Projected growth in Indian populationCivic Amenities defined
Examples include :• Adequate and clean drinking water• Piped water coverage• Good infrastructure• Sewage treatment• Management of solid waste• Satisfied transportation
Source :Census of india
Do the urban areas have the capacity of holding such population? Do they have ample civic amenities?
Major cities population: • NEW DELHI (capital) 21.72 million; • Mumbai 19.695 million;• Kolkata 15.294 million; • Chennai 7.416 million;
Migration of people from rural areas to metro areas will densify the metro cities
According to the report on 'India's Urban Awakening' by McKinsey Global Institute, in the next 20 years, India will have 68 cities with a population over one million – up from 42 today. That is nearly twice as many cities as all of Europe.
INDIA’S URBAN AWAKENING
Source :Census of india
Problems Causes Reasons
Poor and inadequate drinking water
Discharge of industrial wastes and sewage into clean water bodies.
Lack of proper disposal sites for industries and household sewage.
Sewage nearly three core people in urban areas defecate in open
less than two-third of the urban households were connected to sewer system.
Transport • Heavy traffic due to dominating private transport
• on-street loading/unloading activities
• inadequate parking facilities and parking on the streets
• People are using private transport because out of 85 cities with population of 0.5 million or more, only 20 cities have a city bus service.
• inadequate signaling/other traffic management measures
• poorly designed intersections

Comparison with existing government plans
THE HEAD MEMBERS WILL FOCUS ON THE NEW STRATEGIES TO DEVELOP TIER 2 CITIES AS MAGNETS FOR ALLIED INVESTMENTS IN DEVELOPMENT BASIC CIVIC AMENITIES IN URBAN AREAS AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE
STRATEGIES MADE.
• Mission
emphasizes transparency and
accountability.
The funds are channeled through head members t
where grants from the central and state
governments are pooled and passed on as grants
or soft loans to cities provided that they have prepared development
strategies
• The share of grant funded by the central government may vary depending on the
various cities.
It supports public-private
partnerships and cost recovery to
make service providers
financially self-sustaining
GOALS
• Providing the entire urban population including those in slums with access to piped water supply.
• Providing underground sewerage and drainage to cities
• Urban transport
EFFORTS
• A systematic approach for identification and reduction of leakage and preventive maintenance
• Focus towards better sewage and septagemanagement
• Better planning for traffic management and providing bus facilities.
REALISATION
• Improving transparency through "Public Disclosure Law"
• Engaging communities in water management through community participation law .
• The response will be shared on the social media and the feedback will be taken.
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE STRUCTURE
Leveraging existing Government Policies
With the collaboration of government policies with our solution, the government policies could be leveraged because :
No political party is individually involved in our proposal
A special unit is their to monitor the progress of the policies.
Transparency is there between the public and the initiative team.
This will increase the rate of employability
This will be extremely beneficial as their
would be no additional funding
required.

The funds could be rearranged for the implementation.
THE ORGANIZATIONAL SETUP WILL REQUIRE A FUNDS OF ABOUT INR 6 CRORE FROM THE GOVERNMENT AND CORPORATE BODIES.
IMPACT OF THE PROPOSAL
Emergence of Tier 2 cities as “Future Cities” in India.
People migrating to metro cities will move on to the new developed future cities and hence the burden on Tier 1 cities
will decrease.
Sample size not definite, source of data throughgovernment reports.
Development of future cities may lead to overpopulation of these cities.
• Government may provide only limited funds andgrants.
• Completing the projects within the proposed timeperiod.
Risks
Challenges
Mitigation
• Special units will monitor the survey dataand ensure it confirms to the strategies.
• Financial help from Corporates, NGO’s.
• Seeking help from EPC’s(Engineering, procurement and construction) and BOT (Build- Operate-Transfer).
