4. Obtain base maps, and available secondary data on the city‟s demographics, master plan, reports
prepared under past and current urban development programmes, ULB‟s annual budget reports,
other reports giving status of service delivery, and other relevant documents on heritage listing,
data on slums and urban poor, government policy documents, etc.
5. Identification of the line departments and key stakeholders for urban service delivery and
development such as PHED, Town and Country Planning Department, Development Authority,
SADA, local chamber of commerce, NGOs, CBOs, religious organizations, financial institutions,
commerce and industry etc.
6. Field reconnaissance to determine growth patterns of the city, characteristics of slums and
environmentally sensitive areas etc.
7. Identification of economic opportunities and blocks in tapping these (eg. Tourism, industry etc.)
8. Mapping: Preparation of City level base maps using Auto-CAD/GIS.
Workshop-I: “Kick-off workshop”
A one day kick-off workshop has been organized to familiarize the stakeholders with the purpose,
process, and expected outcomes of the CDP, and build enthusiasm, understanding and commitment
to the CDP. This kick off workshop also helped in deriving a consensus among the stakeholders in
firming the process and agreeing upon a structured programme to take the CDP forward. The
formation of the Steering Group is also announced as along with the key sectors for which detailed
analysis has been carried out.

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

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


etc.
 City level planning and service providing agencies viz., ULB, Town and Country Planning
Department, Development Authority, SADA etc.
 Line Departments of the state government such as pollution control board, health department,

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 2


 Private sector agencies such as chambers of commerce and industry,
 Non-governmental and community based organizations
 Representatives of the poor communities
 Representatives of on-going urban development programmes
 Representatives of media, academic institutions, etc.
Inception report
At the completion of this phase, an inception report consisting of a preliminary analysis of the town
and final approach and methodology for CDP preparation has been submitted to the ULB. Further to
which a presentation on the same report has been undertaken with the stakeholders to seek their
inputs on the approach and methodology suggested in the inception report.

Sector analysis
Based on the interactions with various stakeholder groups (meetings, workshops, focus group
discussions, etc.) and review of relevant documents (publications, reports, GOs, resolutions,
procedures, laws etc.) an analysis of the current situation in all the identified sectors has been
undertaken. This sector analysis has been carried out in the consultation with local counterparts and
further a methodology for the sector analysis has been developed, which includes the following:

 Study of economic opportunity and potential for Local/regional economic development, with
special reference to the poor
 Physical infrastructure demand and gap assessment (considering service level
benchmarking)
 Transport study with emphasis on low cost public transport and livelihoods
 Heritage conservation and tourism
 Environmental sustainability
 Access to housing, employment and social and environmental services by the poor
 Health and Education services gap in the town
 Sectoral Issues addressed under the Master Plan (as prepared by the TCPD)
City profile
The findings from the sector analysis are used to prepare the City Profile consisting of the
assessment of the existing situation in all identified sectors, emerging issues, SWOT analysis and
projection of the present gaps and future requirements. Development of city vision and sector goals
and strategies

Discussion on strategies, priorities and major actions that may be required in the next five years to
move towards the vision 2035 have been discussed to develop city vision, sector strategies and
strategies.

Sector strategies
After reviewing relevant cases from national and international best practices, learning are identified to
explore if the same can be applied in relevant sectors to bring in improved and efficient ways of
working.

This stages also includes consultations with the local counterparts to develop sector strategies in
consonance with the city vision and sector goals.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 3


Vision, Goal and Strategies
The output expected in the second phase is city vision, sector goals and possible alternate strategies
and some actions and projects.

1.3.2. Development of strategies and priority actions

Evaluation of strategies
The strategies are evaluated from the perspective of their contribution to achieving the vision and
sector goals. Criteria for prioritizing the strategies, programmes and projects have been developed in
consultations with the Steering Group.
Analyze governance framework and reform action plans
Based on the consultations with the ULB officials, representatives of reform programmes and local
counterparts an examination of the reforms at state and local levels has been carried out to
understand whether these reforms are sufficient to support the vision and strategic plan and to sustain
the planned interventions.
Sector Analysis, Vision, Strategies and Projects Report
The output of this phase is outlining the goals, strategies, priority actions and projects with an
estimate of preliminary funding requirements in each sector.
Workshop-II: “ULB level workshop”
At the completion of this phase a 2nd ULB level workshop has been organized (supported by a
presentation to the stakeholders).
1.3.3. Preparing a City Investment Plan (CIP) and a financing strategy

Project costing and determination of funding sources


Consultations with the different stakeholders has determined the types and sources of financing to be
adopted for priority projects from internal resources, state and central governments, local financial
institutions, donors, and through public-private partnerships.
Scheduling of priority actions and developing a City Investment Plan (CIP)

Based on the availability of resources, logical sequencing of actions and potential for immediate
implementation, a City Investment Plan (CIP) has been prepared in consultation with ULB to lays out
the cost and revenue estimates of all priority projects in the next five years. The preparation of the
CIP is a reiterative process requiring adjustments to individual projects as well as changes in
scheduling to make the whole package work financially. The City Investment plan is supported with a
Financial Operating Plan (FOP).
1.3.4. Draft CDP
After feedback from stakeholders a draft CDP for the town including the CIP and FOP will be finalize.
Workshop-III: “Workshop on Draft CDP”

This Draft Report has been presented to the stakeholders of the town in third workshop. The objective
of this workshop was to seek an endorsement of the City Development Plan from the stakeholder
group present and agree on procedures for performance monitoring.

Performance Monitoring
Performance- monitoring/sustainability indicators have been identified to assist ULB in review the
progress and outcomes of the CDP on an annual basis and to enable them in setting the agenda for
the future.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 4


1.3.5. Final CDP document
Further to this, a CDP document has to be finalized after incorporating the feedbacks from the
workshop and the inputs from the 2nd Stage State Level discussion. This document would be given to
ULB, along with a summary of the CDP for publication and wider dissemination by the ULB.

1.4. Approach
The City Development Plan (CDP) is the Nagar Parishad‟s strategy that presents both a vision of a
desired future perspective for the town and the Parishad‟s organization, and mission statements on
how the Nagar Parishad, together with other stakeholders, intends to work towards achieving the
short term and long-term vision. CDP should be very comprehensive and should cover all the aspects
where town needs intervention. To achieve a comprehensive CDP, we have adopted few guiding
principles as discussed below.

1.4.1. Guiding Principle


We outline below the guiding principles underlying our approach for this exercise. These are drawn
based on our experience in working on City Development Strategies/Plans and from the expectations
outlined by MPUADD.

Sharp focus on the need and expected outcomes


We see the CDP as a critical intervention to provide a strategic framework for converging and co-
coordinating various development inputs in a holistic manner to facilitate engaging the town
administration and stakeholders towards crystallizing vision, strategy, actions for taking the town on a
development path and as a means to enable access to funds from GoI (Government of India) under
various government schemes / funding programs of GoI and Government of Madhya Pradesh
(GoMP).

JNNURM Toolkit(s) as a guiding framework


As advised by MPUADD, the preparation of the CDP will take advantage of the Revised CDP
preparation toolkit/Heritage cities toolkit prepared by GoI under JNNURM and UADD/CMAMP
guidelines in terms of the structure and process outlined in the toolkit along with integration with
current initiatives for developing a strategic framework for development agenda in the next 25 year
time horizon.

Capture insights from and Build on existing / ongoing initiatives


We would draw on initiatives underway and build on initiatives being undertaken including the overall
spatial planning and policy framework of the existing Master Plan, planning for reform and
participatory slum improvement process put in place under MPUADD, annual plans and proposals in
District Plan for BRGF / Urban Renewal Action Plans.

Enable Participation through a structured Multi-stakeholder Consultative Process


We shall follow a structured consultative process through creation of appropriate institutional
structures (including nomination of a Nodal Officer and the Steering Group as suggested by
MPUADD). We see participation of key stakeholders including elected representatives, staff of Nagar
Parishad, parastatal agencies and other institutions, policy makers and the citizens to participate and
plan for spatial, social and economic development of the town as a critical requirement.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 5


Action orientation and resource mobilization
We also see the CDP as a means to prepare the ground for identification of projects and time-bound
interventions along with evaluation of financial resources requirements, gaps and potential sources for
mobilizing funding beyond existing programmes. The scope for private sector development and
participation and access to external resources shall be explored. Further as indicated linkages of
these actions with annual plans and budget cycles of the municipal corporation will also be
incorporated.
1.4.2. Approach and Methodology
With an Aim of developing ownership of the plan amongst the stakeholders, the Nasrullahganj CDP
has been developed in close consultation with all stakeholders. In this way, Nasrullahganj Nagar
Parishad and others are responsible for development of town accountable for their mission
statements, actions and expected outcomes. We have conducted this exercise in 3 Modules as
shown in Exhibit 1-1 and detailed below.

1.4.3. Module I: Inception and Kick off


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

1. To put in place institutional mechanisms including the formation of Steering Group for conduct of
the assignment in a structured consultative manner as envisaged
2. To engage with stakeholders and arrive at a shared understanding of the objectives and expected
outcomes of the study
3. Apart from this, our team have used this as a preparatory stage to
a. Review and analyse the current status and unique features of the city with regard to the state
of its development, systems and procedures, as equally its institutional and financial context.
b. Identify the strengths and weaknesses in the city‟s development and to develop an
understanding of what impedes infrastructure provision and service delivery and
management within the existing set-up and what contributes to better service provision.
c. Do a rapid assessment through interactions with stakeholders and initial data collection to
capture previous and on-going development initiatives to factor the same in the
Consultations and Analysis module.

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

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


Heads of Departments, Councillors, representatives of on-going urban programmes, etc.
2. Determine feasibility and composition of a city level Steering Group (comprising of Citizen forum)
for the CDP
3. Citizen forum has been formed comprising of 15 eminent persons from different walks of life.
4. Obtain base maps, and available secondary data on the city‟s demographics, master plan, reports
prepared under past and current urban development programmes, ULB‟s annual budget reports,
other reports giving status of service delivery, and other relevant documents on heritage listing,
data on slums and urban poor, government policy documents, etc.
5. Identify the line departments and key stakeholders for urban service delivery and development
such as PHED, Town and Country Planning Department, Development Authority, SADA, local
chamber of commerce, NGOs, CBOs, religious organizations, financial institutions, commerce
and industry etc.
6. Field reconnaissance to determine growth patterns of the city, characteristics of slums and
environmentally sensitive areas etc.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 6


7. Identify economic opportunities and blocks in tapping these (eg. Tourism, industry etc.)
8. Mapping : Preparation of City level base maps using Auto-CAD/GIS

This module has culminated in conduct of a one-day kick off workshop with stakeholders. The
purpose of the kick-off workshop was to build participative energy and commitment of stakeholders for
the study through articulation of the purpose, process, and expected outcomes of the CDP, and
achieving a shared understanding of the same. The kick off workshop has helped in deriving a
consensus along with the stakeholders firming the process and agreeing upon a structured
programme to take the CDP forward. Further the institutional structures including the Steering Group
for the consultative process has also been spelt out during this workshop. Following the workshop, we
had submitted an Inception Report, which was followed with a presentation to MPUADD and the ULB.

Exhibit 1-1 Approach and Methodology

1.4.4. Module II: Consultations and Analysis


Module II includes a Situation assessment followed by a) crystallizing a Vision for the City and sector
level goals and strategies and b) evaluation of strategies and finalizing priority actions at a sector
level.

This module starts with the Situation assessment covering Sector level analysis and development of
the Town profile, moving on to formulation of a Vision for the town and translating them into
Strategies, Priority Projects and Reform Actions. While there are self-contained sub-modules within
this step, we have clubbed them into Module II, given the highly consultative as well as data
collection/reconnaissance intensive nature of these steps and the iterative linkages between these
steps.

Given the multiple and heterogeneous set of stakeholders involved, we have use a range of
instruments to capture diverse inputs for the exercise as indicated below:

 Workshops – As suggested by MPUADD


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

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 7


 One-on-One meetings/interviews – Town officials, Government Departments, Chief Municipal
Officer, Elected representatives, MLA/MPs, and other important opinion makers.
 Limited quantitative surveys – To get a pulse of wider perceptions and priorities of the general
public.

In addition, we had a significant on-the-ground interaction effort through our research and support
staff to compile data and information from the cities. From our experience in handling such studies,
very often it is critical to spend substantial time with ULB staff/do sample based field visits given the
data and information availability related limitations. Such interactions enabled us capture qualitative
insights and served in providing surrogate inputs to validate and overcome the generally faced
limitations of data availability. For instance, we have collected budget documents at the beginning at
the study and do the analysis of financials in parallel. A time period wise analysis of revenue and
costs along with their drivers enabled us to spot data discrepancies in the initial stages and helped us
to identify areas where greater time is required for data collection/scrutiny. Similarly in the area of
service levels benchmarking, we have done a physical reconnaissance of municipal assets to validate
reports made available to us.

We concurred the activities and steps identified by MPUADD in the Terms of Reference in moving
from a Situation Assessment to formulate the City Vision and translating that to Sector strategies and
priority projects. Some specifics of our approach along each of these steps are described below:

Sector Analysis
We have chosen the specific sectors/issues for preparing detailed sectoral papers, based on the
criticality of the sector (as viewed by the stakeholders) and the baseline status of the prevailing
service levels in that city. While the exact list of sectors has been finalized during consultations, an
indicative list of sectors that came out as critical areas include the following:

a. Water Supply
b. Sanitation and Sewerage
c. Solid Waste Management
d. Urban Housing
e. Public Transportation
f. Social amenities and infrastructure including Schools, Hospitals, Markets
g. Heritage & Tourism

The sector level analysis covered the following steps.

a. Review the baseline status of the sector in terms of operational service level and financial
indicators vis-a-vis benchmarks/norms and desired levels of service to arrive at the
normative gaps.
b. Identification of the possible alternatives for improving service levels, policy
changes/implications and the magnitude of investment required to improve service levels in a
time-bound manner.
c. Developing a sector strategy, targets for service level improvement and a list of potential
priority projects to be undertaken along with an expected level of improvement in service
levels through implementation of these projects.

These steps has been undertaken in consultation with local counterparts. While carrying out the
sector level analysis, aspects relating to the need for provisioning for urban poor, broad review of
cost-benefits including social and environmental impacts were factored.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 8


City Profile
In profiling the City and crystallizing its SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat), we looked
at slightly wider issues beyond sectoral dimensions to cover the following:

1. Spatial growth patterns and drivers


2. Economic growth drivers - intrinsic and potential
3. Infrastructure - Physical and Social
4. Issues relating to Environment sustainability
5. Extent of Urban Poor and their requirements
6. Institutional Capacity gaps and requirements.

The city profiles has been drawn from the Sector analysis and assessment of the existing situation in
all the sectors identified, emerging issues, analysis and projection of the present gaps and future
requirements.

City Vision
Exhibit 1-2 presents an extract from the JNNURM Toolkit considered for developing a City‟s Vision
which we believed summarizes the key contours of a City level Vision formulation quite succinctly.

The City Profile has been presented to the stakeholders and Steering Group followed with a
discussion on city perspective and city priorities as perceived by the stakeholders. With the
background of city profile, perspective and priorities, the participants contributed to the development a
collective and shared vision for the city. Discussion were initiated on strategies, priorities and major
actions that may be required in the next fifteen years to move towards the vision.

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


Developing a vision for the city is central to the preparation of a CDP. A vision is a statement of where the city wishes to go,
within a given timeframe, and is often expressed in terms of clear expectations. It defines the potential of the city and
reflects its unique attributes in terms of comparative and competitive advantages, values and preferences of the city’s
residents, relationship of the city to the state, national and global economies, and of course, the history and physical
characteristics of the city. A vision aligns stakeholders’ energies to work cohesively for the development of the city. Cities
need to systematically consider the future, and design strategies to accordingly shape the future. All objectives, strategies,
programmes and projects must be aligned with the vision of the city.

Developing a common vision requires a significant effort of consensus building in order to balance the competing demands
arising from different economic infrastructure sectors, as also from different interest groups within the city. In order to
achieve an understanding on a common vision, it is useful to choose “milestones” and targets such as provision of a
minimum level of services to all; public disclosure and transparency in the formulation of budget proposals; introduction of
a single window in matters of service delivery and management and the like. In developing the vision, cities must choose a
set of criteria that are directly relevant to the JNNURM components. It is important that when cities define outcomes and
milestones on the vision, they ensure that these are measurable and have a time frame.

Sector Strategy and Goals


The formulation of key themes underlying the City Vision was a critical part of the exercise along with
the translation of broader vision into specific sector level strategies and goals. In formulating sector
level strategies and actionable goals, it was critical to ensure a link between the strategies and the
desired service level outcomes and consistency with the overall goal.

While the Vision captured a broader perspective of the citizen/stakeholder view on where the city
needs to go, strategies articulate what needs to be done.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 9


For instance, an overall vision to provide universal coverage of water supply to all its citizens may
require strategies to a) Augment water availability, b) Reduce Distribution Losses and c) Differentiated
Tariff with subsidized lifeline supply for cost recovery.

Sector wise service level targets and reform actions


We tied to translate broader sector level goals into tangible service delivery targets and reform
actions, which enabled identification of priority projects that need to be implemented to achieve these
service level targets.

1.4.5. Module III: Finalisation


This module covered translating the consultative and analytical inputs to develop an actionable City
Investment Plan backed by an effective financing strategy leading to formulation of the City
Development Plan.

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


The CIP and financing strategy are inseparable. An credible and actionable Investment Plan has been
developed based on the analysis of financing capacity and a strategy to overcome the limitations of
the financials of the ULB. We observed that ULB have limited investment capacity to undertake all
capital investment programs. Apart from evaluating the potential financing from schemes like
JNNURM and other capital grant schemes of GoMP, we have also evaluated ULB‟s potential to a)
Improve its Revenue surplus through revenue enhancement related reforms and rationalization of
costs and b) leverage and access to external capital through borrowings and Public Private
Partnerships.

