1 PROJECT BACKGROUND
1.1 BACKGROUND
As per the 2001 census, the urban population of India stood at 285.35 million, which is about 27.8 per cent of the countrys total population; by 2021, the urban population is estimated to account for above 40 per cent of Indias population. Thus, cities and towns are expected to play a vital role in Indias socio-economic transformation and change. Apart from their contribution to the countrys gross domestic product (GDP), which is currently placed at about 50-55 per cent, and their growing role in global markets, cities in India will be the engines of economic growth, the centre-points of innovation and the hub of many socio-economic activities. However, the current state of affairs in most of our urban areas is unsatisfactory on all parameters of urban governance like planned growth, share of slum population, reliability of civic infrastructure and financial resources. All these factors will have a significant negative economic consequence if not addressed in a planned manner. Municipal governments and other institutions responsible for providing services are facing an acute shortage of capacity and resources, notwithstanding the Constitution (74th) Amendment Act, 1992, on urban local bodies. Most urban local bodies are starved of resources on account of their inability to effectively use their revenue-raising powers, particularly those relating to property tax and user charges. Given the current state of affairs of our cities, their incompatibility with the countrys socioeconomic objectives and Indias growing role in the world economy, the Government of India launched the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) in FY 2005-06. This mission will be in place for the next seven years; it aims at creating economically productive, efficient, equitable and responsive cities. The Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission focuses on: Improving and augmenting the economic and social infrastructure of cities; Ensuring basic services to the urban poor including security of tenure; Initiating wide-ranging urban sector reforms whose primary aim is to eliminate the legal, institutional and financial constraints that have impeded investment in urban infrastructure and service; and Strengthening municipal governments and their functioning with respect to the provisions of the Constitution (Seventy-Fourth) Amendment Act, 1992. It provides for public disclosure of local spending decisions together with the earmarking of budgetary locations for basic services to the poor. The JNNURM assumes that in order to make our cities meaningfully contribute to Indias economic growth and its poverty reduction objectives, it is essential to create incentives and support for urban reforms both at the state and the city level. This can be achieved by: Developing appropriate enabling frameworks; Enhancing the creditworthiness of municipal governments; and Integrating the urban poor with the service delivery systems.
1 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
The JNNURM is also designed to encourage the involvement of the private sector in service delivery and management and thus the implementation of the reform agenda. It accordingly provides for the participation of business, industry, civic groups and communities in local decision-making. It is estimated that cities with a million plus population and a few special cities (currently 63 cities) together need about Rs. 1,20,000 crores to cover the gap in their infrastructure-building funds. To meet this gap, the Government of India (GoI) proposes to allocate about Rs. 50,000 crores during the next seven years in the form of grants to urban local bodies (ULBs).

ReportsTimeline for Implementationof ReformsApplication fundsApplication for JNNURM funds
But GoI has framed the JNNURM guidelines in such a way that applicant ULBs will be eligible for grant assistance provided the cities undertake certain reforms; the objective is to improve infrastructure as well as to ensure long-term sustenance of the ULBs. Thus, to be eligible for the grant assistance under JNNURM, the Government of India requires cities to: Formulate a medium-term City Development Plan (CDP) to align with citizens interest and priorities; Prepare project proposals in accordance with the CDP; and Draw up a timeline for implementing the urban sector reforms. Subject to the fulfillment of the above-stated requirements and their satisfactory appraisal, the Government of India, Ministry of Urban Development/Ministry of Urban Employment and Poverty Alleviation will sign a Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) with the state government and the city, and release funds in accordance with the payment schedule that will form a part of the Memorandum of Agreement (MoA). The formulation of a City Development Plan is thus a mandatory requirement for accessing JNNURM funds. The Haryana Urban Infrastructure Development Board, Government of Haryana, has retained the services of CRISIL Infrastructure Advisory to prepare the City Development Plan under the JNNURM guidelines for Faridabad.
The CDP clearly defines how a Corporation will serve its customers (businesses and citizens). For example, the CDP talks about how the Corporation intends to guarantee a basic level of urban services to all citizens; make urban planning responsive to emerging needs; and become responsive to the needs of, and improve its services, to local businesses. The CDP also outlines how the Corporation plans to run its business. The CDP further elaborates on how the Corporation intends to manage public finances in a modern and transparent way; execute urban planning and governance in line with an established framework; and become more responsive - cost and time efficient by availing of technology in its governance and service delivery processes. Finally, the CDP reveals the Corporations
strategy to manage its resources, i.e. how it intends to increase revenues and expand its tax base to allow for self-sustaining urban service delivery; improve its creditworthiness; and recruit and retain a skilled workforce.

