Kharagpur is the biggest town in the West Medinipur district covering an area of about 3000 sqkm. It is mainly a railway township surrounded by the fringe of urban settlement of a separate municipal govt with rural characteristics at places.

1961 .Currently the no. of wards have increased to 35, of which Talbagicha is ward no.: 33 Kharagpur has tremendous scope of development due to the presence of the IIT campus, its proximity to Kolkata and also because it is well-connected with the rest of the nation by rail. With surging growth in population, there is an urgent need to provide employment generation in this area along with efficient governance to achieve economic growth. This presentation analyses the demographics and socio-economic characteristics of ward no.33 and tries to provide a fact base and suggestions that will contribute to decision making for future policy issues.

Share of 0-6 age group is 8% of total population Total number of children in ward no. 33 is 657

: 1.09 males/female : 1.06 males/female :1.11 males/females

Percentage of male children is 53%.

The child sex ratio of ward no.33 is 1.11 males / female which is even higher than national average of 1.09 males / female.

Suggestions:
There is a need for specialized mother- child care centers in this area. Since there is 8% population of children in this ward, tot lots / secured play areas and parks are required for their physical and mental development.
SOURCES: Kharagpur Municipality Primary survey by MCP Team

Below Poverty Level Population Observations:

The working population are mostly marginal workers such as rickshaw pullers , construction labours etc depending on daily wages. This population occupies kutcha or semi pucca houses.

Suggestions: The women of this section could be employed in home based small scale industry such as papad making etc. or they can be imparted some vocational training such as handicraft, idol making industry etc. to help them achieve economic independence.

ETHNICITY:

Observation:

Hinduism is the most prominent religion followed in this ward .

Bengali is the main language spoken.
Almost all traditional Hindu festivals are celebrated. Total percentage share of SC, ST, OBC groups is about 19%.

Suggestions:
The area displays homogeneity in terms of religion. A permanent common space such as community hall is required to hold various religious gatherings, marriages etc. as the present halls can accommodate less population. Infrastructure of multipurpose halls should be improved to hold exhibitions or events to promote local art and culture .

SOURCES: Primary survey by MCP Team

Proposed Location for multipurpose hall

House hold ownership & Duration Of Stay Observation:

Household ownership by males is 84%. Females have a significant share of 16% of holding.

76% of the total population have been living here for over 20 years.
Size of holdings vary from 10 kathas to 5 kathas. In many cases, plots have been further subdived amongst the members of the family.

Suggestion :
Patriarchal system is followed in this are as in most parts of India. significant percentage of women holdings indicates rise of social status of women in society. Majority of the people have settled partition. Lesser percentages of population for duration period for less than 20 yrs indicates that in migration to ward 33 has been very less. The need for achieving development in this ward will be more pronounced in the category of population residing here for over 20 years. Hence public private schemes to develop infrastructure of the ward eg: roads, drains , garbage disposal etc. can be implemented here.

OBSERVATIONS COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES

Location: The informal and formal Fruits and Vegetables shops, food stalls, etc. are located in the interior of the market area and the open space. The retail shops like grocery stores , specialty stores, etc are also located in the interior of the market area. All the building materials selling shops like cement, ply and the saw mill, fabrication workshop, etc. are located along the road or near the ground from where the easy loading, unloading is possible. Catering Distance: The Grocery and Convenience Stores serve a radius of 1 km The Garment stores cater to a radius of 2-3 km which also include the nearby areas. The informal shops cater to the radius of which includes the locals. The Saw mill, Grill Fabrication and Cement, ply, Electronics shops have a larger catering radius of 6 km and more.

Occupancy and Ownership Pattern of the market Though there are close to 400 shops in the area, quite some of them are found to be vacant.. Most of the shops are self owned but few are found to be rented outt. The renting of shops started 4 5 years ago.

OBSERVATIONS COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES

Infrastructure: The road infrastructure is absent in the market area. There are no pathways. There is no provision of drainage . All the shops have electricity with metered connection. There is a community toilet for the shopkeepers at the back of the market area. The shops do not have individual water supply connection. But there is a municipality water supply tap from where the shops tend to their needs. There is no parking facility. People park their vehicles by the road along the market or in the open space in the market centre. Vehicles are also parked in front of the abandoned or vacant shops.

Building Structures: Most of the shops have a permanent structure. Some of the shops have semi permanent construction. The average area of the shops is found to be 120 to 150 sq. ft. Some of the shops have combined two such units for a bigger area according to their needs. The informal shops are set up in mobile stalls.

