The 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act (73rd CAA) came in effect from 24th April,

AspertheIIPAReport,theStatesarereluctanttoexpeditefollowupwithregardto
implementationoftheconstitutionalprovisionsandmostofthemarelaggingbehind
in the preparation of Metropolitan Development Plan. Some of the reasons for not
operationalizingtheprovisionsoftheConstitutionalAmendmentActmaybe:
ThepreparationofMetropolitanDevelopmentPlanisaprofessionallyledspatial
exercise and is not mere consolidation of the sectoral plans. The MPCs lack
adequate/requisiteprofessionalcapacitiestoprepareit.
Lack of technical expertise in the Metropolitan Planning Committee or lack of
directions/guidanceforconstitutingthesame.
Prior to preparing a Metropolitan Development Plan (MDP), it is imperative to
delineate the metropolitan region based on certain criteria. Barring a few
megacitieslikeKolkata,Mumbai,Chennai,HyderabadandBengaluru,noneofthe
othermetropolitancitieshavedelineatedtheirrespectivemetropolitanregions.
For preparing Metropolitan Development Plan, a multi disciplinary team
comprising of Town & Country Planners as an urban planner and/or regional
planner,environmentalplanner,transportplannersandinfrastructureplanneras

Lack of will among the State Governments to take action for delineating the
metropolitanareaaswellaspreparingtheplanforthesame.

URDPFIGuidelines,2014.VolumeIIA.MinistryofUrbanDevelopment

Implicationsof73rd&74thCAA,1993

Lack of incentives/initiatives for taking appropriate action for preparation of


Metropolitan Development Plan which may not be the priority for some of the
StateGovernments.

Itisapparentthatmanystatesareyettointegrate74thCAAintermsofconstituting

The Right to Fair Compensation and


Transparency
in
Land
Acquisition
Rehabilitation&ResettlementAct,2013

2.1. BasisofthenewAct
The Land Acquisition Act of 1894 was created with the purpose of facilitating
acquisition of privately held land by the government for public purposes. Land
Acquisition plainly means the acquisition of land for some public purpose by a
government agency from individual landowners, as authorised by the law, after
paying a governmentfixed compensation to cover losses incurred by landowners
fromsurrenderingtheirlandtotheconcernedgovernmentagency.
Over a period of time numerous issues were highlighted in the 1894 Act, such as;
cumbersome and costly procedure delaying the land acquisition, determination of
public purpose contestable at law, property valuation techniques were flawed
resulting in a heavy strain on public finances and restrictions on the scale of
development and redevelopment project. It was also argued that land was acquired
fornumberofprojectswithnopublicpurposeattached,asinthecaseofSEZs,atwell
belowthemarketvalueoftheproperties.Additionally,relocationandrehabilitation
oflandownersdisplacedbytheactionsoftheAct,wasnotcoveredcomprehensively
andadequately.
It is for these and other reasons that government proposed to replace the said Act
with a New Act The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land
Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 (effective from 1stJanuary
2014).
ThisLawwasproposedduetothefollowingbasicreasons:
PublicconcernonlandacquisitionissuesandabsenceofNationallawtoprovide
for the Rehabilitation and Resettlement (R&R) and compensation forloss of
livelihoods.
MultipleamendmentsweremadetotheoriginalAct,butprincipallawcontinued
tobethesamei.e.theLandAcquisitionAct,1894whichwasanoutdatedLaw.
Need for balance was felt for addressing concerns of farmers and those whose
livelihoodsweredependentonthelandbeingacquiredaswellasfacilitatingland

allows the land owners to develop the sites reserved for an amenity in the
development plan using full permissible FSI/FAR on the plot subject by
agreeing to entrust and hand over the built up area of such amenity to the

Accrual Based Double Entry Accounting System: Currently double entry
accounting system is followed by most of the Municipalities in the country.
However, as per the mandate of the JnNURM, accrual based accounting system

Goa, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Nagaland, Orissa, Punjab,
Rajasthan,TripuraandUttarPradesh.
Town and Country Planning Organisation (TCPO) with the direction from MoUD

Town Planning or Development scheme is an important tool to develop land; every
StatehasmadeprovisiontodevelopPlanning/DevelopmentScheme.Landacquisition
is an important aspect for implementation of plans. States empowers Planning
Authorities through T&CP Acts to acquire land, however mechanism for land
acquisition vary amongst States. In every State, land acquisition is mentioned to be
either as per Land Acquisition Act, 1894 or through agreement with the owner.
Maharashtra and Bihar have additional mechanism i.e. Town Planning Schemes and
TransferofDevelopmentRighttoacquirelandfordevelopmentpurposes.