Our approach involved the following steps:


 Estimation of unconstrained sector wise Investment requirements given normative gaps in
service levels (5 year, 10 year and 15 year horizons), sector wise service level improvement
targets and identified priority projects for the first five years
 Preparation of Financial and Operating Plan and Estimation of borrowing capacity with
operating revenue surplus improvements and revenue reforms
 Developing a realistic and actionable Investment Plan and a Financial and Operating Plan
within borrowing capacity limitations with a 5-year action plan and 15-20 year financial
projections.
Developing 5 year action plan is an iterative process and factored inputs from consultations with
stakeholders on priority projects to be taken up in consonance with the City Vision, Sector wise
strategy and service level targets.

Submission of City Development Plan, Consultations and Finalization

Following the finalization of the CIP, we had integrated the deliverables presented in Module I and II
along with the CIP and financing strategy to prepare and submit the City Development Plan.
Further to this a workshop with stakeholders will be conducted to summarize the process and the
building blocks around which the CDP has been evolved and seek an endorsement from them. We
would also work with the stakeholders to develop procedures for performance monitoring and
implementation of the actions recommended in the CDP.
This would be followed by a presentation to MPUADD and the ULB. Based on the inputs we would
submit the final CDP to MPUADD and the ULB along with a summary of the CDP for publication and
wider dissemination by the NP.

1.5. Stakeholders Interaction
The CDP process involved several stakeholder consultations during the course of the project to make
the process inclusive and CDP comprehensive. The team visited Nasrullahganj in the month of
November and December and had interactions and discussions with the city officials and the political
representatives to get information on the city strengths, existing scenario of infrastructure services,
on-going projects, ULB setup, area of concerns, lacunas etc. And also the demand, gaps, vision,
goals, strategies, priorities, financial situation etc. Apart from individual consultations, three
stakeholder workshops were conducted at different stages of the study with the objectives of
apprising stakeholders with the status of the study and obtaining feedbacks on CDP process and
intermediate findings. The feedbacks from stakeholders were carefully evaluated and incorporated in
the process.
1.5.1. Interacting with Municipal Body
During the first visit to the town, we interacted with the officials of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad,
wherein we discussed the necessity of a CDP for the town and the support that we sought in order to
accomplish the task assigned by the State. We also discussed the approach and methodology for the
assignment and the support that was required from the ULB in terms of data support, city
understanding and conduction of the workshops. In the subsequent meetings the team had a detailed
discussion on the organization structure of the ULB, type & level of service provided by them, financial
aspects of respective services, existing capacity & gaps in various sectors and their perspective &
suggestions on improving the quality of services provided by municipality and data on existing on-
going projects if any. These interactions also included collection of data pertaining to services offered
by ULB. During second visit the detailed demand and gaps were discussed with local body and Nagar
Parishad supported in identifying the potential areas of development and potentials in every sector.
During third visit final investment plans were discussed with local people.

1.5.2. Interaction with other Stakeholders


Apart from meeting the ULB officials the team has also interacted with other stakeholders mainly
Adhyaksha and the elected ward members and other eminent personalities of the town. Team has
also met with revenue department‟s representative (Patvari), sub-engineer etc.

1.5.3. Formation of Steering Group


Town Level Steering Group is a group of eminent persons of the area who can play a key role in the
successful completion of this study. This group is envisaged to be entrusted with the duty of reviewing
all the reports and primary consultations for all purposes. The following officials/political leaders/other
eminent persons are part of steering group as given in Exhibit 1-3.

1.5.4. Workshops
The objectives and outcomes of various stakeholders are:

1. Kick-off Workshop – Inception Workshop

A workshop was organized to familiarize the stakeholders with the purpose, process, and expected
outcomes of the CDP, and build enthusiasm, understanding and commitment to the CDP. The kick off
workshop helped in deriving a consensus along with the stakeholders firming the process and
agreeing upon a structured programme to take the CDP forward. It happened during first workshop
i.e. “Kick-off Stakeholder Consultation Workshop,” on November 2nd, 2011. Presentation was
followed by a participative session on “discussion & suggestions.” Outcomes of this workshop were;
familiarization of stakeholders with the purpose, methodology & expected outcomes of the study,
improvisation in our understanding of city & its problems, innovative approaches to counter existing
problems and building of enthusiasm, understanding and commitment for the successful completion
of a comprehensive and ambitious but implementable, City Development Plan.

2. Second Workshop – City Vision, Sector Goals, Strategies and Prioritization

Second formal meeting addressing all stakeholders happened during second workshop on December
rd
3 , 2011. Presentation was followed by a participative session and questionnaire round, which helped
in finalizing the city vision, sector goals, strategies and priority actions for the development of the
town. This workshop culminated in the consolidation of strategies, priority actions and projects.

3. Third Workshop – Draft CDP Workshop


th
The third workshop was conducted on 27 August, 2012 at Nasrullahganj.

1.7. Limitations and Caveats


The limitation faced during the preparation of the city development plan is the unavailability of
complete data, as IMaCS did not conduct any field survey for the data collection, only secondary data
was used which was provided by Nagar Parishad. Since „To the Scale‟ Ward boundary maps are not
available with the town, the digitized maps prepared by IMaCS show the tentative ward and town
boundaries which are marked by the officials of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad and Revenue
Department.

and undeveloped land. The existing municipal area includes both built-up area and agricultural area,
which has been discussed in detail in fifth chapter.
The master plan for the town has not been prepared, thus the town does not have any planning area
for future growth. It has been observed that a large component of the existing municipal area is
undeveloped, thus it creates space for the spatial development of the town.

climate, and rainfall. It also provided information on its location and connectivity. The next chapter
discusses the demographic profile of the town.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 15


3. DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE OF THE TOWN
3.1. Introduction
Demographic characteristics of a town provides an overview of its population size, composition,
territorial distribution and changes therein. This section on demographic indicators includes indicators
that measure the population size, sex ratio, density and dependency ratio. These indicators for the
region will help in identifying areas that need policy and programmed interventions, setting short and
long-term goals, and deciding priorities, besides understanding them in an integrated structure. Data
in this section has been taken mainly from the “Census of India” and “Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad”.
The demographic characteristics have been analysed in terms of decadal growth and spatial
distribution of density in the town.
As per 2001 census the total population of Nasrullahganj is 17,240 and provisional population for the
year 2011 is 23,738 which shows a decadal growth rate of 38%. Refer Exhibit 3-1. The work
participation rate is 26.7% which is low as compared to national growth rate (39.1%) and state growth
rate (42.7%). Sex ratio is 887 which is also low as compared to the national level (933) and state level
(920). Literacy rate in the town is 73 %, which is higher to National literacy (64.84%) and state literacy
(63.74%).

3.2. Population growth and density


As per the Census of 2011, the population of the town is 23,738 and town is categorized as Class IV
towns. Exhibit 3-1 provides a snapshot of the population growth over the last few decades. The town
has experienced very high population growth rate during 1981-91 at 104%, which was reduced to
decadal growth rate of 17% during 1991-2001 then again increased to 38% in last decade (2001-11).

Source – Census of India (*Provisional population as per Census 2011)

Population density (P.D.) is calculated as population of the city divided by the municipal area of the
town. It is generally represented in terms of No. per square km (No. /sq. km). The current density of
Nasrullahganj is 2,938. As shown in Map 4B, Annexure IV wards 1, 4, 13, 15, 10, 7 and 6 have
minimum density and are located on the periphery of the town; whereas the wards located in the inner
part of the town are densely populated.
3.3. Population projection
With a precedence of past and current trends of population growth in Nasrullahganj, an analysis has
been carried out with an objective of estimating population for the next three decades using various
methods which includes Arithmetic increase method, Incremental increase method, Geometric
progression method exponential methods. Result of this analysis is presented in Exhibit 3-2.

Given the fact that decadal population growth rate of the Nasrullahganj town is highly irregular, taking
any of the above method for projection will not yield correct projections, so to project future population
last decade‟s growth rate has been considered for population growth during 2011-21 at a CAGR of
3.25%, then factoring the increase in population density the CAGR of 3% and 2% has been assumed
for 2021-31 and 2031-41 respectively.

3.5. Issues

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 17


1. A high population growth rate has caused several problems in the recent times as existing
physical infrastructure and level of service has been restrained by several factors such as lack of
funds, lack of proper planning, etc.
2. Sex ratio is alarmingly low
3. A higher proportion of female among the illiterates indicate lower attention paid to female
education.

3.6. Conclusion
This chapter discussed population growth trend and population density of the town. It was followed by
ward-wise population details and includes population projections for next 25 years. The next chapter
deals with the socio-economic profile of the town.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 18


4. SOCIO ECONOMIC PROFILE OF THE TOWN
4.1. Introduction
Socio-Economic profile of a town provides an overview of its social indicators and economy. The
section on Social Indicators includes Sex Ratio, Literacy Rate and Average Household size. This is
supported by the detailing of occupations of population. The economic profile of a town provides an
understanding of its economic base and trade and commerce activities. These indicators for the
region will help in identifying areas that need policy and programmed interventions, setting near and
far-term goals, and deciding priorities, besides having an integrated development structure. Data in
this section has been taken mainly from the “Census of India” and “Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad”.
The major occupation of the people in
Nasrullahganj is agriculture; hence Krishi Upaj
Mandi (Figure 4.1) is one of the major activity
which accounts for a significant socio economic
activity in the town. The major commodities
exported from the town are Wheat, Pulses and
Soya bean. The Mandi is connected to the nearest
major railway station at a distance of 60 kms in
Hoshangabad (though Budni is the nearest railway
station but it is not a major station, and all the
trains don‟t halt at Budni). The produce from the
Mandi is sent to the nearby cities including Itarsi,
Indore, Obdullaganj, and Mandideep etc. Wheat is
Figure 4-1 Krishi Upaj Mandi
mainly exported to the Maharashtra, Soya is sent
for processing in the Indore plants. Pulses are exported to Indore, Itarsi and Maharashtra. Chana is
not processed in the town as the quantity required is not enough for the functioning of processing
plant. There are six private and two government owned warehouse for the storage. Though the Mandi
is “A” class but as per the officials it‟s smaller in size. Area under Krishi Upaj Mandi is seven acres. It
is seen that average daily dispatch to outside markets during the seasons is 7000 quintals.

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad has an over-all sex ratio of 887 and literacy rate of 73%. Exhibit 4-2
shows Nasrullahganj‟s literacy rate is comparatively higher than that of the state. Turning our attention
to sex ratio, Nasrullahganj‟s overall sex ratio is lower than that of State and National. This is probably
because male populations from the surrounding areas have migrated to Nasarullahganj for job
opportunities.
Refer Exhibit 4-3 to identify the wards having sex-ratio and Literacy-rate less than town average and
more than town average.

Madhya Pradesh‟s sex ratio has increased from 920 in 2001 to 930 in 2011. It is still lower than the
national levels. India‟s sex ratio was 933 in 2001 and has increased to 940 in 2011. If we look at the
sex ratio at district level in last two decades, the encouraging figures are noticeable. The sex ratio has
increased from 898 to 908 and then to 918 in 1991, 2001 and 2011 respectively in Sehore District.
Government of Madhya Pradesh had started some effective schemes and interventions for the
welfare of women which is improving the situation in the state. The schemes that focus on sex-ratio
sensitivity is „Ladli Laxmi Scheme‟, which is handled by Department of Women and Child
Development, Madhya Pradesh for betterment of sex ratio, education and health status of girl child. It
is a very effective scheme which has been playing important role in improving declining sex ratio in
the state.
Literacy rate is one of the most important demographic indicators which sum up the existing literacy
level and capacity to actualize the developmental potential. All the wards are classified in three
different categories as per their existing level of literacy. This Classification is given in Exhibit 4-4.

Exhibit 4-5 shows the ward-wise literacy rates in the town. It can be seen that most of the peripheral
wards have lower literacy rate whereas the wards in the central area (ward no. 5, 6, 8,9,10 and 11) of
the town have high literacy rates. It can also be seen that the wards having low literacy rate are
mostly the slum wards. In addition, a detailed gendered analysis of literacy has also been carried out
for all the wards of Nasrullahganj town.

The total literate population is 73%. With the initiation of centrally sponsored schemes in Education
such as District Primary Education Programme, Sarv Shiksha Abhiyaan and Education Guarantee
Scheme at school level had contributed in the increased level of literacy in the state in last two
decades; but the most effective scheme had been „Padhana-Badhana‟ Movement for literacy by
Government of Madhya Pradesh, started in 1996-97. As per 53rd round of National Sample Survey
(NSS), it was established that there was nearly 11.8% increase in the rate of literacy of the state from
1991 to 1997, which to some extent was due to Padhana-Badhana Movement. According to
provisional Figures of census 2001 the rate of Literacy had increased 44.20% to 64.11% which
reflected 19.19% increase in literacy rate within a decade. Other schemes which attributed to
increasing literacy rate in last two decades includes upgradation of Madarsa‟s scheme, „Free of cost
Distribution scheme of text books‟, „Book –Bank Scheme‟, „ Free of Cost School Uniform Scheme‟,
etc.

4.2.3. Workforce participation (Primary, Secondary and Tertiary occupation and income
levels)
Work is defined as participation in any economically productive activity with or without compensation,
wages or profit. Such participation may be physical and/or mental in nature. Work involves not only
actual work but also includes effective supervision and direction of work. It even includes part time
help or unpaid work on farm, family enterprise or in any other economic activity. All persons engaged
in 'work' as defined above are workers. As per “Census of India,” Workers have been classified as
Main workers, Marginal workers and Non workers depending on duration of their work months.

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

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 21


Marginal Workers: Those workers who had not worked for the major point of the reference period
(i.e. less than 6 months) are termed as Marginal Workers.
As a sub-classification, “Main and Marginal Workers” are again classified on the basis of nature of
work performed; Cultivators, Agricultural Labours, Household Industry Labors and Other Workers.
Cultivators: A person is classified as cultivator if he or she is engaged in cultivation of land owned or
held from Government or held from private persons or institutions for payment in money, kind or
share. Cultivation includes effective supervision or direction in cultivation.
Agricultural Labors: A person who works on another person's land for wages in money or kind or
share is regarded as an agricultural laborer. (S)he has no risk in the cultivation, but merely works on
another person's land for wages. An agricultural laborer has no right of lease or contract on land on
which (s) he works.
Household Industry: Household Industry is defined as an industry conducted by one or more
members of the household at home or within the village in rural areas and only within the precincts of
the house where the household lives in urban areas.
Other Workers: This includes all government servants, municipal employees, teachers, factory
workers, plantation workers, those engaged in trade, commerce, business, transport banking, mining,
construction, political or social work, priests, entertainment artists, etc.
The details of the workforce for 2001 have been shown in Exhibit below. The details of the workforce
for 2011 are in the process of conduction in the towns.

Workforce Participation Rate (WFPR) 27
Source – Census of India, 2001
The workforce participation rate of the town is very low (27%). There is a need to provide employment
opportunities and reduce dependent population in the town.
4.3. Economic Base
4.3.1. Industrial activities
The population of the town is not involved in industrial activities. It does not have any big industry to
boost the economy of the town.

4.3.2. Trade and commerce


The town acts as a trading centre and commercial market for Agricultural produces. This place is
known for one of the highest Soyabean productions in the region as well as in Madhya Pradesh. The
major crops grown over here are Wheat, Chana and Soyabean. Nasrullahganj town serves as a
regional wholesale crop market centre (Krishi Upaj Mandi) and is an A-Class Mandi of the state. Total
area of the Mandi is 25 acre. 2010-11 exports from the Mandi of Wheat, Chana and Soya bean were
68,835 tonnes 18,345 tons and 57,188 tons respectively. Wheat is exported to the Maharashtra,
Soya bean is exported to the Obdullaganj, Mandideep and Indore plants. Chana is exported to Indore,
Itarsi and Maharashtra for processing. A Gud Mandi and a Sabji Mandi is located in the ward No. 10.

4.4. Issues
 A significant number of male and female illiterates are a serious issue which impedes the
overall development of the city. This can be attributed to less awareness, poverty and lack of
sufficient accessible education.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 22


 A high percentage of non-workers suggest that a significant proportion of population remains
unemployed for a substantial part of the year. This needs to be address for realise economic
upliftment of the society at large.
 Nasrullahganj‟s economy is highly depending on agriculture. Whereas this potential can
further be actualized, this dependence is also a possible threat to the Nasrullahganj‟s
economy. To achieve a sustainable growth rate, a more diversified economic base is of
utmost importance.

This chapter dealt with the spatial growth trend and past trend on Nasarullahganj‟s expansion in its
existing state. The ward maps and land use pattern and housing scenario have also been discussed
in detail. The chapter ended with a brief note about the growth possibilities.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 23


5. SPATIAL PLANNING AND GROWTH MANAGEMENT
5.1. Spatial growth trends
The origin of town is older than Independence. The town is named after the name of the Nawab
Nasrullah Khan. He was an expert hunter and was one of the few hunters in India who had achieved
the distinction of becoming „Nausherwan‟ – a hunter who bags nine tigers in a 24-hours span. He did
hunting in surrounding forest areas of present day Nasrullahganj. State Highway 22 known as Indore-
Bhopal road, passes through the town. The growth of the town is largely along the state highway. The
older settlement are mainly on the southern part of the town. But over the period of time, the intensive
development has been observed along the state highway in an unplanned manner.

5.2. Spatial distribution of population


The town‟s old areas (i.e. in Ward four and three) are more dense and populated. A close look at the
Nasrullahganj‟s map reveals (Refer Map-4B enclosed in Annexure 4) that the central region has
comparatively higher population densities. Detail of population density is given in Exhibit 5-1 central
areas have high density (above 200 PPH), whereas other parts of the town has density lesser than 50
pph.

In the map population density has been categorized into four types. Ward no. five and three have
higher density and are shown in the dark brown colour. Wards 11 and 14, are in the density range of
50-100 PPH and are shown in the light brown colour. The wards 1,4,6,7,10,13 and 15 are the ones
with least density and shown in the light yellow colour. Rest of the wards have medium density in the
range 100-150 PPH and are shown in the dark yellow colour.
5.2.1. Municipal level mapping (to the scale)
The municipal area covers 8.08 sq. Kms of land. Map-3 enclosed in annexure 4 shows the municipal
level map and a base map with major landmarks of Nasrullahganj.
5.2.2. Ward delineation map
The town has 15 wards. The delineation of wards has been shown in Map-4A enclosed in annexure 4.