3 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Identified stakeholders from diverse backgrounds like Industries Associations, Business Associations, Resident Welfare Associations, NGOs, citizens groups, line agencies involved with the Municipal Corporation of Faridabad (MCF) like the Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA), Public Works Department (PWD), the Electricity Board, etc. Step 1.2: Workshop with MCF officials Based on the findings of the above tasks, a workshop was conducted for MCF officials and the line agencies to understand their perspective on Faridabad, issues and technical details of the existing infrastructure. During this workshop, the objectives of JNNURM were specified to them and they were asked to identify issues concerning the city and the strategies required to address these issues and their future plans. Step 1.3: Second workshop to define vision/mission statements Based on the findings of Step 1.1, a workshop was conducted to appraise the citizens about the JNNURM process, provide facts and figures about Faridabad, and urge them to identify challenges which Faridabad needs to overcome. The stakeholders hailed from across the spectrum, including citizens, resident welfare association members, chartered accountants, advocates, Vypar Mandal and NGO representatives, and officials from MCF and the State Government Departments. The stakeholders were appraised about the objectives of JNNURM and the CDP process, and the findings of step 1.1. Further, they were asked to identify issues and strategies in the area of urban infrastructure and envision for Faridabad. Phase 2 Assessment of City Infrastructure and Finances of MCF
Collected additional information on demography, economy, civic services, physical features, etc. Carried out infrastructure assessment including a detailed analysis of the existing municipal services and also undertaken the operating efficiency of the core municipal services provided by the Corporation. Conducted a credit assessment to provide insight into the Corporations current performance and financial management practices, as well as provide an opinion on the ability of the Corporation to meet its financial commitments on a timely basis. Phase 3 Draft City Development Plan Step 3.1: Identification of Projects for City Investment Plan Norms for each civic service was fixed, based on desired levels of services as stakeholders views or available policy documents.. Gaps in all core municipal services were identified for a horizon period of 30 years, Projects in the area of non-civic services like economic infrastructure, land development, parks and playgrounds were identified, based on stakeholder consultations including those with MCF officials. Step 3.2: Project costing and determination of funding sources Based on the consultants experience and available information from Faridabad, unit cost for each service component was arrived at, and gaps in service investment were located .

Based on the priorities of MCF, investment phasing was done. Based on the JNNURM funding pattern and MCFs financial position, investment sustenance was assessed. Step 3.3: Strategic Implementation Plan An implementation plan for all the prioritised projects/actions was prepared in a logical sequence based on the phased investment and availability of resources. A detailed capital investment plan for the identified projects was prepared. Also, a Financial Operating Plan to outline the preliminary budget and clarify financing assumptions and responsibilities for implementation and financing was prepared. Phase 4: Final CDP document The draft CDP was presented to officials of MCF and Council members. Based on their feedback and feedback from the Haryana Urban Infrastructure Development Board (HUIDB), the draft CDP was modified for final submission to the Government of India.
5 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
On agriculture front, Faridabad is famous for gears, refrigerators, shoes and tyres are other wellknown industrial products of the city. The Badkhal Lake tourist complex, the Suraj Kund Tourist Complex, the Aravali Golf Club, the Raja Nahar Singh Palace and Dabchick are famous tourist spots of the city. Faridabad District HARYANA State production of Heena. Tractors, motorcycles, switch For ease of civil administration, Faridabad district is divided into five sub-divisions viz. Faridabad, Ballabgarh, Palwal, Hodal & Hathin. The Faridabad Municipal Corporation consists of Old Faridabad, Ballabgarh and NIT (New Industrial Township).
The limited thickness of aquifers further restricts the development of ground water on a large scale. In the Delhi quartzites, the availability of ground water is also limited and is controlled by secondary permeability imparted by joints and fractures.
Faridabad is identified as one of the Delhi Metropolitan Area (DMA)/ Central National Capital Region cities of National Capital Region (NCR) and accordingly it has strong linkages with Delhi. NH 2 from Delhi-Mathura passes through the length of the city and is the central axis of the city of Faridabad. Further, NH 3 and NH 4 also pass through the city. It is connected with Gurgaon by the Gurgaon-Faridabad road. As part of NCR proposals, connectivity is proposed for improvement through the western peripheral expressway (Kundli-Manesar-Palwal-KMP) and eastern peripheral expressway (Kundli-Ghaziabad-Palwal KGP).