5.1. Maharashtra
InMaharashtra,TownPlanningisastatutoryfunctionofalltheMunicipalAuthorities
even before the Constitution (74th) Amendment Act. In view of this, no separate
provisionwasconsiderednecessarybytheStateGovernmenttoamendthe1966Act.
ThisAct,amendedupto5thAugust1992wasconsideredacomprehensiveAct.The
Act provided that the Development Plan prepared by Planning Authority shall
indicatethemanneroflanduse,allocationoflandforvariouspurposes,andprescribe
the time period for steps in the plan preparation process with extended time if
required.
The Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning (MRTP) Act has given emphasis on
Regional Planning. It enables State Government to constitute Regional Planning
Boards to prepare Regional Plans. The Act, however, does not have any provision to
constitute MPC or DPC, thus it is not entirely compliant with 74th CAA. It is, Bombay
Metropolitan Region Development Authority Act which makes it mandatory to
constitute MPC and elaborated the procedure to be followed by MPC in order to
prepareDevelopmentPlansforMetropolitanArea.
The Special Planning Authority to be constituted by the States for certain Notified
Areas. The Special Planning Authorities will have all the powers of a Planning
AuthoritytoacquirelandforspecialpurposeinNotifiedAreas.InMaharashtra,there

Forimplementationoftheplan,compulsoryacquisitionoflandisregardedasapre
requisiteundertheLandAcquisitionAct,1984.Inviewoftheexorbitantmarketrates
of land to be paid for compensation, opposition to compulsory land acquisition by
land owners, etcetera has compelled the authorities to explore collaborative
approaches within the existing legal framework. As a result, the alternatives to
compulsory land acquisition in the form of Transferable Development Rights (TDR)
andAccommodationReservationhavebeenexploredinMaharashtra.

AppendixAMakingoftheGuidelines
BackgroundandObjective

The first National level planning guidelines The Urban Development Plans Formulations and
Implementation Guidelines (UDPFI) were framed in 1996. Since then, many changes have taken
place in the field of urban development especially in view of emerging needs and requirements of
urban settlements due to rapid population growth and other reasons like globalization and
liberalization. The towns and cities have been more dynamic in nature and are subject to
unprecedented changes in terms of requirements of infrastructure and other basic services/
amenities. Besides, new emerging aspects like inclusive planning, sustainable habitat, land use and
transport integration at planning stage, preparation of Comprehensive Mobility Plans (CMP) for
urban transport, Service Level Benchmarks, disaster management, environmentally sustainable
transport and urban reforms have given a new dimension to the planning process. Therefore, it
necessitatedtorevisittheUDPFIGuidelines,1996.
The Ministry of Urban Development (MoUD), through the standard tendering procedures, awarded
thetasktorevisetheguidelinestoMottMacDonald(referredtoasConsultant)inAugust2013.The

Secondary Data Review: The secondary data of various Ministries, Departments, Institutions and
Professional Bodies uploaded on websites such as of Planning Commission; Ministry of Urban
Development; Ministry of Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation; Ministry of Environment and
Forests;DepartmentofLandResources,MinistryofRuralDevelopment,etc.andvariousCityMaster/
Development Plans were identified for review and analysis. Some of the important references
includedReportoftheWorkingGrouponUrbanStrategicPlanning,TwelfthFiveYearPlan,Public
Private Partnership Toolkit of ADB and MoUD, JNNURM CDP Toolkit, The Land Acquisition,
Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, Handbook on Service Level Benchmarking, National
Urban Sanitation Policy, NDMA Guidelines for Disaster Management, State Town and Country
Planning Acts of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Himachal Pradesh, Mizoram, Bihar, Maharashtra and
Gujarat,TheKeralaTownandCountryPlanningOrdinance,2013etc.
Based on the secondary data review, analysis and consultations; the gaps in the UDPFI guidelines,
1996 were identified. As an output of analysis, the recommendations for formulation of URDPFI
guidelineswerelisted.ThegapsandupdationswerefinalisedincloseconsultationwiththeTCGand