5.3. Land-use analysis


Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is spread over about 8.08 sq. km. In absence of the Master Plan for the
towns, it is difficult to estimate the exact land use breakup but from the preliminary visit it is clear that
major part of the town is under agriculture use. Exhibit below shows the land-use pattern of the town
based on the information provided by Land records and revenue department, 2011.
Exhibit 5-2 Land Use pattern
S. No Land use category Area (Ha) Percentage
1 Residential (Abadi) 113.12 14
2 Amenities (Public-Semi Public) 32.32 4
3 Roads 24.24 3

5 Agriculture/ Green Space 589.84 73
6 Commercial 28.28 3.5
Total 808.00 100
Source: Land records and revenue department, 2011

As discussed above Agriculture accounts for 73% of the total land in town and the developed land is
only 24.5%, which consists of 14% of residential use, while institutional, commercial and roads
accounts for 4, 3.5 and 3% respectively. The broad tentative land use of the town has been
represented in Map-5 enclosed in Annexure 4. The broad land use pattern shows that, institutional
area is located along state highway. Residential area is divided in the two parts, one in North –
Western part and other in the south-eastern part of the town.

5.4. Housing scenario

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 25


Housing is a very critical component of city‟s development. Some of critical aspects of Housing in any
city consists of the number of households, average household size, type of building and provision of
basic services e.g. water supply, electricity, sewerage, drainage, solid waste disposal etc. To analyse
the housing scenario of the city, factors such as density of residential areas, household size, nature of
built form and housing shortage have been considered.
5.4.1. Present and future Housing demand
At present the town has 4,652 households. Many houses in the town are in dilapidated condition.
Some are kutcha in nature, so these all houses are also needed to be taken care of for future
improvement. In 2036, minimum of 894 houses would be needed to support the population of the
town. Exhibit 5-3 future total need of houses.

2 Future demand / Number of Houses - 507 699 894
Source: IMaCS Analysis
5.4.2. Illegal colonies
The development of unauthorised colonies has been observed in the town. Agricultural cultivators are
sub-dividing their agricultural land and selling them for construction of houses. Since there are no
permissions from the local body to commence this construction and change the use of the land, the
basic facilities and urban services are negligible in these areas leading to degraded condition of the
colonies. This phenomenon is increasing over the period of time along state highway.

5.4.3. Future growth possibilities


At present, Nasrullahganj faces a number of problems with water being the most scarce resource
which the citizens are deprived of. Apart from problems related to Road infrastructure, Water Supply,
Sewerage & Sanitation, Drainage, Solid Waste Management, Health and Education, Nasrullahganj
Nagar Parishad faces the problem of slums in the town. The town has suffered the insufficient
employment opportunities. It had expended along state highway.
As the population grows in the town it is expected that the process of sub-divisions and selling plots
would increase due to rising land values, and more residential development would take place in
peripheral part of the town. These areas are good for habitation but it needs support of infrastructure
for good quality of life.
Map-4B enclosed in Annexure 4 clearly depicts wards with lower population densities. The wards,
with lower densities, offer some possible locations for future development in the town. A critical
observation reveals that growth could also be directed to the low density wards, namely Ward No. 15,
1, 7, 4, 10 and 13. acts a site for potential future development.

5.5. Issues
1. The population densities in internal wards, which are in the core area are substantially high and
are near to the permissible limits as prescribed in the UDPFI guidelines as compared to other
wards. Initiatives should be taken to decongest these wards in order to reduce infrastructural
pressure from the overcrowded wards.
2. The haphazard development and formulation of illegal colonies in the town has increased and
leads to degraded quality of life. There is a need to prepare a master plan for regulated land
development and proper management and development of the town.

5.6. SWOT Analysis

5.7. Conclusion
This chapter dealt with the spatial growth trend and how did Nasrullahganj expanded into the town it
is now. The ward maps and land use pattern and housing scenario have also been discussed in
detail. The chapter ended with a brief note about the growth possibilities and city specific strategies
and action plan.

6. CITY’S INFRASTRUCTURE – EXISTING STATUS, GAPS, ISSUES,
SWOT, GOALS AND STRATEGIES
The chapter deals with the current status of various components of city infrastructure and services
provided by the Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. Various sectors/services have been analyzed in
accordance with the methodology mentioned earlier. Sectors / Services identified for the analysis
include: Water Supply, Sewerage & Sanitation, Solid Waste Management, Drainage, Traffic &
Transportation, Street Lighting & Fire Fighting, Urban Poor and their Accessibility to Basic Services,
Social Infrastructure, Environment and Existing Institutional Framework for Development. Sector-wise
analysis is presented in subsequent sub-sections. Demand-Supply Gap Analysis for various sectors
has been done for short, medium and long term, i.e. 5 years, 15 years and 25 years.

6.1. Water supply


Water Supply facility in the town is provided by Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad which undertakes
sourcing, establishing networks, maintenance and collection of user charges for domestic as well as
commercial purposes.
6.1.1. Source, Supply, Distribution Systems and Treatment Facilities
Nasrullahganj lies in Narmada basin and tube wells have been drilled with the yield of 450 lph to 500
lph fitted with submersible pumps. In Nasrullahganj, the available water supply statistics show that
average yield from various sources for water which is supplied to the town is about 1.42 MLD, which
translates into about 60 lpcd availability for the citizens. Narmada River is proposed to be used for
augmentation of existing system i.e. for supply of additional 5.6 MLD raw water situated 6 kms
(approx.) from Nasrullahganj in the south eastern direction.
Main source of water supply in Nasrullahganj town is through ground water. The water from 17 tube
wells is pumped to two over-head tanks of capacity of 2.7 lakhs and 2.3 lakhs litres and one sump
well with the capacity of 0.5 lakhs liters. The overhead tanks are filled once in a day whereas sump
well is filled four times in a day. Consequentially, the capacity of all the reservoirs in a day is 0.7 MLD.
There is no treatment facility or filtration plant in the town at present. The town has eleven hand
pumps, fourteen tube wells and four wells, which are under private ownership. Location of different
sources of water is provided in Exhibit 6-1. (Refer Map 8A in annexure 4).

Water Supply from tube wells in longer time may become a problem in this area, as the ground water
level has gone down up-to 300 ft below the ground and the water supply at present is much below the
prescribed standards and with the increase in population would result into increase in demand for
water. The quality of ground water in the district has been assessed by central ground water board by
analyzing ground water samples in the district. From the samples it is observed that PH values of all
water samples ranges from 7.27 to 8.07, which shows alkaline nature of the water in the district.
Nitrate level in Sehore district varies from 5.6 to 358 mg/l. The excessive concentration of nitrate
levels may be due to localized pollution or percolation of fertilizers used for agriculture. The hardness
of ground water in the district has been found safe. No arsenic content has been detected in the
ground water of the district. But as the Sehore district‟s ground water has iron and fluorine, usage of
ground water needs to be reassessed for safe drinking (Water Aid, 2005, Water and Sanitation in
Madhya Pradesh).
In India, water supply projects are usually designed keeping 20 Hours per day pumping & treatment
infrastructure‟s „live‟ availability; however, the efficacy of the entire system is disadvantaged when
continuous power is not available at various stages of pumping/treatment. Another statistics on power
availability reveal that average per day power availability is for about 8 hours. A perspective look into
the above available information would reveal that power cut acts as a major impediment in the
provision of ample amount of per capita water availability in the town vis-a-vis existing infrastructure
available. Thus, in the proposed strategy, in order to utilize the designed infrastructure at its optimum
efficiency, and while tackling the power availability impediment, it would be worthwhile to have a direct
power feeder for the proposed treatment plant and pump house.
6.1.2. Connections and User Charges
At present there are 1,205 domestic connections and 18 non-domestic connections. Existing water
tariff is Rs.40 per month for domestic and Rs.75 per month for non- domestic as shown table below.

6.1.3. Water Table Analysis
Sehore district forms a part of Malwa plateau with an undulating topography. The geological strata of
the district comprise of three different formations namely; vindhayan formation, alluvium and Deccan
trap. About 85% of the area in the district is occupied by Deccan trap, 10% by alluvium and the
remaining 5% by vindhyan formation in Sehore district. Sehore district has 5 blocks namely Sehore,
Budni, Nasurallahganj, Ichhawar and Ashta.

As per the ground water booklet on Sehore district by Central Ground water board, a major portion of
Budni block falling under south eastern part of district is covered with Vindhayan formations which
comprise of sandstone, shale, quartzite and breccia. These formations are generally poor aquifers but
when they are subjected to weathering and jointing, they become moderately yielding aquifers. The
depth to water level in this formation varies from 4.85m to 9.50m bgl and season water level
fluctuation ranges from 0.85m to 3.0 m. The yield of wells in this formation varies from 1 to 3 lps.
Major portion of alluvium occurs along Narmada river falling in Budni block and small linear patches
occur along Pārbati river in the western side of the district. It majorly consists of clay, sand, silt, gravel
and pebbles. The yield of wells in this formation varies from 5 to 10 lps. The remaining portion in the
district falls under Deccan trap formation which covers 85% of the total area of district. The yield of
wells in this formation varies from 1 to 5 lps.

The quality of ground water in the district has been assessed by central ground water board by
analyzing ground water samples in the district. From the samples it is observed that PH values of all
water samples vary between 7.27-8.07 which shows alkaline nature of the water in the district.
Ground water in the district is
generally low to high saline as
electrical conductivity varies from 465
to 2100. Highest EC values
(exceeding 1000) have been found in
Ashta (2100) and Bhikhileri (1830)
villages. Nitrate level in Sehore district
varies from 5.6 to 358 mg/l. The
concentration of nitrate exceeding 45
mg/l has been found in Ashta (358
mg/l), Bhaya (59 mg/l) and Jattakheda
(51 mg/l). The excessive
concentration of nitrate levels may be
due to localized pollution or excessive
use of fertilizers in the district. The
hardness of ground water in the district has been found safe except in Ashta (705) which crosses the
limit of 600 as per BIS standards. The study also analyzed that the district has no problem with the
fluoride since all wells have fluoride less than 1.5 ppm. No arsenic content has been detected in the
ground water of the district. Refer below Hydrology map of Sehore district for details.

It is evident from the Exhibit 6-4 that Nasrullahganj needs a major revamping in “Water Supply” sector
as current level of service, 60 lpcd, is substantially lower than the prescribed norm of 135 lpcd. The
huge gap in the water supply area at the end of year 2015 well underscores the above point. By the
end of year 2035, Nasrullahganj city would require 6.58 MLD of water for daily consumption. No
treatment of water happens in the town. In the area of Elevated Storage Capacity, Nasrullahganj city,
at present, as per the UDPFI standards there is a gap of 0.41 ML in short term and additional 0.50 ML
in long term will have to be addressed. An additional of 24.98 kms, 31.7 and 39.63 kms will be
required in the area of distribution network by the year 2015, 2025 and 2035 respectively.

6.1.5. Water supply projects


Under the UIDSSMT scheme, a new water supply system for Nasrullahganj based on Narmada River
is designed for water demands of the year 2040. The new scheme is designed for enhanced per
capita supply of 135 litres per day as per CPHEEO guidelines. As per this scheme, water requirement
for the population of Nasrullahganj for the year 2040 shall be 5.6 MLD. The scheme considers
construction of intake works at Narmada River, 5.6 MLD conventional water treatment plant, pumping
mains, 2 new overhead reservoirs and distribution system in the town. The new scheme is approved
and the works are under construction.

6.1.7. Issues

1. A substantial part of population receives untreated water as the treatment facility does not exist
for the supplied water;
2. Critical shortage of water during summer season due to lowering of water level in the
Nasrullahganj;
3. Dependence on Hand-pumps and wells for daily water supply;
4. Complete absence of metering system and
5. Upstream pollution of River.

6.2. Sewerage
As envisaged in the 12th schedule of 74th Amendment to
the Constitution of India, responsibility of providing
services pertaining to sewerage within the city limits lie
with the ULBs. The same responsibility is with
Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad.

6.2.1. Existing sewerage system


Currently there is no sewerage system existing in
Nasrullahganj. The sewage from the households flows
gets mixed into road side storm water drains that flows in
main nallahs and rivers. In the absence of sewerage
system, people depend upon individual septic tanks.
Figure 6-1 Sewage from the households
6.2.2. Means of sewage disposal
The sewage from households and other commercial establishments gets mixed into road side storm
water drains that flow in main nallahs and rivers. It is found that the sewage flows into various nallahs
or accumulates into the low lying areas creating unhygienic living conditions for the local residents. In
the absence of sewerage system, people depend upon individual septic tanks.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 32


6.2.3. Household toilets (Dry Latrines and Flush latrines)
Out of 4,652 households, approximately 82 % have individual toilets. In this 16% have pit latrines and
rest have toilets with septic tanks. As already discussed there is no sewerage system in Nasrullahganj
and therefore, wastewater from septic tanks is generally left out in open drains or in a nearby nallah
except in few cases where soak pits are used to dispose the wastewater.

6.2.4. Open defecation


The household level survey conducted by AIILSG (All India Institute of local self-Government) in 2008
reveals that approximately 13% population – mostly from economic weaker sections and living in
slums and newly developing areas resort to open defecation due to lack of individual or community
sanitation facilities in their area. The baseline survey indicated that such population exists in almost in
all municipal wards in varying degree but it is more in Wards no 1, 13 and 15 followed by wards 4 and
2. Incidentally, these wards also represent higher proportion of population staying on rental basis in
these wards which may not have access to individual toilets in their homes.

Large proportion of children also defecates in open. It is a common practice to dispose infants‟
excreta in open. Baseline survey indicated that over 12% of households reported that children
defecate in open fields and over 17% of the households throw infant‟s excreta in open field in unsafe
manner. Overall situation causes unhygienic conditions in the city area and also poses risks for
spread of diseases through flies and ground water contamination.

6.2.5. Maintenance of septic tanks


Septage from septic tanks and pit latrines is collected by the Nagar Parishad using two suction
tractors/ mud pumps available with them and disposed-off in the landfill site used for dumping solid
waste from the city. Rs 1000 per cleaning are charged within the Nagar Parishad limits for individual
households and Rs. 1500/ visit for septic tanks outside the limits of Nagar Parishad. Septic tanks are
cleaned once in a year based on the request from households. Generally, about only 2-3% of the
septic tanks are cleaned per year as per the baseline survey. This indicates that many of the
households do not clean their septic tanks on annual basis but may be on bi-annual or tri-annual
basis.

6.2.6. Present and Future Demand and Supply Gaps


The Exhibit 6-5 presents the existing situation, future demand and the gap which needs to be filled.
As presently there is no sewerage system, thus there is no population covered by underground
drainage, whereas the desired level is 100%. As at present the sewer network is missing in the town,
the length of the sewer network required by year 2035 is around 41.97 km. As there is no network,
there is no waste water treatment plant, thus unchecked disposal of wastewater in natural drains
causes significant harm to the environment.

As shown in above Exhibit Nasrullahganj would require a sewerage system to cater the population of
year 2035. According to norms mentioned under the UDPFI, the sewerage system would need to
cover 90% of the road length during year 2035. A comprehensive sewerage system needs an
integrated treatment plant which can be developed in a phased manner. A treatment plant with an
initial capacity of 2.94 MLD should be developed to cater to the requirements of 2035 at 5.26 MLD.

6.2.7. Sewerage projects


Sewerage Project “Providing and laying of sewer network of Nasrullahganj” for a design period of 30
years, till 2038 is in pipeline. Proposed project will enable municipal Parishad to collect the sewerage
and storm water and carry it other suitable place for providing desired treatment before the waste
water being finally disposed-off to river or rushed for any other purposes. Project includes providing
and laying of sewer network within town, providing of pumping facility if necessary for cleansing
facility along with treatment facility. Total network length will be 20,280 m. Two stabilisation ponds for
4 MLD capacities will be constructed.

6.2.9. Issues

 Many of the households do not clean their septic tanks on annual basis but on bi-annual or tri-
annual basis because of high cost
 Lack of space availability, affordability, dense housing structures, and rental accommodation
affects the construction of toilets and septic tanks.
 Absence of UGD system: All the wards are to be covered with UGD system. The disposal of
sewage through either open drainage or septic tanks is leading to the pollution of ground
water and surface water. An integrated UG system covering the entire town is critical, given
the expected growth of the town.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 34


 Treatment: Sewage water flowing through open drains without any treatment is the major
cause of concern regarding surface water pollution. Thus, it poses a potential health hazard
for the citizens.
 Uncovered Population: While the absence of UGD itself exposes the entire town population to
the hazards of unsanitary conditions, almost complete population of the town remains
uncovered by safe sanitary disposal systems.
 Need for greater coverage and better maintenance of Public conveniences: Absence of UGD
itself exposes the entire town to the hazards of unsanitary conditions.
 Poor coverage, overflows and blockages of Storm water drains: With the growth in population
of the town, the poor coverage of road networks by storm water drains without adequate
linkages to main channels requires immediate attention. The drains also face the overflow
and blockage problems due to the plastic waste thrown in the drains.

6.3. Sanitation
Like sewerage, in the 12th schedule of 74th Amendment to the Constitution of India the responsibility
of providing services pertaining to sanitation within the city limits lie with the ULBs.

6.3.1. Private toilets


Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad conducted Cleanliness Survey in 2008 and assessed availability of

has low percentage of households having individual toilet.

6.3.2. Community toilets

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 35


There are three public toilets in the town: one at the Nasrullahganj bus stand, one at Sehore Naka
and third one at Bajrang Colony. Out of these, the toilet at Bajrang Colony is now abandoned and not
in use.

Both the toilets at Nasrullahganj bus stand and Sehore Naka are maintained by Sulabh Souchalaya
on pay and use basis. The toilet at bus stand has facility of 12 seats, 6 for gents and 6 for ladies.
Users are charged Rs. 3 per use for both men and women. Tourists and few local residents use the
toilet facility. The public toilet is at Sehore Naka with 7 seats for men and 3 for women. Men are
charged Rs 3 and women are charged Rs. 2 per use. This toilet facility is mostly used by tourists and
truck drivers. There is bathing facility also available for which users are charged Rs. 5. It is proposed
that the community toilets would be located in 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 12, 13 and14 in order to cater the slum
population.

