TRENDS IN URBANISATION

Urbanisation is a process of switch from spread out patterns of human settlements to one of concentration in urban centers. It is a finite process ... a cycle through which nations pass as they evolve from agrarian to industrial society

“

3.1 INTRODUCTIONUrbanisation is an increase in population and economic activities in the urban areas which

leads to further development of towns and agglomerates to contain this rising population.

It is a cause and effect of heightened economic progress in a region. Though migration is the

key factor, other aspects such as the demand for economic employment, better educational

opportunities, health facilities and higher standard of living act as major propellants contributing

to the upward trend in urbanisation.

As per 2011 figures, the state has a total population of 72,597,565 persons of which the urban

population comprises of 20,059,666 persons accounting for an urban population of 27.6

percent which is an increase from the urban population of 26.5 percent reported in 2001.

The number of towns in the state have increased from 394 in 2001 to 476 in 2011. A look at

the decennial status of towns, from 1901-2011, reveals that the number of towns in Madhya

Pradesh have grown more rapidly in comparison to the national average figures.

The upward trend in urbanisation is evident from the fact that now there are 33 towns where

more than 100,000 population resides and this includes four major cities of Indore, Bhopal,

Jabalpur and Gwalior which houses a million plus population. Though urbanisation acts

as a catalyst in economic development it can prove to be a deterrent as well since such an

overwhelming population inflow tends to create added pressure on the existing urban public

services. This is a major concern which is being taken up and addressed by policy makers and

planners in various forums.

3.2 TOWN STATUS IN INDIA AND MADHYA PRADESHAs shown in Statement 3.1, during the period 1901 to 2011, the number of towns has grown

from 1827 to 7935 at the national level and from 105 to 476 for the state of Madhya Pradesh.

Hence, the growth rate of towns at the state level which stands at approximately 353 percent

is higher than that recorded at the national level of 334 percent.

3.3 URBAN AGGLOMERATION AND OUT GROWTH IN MADHYA PRADESH (U.A. AND O.G.)An urban agglomeration (UAs) is a continuous urban spread constituting a town and its

adjoining urban outgrowths (OGs), or two or more physically contiguous towns together with

or without outgrowths of such towns. In some cases railway colonies, university campuses,

port areas, etc., may come up near a city or statutory town outside its statutory limits but

within the revenue limits of a village or villages contiguous to the town or city. Each such

individual area by itself may not satisfy the minimum population limit to qualify it to be treated

as an independent urban unit but may deserve to be clubbed with the town as a continuous

urban spread and is also termed as the outgrowths (OGs).

For the purpose of delineation of urban agglomerations during Census of India 2011, following

criteria are taken as pre- requisites:

(a) The core town or at least one of the constituent towns of an urban agglomeration

should necessarily be a statutory town; and

(b) The total population of all the constituents (i.e., towns and outgrowths) of an urban

agglomeration should not be less than 20,000 (as per the Census 2001 ). With these

two basic criteria having been met, the following are the possible different situations in

which urban agglomeration would be consituted:

(i) A city or town with one or more contiguous outgrowths;

(ii) Two or more adjoining towns with their outgrowths; and

(iii) A city and one or more adjoining towns with their outgrowths all of which

form a continuous spread.

The status of urban agglomerations and out-growths in the state, for 2001 and 2011 is outlined

in Statement 3.2. It is seen that both the urban agglomerations and out-growths have decreased

from 2001 to 2011, however the decrease is higher for the out-growths.