Rail linkage Faridabad is on the broad gauge line from Delhi to Mathura of the Northern Railway and is an important Rail Junction in this sector as most train reaching Delhi pass through Faridabad. Hence Faridabad is well connected with the rest of the country by rail. Apart from the Main Faridabad Station, it also has two minor stations, Old Faridabad and Ballabgarh stations. Air linkage The Indira Gandhi International Airport and the Palam domestic airport, New Delhi, are the nearest airports providing air linkage for the city.
Transport Power Water Sewerage, Solid waste management & drainage Communications and social infrastructure Environment and disaster management While being part of NCR gives a high priority status to the city, the ground situation with respect to infrastructure reflects poorly upon this emerging metropolis of the capital region. Whereas the quality of infrastructure in NCT and Faridabad are at opposite ends with Faridabad on the poorer side, the governance and financial condition of the Municipal Corporation also reflects the same. The reasons for the current situation are galore; lack of initiatives, strong leadership; and so on. While being part of NCR should convert into a strong opportunity for Faridabad to transform, on the contrary this status appears to have become a bane on the functioning of the city. This has also resulted from the lack of seriousness/ timely implementation with respect to several of NCR projects related CNCR cities like Faridabad. For instance the eastern and western peripheral expressways, public transportations systems in the form of RRTS/ MRTS, Orbital Rail Corridor etc, all are nearing completion of their planned implementation period but are yet to be put into formal actions on ground. Also to be noted is the delayed implementation of the Yamuna Action Plan (YAP) and associated programs in the sewerage sector. Accordingly the YAP proposals and each of the NCR proposals under various sectors ranging from growth management to waste management with respect to Faridabad are presented and discussed in tandem with the existing situation in the city in the following chapters.
2.7 ECONOMY
Faridabad, a constituent part of NCR is home to one of the largest industrial estates of Asia which houses a large number of manufacturing industries. Economy of Faridabad is more or less dependent on Industry.
On the whole, the total number of small, medium and large industries in the FaridabadBallabgarh Complex stands at about 15,000. The Complex provides direct and indirect employment to nearly half a million people and ranks as the 9th largest industrial estate in Asia. Its combined turnover is estimated to be about Rs.1,500 billion. The place is home to many international/ multinational companies like Whirlpool, Goodyear, Larsen & Toubro, Asia Brown Boveri, GKN Invel, Woodward Governor and Castrol besides Escorts, Eicher, Cutler Hammer, Hyderabad Asbestos, and Nuchem which are operating in this belt. This industrial estate in Faridabad is spread over an approximate area of 6,948 hectares and is home to a variety of engineering products from forgings to tractors, clutch assembly to leaf springs. The major industrial production in the district, mainly represented by Faridabad city itself, is of tractors, steel re-rolling, scientific instruments, power looms, agriculture implements,
JCB cranes, etc. The district as a whole reported the production of 12,880 tractors, 24,230 metric tonnes of sugar, 4,240 motorcycles, mopeds, scooters, and agriculture implements worth Rs. 5,666 lakhs, during the year 2000-01. Industry, Employment and Economic Structure The industrial estate of Faridabad is understood to be providing direct and indirect employment to nearly half a million people. The work force participation rate (WFPR) of Faridabad city as per Census 2001 is 31 percent that is about 3.3 lakhs implying another equal number of employees of Faridabad industries travel daily from other NCR areas to Faridabad. The employment in the industries of Faridabad is both skilled and unskilled in nature. The majority of the workforce today is in the tertiary/ services sector. This also indicates the quantum of migration that had and has happened within and outside NCR. While migration within NCR is low, migration into NCR from other regions of Northern India is high. This causes a larger impact on Faridabad due to its industrial character. It may also be noted that the WFPR of Faridabad city was 30 percent in 1991 and 34 percent in 1981. Sectors, which indicated maximum diversification and growth over the decades, are industries other than household and services. The decline in WFPR over the decades is due to the change in the economic character of Faridabad- from being predominantly primary/ secondary it is now tertiary/ service oriented. The trend is similar to that in NCR with industries other than household registering the maximum growth. Industry and Environment The industries and the manufacturing process is largely environment friendly. However the estate has a large number of heavy vehicles plying in and out to transport the raw material and finished goods and these have been the major cause for the air pollution in the surroundings of this large estate. As earlier mentioned several small scale industries which act as ancillary units are located within the residential sectors of the city thereby involving the plying of heavy vehicles on most arterial and internal roads of the city too. Another feature to be noted is the absence of any common effluent treatment plant (CETP) for the large quantum of industrial waste waters generated here. The present industrial water demand is about 20 MLD and the same is expected to reach 100 MLD in another 20 years owing to the growth of the industry. For this large quantum of industrial water supply, the generation of waste water would be equally large necessitating the need for common treatment (from economic point of view) of these wastewaters.

There are no major hazardous industries located in the estate and the only hazard the estate is prone to is fire. In Faridabad instances of industrial fire accidents are minimal and none reported during the past five years. An Economy in Transition Industrial activity in Faridabad itself is the result of the policy decision taken after independence regarding the nature of development in the surroundings of Delhi. Faridabad emerged as the choice for the creation of a settlement for the refugees of Partition as well the preferred location for setting up the manufacturing base of the capital as well as the country. The estate, once ranked among the top industrial estates of the continent, today is in the 9th position owing to the neglect during the past decade and a half coupled with stiff competition from other NCR cities and cities elsewhere in the country. Clearly, the change in the economic policies of the Government of India regarding foreign direct investment has led to a change in the economic structure of the country as a whole and also of
such towns like Faridabad. Within NCR, Gurgaon and Noida have been in the forefront in attracting these investments, which have been primarily in the information technology (IT) and bio-technology (BT) sectors. Faridabad has lagged behind in these sectors and is now gearing up to catch up with Gurgaon and Noida. More and more investments are flowing into the sectors of industry, commerce and real estate. State government too has been proactive in these terms through awarding incentives for investments to come in. In case of Faridabad, Haryana State Industrial Development Corporation (HSIIDC) is the nodal agency for the purpose of industrial development. There are five major industrial associations in Faridabad which play a big role in terms of the development and regulation of industrial activity in the city. They are: 1. Faridabad Industries Association 2. Faridabad Small Industries Association 3. Laghu Udhyog Bharti 4. Faridabad Manufacturers Association 5. Faridabad Chamber of Commerce & Industries
These townships can also be Special Economic Zones (SEZ) with uninterrupted power supply, efficient telecommunication facilities, integrated transport networks and freight corridors, warehousing and effluent treatment facilities, etc. Further, Faridabad has also been identified as the location for the wholesale trade of auto parts. There is also plan for the development of the Alternative Wholesale Market for auto parts by the concerned state level agency as a joint venture project and proposal to declare auto parts as a commodity under the Specified Commodities Act to avail the benefits.
Also, the industry is faced with the challenge of water supplies in future in view of the current situation of non-perennial sources and continuous depletion of ground water sources. Alternate sources for augmentation of supplies, coupled with technology up-gradation and a drive towards reduced industrial water consumption/ recycling are of paramount importance. Incompatible land uses Faridabad today is dotted with several industrial units, set up in non-confirming land use categories, primarily residential areas. Also HSIIDC/ HUDA has so far developed only about 3500 industrial plots as against the current number of 15,000 operating industrial units in the city. This is understood to be due to the lack of proposals in the Development Plan for smaller units. Industrial associations have also been vocal in their requirement for organised industrial estates for varied sizes and purposes. Implementation of long-term strategic proposals of NCR For being part of NCR, Faridabad has been identified for a varied number of proposals towards mutually benefiting economic growth like, the Common Economic Zone, Alternate Wholesale Market for auto parts, the KMP and KGP Peripheral expressways, MRTS and so on. However, a time-bound action plan for the implementation of the same is necessary on the part of NCRPB to implement the proposals so that the individual cities dont lose out due to delay in implementation of these proposals.