Under the integrated low cost sanitation scheme in Madhya Pradesh 597 toilets are being constructed
in Nasarullahganj.

6.3.3. Present and Future Demand and Supply Gaps


Public toilets are also short at an existing per seat 102 people, against 60 people as standard. The
exhibit also provides a snapshot of comparative analysis of existing level of service with level of
service desired under the Urban Development Plans Formulation & Implementation (UDPFI)
guidelines. By year 2035 public convenience having 37 seats would be required as shown in the

6.3.4. Sanitation projects


The task for preparing City Sanitation Plan for Nasrullahganj is part of the initiative of Government of
Madhya Pradesh to implement the National Urban Sanitation Policy in the State. The preparation of
this plan is a joint effort of Government of Madhya Pradesh, UN-Habitat, Nasrullahganj Nagar
Parishad and AIILSG. Funding support has been provided by UN-Habitat for preparation of this plan.
The aim is to achieve sanitation infrastructure development along with developing awareness in the
community and encourages public private partnerships in the sector.

Weaknesses Threats
 The use of public toilets is considerably low  Public places, being heavily crowded and not

especially on the days when weekly bazzars
are conducted on Thursday.

6.3.6. Issues
 The public toilets with pay and use model exists and are being run with the private sector
involvement. However, the use of these toilets is considerably low probably due to the user
charges. Further, such public toilets are not generally accessed by children –on account of
user fees as well as non-child friendly designs of such toilets.
 Non-availability of municipal water supply in the vicinity has also affected the use of individual
toilets.
 Overall availability of public toilets in the city is inadequate as the crowded areas like market
place like Royal market and JP market and commercial establishments mainly observed in
ward no. 10 and 12 are still lacking such facilities. The existing market place brings in
considerable floating population from the surrounding region which does not have any kind of
sanitation facility. Women, especially, get suffered severely due to absence of such facilities.
Such public places, in turn being heavily crowded, showcase filthy and unhygienic
environment, especially on the days when weekly bazzars are conducted on Thursday.
 The city does not have sufficient facilities of sanitation at the public places. There is need to
provide sanitation facilities at the market places (Royal market, J.P.market and Chhota bazar
and major commercial establishment along Indore road. (SH-22).
 Public level sanitation facilities for women are grossly lacking in the city.
 approximately 13% population – resort to open defecation due to lack of individual or
community sanitation facilities in their area
6.4. Solid waste management
Waste is the unwanted material left over from places of human and animal habitation. Solid waste
comprises unwanted and discarded materials from houses, street sweeping, and commercial and
industrial operations. Increase in urban population and changing life styles lead to the generation of
solid waste.

Generally, solid waste is heterogeneous in nature and a mixture of vegetables, food items, paper,
plastics, rags, glass etc. If solid waste is disposed-off in open areas without any treatment, it will
cause a negative impact on the environment and ground water.

Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) is essential for maintaining the cleanliness of our
surroundings and safeguarding the health of the citizens. As a practice, MSWM can be bifurcated into
following four sub parts i.e.; 1) Collection, 2) transportation, 3) treatment and 4) disposal of the
generated waste. Most of the ULBs often tackle all these components „in-house‟ which often results
into 1) Financially Unsustainable Operations, 2) Waste Left Untreated, and 3) every small

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 37


agglomeration ends up having dumping ground. A possible approach to make the operations
financially sustainable if to generate revenue from the waste, which does not really work well with the
smaller ULBs as the scale of waste generated is often inadequate to make any sub part „especially
Treatment and Disposal‟ financially sustainable.

An attempt to resolve the scalability issue, one of the approaches which could be looked at is „cluster
based approach‟ to handling waste, wherein a few ULBs (3-4), who are in proximity to each other,
come together to tackle the treatment and disposable part of the Waste Management while making
the operations feasible/sustainable. This attempt to scale up the operations will not only give some
financial elbow room to the ULBs, but will also help manage the environment/ pollution aspect in a
much controlled manner.

6.4.1. Generation, Collection, Transportation and disposal of Solid Waste

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is responsible for all kinds of collection i.e. primary, secondary and
tertiary which include street sweeping, collection, transportation and disposal of all solid wastes
generated in the town. The total Solid waste generated is 5.93 tones approximately per day.

There is no door to door collection in the town. The town has 14 collection points. The collection
frequency is once daily. The identified trenching ground admeasures 4.3 acres and is at a distance of
one km from the town. Solid waste management exists in the town and needs to be improved upon.

There are two tractors and two trolleys to transport the waste from collection points to trenching
ground. Total number of small hand carts is fifteen.

6.5. Drainage
Currently, there is no separate storm water
management system in Nasrullahganj but
the storm water is carried away in drains
constructed for sullage water.

6.5.1. Existing drainage system


The length of drains in Nasrullahganj is
approximately 35 kms. The current drainage
system covers about 30% of the city roads.
There are no drains in ward no. 1, 4, 5 and
15. There are three major nallahs flowing
across the city which are being used to
dispose storm as well as sullage water
collected through the drains (Refer Map-7
enclosed in annexure 4). These nallahs are Figure 6-2 Nallah carrying waste-water
Seval Pani Nala of 3.5 Kms, Muslim-Mohalla Kisan Colony Nala of 3 Kms and Colar Colony Nala of
1.5 Kms. These all natural drains carry waste water from houses, which comes from storm water
drains in the town. Existing drains are also used to carry sewage from septic tanks which leads to
blockage of drains and the nallahs.

6.5.4. Issues

 Lack of drainage network system in the city which would collect convey and dispose the storm
water efficiently.
 City is vulnerable to stagnation of water due to lack of an integrated drainage system and
proper disposal mechanism of storm water.
 Lack of design considerations and absence topographical analysis results in choking of
existing drains and frequent incidences of water logging. Clogging of existing drains due to
negligent practices of some of the citizens related to the dumping of waste in the drains.
 Field surveys and public consultations have revealed that that the silting of natural drains is a
major problem and leads to the improper disposal of storm water which often leads to the
overflowing of storm water.
 Encroachment on the open drains is a major cause of concern.

6.6. Traffic and transportation


This section reviews the existing situation in terms of their current level of service, coverage and key
issues towards services provided by Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is
the primary agency responsible for the construction of new roads within the municipal limits. Its role
with regard to road infrastructure in the town includes the construction and maintenance of all roads in
its jurisdiction, except the roads belonging to the Public Works Department (State Highway) or
National highways. The construction of internal roads, in the case of a private colony development is
the responsibility of the developer or individuals who are selling the land after sub-divisions of their
plots. However it has to verify the adequacy of proposals in these areas, at the time of sanction.
6.6.1. Existing traffic and transportation scenario

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 41


The Nagar Parishad‟s area is spread over 15 wards. The State Highway connecting Indore and
Bhopal is the spine of all road networks in the town. The old core area is on the South-West part of
the road whereas the new developed area is on the North-East part of the state highway. All major
roads start and end at state highway. The town is also connected with Sehore via road in the North.

The general street pattern is observed to be narrow with width varies from 6 m to the major arterial
roads to 3 m internal roads, with 1 to 1.5 meter wide earthen roads. The road density comes out to be
1.5 per persons in the town. The total length of the roads in the town is equivalent to 35.5 kms. The
town‟s main spine is state highway, along which the town has started growing now. It is acting as
main road for all institutional and commercial activities. The length of the state highway in the Nagar
Parishad is almost around 4 kms. There are
also few roads under PWD which connects
other villages to the town. Total road length
under PWD is about 1.5 Kms.

Due to rapid development in economic and


commercial activities, there has been an
increase in traffic plying on the state
highway. Also, due to absence of the
bypass road, the state highway remains
busy in the day time and the area around
Mandi and Bus Stand gets congested some
Figure 6-3 State Highway
times (Refer Map-6 enclosed in annexure 4).
As this traffic is just related to state highway, it does not affect the roads under Nagar Parishad but as
town is growing the increasing traffic flowing through the town will create many problems in future. So,
there would be a need for an alternative to reduce through traffic from the town after 25 years.

6.6.2. Travel characteristics


While the preferred mode of travel (motorized) in the town is Two-Wheeler, the predominant number
of short trips undertaken in the city is understood to be pedestrian in nature. The major flow of traffic
is on the state highway, which comprises of trucks/ tractors and four wheelers. Other than this, private
buses, jeeps act as inter-city transport. Total number of estimated vehicles is approximately 15,00.
(Total number of vehicles in the urban areas in Sehore district is 2,48,371 as per RTO, Sehore) The
number of two-wheelers is very high in the town as compared to number of four-wheelers.

Figure 6-4 Bus Stand

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 42


6.6.3. Parking – Current arrangements and requirements
Presently, there are no separate places for parking four wheelers or two-wheelers near commercial
areas and weekly markets. Though the parking of trucks for Mandi is within the Mandi area and the
Bus stand has sufficient capacity at present. The requirement for the parking is near the market areas
only in the future.

roads.
 Severe traffic jams due to narrow roads.
 Parallel parking on the internal roads causing
problems.

6.6.6. Issues
 Road Infrastructure: Internal town roads are very narrow, thus are very inconvenient for
vehicular movement. With the demand estimations it is evident that there is a high

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 43


requirement of the concrete and black top roads in the town for proper movement of vehicles
and people.
 Encroachments along the roads: Presence of informal activities along the road margins
illegal encroachments of pedestrian areas and internal roads are the other causes for traffic
congestion in the town. There is considerable commercial activity on the main centre road in
the town.
 State Highway as a barrier or as a source of economic development: It is anticipated that
the traffic flow will increase on this road as it connects to Bhopal to Industrial city Indore. Also
town has regional Mandi, Bus Stand etc, thus it may as a stoppage place for traffic. This will
help the town to raise the economic activities along the highway, acting as a boon for the
town. But it has been observed that the schools and few other institutional buildings are
present on the western part of the state highway. So, state highway will act as a barrier for
children and working people who need to cross the road from residential areas to their work
areas. So there would be a need to have foot over bridges or grade separators or by-pass as
a long term strategy.

6.7. Street lighting, Fire fighting and Power


6.7.1. Existing situation of Street lights and Fire Services
Nasrullahganj has a decent coverage of the roads with street lights. Presently, the town has 430
street lights. These street lights have been placed at many important places and streets in the town.
The various types of street lights includes Tube lights, Sodium vapor lamps ranging from 70 watt to
150 watt and High mast lamps Details of street lighting are given in Exhibit 6-13. A fire station or a
sub fire station serves a population of about 200000 people, though there is not a separate fire
station, the fire vehicle is parked in the police station, Nasarullahganj which is sufficient to serve the
current population of 23738 people in the town.

The present condition of street lights is not very good in the town as the average spacing between
lamp poles is more than the desired as visible in exhibit above. Also, by replacing 150 existing tube
lights with T-5 (28 W) and 275 High Power lamps with CFL (4X36) ULB can save energy of 61228.75
KWh and energy cost saving of Rs 2.6 lakhs per year

6.7.3. SWOT analysis

Exhibit 6-15 SWOT Analysis: Street lighting and fire services


Strengths Opportunities
 A diversified base of Street Lighting  High power lamps can be replaced by CFL‟s to
infrastructure reduce the electricity consumption as
percentage of high power lamps is very high in
the town.
 New installations can be supported by
underground cabling to improve the skyline of
the city and to avoid electricity theft.
Weaknesses Threats
 Lack of vigilance resulting illegal domestic and  Lack of maintenance can degrade the existing
commercial connections from street lights. infrastructure.
 Illegal connections would result high
percentage of power bills to the Nagar Parishad
and can crumble down the complete system.

6.7.4. Issues

 At present a proportion of the street lights comprise of tube lights and halogen lamps which
consumes lot of electricity, there is a need to replace these lamps with CFLs. This would help
cut down on expenses on longer term.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 45


 Presently, the cabling for lampposts is not underground. Due to this the cases of illegal
connections and theft are observed. Thus, there is a need to have underground cabling to
avoid such cases.

6.8. Urban poor and their accessibility to basic Services


6.8.1. Poverty in the town
Rising levels of urban poverty is becoming a crucial issue in the increasing urbanization. In an
environment where the people are exploited and ignored rather than supported, there is an urgent
need to develop the living standards of this section of people by providing basic services such as
water supply, health, education, sanitation, legal protection, employment etc.
Absolute poverty as per the general definition, i.e. not enough to eat, is not prevalent in the city,
except amongst a small section of people living in the slums; these people lack even housing and
other amenities and can be categorized as urban poor.
Various estimates of poverty in Nasrullahganj have converged to between 16% and 25% of the urban
population. Apart from this, the town also has a population of pavement dwellers or homeless
population, who are among the poorest in the town, but there is no available estimate of the size of
this population.
6.8.2. Slums in the town
A total of nearly 2,236 persons (Detailed Project report, IHSDP, 2008) in Nasrullahganj have been
identified as those living in slum which is equivalent to 16 % of the total population, while State‟s
average is 15.16%. The Nagar Parishad of Nasrullahganj has identified five slum pockets in the town
(Refer Map-10 in annexure 4). The ward wise slum population of Nasrullahganj has been shown in
Exhibit 6-16.

Map-10 in annexure 4 provides the locations of all the slums present in the town. There are five
identified slums in the town. There are 15 wards in the town and ward no. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 13 and
14 has slum.
General characteristics of slum
Slums in Nasrullahganj are in miserable and unhealthy living conditions. Mostly the houses are in
Kutcha state and have shabby structures. The absence of development works like roads, sewer,
water line and proper sanitation in most of the slum areas. Community facilities and social
infrastructure is also missing in the slum pockets. Average built-up area of a unit slum is
approximately 20 sq. m.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 46


6.8.3. Urban basic services in slums (In line with JNNURM‟s 7 point charter)
Access to basic services is now deemed as a criterion for identification of the poor and poor areas in
a city (essentially slums). The responsibility for service provision in an adequate manner lies with the
local body, which becomes a difficult job for increasing urban poor population. The basic services
which are needed to be provided under seven point charter includes security of tenure at affordable
prices, improved housing, water supply, sanitation and ensuring convergence of existing universal
services for education, health and social security. Slums within the town do not have adequate
infrastructure facilities. Exhibit 6-17 gives the coverage of existing infrastructure in the slums.

The detailed study under IHSDP shows that majority of slum dwellers live in temporary shelters and
most of the houses are entirely made of make shift materials such as wood, bamboo and
plastic/tarpaulin sheets. Most of the slum residents obtain their water from well or bore well, or from
Nagar Parishad‟s piped supply system. Some bore wells are fitted with individual hand pumps for
local supply, others are fitted with electrically operated submersible pump which pumps water to an
overhead tank from which it is distributed through distribution pipes to a number of stand posts. The
current sanitation alternatives in some of the slum areas of Nasrullahganj comprise an individual pour-
flush latrine. If residents do not have access to one of these sanitation facilities, then the common
practice is defecation in an open space or along a drainage nallahs. Solid waste management in the
slums is handled in the same manner as in the rest of the areas by the local body. As a result of open
defecation, lack of drainage system along the roads and improper sanitation facilities, unhygienic
conditions prevails over there. Other facilities are also lacking in the slums in the town.
6.8.4. Social security schemes and beneficiaries and other schemes
At present, some programmes are going on for poverty reduction/ slum improvement in the town.
These include programmes for provision of infrastructure/ shelter and programmes for slum
improvement/ provision of basic urban services. The Integrated Housing and Slum Development
Programme, is a step towards strengthening of housing and infrastructure projects in the interests of
the urban poor. This programme is also under implementation in the town. The detailed project report
for understanding the existing conditions and suggesting strategies was put forward in 2008. The
project cost is equivalent to Rs. 3.79 crores. The proposed components under IHSDP are:
Housing

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 47


Looking at the scarcity of pucca housing in the slum pockets, it has been proposed to construct 228
dwelling units. It was suggested that the land, if obtained after the proper planning of houses, will be
used for commercial use and the revenue generated from this would be used for operation and
maintenance.

Water
It is proposed to improve the water supply system in slums by laying water supply pipe lines.

Sanitation
Need of proper sanitation system and construction of drains as per need.

Roads
The new roads and existing kutcha roads will require entirely new construction.

Social Amenities
It has been proposed to provide Anganwadi for the slums. Other than this, the town has sufficient
educational and health facilities which cater to the slums also.

Financial Arrangement
The town of Nasrullahganj has been included in the IHSDP scheme under the JnNURM. The sharing
of funds would be in the ratio of 80:20 between central government and state Government/ULB.
Exhibit 6-18 shows the components of project under IHSDP.

Source: Detailed Project Report, Integrated Housing and Slum Development Programme (2008)
6.8.5. Present and future Housing demand
Based on the IHSDP detailed report, it has been assumed that 75% of the Slum houses need major
renovation work or rehabilitation work. Hence, a Housing demand has been estimated considering the
above assumption. Total number of housing demand in 2015 would be 437.

6.8.6. SWOT analysis


In the slums, the level of service for various services is similar to that in the rest of the city. SWOT
analysis of services in the slums would be similar to the individual SWOT analysis carried out under
the sections various sections this chapter.

6.8.7. Issues

 Higher proportion of Slum Population: The town has 5 slums, one slum in each ward. The
slum population is about 16 per cent of the total population. These slums are spread all over

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 48


the town. This dense concentration of slum dwellers along such environmentally and
developmentally sensitive locations has only resulted in the complete lack of access to basic
services, causing unhygienic living conditions.
 Land ownership: Slums have encroached private or government land and reside over these
areas. Many slum dwellers do not have tenure security for their land and house.
 Lack of awareness on slum development programs: There is a general paucity of awareness
of the various slum development schemes and programs announced from time to time by the
central and state governments. This leads to long delays in the implementation of the
programmes and overall dissatisfying results, apart from the factor of the benefits of the
programs not reaching the intended beneficiaries.

