CITY SANITATION PLAN - Ministry of Urban Development

CITY SANITATION PLAN BAREILLY
In order to implement the good urban governance agenda, the United Nations HABITAT has proposed
that good urban governance is characterized by the following principles:
Sustainability
Subsidiary
Equity
Efficiency
Transparency and accountability
Civic engagement and citizenship and
Security
Based on the above, several nations have drawn up action plans for good urban governance in their
respective contexts. It is in this broad world view, taking into specific cognizance the peculiarities of
urbanization and urban local administration in India, for the better health of Government it is important
to have good coordination and self responsibility of the government organizations from central to local
level and also proper coordination with local NGO’s, private organizations and community participation.
Thus, based on the same – the recommendations/ proposals also focus on the capacity building of public
and private organizations at different levels. But, it is also important to consider the legal background of
different organizations and their functions and jurisdictions before proposing the strategies for
improvements.
Urban Areas are the engines of economic growth. The quality of civic infrastructure and civic services
has a critical bearing on economic development of the city and State as a whole. The 74th amendment
to the constitution devolved the role of management and development of the city to the elected
representatives of the city through the city’s Urban Local Body (ULBs). Hence the ULBs are both the
custodians of civil infrastructure and providers of civic services. Thus, ULBs are catalysts of economic
growth of a city. However, the management of a city like Bareilly is a complex task and several
institutions are involved in it, as given below.