There is observed to be a clear multiplicity of roles by these institutions due to the fact that each institution operates under different and independent constitutional provisions/ acts and that the administered areas are different from the jurisdictional areas. The same is brought out in the following section. Institutional overlap of service delivery is also elaborated under each respective sector of infrastructure assessment chapter.
The staffing pattern of MCF under broad heads is presented in the table below. 520 posts in the Corporation are still vacant. Most of these posts are in the conservancy sector. To overcome this shortfall, MCF has engaged the services of persons on daily wages; these persons number 1510. That takes the total staff strength at MCF to 5,317 against the sanctioned 4,327.

MCF at present is largely manual in its functioning with computerisation restricted to a minimal number of senior officers of the Corporation. E-governance systems are yet to be planned and implemented in the Corporation. On the financial management front too, the corporation is lagging behind with introduction of double entry accruals accounting system and computerisation yet to be initiated. Conformity to the provisions of 74th Constitutional Amendment Act (74th CAA) Sections 41-44 of the Haryana Municipal Corporation Act, 1994 (HMCA) lays down the powers and functions of the Corporation and the provisions for operationalising these powers and functions are provided in the following chapters. Section 42 of the HMCA lists out the functions that the State Government may entrust to the Corporation through a government order (GO) which essentially comprise the 18 listed items of Schedule XII of the 74th CAA. However, the HMCA doesnt give powers and procedure to operationilise the Schedule XII items. Thus the basic essence of the 74th CAA remains far from achieved. Since its inception, the Municipal Corporation of Faridabad (MCF) has been the provider and facilitator of all core municipal services, including water supply and sewerage, in its jurisdictional area. However, the jurisdictional area as a term is contiguous as there is more than one service provider and implementing agency within MCFs jurisdictional area. These are HUDA, HSIIDC and Haryana Housing Board etc. HUDA, for example, provides services in the areas being developed by them and transfers these areas/ sectors to MCF for maintenance purposes only after five years of development. This clearly presents the multiplicity of authorities and functions against the very purpose of the 74th CAA. In the case of Faridabad, only 12 of 18 functions listed under the Schedule XII of 74th CAA have been devolved, but even these are not devolved in true sense as they are not backed by operational procedures in the HMCA and also necessary financial support from State government. Other functions like town planning, urban forestry, and urban poverty alleviation are yet to be devolved. A summary of the conformity of the provisions of 74th CAA is presented below.
14 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Regularity in holding of elections: The elections are held every five years. The Corporation was established in 1992. The last general elections were held in 2003 and the next are to be held in 2007-08. Constitution of Ward committees: The ward committees are constituted as per the provision of 74th CAA. There is a Ward Committee for each of the administrative ward within the MCF area. However there is no clarity on the administrative and sanctioning powers of these ward committees. Devolution of Planning Functions: No. (Master Plan is prepared by the Town & Country Planning Department and CDP by City Government). Building permissions are given by MCF and HUDA in their respective controlled areas. There is area overlap and functions overlap. Establishment of the DPC/ MPC: MCF/ Faridabad is part of NCR and NCRPB fits the role. Others: The repeal of Urban Land (Ceiling & Regulation) Act 1976, suitable amendment to Rent Control Act and Stamp Duty Acts are under consideration by Govt. of Haryana.
E-governance: E-governance is non-operational in MCF. Organisation needs complete restructuring and strengthening.
To undertake building works. HUDA has so far setup 27 urban estates throughout the state of Haryana of which one estate is in Faridabad and extends beyond the MCF limits into the FCA and administered by a zonal Administrator assisted by an estate officer and an assistant estate officer. The main functions of these Estate Officers are to sell developed and undeveloped plots of all categories of land and realise the amount of installments. A good number of developed sectors within Faridabad as presented in the adjacent figure are under the administration and management of HUDA.
15 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
These sectors are residential, commercial as well as industrial in nature. At present the Sectors being maintained by HUDA are 3, 12, 20A & B, 21 C Part III, 21D, 30, 31, 44 to 48, 55, 58, 59 and Dhauj Crushing Zone. New sectors being developed by HUDA are 2, 56, 56A, 62, 64 and 65. It may be noted that HUDA apart from providing basic infrastructure like roads, drains and street lights as part of development of a sector, maintains the sector for five years. If such sectors fall under the jurisdiction of MCF they are later transferred to MCF for further maintenance. However water supply, sewerage and waste management functions are looked after by MCF from the day of the development of the sector irrespective of whether it is administered by MCF or not. This situation is understood to be leading to a lot of revenue loss to MCF.
No say for MCF in preparation of DP for its jurisdictional area As of the Town & Country Planning Department of Govt. of Haryana is the sole agency that prepares the DP for all urban areas/ controlled areas in the state. Town planning as a function is yet to be devolved to MCF in line with 74th CAA and as earlier mentioned, the jurisdictional area of MCF as a term itself is contiguous due to multiplicity of service providing and implementing agencies.

The stakeholders comprised Corporation officials; elected representatives; officials from line agencies, NGOs, resident welfare associations, industry associations and vyapar mandals; advocates; chartered accountants; and citizens. The stakeholder consultations also involved
representatives of the HUDA, the PWD-PH, and the Town & Country Planning department. In addition, individual discussions were held with Faridabad MLAs and MPs. Three workshops were held during the period of 8th July 2006 to 16th July 2006 as illustrated in the chart above. The outcomes of each discussion and workshop are summarized in the following section: this discussion forms the base for the formulation of a vision for the city, strategies and action plans. The details of the participants and the summary of consultations are presented in Annexures 1 and 4.