6.9. Social infrastructure


The social infrastructure has been classified into Health, Education and Recreational infrastructure.
The geographical locations of various components of Social Infrastructure are shown in Map-9
enclosed in annexure 4. The facilities shown in figure include schools, colleges, administrative office,
railway station, bus stand/terminal, police station, hospital, religious buildings, and military ground. It
can be easily seen that most of these services are present either on the state highway or on the main
connecting road inside the core area. The concentration of these facilities along the major roads
improves their connectivity.

6.9.1. Health Infrastructure


The town has one general health centre, which has 50 beds capacity. At present, in emergency and
serious situation the cases are referred further to Sehore and Bhopal hospitals. This hospital caters to
surrounding villages also. There are eight dispensaries, but no nursing home . Other than this there
are 13 clinics and pathologies in the town.

The existing service levels in education sector show a good status. Existing schools are sufficient in
number. The existing schools taken into consideration are just government schools. The problem
faced in the education sector is the lack of basic facilities in the schools.
6.9.3. Recreational facilities (Parks, Playgrounds etc)
The town has one community hall, one sub-complex, one neighbourhood park named after Dr.
Ambedkar Park, one children‟s park, one passenger waiting hall as Immovable property under the
Nagar Parishad. The town has one playground, which is also used for celebrating Dussera.

6.9.5. Issues

 Existing level of service in the health infrastructure demands a major revamping as these fall
among factors which would guide future development of the area.
 Government Hospital which receives maximum number of patients from the town and nearby
areas suffers from lack of infrastructure and poor maintenance of buildings and other assets;
also it requires the permanent doctors, at present the doctor‟s travel from other towns to
Nasrullahganj.
 A continuous flow of funds needs to be ensured for development of new infrastructure and up-
gradation of existing infrastructure.
 Most of the schools of the town lack necessary infrastructure and hence, initiatives should be
taken in equipping existing educational institutions with necessary infrastructure.

6.10. Environment
A town‟s environment is dependent on several factors which impact air quality, water quality, land
quality, noise levels, etc. Each of these aspects gets affected by individual factors or a combination of
two or more factors. Some of these factors are: Shortcomings in Solid Waste Collection, Under-
developed Storm Water Drainage system, Undeveloped Waste water disposal system, Dust and
particulate matters from vehicular traffic and industries, etc.

6.10.1. Pollution levels (Air, Water and Soil)


Due to incomplete collection of waste sometimes leads to scattering of waste which ultimately find its
way to drains, open lands and other sources of water. This leads to the pollution of land by improper
disposal of harmful waste, ground water pollution by leachate and surface water pollution by mixing of
waste with water. In addition to these, solid waste clogging the drains leads to stagnation of water
which ultimately leads to the unhygienic milieu.

Under-developed drainage network and undeveloped waste water conveyance system leads to the
stagnation of storm water and waste water in various parts of the city leading to unhygienic conditions
which poses severe threat to the health of the citizens. It is anticipated that vehicular traffic on state
highway will increase over the up-coming years, it will become a constant source of dust and other
particulate matters which pollutes urban space and causes various kinds of respiratory problems to
the citizens.

6.10.2. City green spaces (gardens and recreation – total coverage ratio)

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 51


The city has no dedicated Green Spaces. Tree Plantation could be found along the few roads. As per
UDPFI guidelines the recreational area should be around 8 to 10 per cent of the town‟s developed
area, which is not there at present. As per the guidelines there should be 10 to 12 sq.m of green
space per person. 31.5 ha of the green space requirement has been estimated to be added by 2036,
as per the guidelines.

6.10.3. Water front development and conservation


There is a Nallah in the town under the jurisdiction of Nagar Parishad. It bisects the town by passing
in North-South direction. It ends up in river Narmada. Project of Nallah Channelisation and site
development is going on. The total project cost is Rs 787 lakh. The project includes construction of
retaining walls, construction of R.C.C nala, steel hand rail and plantation of protection with tree guard.
This project will help in beautification and conservation.

6.10.4. Existing environmental regulations


Various aspects of regulating the environment are covered under various Legislations. Most important
of these are provided below:

6.10.6. Issues

1. Leakages in Solid Waste Collection System leading to water and land pollution.
2. Clogging of drains and poor waste water handling system leading to threatening environmental
situation.
3. Lack of adequate green cover in the city.
4. Open defecation.

6.11. Heritage, Conservation and Tourism


Nasrullahganj is a very old town but it does not have any building or built-form of historical
importance. So, at present there is no heritage conservation or built conservation.
Famous Salkanpur temple is just 20 kms from the town. The temple is situated on an 800-ft high
hillock. The temple here is of Ma Durga Beejasan, an incarnation of Goddess Durga.
Salkanpur Temple is in Sehore district near Budni (formally known as 'Buddha Nivasini'). The temple
have more than 1000 stairs and road is also available to reach the top at temple. About four and half
kilometer Cement Concrete Road facilitate the pilgrims to drive up to the top. Thousands of devotees
come here and climbs up these stairs to get the darshan of Durga Maa.
6.11.1. Issues
 Neglect faced by this area leading to underdeveloped infrastructure.

6.12. Existing Institutional Structure for development


6.12.1. Urban Local body structure
The local body works on the principle of constitutional dichotomy of its two sides i.e. elected body and
executive wings. The legislative wing is headed by a President (Adhyaksha) and the overall
functioning of the local body is governed by a Council. The Executive wing is headed by the Chief
Municipal Officer (CMO) and is responsible for all the management and executive functions and
assists elected members in decision making process.

Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is the main governing body which operates within the municipal limits
of Nasrullahganj town. It is responsible for the provision of basic infrastructure services to the citizens.
This includes development and operation & maintenance of infrastructure like Water Supply, Solid
Waste Management, Transportation, etc. Most of the Nagar Parishad‟s responsibilities and duties are
governed by MP Municipalities Act. Apart from the provision of basic services, under its purview, to
the citizens, it also coordinates with other departments such as UADD, TCPD, MPHB, Dept. of School
Education, Dept. of Health Education, MPSEB, MPPCB, etc. Nagar Parishad‟s responsibilities include
coordination with other departments in formulating their plans for municipal area and assist them in
the implementation of their plans and schemes. Nagar Parishad translates its responsibilities into
service delivery by means of various sub departments such as General Administration, Water Supply,
Sanitation, Solid Waste Management, Street Lighting, Fire Fighting, Roads, Drainage, Revenue,
Taxation, etc.

The Nagar Parishad is headed by a Chief Municipal Officer, who is appointed by UADD and is
entrusted with the responsibility of all municipal affairs. The elected council headed by Adhyaksha,
leads elected body of 15 elected members from 15 administrative wards. Overall, the executive wing

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 53


of the Nagar Parishad has 107 staff. The institutional structure of the Nagar Parishad is visible in

6.12.2. Town and Country planning department


The activities of Town and Country Planning Department (TCPD) are guided by the provisions of the
Madhya Pradesh Nagar Tatha Nivesh Niyam, 1973 (the Rules). The Rules provide for the
appointment of a Director to head this department. There are other officers like Additional Director,
Joint Director, Deputy Director and Assistant Director of TCPD to assist him.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 54


The State Government, as per provisions of the Rules declares a region including major urban areas
and its surrounding settlements as a planning area, and orders the preparation of a development plan
for the region. Presently, no development plan has been prepared by TCPD for Nasrullahganj town.

6.12.3. Public health engineering department


The main responsibility of providing water supply and sanitation services remains with PHED in rural
areas. As Nasrullahganj is in transition from rural to urban, the co-ordination of Nasrullahganj Nagar
Parishad with PHED becomes very important to find new potential sources etc.

6.12.4. Madhya Pradesh housing board


Madhya Pradesh Housing Board (MPHB) falls under the administrative and functional control of the
Housing and Environment Department of GoMP. The operations of the Board are governed by the
provisions of the Madhya Pradesh Housing Board Act, 1972, and rules formulated therein, amended
from time to time. The key functions of MPHB, as per its governing Act and rules include; to acquire
land from the Government, private parties and/or other departments for construction of properties; to
design, plan, construct, supervise and sell residential flats and commercial complexes; to undertake
deposit works for Government departments like Education; Welfare, Tribal Welfare Departments, etc.
for construction of schools, hostels, etc.; and to undertake repair and reconstruction work of old
structures.

6.12.5. Madhya Pradesh pollution control board


Implementation, supervision and monitoring activities pertaining to Central Pollution Control Acts and
Rules vests with the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), Government of India, and the respective
State Pollution Control Boards formed/constituted under its rules. Madhya Pradesh State Pollution
Control Board (MPPCB) headquartered in the state capital, Bhopal, carries out its operations through
seven regional offices, each located at the divisional headquarters.

The main function of the regional offices is to monitor the implementation of provisions of various Acts
governing pollution control and prevention and the Rules framed under such Acts. The pollution
prevention and control Acts include:

 The Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1974;


 The Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Cess Act 1977;
 The Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1981;
 The Environment (Protection) Act, 1986; and
 The Public Liability Insurance Act 1991.

MPPCB is also responsible for implementation of the Municipal Solid Waste (Management and
Handling) Rules, 2000 of CPCB, which spell out responsibilities of the state pollution control boards
and the urban local bodies. MPPCB is the monitoring authority with respect to ground water, ambient
air, and compost quality in urban areas. The Board is also required to monitor processing and
disposal facilities for municipal waste, with the approval of the State Urban Development Department,
Town and Country Planning Department, and Ground Water Board. According to the Rules, the ULB
is responsible for implementation of the provisions and infrastructure development for collection,
storage, segregation, transport and processing of solid waste in the town. The major areas of concern
of MPPCB with regards to ULB functions are:

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 55


 Management of solid and liquid waste disposal;
 Waste water management;
 Improvement of roads and plantation of trees;
 Traffic management to control vehicular pollution; and
 Proper planning of the city
6.12.6. Issues

 Though roles of different organizations in the provisioning of urban services are clearly
defined, plans formulated by different organizations suffer because of lack of coordination
among various organizations.
 Since Nasrullahganj is in transition phase and the large proportion of area under its
jurisdiction is agriculture, various departments who involved in provision of services to rural
areas are still in the process of transferring the roles and responsibilities to respective
departments.
 In case of street lighting, responsibility of installation of electricity poles and their electrification
lies with MPSEB. Any failure in the coordination between Nagar Parishad and MPSEB results
in poor urban governance.
 MPPCB should be regularly contacted to keep a check on urban environment and curb
pollution.
 Nagar Parishad should maintain a healthy interaction for effective and comprehensive city
planning.
 Meetings at regular intervals should be organized between various governing organizations
for effective urban governance.

59.6% from 93.6 lakhs for FY 2007-08 to
380.6 lakhs for FY 2010-11. We can
observe that capital expenditure has
decreased at a faster pace and has a
negative CAGR of 5.7 % from 125.8 lakhs
for FY 2007-08 to 105.5 lakhs for FY 2010-11. This shows that initially it was spending more on
capital intensive projects but this had decreased in the last 4 years. We need to delve into the
reasons for the same .

7.2. Revenue account
The following section provides an in-depth review of the revenue account, in order to assess the
municipal fiscal status. The revenue account comprises of two components - revenue income and
revenue expenditure.

7.2.1. Revenue income


57% of the total revenue income comes from
assigned revenue while if we look at the
composition of assigned revenue octroi and
passenger tax is the major source of revenue
while the second biggest source of revenue is
from Non-tax revenue accounting for 19% (refer
Exhibit 7-2). We will deal with each of the source
of revenue in detail in the following section.

7.2.2. Own Sources


Own source revenue includes tax and non-tax revenue. Our own source of income has grown at a
CAGR of 37.94% while having a share of 25.57%

Tax Revenue
Tax revenue comprises of property tax, integrated tax, education cess, export tax, advertisement tax
and other taxes. We can see that property tax and integrated tax constitute more than 50% of the Tax
Revenue except for 2010-11 where export tax has contributed about 40% of the tax revenue (Exhibit
7-3).

Key Observation:
The share of export tax has increased considerably over the last 4 years from around 5% in FY 2007-
08 to approx. 40% in FY 2010-11. If this trend continues then we can expect the share of tax revenue
to total revenue to increase from 6 % to double figures in the coming years and dependence on
external funds would be reduced.

Non Tax Revenue


Non Tax revenue was one of the major source of revenue from own sources which accounted for
19.41% of the total revenue income. Non tax revenue consists of rental income from municipal
properties, water charges, license and fees, development charges, building permission etc.

We can observe that other non-tax revenue except listed in the table below accounts for the
maximum share of non-tax revenue in all the four years . Others consists of income from water taxes ,
charges for water tankers etc. While rental income from municipal properties happens to be the
second highest among the non-tax revenue source .

income, it include taxes and duties collected by others and compensation in lieu of Taxes and duties
like Octroi compensation, stamp duty etc. Revenue from this source depends on the devolution from
GoMP. We can observe that in all of the years octroi compensation accounts for the maximum of the

7.2.3. Revenue expenditure


Salaries/wages and allowances”
expense constitutes the highest
among the revenue expenses. It
accounts for 54% of the total
revenue expenditure and has
been increasing at a CAGR of
38.3%. Salary comprises of
payment to Nasrullahganj Nagar
Parishad employees, Wages to
the temporary staff, pension to
staff etc.

As we can observe from the pie chart below that O&M is the second highest revenue expense
accounting for 32% of the total. In case of O&M cost, major expenditure is towards water works. O&M
expenditure has increased and has a positive CAGR of 15.5% over the last 4 years.

meal, donations and etc., where mid-day meal accounts the prominence in each year of the study.
Program expenses accounts for less than 1% of total revenue expenditure .

7.3. Capital account


The Capital account comprises of capital income and capital expenditure. What distinguishes a capital
income from revenue income is the purpose for which it is used. Capital expenditures are those
expenditures which will accrue benefits to Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad over many years.

Capital account of the Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad


was in deficit in 3 years except for 2010-11. Their
capital expenditure exceeded their income in 3 of the
4 years . This is a good thing to notice since capital
expenditure will generate returns in terms of better
standard of living for the residents. In general the
Capital Income of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad
comprises of grants and contributions from centre and
state governments. Major source of income is Capital
grants from GoI and GoMP . Exhibit 7-7 displays the
capital income and expenditure during last 4 years i.e.
from 2007-08 to 2010-11 .

We can observe from Exhibit 7-7 that approximately


98% of the capital expenditure went into capital WIP,
2% were spend on purchasing assets.

Observations
Operating Ratio: The average operating ratio of the Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is 0.64 which is
less than 1, indicating that Nasrullahganj revenue expenditure levels are lower than the revenue
income generated. This might also indicate that the revenue income is being utilized for paying off
capital expenditure since capital utilization ratio is more than one in 3 years .
Capital Utilization ratio: Average Capital utilization ratio of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is 1.10
which is more than 1, indicating that Nasrullagunj‟s capital expenditure is more than it‟s income . It
also means that they are utilizing their revenue income for capital purposes . This kind of capital
expenditure is good for the Nagar Parishad in the long term and will accrue benefits to the people
residing in the village .
Salaries expenditure to revenue income: approximately 34% of the revenue income is utilized for
paying the staff employed by Nagar Parishad.

7.5. Issues
 Capital Utilization ratio is more than one, indicating that expenditure is more than the capital
income. This indicates shortage of capital funds under various schemes.
 Tax revenue accounts for only 6.16 % of the total income, which is very less. There seems to
be a need for rationalization of different types of taxes.

7.6. Conclusion
This chapter dealt with the analysis of municipal finance and the financial health of Nasrullahganj
Nagar Parishad. The next chapter deals with City Vision, Sector Goals, Strategies, Action Plan,
Projects and Prioritization.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 62


8. CITY VISION, SECTOR GOALS, STRATEGIES, ACTION PLAN,
PROJECTS AND PRIORITIZATION
The vision for Nasrullahganj was formulated by stakeholders and IMaCS through a consensus
approach and continued consultations with the community. The consultations revolved around the
city‟s strengths, current issues, concerns, problems and the areas that need to be focused on to
achieve the desired results.

8.1. Formulation of City Vision


After completing a rapid assessment of the city‟s infrastructure, physical and environmental aspects,
and institutional and financial status, a consultative process was started with Nasrullahganj Nagar
Parishad.
The “City Vision and Sector Goals” workshop was held to explain the purpose of the CDP, the
ownership of the plan, and the need for establishing or strengthening partnerships to leverage Nagar
Parishad‟s role in facilitating economic growth and improving quality of life. The officials of other
government departments such as Health, Education, etc who have a stake in the development of the
city were also involved in this workshop. This workshop focused on highlighting the current status of
all the services provided by various Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad departments and the key issues
confronting each department.
The consultations held so far were concluded with a visioning workshop with stakeholders. Nagar
Parishad officials and other stakeholders together carried out the visioning exercise at this workshop.
The workshop started with a plenary session in which the current status and gaps in various services
were presented to the stakeholders. It was followed by the mission statements and the perceived
needs of the stakeholders. The comparison also served to identify additional priorities not mentioned
by the Nagar Parishad officials as well as discrepancies between the services provided by Nagar
Parishad and the stakeholders‟ perception of such services.
The Presentation by IMaCS team was followed by a questionnaire survey which aimed at eliciting
stakeholders‟ perception of city, city‟s infrastructure, major issues and where they want their city to be
in the future. This was followed by the ward-wise detailing of ward-specific problems and potentials
that can be harnessed for the development of ward and city.
8.1.1. Vision for the Town
For developing a vision for Nasrullahganj, IMaCS team presented three vision statements for the town
based on the discussions with various stakeholders individually.
After having discussions with stakeholders during the workshop and consultations with Nagar
Parishad officials, the vision for Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad emerged as follows:
“A sustainable city that provides adequate and equitable access of urban services for all its citizens
along with employment opportunities for everyone”
In addition to the outlining of a vision for the city, discussions were also carried out on the
identification of major themes which would serve as the watchwords for initiatives and actions to
achieve the vision. Some of the major themes that came out of workshop and consultations with
stakeholders are as follows:
1. The city should attain a key position in small scale and Agro-based industries.
2. City should be clean and beautiful with employment opportunity for everyone including women.
3. Industries both small and large scale should be encouraged in town so that employment
opportunity can be developed.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 63


4. Promote education, health institutions and a safe environment for the citizens. There should be
good supply of water in the town
8.1.2. Mission Statements
To achieve the vision, certain Mission Statements are formulated on the basis of identified themes
which would be the various lines on which development should be concentrated. Based on
consultations with stakeholders and review of development plans of other cities, following Mission
Statements are being adopted to achieve the vision.
1. To provide citizens of Nasrullahganj with sustainable and basic infrastructure facilities.
All basic infrastructure facilities, viz. Water Supply, Sewerage & Sanitation, Storm Water Drainage,
Solid Waste Management, Roads & Transportation and Street Lighting & Fire Fighting, and social
infrastructure facilities, viz. Health and Education, should be developed / upgraded to support the
economic and social development of the city.

