property boundaries which may belong to

Land encroachment is a very
common phenomenon in both rural
and urban areas. But the problems
due to encroachment are more
apparent and acute in urban areas
where the rising population and
decreasing natural resources like
water, land and clean air, are posing
challenges to sustainable urban
development.

Our ‘Smart cities’ of future
desperately need all these
resources, but first of all the land
to build a smart urban
infrastructure. In urban areas the
rampant land encroachment has
led to unplanned growth and
unstopped environmental
degradation.

Solutions adopted by different various cities in India that were suffering from encroachment
In Ahmedabad the municipal law in Gujarat prohibits the hawking of goods without a license.
The Municipal Corporation is also empowered to remove any encroachments and obstruction
made on the streets. The Bombay Police Act 1950 empowers the police to arrest hawkers for
obstructing free flow of traffic under sections 102 and 107. A natural market is a place where
vending activities take place, due to the profitable locational aspect. There are 142 Natural
markets in Ahmedabad.
Ahmedabad
No regulation of licensing, last licensing was done in 1992 for about 500 vendors.
10 wards were being appointed to cater different zones of Vadodara.
Hawking and Non-Hawking Zones are defined by each ward.
Vadodara
Bangalore
Hawking can be carried on only in the hawking zones between 8 A.M. and 8 P.M.
Hawkers are not permitted to sell their goods at busy circle intersections.
The license may be renewed at the decision of the commissioner.

numbers of motor vehicles in small
geographic areas.