Discussion on Draft CDP with HUIDB on September 6th 2006 MCF officials, Council members and HUIDB officials
Interactive Workshop As part of the CDP process, MCF organised various workshops. The interactive session was the first in this process, organised on July 8th, 2006 and was chaired by the Divisional Commissioner Gurgaon. The participants were representatives from the GoI and the GoH, MCF officials and officials of all line agencies with offices in Faridabad. The objective of the workshop was to create awareness among the stakeholders of Faridabad regarding the JNNURM objectives, the process and the guidelines for preparation & evaluation criteria for City Development Plan and the Detail Project Report. During the workshop, the consultants presented the CDP process being adopted for Faridabad. Further, there were a series of presentations on the objectives of JNNURM, mandatory and optional reforms, guidelines for the preparation of DPR for citywide and basic urban services for poor projects, evaluation process and expectations from the CDP and DPRs by officials from GoI, Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO), National Building Construction Company (NBCC) and National Institute of Urban Affairs (NIUA), etc. Representatives from GoI have appraised the MCF officials on the objective of JNNURM and the commitment from MCF on the reforms and objectives of linking investment with reforms.
NIUA representatives have explained the CDP appraisal process. The following aspects should be addressed clearly and in greater detailed in the CDP demography, urban poor, urban finance and city vision.
19 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Officials from NBCC and HUDCO have appraised the gathering about various aspects of DPR, areas which need to be detailed out in the DPR like area coverage, rate analysis, and cost analysis of various technologies. In the case of basic services for the urban poor, there should be a separate DPR for each slum. The DPRs should be comprehensive, taking into account housing and infrastructure requirement, beneficiary details, etc. The MCF Workshop Following the interactive workshop, an in-house workshop involving officials from MCF and line agencies was organised on 11th July 2006. It was a kick-off meeting to create awareness regarding JNNURM and the CDP process. The objective of the workshop was to secure the implementing agencys views on issues such as the strengths of Faridabad and the areas, which deserve focus in the interests of the citys development. Over 50 officials, including the Municipal Commissioner, Joint Commissioners and department heads of MCF and representatives from line agencies attended the workshop. The meeting started with a brief introduction of JNNURM, highlighting its features, objectives and desired reforms. The importance of JNNURM and the crucial role of the CDP were explained. Following these initial discussions, a presentation was made before all officials on facts and figures relating to Faridabads demography, economics, MCFs financial profile, civic infrastructure and related issues, and proposed reforms to be implemented under JNNURM. Later, the officials were asked to identify the major issues concerning the city, specific issues concerning municipal services and strategies and actions required to address the issues. In addition, officials were also provided with data formats and were briefed on the purpose and relevance of the detailed data. This is crucial for the CDP preparation and the identification of issues, projects and strategies. The strengths of Faridabad, according to the MCF officials, were its strong industrial base, and its proximity and connectivity to New Delhi. With regard to their vision for Faridabad, participants wished to see Faridabad as the best city of Haryana, clean and beautiful with ideal infrastructure facilities and an efficient public transport system. During the discussion, the Commissioner of MCF indicated that Faridabad needs to have a comprehensive plan for sewerage, storm water disposal, a well-planned road network, multilevel parking facilities, and the improvement and beautification of all traffic junctions. Also, the plan needs to provide for the expediting of ongoing efforts to develop parks and playgrounds in all residential sectors. Additionally, the Commissioner has stressed that MCF should strive to computerise all its departments and implement e-Governance in all areas of its operations. The participants and the outcome of the workshop are presented in Annexures 2 and 4.

Discussion with Elected Representatives In order to get the larger picture or vision for Faridabad and the order of priorities, individual discussions were held with the elected representatives -- Shri. Avatar Singhji Bhadana, Member of Parliament; members of the Legislative Assembly representing MCF; Shri. A.C. Chowdary; Shri. Mahendra Pratap Singhji; and Smt. Sharada Rathod. The detailed discussion with the elected representatives is recorded in Annexure 4.
All the elected representatives felt that Faridabad would face problems mainly in the areas water supply, sewerage & drainage, and internal/ regional connectivity - if planned interventions are not given importance. The number of slums has been continuously increasing; the slum dwellers do not have access to basic services. The concentration of these locations in industrial and other environmentally sensitive areas is also a major problem that should be immediately tackled. The increasing crime rate in Faridabad is major fallout of the slowdown of industrial growth as well as the failure of various urban poor/ slum development initiatives due to restrictions on the development of slums on government lands. Owing to these shortcomings, Faridabad is not in a position to compete with other cities in attracting new investments, particularly in the service sector. The elected representatives have suggested that to regain lost glory, Faridabad needs to urgently address the development of its city civic infrastructure, power supply, availability of higher educational facilities and medical facilities, which are lacking in Faridabad. The City Stakeholder Workshop This workshop was held on 16th July, 2006 with the objective of bringing together municipal decision-makers and stakeholders to arrive at a consensus and define the vision and mission for Faridabads economic growth for improving the quality of life in the city. Mr. Mehtab Singh, IAS, Commissioner of MCF, had chaired and coordinated the workshop. Mr. Sunderlal Sharma, Senior Deputy Mayor and Mr. NK Katara, Superintending Engineer, MCF was also on the panel to facilitate the discussion. The workshop commenced with a welcome note by Mr. NK Katara. He unfolded the concept of the City Development Plan (CDP) in the context of the JNNURM and further explained the objective of JNNURM under which the Government plans to provide capital grants to urban local bodies (ULB) for funding various urban infrastructure projects/ initiatives that bring greater transparency, accountability and governance in the functioning of the Corporation. He emphasised that no proposal would be accepted unless a CDP was in place and that the idea of the CDP was to fund projects, which fitted into the overall vision of the city.