2. To actualize the city’s existing economic potential and generate new opportunities for the
prosperity in all sections of the community.
An economic development plan should be devised for the harnessing of city‟s economic potential. It
should concentrate on the diversification of economic base of the city so as to reduce dependence on
any particular factor.

3. To develop & promote special economic activity and training centres for women.
Special training centers should be developed for women so that all the women can get trained in
various economic activities irrespective of their literacy level. Special community based economic
activities should be designed such as handicraft activities, household food products etc so that every
women should be part of gainful economic activity.

4. To uplift the urban poor and bring them at par with other sections of the community.
A comprehensive upliftment plan, comprising of employment generation, provisioning of basic
infrastructure and equal access to social infrastructure, for urban poor should be prepared to address
the existing disparity among the various sections of the community.

5. Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building.


Preparation of an institutional action plan defines roles and responsibilities of various stakeholder
agencies. It would also target at the capacity of various stakeholder agencies in terms of adequacy of
staff and competitiveness for an efficient delivery. The issue of “Motivation to work” should be an
integral part of this plan.

6. Preparation of Resource Mobilization Plan.


Preparation of a financial and operating plan that addresses the resource requirement for
implementation and maintenance of the “City Development Plan” and “Master Plan” proposals.

7. Development of New areas through Town Planning Schemes.


Development of new areas should be undertaken through implementation of Town Planning
Schemes. Detailed development plan has to be prepared for the selected new areas with the
guidance of master plan /land use plan for the city.

8. Conserve Nasrullahganj Environment


Conservation of major Nallahs and the natural environment of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. These
Mission Statements would serve the purposes of aligning/initiating development works with the
formulated vision, guidance during the policy formulations to achieve the goal and framework for the
coordination among the various stakeholder agencies.

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals


Unlike the approach adopted for sectors such as roads, SWM etc, the planning for water supply
source augmentation has been done considering the demand arising in year 2035. The systems and
infrastructure would therefore have to be designed such that the long term needs are addressed and
planned for by 2025. Therefore, the broad strategy would be to identify the projects addressing the
future demand and plan for the necessary. In addition to the improvements in infrastructure, the
stakeholders have also suggested that the municipal manpower dealing exclusively with the water
supply should be strengthened. Table given below lists the broad strategies required to achieve the
given targets in water sector.

Broad Strategies required achieving the target:


1. Augmentation of water supply
2. Minimize water losses in transmission and distribution and enhance overall management of
distribution
3. Promotion of efficiency in service delivery and strengthening of cost recovery mechanisms
4. Conservation of Rain Water
5. Improving Efficiency, Accountability and Transparency in the system
6. Exploring possibility of Private sector participation to contract out the O&M part of the project
Action Plan following the Strategies
The table below presents the broad action plans being proposed to address the gaps identified in the
existing levels:

collecting the user charges.”

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals


The lack of a sewerage network in town necessitates the development of a sewerage network which
would efficiently manage the existing and future demand. Similar to planning and designing for water
supply network, the planning for development of sewerage network would have to consider the
demand arising in 2035 and make necessary provisions for the same by 2025. The systems and
infrastructure would therefore have to be designed such that the long term needs are addressed and

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 67


planned for by 2025. The broad strategy therefore should be to identify the projects addressing the
future demand in the areas of sewerage and sanitation which the Nagar Parishad would have to take
up in the short run for which necessary investments will also have to be planned for. Table below
presents the broad strategies to achieve the given targets for sewerage and sanitation sector.

Broad Strategies to achieve the targets:

1. Effective Waste Water collection and treatment


2. Provision of safe Sanitation facilities to population and households that lack in-house sanitation
facilities.
3. Make the system Cost effective - Cover the whole area with sewerage network.

Table given below shows broad action plan needed in sewerage and sanitation sector.

Broad Action Plan for Sewerage and Sanitation Sector:


1. Development of a Sewerage System covering:
a. Waste Water collection network / Septic Tanks
b. Augmentation of Sewerage treatment capacity
2. Recycle waste water for non-potable use
3. Development of Community Toilets (covering households that lack in-house sanitation facilities)
and Public Toilets (for floating population).
Details of Projects Envisaged

For meeting the demand arising in 2035, the following sub projects are being recommended and
would have to be executed by the ULB.
Nasrullahganj has less than 25% area as development land but the settlements in the town are
spread over the entire area and are not concentrated together at one place, therefore it would be
beneficial for the town both financially and for operations and maintenance to implement
Decentralized Waste Water Treatment System (DEWATS) for comprehensive sewerage system, and
dispose-off generated sewage. This DEWAT system take into care the demand generated in the year
2035. The advantages of DEWAT system are that; it requires minimum space and hence be
accommodated easily under paved pathways and parking lots etc. or small available spaces; It
requires lesser energy and operation cost; This system promotes the reuse of water for non-potable
purposes; It can be easily blended with the landscape; It cannot be switched off so it ensures efficient
working irrespective of external factors and it can treat waste water with high fat, suspended solids
and BOD. Since this system is decentralized, the zones would be defined as per population and
location for DEWATS and the treatment system would be developed to safely dispose-off the sewage.
The treated water can be used for agricultural use.

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals
In order to facilitate improved solid waste management, the Nagar Parishad would have to focus on
various aspects – adoption of better practices to ensure proper collection, segregation and disposal of
waste and the second being augmenting the existing infrastructure. The current status of the
infrastructure needs to be improved by increasing the equipment required for effectively handling the
waste, and most importantly developing an adequate sized landfill site. Apart from the focus on
augmenting the resources, the Nagar Parishad would be required to train its conservancy staff to
carry out the tasks effectively. Immediate priority needs to be placed on improving the skills of the
conservancy staff and also to increase.

Development of Vermi-Composting Plant
Vermicomposting involves the stabilization of organic solid waste through earthworm consumption
which converts the material into worm castings. Vermi technology, a tripartite system which involves
biomass, microbes and earthworms is influenced by the abiotic factors such as temperature,
moisture, aeration etc. Conditions unfavorable to aerobic decomposition result in mortality of
earthworms and subsequently no vermicomposting occurs. Hence, pre-processing of the waste as
well as providing favorable environmental condition is necessary for vermicomposting. It is relatively
more stabilized and harmonizes with soil system without any ill effects. Unfavorable conditions such
as particle size of biomass and extent of its decomposition, very large temperature increase,
anaerobic condition, toxicity of decomposition products etc. influence activity of worms. Tests in India
have shown that vermin compost application can double wheat yields and quadruple yields of fodder.

Method to prepare Vermin-Compost: The MSW is segregated i.e. all the dry wastes such as clothes,
carry bags and other dry wastes are segregated from wet waste. A thatched roof shed preferably
open from all sides with unpaved (Kutcha) floor is erected in East West direction length wise to
protect the site from direct sunlight. A shed area of 12‟X12‟ is sufficient to accommodate three vermin

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 71


beds of 10‟X3‟ each having 1‟ space in between for treatment of 9-12 quintals of waste in a cycle of
40-45 days. The length of shed can be increased/decreased depending upon the quantity of waste to
be treated and availability of space. The height of thatched roof is kept at 8 feet from the centre and 6
feet from the sides. The base of the site is raised at least 6 inches above ground to protect it from
flooding during the rains. The wet waste is pulverized and arranged in the form of vermin bed over the
raised ground. The loaded waste is finally covered with a Jute Mat to protect earthworms from birds
and insects. Water is sprinkled on the vermin beds daily according to requirement and season to keep
them moist. The waste is turned upside down fortnightly without disturbing the basal layer (vermin
bed).The appearance of black granular crumbly powder on top of vermin beds indicate harvest stage
of the compost. The earthworms go down and the compost is collected from the top without disturbing
the lower layers (vermin bed). The first lot of Vermi compost is ready for harvesting after 22 ½ months
and the subsequent lots can be harvested after every 6 weeks of loading. The vermin bed is loaded
for the next treatment cycle.

Outcome

Details of Projects Envisaged


Following are the projects proposed during the stakeholder consultation and also based on the rapid
urban assessment carried out by the Consultant.

Development of Root Zone Treatment System (RZTS): It is observed that the sewage flowing
through nallahs joins Rivers in untreated condition and creates heavy risk of river pollution. Storm
water can be treated as well with RZTS after removal of settle able substances. It is a low-cost and
maintenance free option that uses the capacity of plants (especially certain reeds – hence also called
reed bed technology) to absorb contaminants and structurally modify them for treating water. It is
based on the principle of attached growth biological reactors similar to conventional trickling filters
with combination of aerobic and anaerobic zones. The contaminants present in the wastewater are
treated as they seep through the root-zone of the plants by a combination of plants, soil bacteria and
hydraulic flow systems resulting in physical, chemical, and microbiological processes. Oxygen present
in the zone facilitates the degradation of wastewater. A wide variety of microorganisms present in the
root-zone of the plants results in efficient removal. There is efficient reduction of pathogens also by
percolation through the bed material. Thus, it can be developed in Nasrullahganj along storm water
drains.

Action Plan following the Strategies


In the case of the road sector, the broad strategy which the Nagar Parishad should follow is one
wherein the existing gaps in this sector and the future requirements would be addressed in terms of
two categories of priority or short term needs and long term needs. The overall plan in this sector
should be based on two principles:

 Medium term action plan aimed at development of transport infrastructure for a period of 5-10
years to bring about coordinated development among different components. These measures
typically will include various infrastructure projects, which will be directed at network
improvements such as parallel roads, link roads, slip roads, etc.
 Long-term action plan aimed at development of structure plan for the Urban Area with Transit as
one of the lead components, which will direct the urban growth so as to bring about a structural fit
between transit infrastructure and Urban Growth.

The broad sector interventions to address both the short and long term requirements have been
enlisted below:

For the provision of medical infrastructure, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad‟s role is limited to primary
level services and in even the Government Hospital not much facility is found. To promote medical
facilities, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad must provide a conducive environment for other government
agencies and private developers in the form of support infrastructure, incentives, etc.
Future steps towards improvement in health care facilities should be based on certain principles.
There needs to be an emphasis on participatory planning in medical care, quality health care and
client satisfaction and preventive health care measures. Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should target
the eradication of preventable diseases by 2015. This may be helped by the supply of good quality
drinking water and sanitation facilities and strict control and supervision of hotels and roadside food
vendors. A resolution of the mosquito menace will eradicate the slew of health issues. Total
vaccination of the population as per WHO schedules should also be completed by 2015.
To ensure quality medical care to the under-privileged, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should make
plans for involving private doctors by providing them with free space in existing Parishad
dispensaries. To achieve the goals by finalized strategies, we have estimated the number of hospitals
and other medical institutions that would be required in the city. These estimations have been done in
accordance to the UDPFI guidelines.

8.2.11. Environment
Sector Goals
“To accomplish clean, green and safe living environment for all citizens”

Key areas which would be addressed by detailed strategies and action plan to meet the sector goal
are provided below. These areas have been identified on the basis of workshops, consultations and
review of best practices in the sector.

 Pollution Sources; Air, Water, Soil and Noise


 Demand / Supply side control
Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals
For retaining the healthy status of Nasrullahganj‟s urban environment, several planning and
conservation initiatives need to be taken. This could be achieved through the proper zoning of
activities, provision for sufficient breathing space in new development and adoption of proper
landscape design practices at the city level. It is also important to promote conservation in the region

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 81


consciously. There should be a clear-cut strategy to conserve and protect the physical environment,
including rivers and natural drains in and around Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. It is important to
weigh the environmental impact of the new programs or development schemes. Lately, a large
number of unauthorized layouts have come up in the city, near to the city‟s fringes or in fringe areas. It
is important to devise a plan, which can check the growth of these unauthorized developments,
especially within the city‟s precincts. Lake and River conservation should also be explored with the
possibilities of reviving lakes as water sources or points of interest in the city.

Action Plan following the Strategies and Projects Envisaged


This section discusses various aspects of urban environment and their addressing by the projects
proposed in other urban services. In addition to this, some projects are also proposed with specific
focus on improving the quality of environment.

1. Air Quality: Periodic monitoring and review is essential to check air quality. To create awareness
amongst user groups, the status of air pollution may be revealed through display systems
instituted at major locations in the city. Suitable plantations or green cover should be provided on
major routes to supplement better air quality. This would partially be addressed by the
development of Parks in the town and a massive tree plantation drive.
2. Water Pollution: Efforts/schemes should be designed to check the diversion of sewage flow into
major Nallahs through appropriately located sewage treatment plants. Considering the issues
related to the demand for treating large amounts of sewage generated in Nasrullahganj,
decentralized sewage treatment is recommended. This aspect would be addressed by the
development and up gradation of Sewerage & Sanitation facilities, Storm water drainage
infrastructure and strengthening of solid waste collection/transportation system.
3. Development of a Regional Plan: To ensure sustainable development with optimum resource
utilization, it may be necessary to develop a Nasrullahganj Regional Plan or Master Plan. For
maintenance of open space, the planning authority at the regional level should prepare a detailed
inventory of the space and explore its probable multiple uses or forms for recreation and visual
pleasure. Possibilities to include the private sector for maintenance of these areas should be
explored.
8.2.12. Economic Development
Sector Goals
“Sustainable economic development on the basis of inherent strengths of the city through
promotion of health, education, tourism and industrial sectors – focus on local employment
opportunities”

Strategies to achieve the Sector Goals


The town economy is predominantly agrarian in nature with majority of the workers engaged in
primary sector activities and educated youths migrate out of city for employment opportunity. The
town lacks a sound economic activity base. The weak town economy has also resulted in the brain-
drain which in turn affects the town‟s economy. Resources should be mobilized to provide support to
boost the local economy. Measures should be taken to establish small and medium scale industries.
Special care needs to be taken for women employment and education. In a nutshell, following
strategies need to be adopted for sustainable economic development:

 Incentivizing agriculture,
 Strengthening the markets,
 Improving transportation infrastructure,

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 82


 Bringing Nasrullahganj on Railways Map of India,
 Promoting small & medium scale industries.
Action Plan following the Strategies
Exhibit 8-40 presents the broad action plans being proposed to address the gaps identified in the
existing levels.

Exhibit 8-40 Economic Development Long Term and Short Term Interventions
Sector  Rejuvenation of trade and commerce
Interventions  Development of an industrial area
Required  Promotional activities to showcase Nasrullahganj potential
Expected  New employment opportunities
Outcome  Improved average income and access to better facilities
Projects Envisaged
For promoting economic development of the town, following projects have been envisaged for
Nasrullahganj.

1. Development of Commercial Areas: This can further be achieved by development of new


commercial areas and up gradation of existing commercial areas. New commercial areas can
include dedicated markets for important commodities or general markets. In addition to the
development of new markets, existing markets can be upgraded to increase their capacity and
provide better services to the users and customers.
2. Development of Industrial Area for Small & Medium scale industries: With the objective of
diversifying the economic base of Nasrullahganj Town, an industrial park for small & medium
scale industries should be developed. A land should be identified either within the municipal limits
or near to the city boundary and proposal should be sent to the appropriate authorities for the
same. This would thrust to the employment generation activities result into the overall upliftment
of the society.
3. Redevelopment of Hawkers Zone: The hawker‟s zone in city is not organized. The Hawkers
zone would dedicate space to the hawkers and hence reducing congestion on the city roads,
making waste collection easier and making it easier for customers to shop.

The decentralization of urban functions to local bodies has increased their responsibilities manifold.
For the prescribed level of service delivery, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should take concerted
actions to augment the capacity, wherever necessary, and enable existing staff to perform efficiently
by providing them with necessary training. E-governance will be very helpful in smoothening various
process & procedures. It will also lead to an expeditious service delivery.

Action Plan following the Strategies and Projects Envisaged


Following is the list of the projects that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should take to improve urban
governance in Nasrullahganj.

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


its administration. Computerization will benefit most of its functions ranging from municipal
accounting to tax management. The introduction of E-Governance will help in smoothening the
processes and improvement in the efficiency.
2. Capacity Building: The procurement of computers should be supplemented by providing training
to the staff.
3. GIS Mapping: A GIS mapping of the city properties will be very helpful in the provision of efficient
services to the citizens. This would also help in keeping a tab on tax evaders.

8.3. Prioritisation of Projects based on Questionnaire Survey Result


In the second workshop conducted on December 23rd, 2011, questionnaire survey was carried out for
the formulation of city vision and sector strategies. The discussion took place with around 25
stakeholders who included, CMO, Adshyakha and other eminent people of the city. The questionnaire
consisted questions pertaining to the level of city infrastructure such as water supply, road, sewerage,
college, hospitals, mode for economic development, overall quality of life in city, vision in their opinion
for the city. Each sector status was discussed in detail and their view on sector development was
taken.

8.3.1. Methodology for Questionnaire Survey

Sample Set for the Interview


Around 25 stakeholders participated in the workshop and care was taken that representation from
various sector be present during the survey. Stakeholders consisted of senior Government officials
like CMO of Nagar Parishad, Elected Body head – Adhyaksha and Parshads (Ward Councilors),
citizens, reporters, Nagar Parishad staffs. During the town survey, verbal survey of questionnaire was
already carried out from Schools and Hospitals.

Questions for the Interview


The interview questionnaire consisted of 12 questions pertaining to sectors like main problem of the
town, sector specific questions on water supply, drainage, social infrastructure, roads, solid waste
disposal, schools, health facility, and economic development options. Similarly 14 questions were
given ward specific. Detailed questionnaire is attached in Annexure II.