INFERENCES COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES

Mixed use is seen in many parts of the ward especially the parts which are far from the main market for daily convenience needs.

The road infrastructure which is totally missing should be developed. It is a major complaint heard from the customers as well as the shopkeepers.
Also the drainage system needs to be developed. There is no formal parking space . If the roads or pathways are developed on street parking can be improved. The loading and unloading of goods which is difficult now due to lack of road infrastructure can be improved. Also the haphazard informal parking in the central open space needs to be avoided and a more organised parking should be developed. Few more water supply connections can help the shopkeepers. The existing toilet block can be improved. The central open area where informal food stalls are set up in the evening can have a few seating places or benches. The number of commercial establishments are far more than the required number as per UDPFI Guidelines. Many shops are found to be closed due to lack of adequate business. The ward does not have a developed industrial zone but micro enterprise and light and service industries like Saw Mill, Fabrication workshop are the most profitable businesses among the whole commercial setup of the Ward no. 33 area. Some of the commercial establishments provide employment to the local people.

Cultural events like dance competition , singing competition are organized by the local people or the clubs at certain times of the year. A Music and dance club is there built taking 4 plots with 80% open space for performance. BANK: No bank present in the ward. Residents generally use the bank of the IIT campus.

CONCLUSION & PROPOSALS:

ECONOMIC STATUS of people is low (17% is living below BPL ) thats why they spend days full of hard struggle hence unable to avail most of the social and other facilities . Therefore employment generation in the sector is on top most priority. Considering this fact in mind we propose the following ways of employment generation through the upgradation of the social infrastructure facilities: We can set up pre- primary units .Since it does not have sufficient pre-primary school at present (need 3 as per UDPFI). which will be a source of income generation and also women employment. Present condition of existing postal distribution space is not up to the mark, It can be upgraded to an information kiosk /help desk ( for providing some basic information about the entire Municipality to any person in need , for a nominal fee as profit). Provision of ITC (Industrial training Centre) to train people as skillful laborers for the society and for self employment. it can serve the purpose of the whole Municipality area. Existing Medical centers can be upgraded with better facilities and Infrastructure to provide more employment as well as good service to the society. We can upgrade the condition of existing clubs by integrating the facilities like library ,community halls etc. We can set up art and craft unit which actually would try to polish skill of these local craftsman and also provide employment

INTRODUCTION
The Talbagicha area belonging to ward no-33 of Kharagpur Municipality is mainly a medium density suburban residential area with some commercial facilities at the central part. It merely has any such big industries. The nearest industrial area comprising of a Cement production unit and an Asbestos factory at Dewanmaro, Hariatala, Kharagpur, is located almost 2.0 km away in west of Talbagicha area.

2.0 KM

1. FOGLA GROUP OF COMPANIES (ASBESTOS FACTORY) 2. ULTRA TECH CEMENT LIMITED (CEMENT FACTORY)

This industrial area contributes partly to the declination of air quality of Talbagicha area but has no other environmental impact.

ENVIRONMENT OVERVIEW
Though the Talbagicha area is surrounded by vast open agricultural land in all three sides but still due to unplanned urban growth and poor infrastructural facility the local environment has declined. The area has been confronting with different types of pollution such as soil pollution, water pollution, air pollution, noise pollution etc.

Soil

Water Major Pollutions Air

Land use map of Talbagicha

Noise

SOIL POLLUTION
The major causes of soil pollution in the area are:1. It generates through solid waste disposal. As there is no municipal waste collection system people dump wastes on the road. 2. Soil pollution is exists through out the area through open kaccha drain system also. 3. Unwise use of chemical fertilizers, insecticides and manures also increases land and soil pollution. 4. Cattle sheds generally spread foul odour and make the surroundings filthy and unhygienic. 5. Some sources of land contamination are open defecation, serviceable privies, dug well latrines etc.

WORST

BAD GOOD (IN TERMS OF SOIL POLLUTION)

Production of waste disposal is maximum in the commercial area. With the increase with residential density amount of waste disposal increases which ultimately increases the soil pollution.

WATER POLLUTION
The major causes of water pollution in the area are:1. Discharge of sludge from the septic tank and soak pits is main cause of pollution. 2. Leakage in pipelines sometimes cause entry of pollutants resulting in unsafe drinking water. 3. Due to lack of proper drainage system in many places of kuccha drain water logging takes place helping in the growth of insects and causes pollution.

WORST BAD OK (IN TERMS OF WATER POLLUTION)

AIR POLLUTION
The major causes of air pollution in the area are:1. The inhabitants burn the wastes and dry leaves which causes air pollution. 2. Wood and coal is used as fuel in some houses this adds to air pollution. 3. In the market area there are maximum sources of air pollution like the smoke from the hotels etc. 4. Also there are the emissions from the vehicles which add much to the air pollution.