Later, CRISIL Infrastructure Advisory representatives presented the CDP process being adopted in Faridabad and gave out facts and figures based on a rapid assessment of the city that was carried out by the consultants. In addition, stakeholders were apprised of the potential and challenges which Faridabad needed to overcome to improve its infrastructure and be eligible for JNNURM funding. These talks and presentations created an understanding amongst the stakeholders regarding JNNURM and the importance of the CDP. The stakeholders were then requested to focus their discussion on the following aspects: The major issues related to Faridabad and factors affecting economic growth Issues related to municipal services The future of Faridabad, i.e., Faridabad in the next 15-20 years from the perspective of economic development and municipal services Strategies and actions required Your contribution towards the betterment of Faridabad The stakeholders discussions mainly focused on the poor state of infrastructure and unauthorised construction; unplanned development of industrial estates and location of industries in residential areas; and non -availability of developed industrial plots as per the requirement of different industries. The stakeholders were appreciative of this exercise and suggested that MCF should conduct such meetings frequently to get feedback from citizens. The commissioner
readily accepted this suggestion and promised to hold such meetings regularly during the implementation of JNNURM. The details of issues, suggestions and strategies proposed by stakeholders are presented in Annexure 4. Representation of Urban poor & Slums in Stakeholder Consultations Due to the poor quality of data and lack of any socio-economic data on slums in Faridabad, consultations with citizens have been the main recourse to identify issues pertaining to services delivery in slums. Considering the need and importance for representation of the same in the stakeholder consultations, each consultation and discussion also focused on aspects related to urban poor and slums in the city. These consultations were in the form of discussions with the MP/ MLA specifically on the slums; discussions with the elected representatives/ corporators of each ward on the status and problems of slums in their ward; consultations with the NGOs working in these slums; and discussions with slum dwellers during visits to select slums in the city like Bapu Nagar, Dabua Colony, Mirjapur etc. Presentation of Draft CDP Based on the inputs from stakeholder consultations, workshops and an analytical review of existing infrastructure, the Draft CDP was formulated, replete with a city investment plan which showed MCFs investment capacity and its strategies and action plan for implementation of CDP. The same is submitted in the form a report to elicit feedback. The draft CDP was also placed for discussion with HUIDB officials on 6th September 2006 based on which the state level sanctioning committee has proposed for approval of the Draft CDP and finalization for onward submission of final CDP to GoI. The draft CDP was also presented by MCF to its Council. The feedback thus received from all such quarters was used to further refine the Draft CDP for final submission to the GoI for approval.

4.1.1 Demography
The growth of Faridabad has been a continuous process since independence. Faridabad city is a result of the decision taken after the Partition of the country to establish an industrial-cumhousing estate at Faridabad to relieve the pressure of population growth in Delhi and also to decentralize the location of industries. Since then, Faridabad has been the hub of industrial activity of the state of Haryana and has more than 600 heavy/ medium and small-scale industries. This industrial inducement coupled with natural growth of Faridabad increased many folds over the past four decades. The demographic transition is presented in Table 3. Table 3. Population Growth of Faridabad
Census Year Population Total Decadal Change Growth Rate (%) 1961 56,000 1971 1,22,000 66,000 117.86 1981 3,30,864 2,08,864 171.20 1991 6,25,085 2,94,221 88.93 2001 10,55,938 4,30,853 68.93
As evident, the population growth over the past decade of 1991-2001 has come down in comparison to the earlier decades. However, the city has registered a decadal growth rate of about 69 percent and an average annual CAGR of 5.38 percent, which are still on the higher side. In our discussion so far, we have considered the area under the jurisdiction of MCF only. However, the economic activity in the city is to a very large extent directly dependent on the national capital New Delhi, located close by. Faridabad is also a part of the NCR; hence the growth dynamics of Faridabad will depend and move in direct relation to that in NCR.
Faridabad has a higher gross population density, compared to other peer group cities like PimpriChinchwad and Kota, but the density is lesser than that of Visakhapatnam, which is also an industrial city. Though Faridabads present day population density is in a comfortable range for the quantum of area under the jurisdiction of its Corporation, the comparison mentioned above
and the significant increase in density signals the need for planned dispersal of development activities within the Corporation area. It is observed that the areas within FCA towards Gurgaon have been on high demand for fast paced growth where real estate activity has picked up considerably during the past five years. Private colonizers have developed and are in the process of developing large number of apartment and housing complexes in these areas. There are also institutional and recreation related developments in the area. Major commercial developments in the form of shopping malls, multiplexes etc are observed to be still restricted to the NH 2 and its nearby surroundings.
Growth DirectionsCommercial Growth
migration within NCR is low, migration into NCR from other regions of Northern India is high. This causes a larger impact on Faridabad due to its industrial character. Accordingly, the past and current trends of population growth in Faridabad city have been projected using various methods, the results of which are presented below. Table 6. Population projections for Faridabad
Population projections Method 2001 2011 2021 2031 Polynomial 2nd order method 15,96,403 22,54,233 30,28,501 Polynomial 3rd order method 15,87,680 22,20,861 29,72,461 Arithmetic increase method 13,05,923 15,55,907 18,05,892 Incremental increase method 14,27,540 19,20,760 25,35,598 Geometrical progression method 21,69,481 44,57,313 91,57,787 Assumed projection 1055938 15,37,208 21,34,351 28,45,505
Source: Analysis
It is observed that the variance in the case of polynomial methods and incremental increase methods is low; these largely follow the current growth trends and are in line with what has been envisaged in the Regional Plan 2021 of NCR. While the projections with the arithmetic increase method are on the lower side, those by the geometric progression method are on the higher side. Accordingly, an average of the polynomial 2nd order method, polynomial 3rd order method and incremental increase methods is considered appropriate and present the closest of the current population growth trends. The population projection for Faridabad is thus assumed as 15.37 lakhs by 2011, 21.34 lakhs by 2021 and 28.46 lakhs by 2031.
villages, altogether referred to as the Faridabad Controlled Area. The DP was prepared comprising 91 sectors to accommodate an estimated population of 17.5 lakhs by 2011.