Analysis of the response

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 84


The respondents were asked to rate the problems and then answers across the respondent were
added to get the number of respondents rating a particular problem as high, medium or low. A score
was calculated for the each of the subsectors by having weighted average calculation; the most
important bucket was given the highest weight. The scores thus obtained were rank ordered in
descending order to identify the sub sectors in order of priority.

8.3.2. Ranking of the town requirement


Ranking of the town requirements and priorities as per outcome of the questionnaire survey is
presented in the exhibits below. As can be seen in the exhibits below that Sewerage, Storm Water
Drainage and Solid waste Management takes the top most priorities when it comes to need of
infrastructure development in the town. Water supply in the town comes lowest in the priority list as
there is an on-going project under construction and it is assumed that water supply infrastructure in
the town would be adequately addressed once the supply from the new project commissions.

If we talk of priorities within particular sectors, currently within social infrastructure, Government
hospital facilities need to be enhanced followed with development of new markets. It is felt that
blocked drains are a major cause for non-performing drainage infrastructure which is also
complimented by road encroachment which is a major traffic concern. Talking of water supply in the
town, currently, insufficient water supply and poor quality of water are priority concerns, though it is
believed that the project in pipeline would address these to satisfaction.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 87


9. CITY INVESTMENT PLAN
To achieve the formulated vision of Nasrullahganj, a City Investment Plan (CIP) has been prepared
through a comprehensive process of assessment of gaps in physical and social infrastructure sectors,
which includes with the various rounds of the public consultations. This assessment has led to the
identification of sector specific strategies, implementation actions and associated reforms with specific
inputs from stakeholders.

The strategies adopted primarily have three dimensions; improving the service delivery by efficiency
measures, improving service delivery by creating infrastructure assets and improving the governance
aspects of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad. This section summarizes the capital investments required
for creating infrastructure assets and various strategic interventions required in the implementation of
such projects; these strategies are both investments oriented and administrative oriented.

9.1. City Investment Plan (CIP)


The City Investment Plan is a multi-year scheduling of identified and prioritized investments. The
scheduling or phasing of the plan is based on the assessment of fiscal resources‟ availability (for new
investments and O&M), technical capacity for construction and O&M, and the choice of specific
improvements to be carried out by 2015.

The need for the CIP is on account of:

 City growth and infrastructure needs (to be carried out once every five years);
 Scheduling of investments of ongoing projects due to cost and/ or time overruns;
 Assigning of priorities within the constraints of available financial resources.

9.2. Institutionalizing the CIP Process


The City Investment Plan is an important element and is significant in terms of the city‟s management
process and sustainability with regard to the delivery of basic services. The CIP will also provide a
framework for the annual budget cycle of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad for the next five years. As a
part of Nasrullahganj CDP, CIP includes the following:

 The desired service levels/ standards for infrastructure provision;


 Identified the roles and responsibilities of various stakeholders in the implementation of
identified projects;
 Project phasing and strategies for implementation.

In Nasrullahganj, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad has the primary responsibility of delivering municipal
services. So the CDP proposals will have to be implemented by the Nagar Parishad. The projects,
prioritization, investment phasing, strategies and action plan are framed accordingly.

The CIP involved the identification of public facilities to cater demand of the city populace in the years
2015, 2025 and 2035. The projects have been identified through a demand-gap analysis for various
urban services. Identification of projects was followed by their prioritization based on the stakeholder‟s
consultation. The projects identified are aimed at ensuring the optimal and efficient utilization of
existing infrastructure systems and enhancing the capacity of the systems/services to cater to the
demands of future population. In addition to the projects which are related to major urban services,
CIP also includes developmental projects like greenery development, parking spaces, system
modernization etc.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 88


The CIP and forecasted future needs for provision of capital facilities under each identified sector is
presented below. These assets will help Nasrullahganj in improving the quality and coverage of
service for the current population as well as accommodate the expected increase in population. In
some of the sectors like source augmentation for water supply, development of landfill site etc, a
planning horizon of 25 years has been considered.

9.3. Summary of Investments


The total estimated capital investment required for providing efficient services to the present
population and future population of Nasrullahganj by the year 2035 is Rs. 76.24 crores at constant
prices. Of the total identified investment a total of Rs. 32.74 Crores of investment has been proposed
till year 2015.

The planning horizon for the projects has been considered on the basis of demand generation in
various decades and degree of initial capital investment. Hence, some of the sectors have been
planned for the short term as well as the long term whereas some sectors have been divided into
various sub-parts in which some of the sub-parts have been planned for the long term only whereas
rest of the sub-parts have been planned for short term and long term.

The phasing of the identified projects and investments is based on the following principles.

 Priority needs, with developed areas receiving priority over future development area;
 Inter and intra-service linkages, viz. water supply investments shall be complemented by
corresponding sewerage/ sanitation improvements;
 Size and duration of the requirements, including preparation and implementation period.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 106


As mentioned that the total investment required for the next five years for the entire city is Rs. 36.97
crore, out of which about Rs. 4.39 crore towards Education and Health sector, which will not be
required by the ULB as implementation agency for these services is state government.

Following chapter details about the existing plan under which these investments can be considered.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 107


10. FINANCIAL AND OPERATING PLAN
10.1. Introduction
The sustainable investment capacity of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad is assessed through a
Financial Operating Plan (FOP), which gives a yearly forecast of finances for the short term i.e. year
2012-13 to year 2015-16. A salient feature of the FOP is that all outstanding dues, including debt and
non-debt liabilities if any, have been taken into account.
The accounts data of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad for the financial years from year 2006-07 to year
20010-11 have been to determine the past trends in revenue and expenditure. The trends were then
analyzed to arrive at appropriate growth assumptions for various revenue and expenditure items. The
forecasting of revenue and expenditure accounts was followed by the factoring of capital investments
identified under CIP to assess the investment sustainability of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad.
The project funding structure comprises of grants under the State scheme (accounting for 30 per cent
of the funding); internal resources and loans accounting for the rest. 75% of the loan repayment would
be the responsibility of the state and rest 25% to be managed by ULB. The level of investment that
Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad can sustain is determined by studying the overall surpluses/ year-to-
year opening balance and debt service coverage ratio. If the debt service coverage ratio - DSCR
(amount of surplus available to pay interest and to repay principal that is due) falls below 1, then the
investments are reduced gradually till the DSCR exceeds 1 in all the years in the forecast period.
The main items of income and expenditure, classified into the revenue account and the capital
account, are projected in the FOP under the following categories.

Categories of FOP Projections


1. Revenue Account Receipts:
a. Taxes, Non Tax Sources, Assigned Revenue and
b. Grants, Contribution and Subsidies
2. Revenue Account Expenditure:
a. Establishment
b. Operation and Maintenance
c. Debt Servicing- Existing and New Loans
d. Phasing of non-debt liabilities, and
e. Additional O&M
3. Capital Income and
4. Capital Expenditure

10.2. Financing Strategies for the CIP


In determining a long-term financial strategy, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad plans to raise resources
and funds for the CIP through:

1. Grants available under the State scheme Framework (as 30 per cent State Govt. Grants).
2. Available internal resources and improving upon the same through by following methods:-
a. Revision of the Unit Area Value at certain levels, which would lead to revision in Annual letting
Value (applicable for Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad )
b. Revision of Water charges at specific intervals. Though the revision in water tariff should be
done on annual basis to recover 100% of the O&M cost. However, annual revision is not a
general practice in all the ULBs across the state, so revision after every five years is
envisaged for projections.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 108


c. Introduction of Sewerage Charges in 2014-15, after implementing the Sewerage Project
d. Maintenance of the collection performance of taxes and charges at certain minimum levels for
current and for arrears
e. Borrowings from market or financial institutions

The increasing urbanization and population has led to the deterioration of the existing urban
infrastructure of the towns and cities in the state and across the country. In order to tackle this
situation and implement the projects identified under CDPs, the state government of Madhya Pradesh
has launched the few schemes namely chief minister urban infrastructure scheme, chief minister
water supply scheme. The funds under the schemes discussed can be utilized to develop the projects
suggested in the CIP.

Chief Minister Urban Infrastructure Scheme

This scheme aims to develop the projects identified under the CDPs along with the other
infrastructure developments in the town. The duration of the scheme is for 10 years and it includes all
the Nagar Nigams, Nagar Palika and Nagar Parishads in the state. The nagar Parishads would be
entitled to Rs. 1 Crore fund by the state government every year.

The criteria for selecting the towns for funding is as follows

1. The town with PPP projects would be given priority


2. Towns where property tax collection is minimum 50% of property tax coverage and minimum 60%
property tax should be collected. Besides this, it is mandatory that the town should collect 85%
property tax after receiving the grant within a period of 3 years.
3. Town having district headquarter or tourism significance
4. Other towns

Grants to be given for developing transport infrastructure, social infrastructure, parks and playgrounds
is discussed below

Grant Loan Loan Repayment of 80%


Category
State Self State Self
Nagar Parishad 50% 50% 70% 30%

Chief Minister Urban Water Supply Scheme

This scheme aims at taking up new water supply schemes and ongoing water supply schemes which
are short of funds. This scheme is for a period of 10 years and extends to all the Nagar Nigams,
Nagar Palikas and Nagar Parishads of the state. The towns will be prioritized on the basis of property
tax collection from the ULBs. The towns making a property tax collection of more than 50% would be
preferred, besides this, it is mandatory that the property tax collection of the selected town should be
85% after receiving the grant within a period of 3 years.

Funding for towns less than 50000 population- 30% grant and the remaining 70% would be arranged
by the ULB from its revenue and loans from financial institutions.

10.3. Finance Projections


Current revenue sources are projected under built-in growth assumptions for income and expenditure
items, to assess the impact of each such revenue enhancement measure being suggested. The

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 109


projections also aim at estimating the surplus that will be available for servicing new debt. Part of the
surplus, after meeting the additional O&M expenses on newly created assets and infrastructure, is
translated into debt size and project size (grant component plus debt component) based on certain
assumptions regarding interest rate, repayment method and loan-grant mix.

A spreadsheet FOP model has been customized to depict the financial position of Nasrullahganj
Nagar Parishad; the investment sustaining capacity of Nagar Parishad is assessed based on the FOP
assumptions. The model was used to calculate future surpluses under various scenarios involving
combinations of internal revenue improvement, state support, financing terms, etc.

10.3.1. Municipal Account – Growth Projections and Assumptions


The standard assumptions under which the projections are carried out and certain expenditure control
and revenue augmentation measures proposed in line with the mandatory and optional reforms
implemented by ULB, are presented below in Exhibit 10-1.

10.3.2. Investment Capacity / Sustenance


Given the existing financial position of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad, the revenue and capital
accounts are projected against the growth scenario and assumptions presented above. The City
Investment Plan (CIP) prepared in the previous chapter shows that the total investment required to
develop Nasrullahganj City is Rs. 32.74 crore at constant prices till 2015 (of the total Rs. 76.24 crore
investment identified for funding till 2035). It includes about Rs. 4.39 crore towards Education and
Health sector, which are not provided by Nagar Parishad. Hence for FOP is generated from the
sustainable investment point of view in line with current growth trends against the identified
investment for Nagar Parishad of Rs. 14.74 crore at constant prices till 2015, which excludes
investment required for Health and Education sector.

Base Investment Capacity


Base Investment Capacity is estimated considering business as usual case, where Nasrullahganj
Nagar Parishad has not taken any grant under UIDSSMT scheme and has not done any reforms to
increase their revenue income. At this scenario Nagar Parishad will be able to sustain only 6.6 % of
the total investment identified for year 2015, which is about Rs. 1.74 crore at constant price and Rs.
2.08 crore at current price.

Impact of Reforms on Investment Capacity of Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad


Following are the cases considered as shown in Exhibit 10-2 and sustainability was checked.

Scenario 1: With reforms in Property Tax, Water Charges and Sewerage charges
This case assumes the reforms in property tax, Water and Sewerage have been implemented and
accordingly the investment capacity has increased by Rs. 0.79 crore above the base investment
capacity. These reforms will increase the total sustainable capacity to 9.6%.
Scenario 2: Reforms and State Grants ,without debt Funding
This case assumes that all the reforms suggested above are being implemented and UIDSSMT
grants are also availed. In this scenario Nagar Parishad‟s sustainable capacity will increase to 39.6 %,
which is 30% in addition to scenario 1. Now Nagar Parishad will be able to sustain investment of
about Rs. 10.44 crore at constant price and Rs. 10.48 crore at current price.
Scenario 3: Reforms and UIDSSMT grants along with debt Funding
This case assumes that Nagar Parishad can increase their sustainable capacity by taking debt from
any financial institution or private banks in addition to the implementation of reforms suggested above
and grants under with UIDSSMT grants. In this scenario can sustain up to 50.50 % of the total
investment identified, which is 11 % more than without debt funding scenario. Now Nagar Parishad
will be able to sustain investment of about Rs. 13.32 crore at constant price and Rs. 15.91 crore at
current price. The impact of the different scenario on the investment sustainability of Nasrullahganj
Nagar Parishad is shown below in Exhibit 10-3.
Exhibit 10-3 Impact of reforms and grants on investment capacity

10.4. F
und Requirement
For the identified investment for Nagar Parishad of Rs. 26.37 crore at constant prices only Rs. 13.32
crore is sustainable. Exhibit 10-4 shows the funding pattern for sustainable investment

Exhibit 10-4 CIP Funding Pattern


S. No Mode of Funding Source Amount (Rs. Crore) % of Total Investment

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 112


S. No Mode of Funding Source Amount (Rs. Crore) % of Total Investment
Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad
Total Identified Investment till 2015 (current price) 32.58

Sustainable Investment till 2015 (constant price) 13.32 50.50
Sustainable Investment (current) 15.91
1 Grants UIDSSMT 13.09 49.7
2 Loans Open Market/ FIs 28.1 1.06
3 Own sources Nagar Parishad 15.91 59.36

From the above analysis, it is very clear that ULB alone even with the grant support under UIDSSMT
scheme and reforms will not be able to implement 100% of the projects identified under the City
Investment Plan (CIP). But they can substantially increase their sustainable capacity with these
reforms. So, it is recommended that ULB along the support from UADD, GoMP should try to develop
few projects at PPP model and additional grant support from GoMP.

It is also recommended that on the same lines of the National Urban Information System (NUIS)
programme for strengthening of information system at Nagar Parishad level, GoMP should also
provide support to all the local bodies in Madhya Pradesh, which are not covered in the mentioned
programme.

10.5. Financial Operating plan


Based on all the assumption for projections discussed in the Exhibit 10 1 and the implementation of
the strategies to improve sustainability of Nagar Parishad, the FOP has been prepared. However, the
summary of final revenue model is presented in Exhibit 10-5.

11. URBAN REFORMS
11.1. Introduction
In recent times, several initiatives have been taken by GoI and GoMP to a) improve infrastructural
facilities and help create durable public assets and quality oriented services in cities & towns, b)
enhance public-private-partnership in infrastructural development, and c) promote planned integrated
development of towns and cities. A key aspect in achieving the aforementioned goals is improvement
in Urban Governance and Service Delivery. The underlying objective of most of the recent initiatives
is to make ULBs financially sound and enable them to undertake new projects.

The main thrust of the revised strategy of urban renewal is to ensure improvement in urban
governance so that Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) and parastatal agencies become financially sound
with enhanced credit rating and ability to access market capital for undertaking new programmes and
expansion of services. In this improved environment, public-private participation models for
provisioning of various services would also become feasible.

Among various schemes aimed at the urban renewal, the most important schemes are Jawaharlal
Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) and Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme
for Small & Medium Towns (UIDSSMT). Whereas JNNURM has its own selection criteria for the cities
which can receive funding under it, UIDSSMT expands the ambit of beneficiaries to cover all
cities/towns as per 2001 census excepting cities/towns covered under JNNURM.

UIDSSMT aims at improvement in urban infrastructure in towns and cities in a planned manner. To
achieve this objective, State Governments, Urban Local Bodies and parastatal agencies are required
to accept implementation of an agenda of reforms as funding under UIDSSMT has been linked with
the ULBs performance towards the implementation of anticipated reforms.

The proposed reforms at various level of governance have been categorized into:

1. Mandatory Reforms at the level of the State Government,


2. Mandatory Reforms at the level of the Urban Local Body
3. Optional Reforms at level of the State Government/Urban Local Body

11.2. Mandatory Reforms at the level of the State Government


11.2.1. Implementation of the 74th Constitutional Amendment Act
Desired Objective
UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/cities in implementing the 74th
Amendment of the Constitution, with the objective of implementing decentralization measures. The
State should ensure meaningful association and engagement of Urban Local Bodies in planning the
function of parastatal agencies as well as the delivery of services to the citizens.

Current Status

1. The State Government has implemented 1) constitution of municipalities, 2) composition of


municipal councils, 3) reservation of seats for women, SCs & STs, 4) constitution of district
planning committees and, 5) incorporation of schedule 12 into the state municipal act. The
Process for constitution of MPCs in Million Plus cities is in progress.
2. In addition to incorporation of schedule 12 in the state municipal act, all the functions that were
required to be transferred to ULB has been transferred by MP state government to ULBs.

3. The SFC has been constituted and recommendations have been submitted by the same.
Timeline for Reforms
All the reforms which were applicable under this section have been carried out.

11.2.2. Public Disclosure Law


Desired Objective
UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Public Disclosure, with the
objective that municipalities and parastatal agencies will have to publish information about the Nagar
Parishad and its functioning on a periodic basis and disclose it to all the citizens. Such information
includes but is not limited to statutorily audit statements of annual performance covering operating
and financial parameters, and service levels for various services being rendered by the Nagar
Parishad.

Current Status
GoMP has issued instructions to ULBs to disclose as much information as possible through different
means such as web sites, notice board, etc.

Timeline for Action on Reforms


Public Disclosure Law was implemented in 2008-09. Provision has been made in Acts and Rules
have been framed.

11.2.3. Rationalization of Stamp Duty


Desired Objective
UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/cities to rationalize Stamp Duty, with
the objective of establishing an efficient real estate market with minimum barriers on transfer of
property so as to be put into more productive use.