WASTE BURNT BY INHABITANTS IN MANY HOUSES WOOD IS USED CAUSING AIR POLLUTION AS FUEL CAUSING EMISSIONS

AIR POLLUTION IN THE MARKET AREA

SOURCES OF COAL DUST

NOISE POLLUTION
Noise causes irritation and multiple health problems. Noise pollution mainly results from sound and blowing-horns of traffic passing through the roads and from recreational spaces like clubs. Some important places which are effected by sound pollution are Talbagicha High School, Primary school in zone no-1 etc.

School

Club

The market area is most prone to noise pollution because of heavy traffic.

OTHER CRITICAL OBSERVATIONS

1. The area is very prone to power-cut. Also there is not sufficient street lighting.

2. As insecticides are not sprayed regularly by the municipality the area is very much affected with mosquitoes. 3. There is no as such any big water body in the total area. 4. Though there are many playground and open spaces but there is no as such maintained recreational park. 5. There is quite much greenery in the total area. 6. As because yet the density in this area is not too much there is still chances to prevent the pollution and transform this area into a healthy residential area.

AIM
To study planning and local governance of Ward No-33 through Planning Survey.

The Study will aim at understanding the planning of the settlement in context of the administrative, economic, social and spatial dimensions.

Ward committees have to maintain direct contact with the other elected representatives like the local MLA and MP. They can also request them for funds for local area development schemes.

PLANNING & ZONING CONTROLS AS PER RULE :

Regulation of division of plots (Reference :The West Bengal Municipal Building Rules 2007-rule 159):
No sub-division of any plot within municipal area shall be undertaken without the prior approval of the board of councillors. A plot to be sub-divided shall be termed as mother plot. Every individual plot obtained by sub division of the mother plot shall abut a means of access having width not less than 2.00 meters. This rule shall not apply to a scheme for economically weaker section and low income group housing approved by the government. Sub-division may be allowed on the condition that the following facilities shall be provided by the owner at his own cost to the satisfaction of the board of councillors: 1. No permission for sub-division of a plot of land shall be granted unless each sub-divided plot is at least 80 sq.m in area. 2.

PROPERTY TAX IN VOGUE:

It is the tax levied on the value of a property that the owner of the property is required to pay to a government in which the property is situated. It includes land, personal property and real estate property. It is calculated on the prevalent basis of annual rental value to be determined by a thorough assessment. It can also be calculated on the basis of site value so that it includes construction cost as well.

Findings at the ward (Source: Tax collection dept., Municipality & Councillor)
Procedure : Tax amount calculated by structure valuation, which is done on the basis of a consolidated rate. It varies with variation in roof & floor type, number of floors, area, income group, construction materials, etc. E.g. Councillors house (a single level house in brick construction with asbestos roof) PT is Rs.85/four months The BPL (Below poverty line) houses approximately pay 1/3rd of the normal tax paid by most. WATER TAX : It is the unit cost incurred by the authority to provide water to the households. Generally subsidy is provided in the cost without getting overgenerous Water tax in this ward is Rs.105/House connection/quarter If people pay it within time, they have to pay Rs.95 only. COMMERCIAL TAX: Procedure : It varies with each shop s construction, scale, typology , etc. Taxes have to be paid even if the shop is abandoned, till it is owned by the person concerned. Water: Rs. 35/month for a single water connection Electricity: Rs. 30/month for a single bulb & Rs. 90/month/3bulbs on a sharing basis

Tax collection is done by door to door collection method. During tax collection, except for purely residential properties, rest are considered as commercial holdings. Sewerage tax, conservancy tax, vehicle tax, tax on animals, advertisement tax, pilgrimage tax are not being levied.

BREAK UP OF TAX COLLECTION :

Property tax constitutes 80% of the total tax to be collected while water tax is the remaining 20% of it. As there is chance of cutting the house connection, 90% of water tax is collected within time which constitutes to 18% of the total tax. But in case of property tax, only 40% is collected towards the end which is 32% of the total tax. In other words, only 50% of the Total tax (Property + Water) is collected.

SCHEMES AND THEIR STATUS

In 2010, 25 houses were built in the ward under I.G.A.Y. (INDIRA GANDHI AWAS YOJANA)

Water supply augmentation: Work under process for improving of existing supply line & provision in case of areas with
only community taps. Housing improvement for BPL families in R.A.Y. (RAJIV AWAS YOJANA) with all minimum services like water and electricity. Awaiting for the funds.