(ii) The above areas include areas under existing land uses within the towns of old Faridabad, NIT and Ballabgarh.
While 50 percent of the urbanisable area is proposed for residential purposes, a significant 20 percent of the area is proposed for industrial uses. Each of the land use categories is further detailed below. Residential An area of 19,262 acres/77.95 sq.km. has been reserved for residential purposes on the basis of an average residential density of 90 persons per area. However, the proposed residential density for the residential sectors adjoining the industrial areas was fixed at 120 persons per acre to accommodate the population of the Economical Weaker Section (EWS) and Low Income Group (LIG). The sectors adjoining the Central Business District (CBD) have been proposed to be developed on the basis of residential density of 100 persons per acre whereas the sectors on rocky terrains along the Badkhal-Suraj Kund road were expected to have lower residential density.
29 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Commercial An area of 1910 acres/ 7.73 sq.km. has been proposed for commercial purposes in the Development Plan. Considering the proposed industrial area in the eastern side of the Agra Canal and the inadequacy of commercial areas in the Faridabad-Ballabgarh Complex, about 3.33 sq.km. of the proposed commercial area was planned on the eastern side of the Agra Canal. The proposal mainly aims at locating commercial areas along major roads and sector roads between sector 78 to 83 and sector 70. To the west of the Agra Canal, sector 12, which was previously planned as a City center, was retained as a commercial-cum-business centre and a town park was merged with this sector for a better synthesis of high-rise buildings and open spaces. This would also take care of the need for open spaces to an extent. In addition to the commercial belt between sectors 21-C, 46, 45 and the railway line, seven District Business Centres have also been proposed in sectors 52, NIT No. 1, 45, 4, 16, 18 and 79 in the Development Plan. Industrial Considering the industrial character of the Faridabad-Ballabgarh Complex, the area under industrial uses was proposed at 7,749 acres/ 31.36 sq.km. Of this, an area of 10.65 sq.km.on east of Agra Canal was proposed in the form of six industrial sectors. Special Zone An area of 4.42 sq.km. was proposed to be used as a special zone wherein institutions, offices, recreational facilities and areas with residential, commercial and other uses ancillary to the main uses mentioned above were planned. However, there was a condition - the gross area under each main use would not be less than 10 acres. A special zone was planned to incorporate mixed and inter-dependant land uses. Public Utilities While accommodating the then existing public utility sites, new sites for purposes such as sewerage treatment facilities and waste disposal have been proposed in the Development Plan. The total area proposed under this category is 1.55 sq.km. Public and Semi-Public Uses
An area of 5.30 sq.km. was proposed for accommodating regional level, town level and community level institutions and amenities. The regional and town level facilities like hospitals, schools, and colleges etc are proposed in a linear pattern along the major roads on east of Agra Canal. The neighbourhood level community facilities were proposed to be provided at the level of preparation of layout plan of industrial sector. The Development Plan provides for 17 colleges and 17 hospitals following the National Capital Region (NCR) norms. Transport & Communication The circulation system of the city was expected to follow a grid-iron pattern. For the location of transport nagars/ sites, the Bypass and the Delhi-Mathura Road adjoining the industrial area were considered the most appropriate. Accordingly, provision was made in sectors 20-A, 27-D, 59, 61, and 67 and near the village Movai opposite sector 87 for six transport Nagars/ sites, primarily to act as intermediate facilities. The total area proposed, including the area under roads, is 15.54 sq.km. which is about 9.9 percent of the proposed urbanisable area.
32 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Major Open Spaces An area of 12.95 sq.km./ 3199 acres was proposed under this use. Of this, a large extent of area was proposed in the form of a 100 m wide green belt along the eastern side of the Agra Canal and along the expressway and the bypass. Additionally, another 500 m wide belt on the eastern side of the proposed alignment of bypass was provided for regional recreational facilities like amusement parks and tourist complexes.
by HUDA/ FCA. Since most of the private developments are outside the MCF area, these private developers apply for building permission in HUDA/ FCA. As earlier pointed out in the section on Institutional Mechanism there is a clear example of multiplicity of role play in this activity. Like, buildings developed in HUDA administered areas follow the HUDA (Erection of Buildings) Regulations, 1979 and such areas after any transfer to MCF administration will have to comply with the Building Regulations provided in Chapter XIV of HMCA. It also needs mention that the Building Regulations provided in Chapter XIV of HMCA are not comprehensive. So also are the Building Regulations provided in the annexures to the DP prepared for MCF and FCA.