Introduction

Public Private Partnership (PPP) is infusion of private capital and management in provision of

Existingscenario

Reforms of 1990 brought/started economic liberalisation in India. The role of government


underwent transformation from provider to facilitator as a result. Initially it was in the form of
privatisationbutafterfollowinginternationalexperiencesPPPwasintroducedinIndia.Thetendency
of the private sector to undervalue social infrastructure, and the large sunk costs associated with
providing much economic infrastructure, has been obstacle to privatization. Thus PPPs began to
emerge significantly as a means of obtaining private sector capital and management expertise for
infrastructure investment (both to carry on where privatization had left off and as an alternative
wheretherehadbeenobstaclestoprivatization).
IthasemergedasoneoftheleadingPPPmarketsintheworld,duetoseveralpolicyandinstitutional
initiativestakenbythecentralaswellasmanystategovernments.Overtheyearsanelaborateeco
system for PPPs has developed, including institutions, developers, financiers, equity providers,
policiesandprocedures2.
The growing role of PPP in India has led for the requirement of national policy. As a result

Affine Transformation: A geometric transformation that scales, rotates, skews, and/or translates images or coordinates
between any two Euclidean spaces. It is commonly used in GIS to transform maps between coordinate systems. In an
affine transformation, parallel lines remain parallel, the midpoint of a line segment remains a midpoint, and all points on a

TripGeneration

The first step in travel forecasting is trip generation. In this step, information from land use,
population, and economicforecasts areusedto estimate howmany trips will be madeto andfrom
eachzone.

TripDistribution

The trip distribution model estimates number of trips travelled from one zone to another. Trip
generationonlyfindsthenumberoftripsthatbeginorendat aparticularzone.Theprocessoftrip
distribution links the trip ends to form an origindestination pattern. Trip distribution is used to
representtheprocessofdestinationchoice(i.e."Ineedtogoshopping,butwhereshouldIgotomeet
myshoppingneeds?").
The most commonly used procedure for trip distribution is called the gravity model. The gravity
modeltakesthetripsproducedatonezoneanddistributestootherzonesbasedonboththesizeof
theotherzones(asmeasuredbytheirtripattractions)andthecompositecost(traveltime,distance
or cost for all modes available) to other zones. A zone with many trip attractions (say, a large

Where,
Pi=theprobabilityofatravellerchoosingmodei,
ui = a linear function of the attributes of mode i that describe its attractiveness, also known as the
utilityofmodei,and

Theutilityfunctioniscalculatedbasedonthefollowingequation:

Where,

bi=coefficientfortheIVTTvariablesofmode
ci=asetofcoefficientsforOVTTvariablesofmodei,and
di=coefficientforCOSTvariableofmodei
KeyPointsaboutModeSplit
Mode split is done by a comparison of the "disutility" of travel between two points for the
differentmodesthatareavailable.
"Disutility"isatermusedtorepresentacombinationofthetraveltime,cost,andconvenienceof
amodebetweenanoriginandadestination.
Travel time is divided into two components: invehicle time to represent the time when a
travellerisactuallyinavehicleandmoving,andoutofvehicletime,whichincludestimespent
travellingoutsideofthevehicle(timetowalktoandfrombus/railstops,waitingtime,transfer
time).
Outofvehicle time is used to represent "inconvenience" and the coefficient for outofvehicle
timeistypicallyseveraltimeslargerthanforinvehicletime,reflectingthefactthattravellersdo
not like to wait or walk long distances to their destinations. The size of the multiplier will be
differentdependinguponthepurposeofthetrip.
Forpublictransporttrips,thecostofthetripisusuallymeasuredastheaveragepublictransport
fareforthattrip,whileforprivatevehicletrips,costisfoundbyaddingtheparkingcosttothe
length of the trip and multiplying by cost per kilometer. Private vehicle cost is based on a
"perceived"costperkilometer(ontheorderof510cents/kilometer),whichonlyincludesfuel
andoilcostsanddoesnotincludeownership,insurance,maintenance,andotherfixedcosts(total
costsofprivatevehicletravelaremuchhigher).
Disutility equations also contain a "modal constant", represents other characteristics or travel