KENDRIYA GRAMEEN SADAK YOJANA: To improve the condition of the existing roads.
Awaiting for the funds. Construction of STADIUM: 11 lakhs of fund allocated. Work yet to begin. Drainage improvement & Solid waste management schemes under discussion.

PROBLEMS OF LAW AND ORDER:

Illegal Shops Temporary erections have come up. But people have no problem since it reduces their travelling distance for various facilities. No legal liquor shops The liquor consumption in the area is illegal and leads to nuisance at times. Division of Plots does not follow the rules and regulations Absence of Police Station & Fire- Fighting Station in the area (Proposal for police station in the ward under discussion) Condition of roads

PUBLIC SPENDING :
Public Bins Since government did not provide any provision for solid waste
disposal, the residents themselves have made arrangements for public bins. This is financed by the local people themselves. Some roads were concretized to reduce problems faced by the people during rains At places bulbs have been put up by residents themselves due to absence of streetlights. Maintenance is also carried out by them only. The Talbagicha Bazaar Samiti has employed few guards for security reasons at the rate of 10rs/ small shop and 50rs/ large shop Bulbs as street-light

STRATEGIES FOR DEVELOPMENT AS STATED BY COUNCILLOR:

Based on the observations of Present Scenario, the areas of planning have been categorised into 3 major components:

Infrastructure improvement Environment development Municipal institutional strengthening

GLIMPSES OF PRESENT SCENARIO:

Dilapidated condition of roads

Garbage dumping on roads

Blocked open drains

Unhygienic conditions in the market

INVENTORY OF INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT PLAN

URGENT REPAIR OF DRAINS. RENOVATION AND MAINTENANCE OF DAMAGED ROADS AUGMENTATION OF WATER SUPPLY. REPAIR AND AUGMENTATION OF EXISTING COMMUNITY LATRINES. RECRUITING MORE WORKERS FOR SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF ELECTRIC POLES CONVERSION OF KUTCHA ROADS TO BRICK MOORUM/CONCRETE SOLING PEST CONTROL AND CUTTING OF HEDGES IN THE RESIDENTIAL AREA

The sources of fund are 13th finance commission / basic minimal finance / urban infrastructure development for small & medium towns (UIDSMT) / MKDA / own source / member of parliament local area development scheme (MPLAD) / state finance commission (SFC)

ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

To take corrective measures for well water contamination through drain water seepage. Construction of community latrines. Installation of dustbins.

MUNICIPAL INSTITUTIONAL STRENGTHENING

Despite the provisions stated in the ward committee rules, the ward committees do not have any financial power to generate resources on their own; neither does the municipality allocate many resources to them for taking up developmental work. (Source: Peoples participation in urban governance- comparative study of ward committees in West Bengal, k. C. Sivaramakrishnan)

A FEW OBSERVATIONS ON SURVEY:

There is shortage of man power for manning and maintenance of the ward . Eg.: only 5 labourers are available for cleaning and garbage disposal in the entire ward. 2 of them are needed to serve the market and so the residential area is not served adequately.

Tax collection to be strictly implemented by increasing the numbers of tax collection teams. As there is chance of cutting the
house connection 90% water tax is collected within time, but in case of property tax it is very less.

More funds are required in order to achieve overall development of the ward and to ensure user satisfaction. No sewage system is existing in ward 33. Most of the houses have septic tanks and soak pits while many houses let out their
sewage openly which is a very unhealthy practice. No rainwater harvesting process or drainage for rainwater is there. Due to the natural slope the water runs through the road and goes to the canal near by, but it harms the road surface. So proper rainwater drainage is required. Plots allotted to the refugees primarily was 10 katthas, but now most of plots are sub-divided among the family members or sold to the other parties. In most of the cases, the regulation of division of plots in the West Bengal municipal building rules 2007- under rule 159 are not maintained.

POSSIBLE SUGGESTIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT :

Ward committee must be formed as soon as possible.
Proper demarcation of ward boundary is required including street signage. Increasing the number of safai karmachari in the ward to improve the hygiene level in the locality

Records on BPL must be updated regularly. This will help in providing facilities and enhancing the lifestyle of the people
who actually need it.
Household Survey conducted in the ward has led to the following conclusions regarding the priority of the needs of

the residents:
First : Solid Waste Management facilities Second : Cutting of uncontrolled hedge-growth and pest-control to prevent diseases Third : Improvement of road infrastructure Fourth : Improvement of water supply & drainage systems Fifth : Betterment of street lighting system Sixth: Proper health care facilities required