Current Status
Earlier Stamp duty rates in Madhya Pradesh stood at 7.5% of the Market value. The rates have been
reduced to 5%, and are in effect from 1st April 2011. The computerization of whole system is also in
the progress.

Timeline for Reforms


The reform has been implemented in the state. Reduction in rates by 0.5% were implemented in year
2008-09, that continued for FY 09-10 and 10-11 and then finally rate reduced to 5% w.e.f. 1st April,
2011.

11.2.4. Repeal of Urban Land Ceiling and Regulation Act

Desired Objective
UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in the Repeal of ULCRA with the
objective of increasing the supply of land in the market, removing the inefficiencies and in the
establishment of an efficient land market.

Current Status
The ULCRA has been repealed in the year 2000.

Timeline for Reforms


All the reforms under this section have been carried out.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 116


11.2.5. Rent Control
Desired Objective
UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Rent Control, with the
objective of having a system that balances the rights and obligations of landlords and tenants to
encourage construction and development of more housing stock, as well as promoting an efficient
and robust rental/tenancy market, so as to improve the availability of housing across all income
categories.

Current Status
The MP Parisar Kirayedari Vidheyak, 2010 was passed by the State Assembly in March, 2010. Thus,
the reform for rent control in the state has been partially achieved. Bill has been sent to GoI for

the objective of institutionalizing citizen participation as well as introducing the concept of the Area
Sabha in urban areas. The larger objective is to involve citizens in municipal functions, e.g. setting
priorities, budgeting provisions, etc. The Community Participation Law refers to the appropriate
provisions that need to be made in the state-level municipal statute(s) for the establishment of such a
3- or 4-tiered structure precisely as described above. These enactments will also need to ensure clear
definition of functions, duties and powers of each of these tiers, and provide for the appropriate
devolution of funds, functions and functionaries as may be decided by the State Government to these
levels.

Current Status
Completed – Mohalla samiti are formed as the third tier. Provisions have been made in Municipal Acts

an objective to assign or associate elected ULBs with “city planning functions”.

Current Status
In this area, all reforms have been achieved with the transfer of powers related to the provisioning of
water supply & sewerage, public transport and solid waste management. This has been supported by
the association of ULB with city planning functions. This has been achieved by the active participation
of ULB in the preparation of city development plans.

UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Municipal Accounting, with the
objective of having a modern accounting system based on double-entry accrual principles, leading to
better financial management, transparency and self-reliance.

Current Status

1. At present, Double Entry Cash Base system of accounting is being followed in NPP.
2. Double Entry Accrual Base accounting has not been adopted in the NPP.

accrual based accounting.
5. A resolution has been passed by Government expressing commitment to establish modern
municipal accounting system.
Timeline for Reforms
With the growing thrust on adoption of double entry accrual base system of accounting in state and its
several advantages over the existing system, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should strive to shift to
the new system on the immediate basis. It should carry out all the requisites and migrate to the new
system by year 2014-15. It is also recommended that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should adhere to
timelines, provided in Exhibit 11-1, to achieve the objectives of this reform by year 2015-16.

management system, etc.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 118


Timeline for Reforms
To achieve the objectives of this reform, town would be required to bring many of its services and
procedures under the ambit of e-governance. As the first step, town should procure equipment
required for various applications by year 2011-12, which should be followed by the capacity building
exercises aimed at enabling existing staff and recruitment of new staff competent to carry out the
required duties. The city should aim to carry out registration of births & deaths, public grievance
redressal, payment of property tax and bills of other utilities, municipal accounting, and works
management system through computerization by year 2015-16. It is also recommended that

and asset maintenance and ultimately leading to self-sustaining delivery of urban services.

Current Status
At present, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad levies user charges only for Water supply. Nasrullahganj
Nagar Parishad charges Rs 2650 and Rs 3750 as connection fee for domestic and commercial new
connection respectively. The tariff structure is based on flat rate. The tariff for domestic connection is
Rs 50 per month and commercial connection is Rs. 100 per month.

Timeline for Reforms


Firstly, Nagar Parishad should establish a proper accounting system for Water Supply and should
subsequently expand this system to other services such as solid waste management, sewerage, etc.
The accounting system for water supply should be established together with the reforms related to
municipal accounting. A proper accounting system should be in place for all the municipal services by
year 2014-15. During this period, ULB should work in coordination of state government to define a
user charge structure and service standards for each of the services. These initiatives should result in
full recovery of O&M costs by year 2015-16. It is also recommended that Nasrullahganj Nagar

11.3.4. Basic Services to the Urban Poor


Desired Objective
Provision of basic services to the poor including security of tenure at affordable prices, improved
housing, water supply, sanitation and ensuring delivery of other existing universal services of the
Government for education, health and social security.

Current Status
The Nagar Parishad attempts to universalize the coverage of services such as water supply,
sanitation, solid waste management and other infrastructure facilities but has not achieved any break
through due to the location disadvantage of these areas and inadequacy of funds available. Nagar
Parishad has also been coordinating with other agencies for the universalization of services like
health and education.

Timeline for Reforms


The Nagar Parishad should attempt to increase the coverage of all services so that all urban poor
have access to a minimum level of service. This can be achieved by means of various sub projects in
a phased manner. Schemes like IHSDP should address the issue of housing and rehabilitation
whereas all new projects should consider delivery of services to the poor as a part of their primary
objective. All projects identified should give a due importance to coverage of town‟s poor population.
In addition to the new developmental works, works related to up gradation or strengthening of service
delivery mechanism should also focus on the town‟s poor population. Town should target a period 5
years to cover all urban poor with basic services.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 120


11.3.5. Internal earmarking for basic services for poor
Desired Objective
UIDSSMT requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in the provision of basic services
to the Urban Poor, with an objective of providing security of tenure at affordable prices, improved
housing, water supply and sanitation. In addition, delivery of other existing universal services of the
government for education, health and social security is to be ensured.

Current Status
State has identified all Urban Below-Poverty-Line families using financial and non-financial criteria.
While financial criterion uses monthly income as the parameter, non-financial criterion attempts to
cover social factors such as housing, water & hygiene, education, literacy, employment, etc.

Timeline for Reforms


A detailed survey to identify the needs of urban poor in the areas of infrastructure and socio-economic
upliftment should be carried out. Based on the findings of this survey and an institutional support from
the state government, Nagar Parishad should allocate certain percentage, ranging from 20 to 25 %, of
their expenditure for the urban poor. It is also recommended that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad
should adhere to timelines, provided in Exhibit 11-4, to achieve the objectives of this reform by year
2015-16.

3 Fresh enumeration based on the above Yes
4 Decision on the Funds Allocation Percentage Yes
5 Achievement of actual fund allocation budget 50% 75% 100%
11.3.6. Property Tax
Desired Objective
JNNURM requires certain reforms to be undertaken by states/ cities in Property Taxes, with the broad
objective of establishing a simple, transparent, non-discretionary and equitable property tax regime
that encourages voluntary compliance. States/cities need to ensure that their desirable objectives for
reforms include these reforms, but need not restrict themselves to these items.

Current Status
Currently, Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad levies property tax on residential, commercial properties and
its collection during the year 2010-11 was Rs. 111087. The property tax is being calculated on the
basis of Unit Area method.

Timeline for Reforms


Considering the low collection efficiency and gap between properties liable to pay property tax and
properties that actually pay, property tax reforms should be carried out on the immediate basis to
improve the municipal revenues. It is recommended that Nasrullahganj Nagar Parishad should adhere
to timelines, provided in Exhibit 11-5, to achieve the objectives of this reform by year 2015-16.

3. Adhayksch and CMO, Nasrullahganj stressed on the need of primary focus on improving overall
quality of life of the citizens in addition to the physical and social infrastructure of the town.

The presentation by IMaCS familiarized the stakeholders with the purpose, process, and expected
outcomes of the CDP study. Members were then requested for their views and suggestions in
formulating the City Development Plan with key stress on following areas:

1. Vision for the town in the next 25 years;


2. Projects to be undertaken and
3. Ward specific issues that need immediate attention.

A few sector wise suggestions that came out of the discussion are as under

Water Supply: Water being an essential and a vital need, needs a proper conservation and a
harvesting plan to provide the town with adequate water supply when required. During the time span
when water sources get fully exhausted, the city needs are fulfilled by various sources like tankers
etc.

Drainage: Existing Drainage system needs a revamping as it is totally dilapidated. Unhygienic


environment is mainly caused by open drains and sewerage getting accumulated at various junctions
in front of the households, which in turn has caused a milieu for the residents and is a potential health
hazard.

Sewerage & Sanitation: The city in general is not equipped with a Sewerage system. A sewerage
system should be developed at the earliest.

Solid Waste Management: Major concern is disposal of solid waste. New disposal sites need to be
identified and existing disposal sites should be properly maintained according to recognized norms in
practice. Best practices from other places can be used to improve the efficiency, effectiveness and
collection of solid waste collection.

Land Utilization / Development: Due importance should be paid to beautification and the provision
of Green spaces in any kind of city infrastructure.

Presentation started off with a brief introduction of the study i.e. Preparation of City Development Plan
for Nasrullahganj, so as to bring all the stakeholders on the same platform. Based on the information
collected by various sources, the representative from IMaCS presented city profile which included
demographic and socio-economic profile of the town with spatial component. Demographic profile
dealt with population growth trend and its probable reasons, it also showed the population projections
and the methods used for these projections. The stakeholders agreed on this projected population.
Socio-economic profile comprised of key socio-economic parameters, major economic base and
major potentials and main issues. During this, stakeholders stated that few steps are needed to
increase employment opportunities and improve quality of life in the town to reduce the flow of people
moving out of the town. City profiling was followed by the findings of Sector Analysis which included
Water Supply, Sewerage and Sanitation, Storm Water Drainage, Solid Waste Management,
Transportation, Health, Education and other socio-cultural facilities for short, medium and long term,
i.e. 5 years, 10 years and 25 years respectively. Analysis comprised of existing status of service level

After covering these sections, IMaCS team
turned the focus on “formulation of a vision for
Nasrullahganj.” This part of the presentation
included definition of vision, major concerns that
need to be addressed while developing a vision
and important aspects that define Nasrullahganj.
It was then followed by few sample Vision
Statements from IMaCS team. Formulation of
City vision and Sectoral goals were
supplemented by a Questionnaire survey.

Questionnaire with the aim of obtaining


stakeholders‟ priorities for the city. The
Questionnaire survey was distributed in Hindi Second Workshop
language. Questionnaire survey included stakeholders‟ view of problems in the various sectors,
evaluation of city‟s growth and infrastructure and ranking of major issues and problems of the town,
as perceived by stakeholders.

Further, the stakeholders discussed the Sectoral strategies and vision in detail and share their
concerns and apprehensions on how should the city move forward towards a developmental path.
Amongst the major concerns is-„insufficient water supply‟ to the entire town, and hence there is a dire
need for augmentation of the system for which few potential sources were suggested by the
stakeholders. Further, they highlighted the need of employment opportunities – „in the region‟ , the
lack of which leads to the youths moving out to other cities. One of the important suggestions which
came up during consultations was - Since Nasrullahganj has a strong agricultural base and has a
regional crop market (Mandi), there is a scope for a few small scale agro based industries e.g. Soya
bean plants and Daal mills which can be thought upon to be established in the town. Stakeholders
also had concerns regarding the transportation and traffic aspects in the town. During the discussion,
it also came up that since a substantial percentage of population resides in slums in the town and
there should be a focused strategy to improve the quality of life of all the slum dwellers by providing
basic infrastructure to all of them. The stakeholders also had concerns on non-availability of parks,
playgrounds, community halls and not properly maintained ponds and it was suggested by them that
pond needs to be conserved with pond front development and thus creating a parks and other
recreational infrastructure near them. The Stakeholders also appreciated IMaCS‟ strategies and
sector goals in various infrastructure sectors and helped prioritizing the needs and the actions
required for the development of the town.

SPECIAL PAPER: POTENTIALS OF AGRO BASE
INFRASTRUCTURE UP GRADATION IN NASARULLAHGANJ

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 164


Potential for agro based industries in Nasarullahganj
Introduction
In the state of Madhya Pradesh during the decade of fifties and sixties, in most of the villages had
agricultural markets in very simple form. Buying and selling of agricultural produce was a very
common practice within the villages. There were periodical markets known as „Haat‟ or „Bazaar‟ in
local language in several villages of Sehore District. These markets assembled once in a week or bi-
weekly, where transfer of small agricultural surplus from vegetables to grains took place between
consumers and producers. Prior to independence, the agricultural marketing which is one of the
biggest components of rural economy remained unorganized. The actual transformation of agricultural
market in India took place only towards the end of seventies. The lack of institutional support in
providing forward and backward linkages have been identified as major setback in promotion of rural
markets. The government of Madhya Pradesh started its efforts to regulate the unorganized rural
markets. This action was taken in order to secure a remunerative price for the produce that a farmer
takes to the market. It became necessary to regularize the working of market and to put an end to the
malpractices. It was sought to be achieved under agriculture produce market act (1937) which was
enforced by number of state government.

Agriculture Sector in Madhya Pradesh


Madhya Pradesh is the second largest state in India with an area of about 308 Lakh Ha. Total land
under cultivation is around 150 Lakh Ha which is about 49% of the net area. Around 31% of the state
is under forest cover with a largely unexploited species of rare, valuable medicinal - herbal plants.
Agriculture is predominant in the state with approximately 75% of rural population largely dependent
on it. Agriculture sector forms almost one-third of the Gross State Domestic Product and hence, is the
backbone of MP‟s economy. Being majorly an agrarian economy, the presence of industrial centers
specifically based on agro processing like SEZ, AEZ or Food Parks, act as an advantage to the
growth of agriculture economy in the state.

The state has 5 crop zones, 11 agro climatic regions and 4 soil types, which add to its biodiversity and
acts favorable for the production of various crop types. The state has 4 different soil types available
in four distinct parts. The western and central regions are covered by medium and deep soils
constituting 53% of the soil area. The eastern part of the state is primarily covered by black soils
which comprises of 25-26% of the total geographical area. The remaining portion is covered by black
soil in northern part of the state, shallow and medium black soil in the southern part of the state. Area
under cultivation in Madhya Pradesh is detailed in the table below:

S.No Item Area (million hac)


1 Net Area 15.070
2 Double Cropped Area 5.349
Total Cropped Area 20.419
A Area under Kharif 10.936
B Area under Rabi 9.483
Gross Irrigated Area 5.828 (28.5%)
Cropping Intensity 135%

Agriculture in Sehore District
In Madhya Pradesh regulated markets came into existence in rural areas in shape of Krishi Upaj
Mandis, i.e. crop market centers. In Sehore district the first crop market center was established in
Ashta block in 1962. Presently, there are six crop market centers Ashta, Sehore, Nasrullahganj,
Shyampur, Ichhawar, and Rehti. Besides these regulated markets crop market center there are
number of retail market centers these are Ashta, Sehore, Nasrullahganj, Shyampur, Ichhawar, Rehti,
Siddiquiganj, Bilquisganj, Doraha, Ahemadpur, Dobi, Shahganj and Baktara in all five blocks of
Sehore District. All these market centers provide the service weekly or bi-weekly. Weekly markets in
all blocks are the main channels of distribution of local agricultural produce and consumers goods
brought from the urban area. Fairs are also a form of periodical markets which are held once or twice
a year and serve a wider area. These fairs are inevitable part of religious life in rural areas of district.
In Sehore District fairs seemed to be more traditional. Their initial growth in form of social gatherings
at the time of religious festivals or at some holy place, later on exchange of commodities and trade in
smaller quantity have been started in order to fulfill the needs of the people of the limited area. In
Sehore District these fairs are mainly organized by gram panchayats and state animal husbandry
department. These fairs are mainly held in Ashta, Sehore, Nasrullahganj, Ichhawar, Baktara and
Rehti. Among five blocks the highest numbers of fairs are held in Nasrullahganj block. Selling of
agricultural products along with the FMCG products is a very common practice in the district.

Agro/ Food Processing Opportunities in Sehore district


The soil profile of the Sehore district is rich for the cultivation of cereals, pulses, vegetables, fruits,
species such as maize, wheat- sharbati, Wheat- durum, soyabean, gram, paddy, potatoes, onions,
green peas, tomatoes, cauliflower, chillies, ginger, garlic, coriander, turmeric, mango, orange etc.
Hence this potential should be explored by setting up agro base industries in the district. This can be
done by creating new farm avenues in the district via backward linkages. List of products which can
be manufactured by setting agro based industry in Nasarullahganj is given below

Recommendations/ Suggestions
 Expansion of Area under crop production & Fruit Production: The government at district levels
should take steps in augmenting land and resources used for crop and fruit production.

City Development Plan- Nasrullahganj 167


 Establishing new garden areas: The government should harness its species resource by
bringing more and more land under garden areas used for growing species.

 Rejuvenation/ Replacement of Senile gardens: There are large plantations under Mango and
Orange which are developed with seedlings and their yields are very poor. Hence it is
proposed to replant existing gardens in phased manner with high quality grafts / buildings or
by top working and canopy management of plantations with heavy manuring for productive
yields.

 Organic Farming: It is proposed to encourage organic cultivation of Mango, Orange, Chilly,


Garlic and Coriander by adopting relevant package of practices and assisting in setting up of
vermi compost units.

 Encouraging more and more computerized activities such as e-choupal for facilitating the
farmers and discouraging arhatiyas.

 Shift from supply driven to demand driven approach is very necessary

 The government should iincrease affordability of food products by reducing costs through
rationalization of tax regime and increasing supply chain efficiency

 Enhance financing to the agriculture and food processing sector in a comprehensive manner
given the intrinsic linkages of the two sectors

 Improve food standards and safety systems through science-based setting of standards and
strengthening of food testing network

 Strengthen institutional framework to develop manpower and R & D capabilities to address


global challenges

 Increase competitiveness of the small and medium enterprises by facilitating their access to
best practices, technology, capital and marketing opportunities

 Effective market development and awareness campaign to enhance the image of Indian food
products, particularly overseas

 Foster public-private partnerships for infrastructure creation and technology up gradation

 Replicate successful Indian and international business models including cooperative models,
in production, processing and marketing of food products.
