be in a place to monitor it. This has been a crucial issue in sanitation which has hampered the growth
in terms of sanitation and also has pushed the cities to look unhygienic by redundant services.
Therefore, having a sound institutional arrangement would enable the infrastructure to be used in a
proposed manner to its fullest capacity.
Many a times the institutional arrangements cannot be confined with one agency in an urban local
body as the activities come under multiple agencies which would make it more cumbersome. This
issue of multiple agencies handling the same issues can be resolved only with a good number of
convergent meetings and responsibilities to deliver are to be guided by the state government. Each
agency handling its own thing is also important but in turn they should also have co-ordination to
make sure that the duties do not limit themselves to their circles but the duties should enable the
city to look more hygienic in terms of living conditions. For Example: Slums although directly come
under DUDA, the Nagar Nigam also has greater responsibility in making sure that the slum receives
all the urban basic services required. In this type of situation, a combined effort from DUDA and
Nagar Nigam would make better living for the slum dwellers rather each agency handling the
situation in its own way. In the same way the Nagar Nigam has the responsibility of constructing
community toilets in the slums, this can happen in the best manner only if both the agencies come
together.
