SUMMARY:Urban Planning & Governance – Beyond the 74th Amendment
DESCRIPTION:SWARAJ for Cities is a nationwide initiative to help shape ‘Self Governance of Cities’. It is a year-long series of webinars, hybrid conferences, and publications that will focus on the Urban Challenge that India faces, that of Planned and Orderly Growth, and better governance of our cities, towns and peri-urban areas; that is, the fulfilment of the promise of the 74th Amendment of our Constitution.\nIndia’s urban landscape is plagued by rapid unplanned growth; coupled with poor governance, this is leading to challenges such as overcrowding, mismanagement, poor infrastructure, civic apathy, congestion, pollution, degrading environment and climate change impact, among others, making our urban spaces unliveable. This is amplified by the dereliction of State Govts in abiding by the 74th amendment, and not instituting a Planning Authority or a devolved and unified City Govt.\nAs a curtain-raiser to the series, this Webinar will hold a discussion on the present state of Urban Planning and Governance in Indian cities, and the broad outlines of how to drive the agenda to improve them. The panel will discuss issues such as legislation, state level adoption, the problems of peri-urban areas, and how to build public and political demand for these reforms.\nThe webinar will also include the release of the first Position Paper on State of Urban Governance in India: “Urban Democratic Decentralisation; tamed, listless and in spiralling decline.” – by Dr T R Raghunandan.\nA short introduction on the position paper by its author will be followed by a Panel Discussion on the state of Urban Governance in India with the theme: “Beyond the 74th Amendment”. The panellists are from backgrounds in Bureaucracy, Urban Planning and Academia, which will bring together diverse perspectives.\n