inthestepcalledtrafficassignment.Trafficassignmentisconducteddifferentlyforhighwaytripsand
publictransporttrips.
The process first involves the calculation of the shortest path from each origin to all destinations
(usuallytheminimumtimepathisused).TripsforeachODpairarethenassignedtothelinksinthe

tothecapacityofthelinktoseewhetheritiscongested.If alinkiscongested,thespeedonthelink

changed, the shortest path may change. Hence, the whole process must be repeated many times

accuracy of the models is to look at the resulting speeds on the network. These should be realistic
afterequilibrium.
Publictransporttripassignmentisdoneinasimilarway,exceptthatpublictransportheadwaysare
adjusted rather thantravel times. Public transport headways (minutes betweenvehicles) affect the

equilibriumbetweensupplyanddemand.
It is important to understand the concept of equilibrium. If a highway or public transport route is
congested during peak hours, its excess trips will be shifted to alternative routes. If the alternative
routesarealsocongested,thefinalresultswillshowcongestionoverawidepartofthenetwork.In

ModelForecasts

Forecasting is the process of using a fully calibrated and validated model to estimate future year
trafficvolumesandpublictransportridership.
InputsforForecasts
Socioeconomicdata,suchaspopulation,incomeclass,andemploymentforecasts;
Listofapprovedhighwayandpublictransportprojectsandalistofprojectstobeevaluated.
Transportation forecasting processes should consider a broad range of alternatives. There can be
alternative modes of transportation, alternative locations of different systems, alternative levels of
capacity,oralternativepolicies.Thiswouldincludethefollowing:
A nobuild alternative: This is basically the status quo with continuing maintenance and
operationofthecurrenttransportationsystem.Itmayincludesubstantialeffortstoimprove
theefficiencyandutilizationofexistingtransportationsystems.Theseareconsideredasan
alternative to building new systems. Developing a nobuild alternative is a must for
evaluating other alternatives. Every new investment alternative has to be compared to the
nobuildalternativetoseeiftheimprovementjustifiesthecost.
Travel demand management policies: Transportation services require a broad range of
policiestofunction.Traveldemandmanagementinvolveseffortstomakethecurrentsystem
more efficient and to use techniques to reduce demand during critical periods. This is not
unlike programs that utility companies have used to promote energy conservation among
their customers. Some of the techniques that could be used include: use of priority
techniques for high occupancy vehicles, parking regulation, efforts to shift when travel
occurs,promotionoftelecommuting,publictransportserviceimprovements,useofpricing
techniques,etc.
Landusealternatives:Differentlandusepatternsandpoliciescanbeusedtoaffecttravel
demandandtoaffecttheuseofnaturalresources.Thesecould includeconcentratedurban
developmentpatterns,increasedsuburbangrowth,orsomecombination.
Modal alternatives: Different modes of transportation such as highway, public transport,
ridesharing,freight,etc.shouldbeconsidered.Generally,transportationplansareconcerned
withpickingthebestcombinationofmodestodealwithaparticularproblem.Singlemode
plans such as a highway plan, public transport plan, etc. should not be done without first
considering other modes. All options should be considered in order to develop a balanced
transportationsystem.
Capacitychanges:Thecapacityofeachmode(numberoflanes,howoftenpublictransport
vehiclesoperate)canbevariedindifferentalternatives.Highwaycapacitydependsonmany
factors besides the number of lanes, such as intersection characteristics, traffic signal
systems,andthecharacteristicsofaccessalongthehighway.
Alternative locations: Proper location of public transport and highway facilities is an
important part of their success. Facilities should be located to serve travel markets and to

Case:VelloreMunicipality,20005

A zero waste management (ZWM) project in Tamil Nadus Vellore district is an example of a
successful Solid Waste Management programme and its benefits. ZWM is a technique of handling
solidwastesthatattemptstorecover,recycleandreusemaximumwaste.

Minimizespollution:groundwater,landandairpollutioncreatedatlandfillsitesisavoidedby
doingawaywithdisposalofwastesatdumpsitesandlandfills.
In Vellore Municipality, citizens were informed about the concept of ZWM and taught how to
segregate waste at the household or respective source. Red and green dust bins were provided to
each household unit for initiating waste segregation. Teams with two street beautifiers each, were
formed.Eachteamwasassigned300householdsandprovidedatricycleandasetofhandtools.The

The street beautifiers collect domestic garbage in their allocated zones. The waste collected in the