than 9000 such units are estimated to exist within residential sectors. While these are nonhazardous, consultations with citizens revealed that a large number of these are causing noise pollution. A mix of residential and industrial uses is not acceptable by any planning norm; hence this issue would require attention when the Development Plan is taken up for revision.
34 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Institutional duplication of efforts While the Town & Country Planning Department prepares the Development Plan, the implementation of the same involves many agencies like HUDA, HHB, HSIIDC and private developers. However, in this entire process, MCF is left with no role in either the actual preparation of the plan or the implementation of the plan itself. The developed sectors are transferred to MCF by HUDA/ private developers for maintenance purposes, that too after five years. This goes against what has been envisaged in the 74th CAA for town planning as this function is to be completely devolved to MCF. Also, the current situation has deprived MCF of major revenues that can accrue from land development. Potentials Faridabad shows adequate potential to accommodate future population additions, indicating prospects of large-scale real estate activity in the near future. The city also boasts of an extensive green belt, which could induce large sections of population to reside in Faridabad. Challenges The town planning function is yet to be devolved on MCF, against what has been envisaged in the 74th CAA. This presents a major challenge for MCF, implementing the Development Plan proposals in the true sense. Bringing in uniformity in the provisions of building byelaws of all planning-related agencies like HUDA and MCF is a necessity. There is a need to adopt a high-rise, high-density policy for residential areas and a Flatted Factory policy for industrial areas, to better serve and accommodate the future additions. The present DP will complete its tenure in 2011, thereby necessitating a revision of the Plan. The same needs to be taken up through GIS-based systems.

HSPCB/ Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) carried out Ambient Air Quality (AAQ) monitoring of the parameters of SPM, SO2 and NOx in Faridabad as part of the National Ambient Air Quality Monitoring program (NAAQM). Monitoring is being carried out year-to-year at two locations near the Escorts Medical Centre, which is an industrial location, and near the regional office in Sector 9, which is a residential location.

The results of NAAQM, as presented in the table above, indicated that suspended particulate matter (SPM) levels are critically high in residential and industrial areas; SO2 and NOx emissions are within comfortable levels. SPM levels are, however, subject to major seasonal variations and locational factors. During the summers for instance, SPM levels are reported to be much higher than normal; during the monsoons, they dip to very low levels. The high level of SPM in residential areas, which is observed to be increasing year after year, is mainly due to the unrestricted movements of heavy vehicles in the residential areas of the city. The above mentioned is also corroborated by the recent survey of ambient air quality at select locations as part of the rapid Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) conducted in 2005 for the proposed solid waste disposal site. As can be observed in the table below, SPM levels have been above the critical mark at all locations except at Pali Village. Table 9. Ambient Air Quality in Faridabad city at other locations

It may also be observed from the table above that the carbon monoxide (CO) levels are above permissible limits at one location, i.e., the municipal auditorium in NIT which is also the central business district of NIT.
As per the CPCB norms for inland surface water, COD above 10 is highly polluted, DO less than 4 is critical and BOD must ideally be 3. The figures above presented indicate that the waters of Badhkal Lake can be classified under CPCB class C. It was also observed in the study that the lake waters were not clear and that a significant amount of worship material is being thrown into its waters. . Table 11.

An analysis of the Boron content, TDS and pH value of the ground waters at various locations, mentioned in the table, indicate that the ground water in the region is largely free from pollution and the baseline data is well within the prescribed limits for primary water quality criteria issued by CPCB. Ground water quality hence can be classified as A Accordingly also is the water supply system in the city where ground water is drawn and supplied without any conventional treatment however after disinfection by chlorination.

The present industrial water demand is about 20 MLD and the same is expected to reach 100 MLD in another 20 years owing to the growth of the industry. For this large quantum of industrial water supply, the generation of waste water would be equally large and the absence of common treatment facilities (from economic point of view) of these wastewaters is clearly felt in the wake of the large scale pollution of the river Yamuna. Apart from the above mentioned other aspects leading to degradation of urban environment in the city of Faridabad like, inadequate sanitation and drainage systems; inefficient waste management practices etc are discussed under such respective section.
For the majority of the poor in the city, the only concern is security of land tenure, quality of housing, and access to basic infrastructure.
City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
If other parameters of urban poverty like housing, access to better sanitation facilities and capability to function in society are considered, then almost all slum dwellers can be categorized as the urban poor.
The majority of the slums are concentrated at critical locations like along the alignment of the Badarpur bypass, the entire area between Old Faridabad and G.T. Road, and several lands acquired by HUDA for residential and industrial purposes. Table 12. Slums in Faridabad

Slum Survey, 2001 &Estimates
The earlier attempts of MCF, HUDA and the District Administration towards removing the encroachments on important and critical lands like the railway lands, and along major regional roads of the city have not yielded the desired results due to various injunctions and interim relief offered by various civil courts. In view of the above, the Honourable High Court of Haryana has given directions to frame a scheme for proper rehabilitation of the old occupants of those slum locations, which are proposed for encroachment removal. In this context, JNNURM is considered to be providing the right opportunity. Access to basic services and amenities in slums The slum survey earlier conducted has only listed the numbers of slums and the population residing in them; it did not evaluate the availability of services in each slum location. No other specific survey has been conducted on the slums in the city. However, information as available in the form of stakeholder consultations has been analysed to understand the access of slum dwellers to basic services, primarily water supply and sanitation. It also needs mention that Govt. of Haryana has ordered a stop vide Memo No. 439(30)/8081/G.II dated 21-07-1997 on providing any civic amenities to unauthorised jhuggi clusters residing on rehabilitation lands. This applies to majority of the slum locations in the city and hence this Government notification applies to all. This is also the reason for absolute lacking of civic amenities in most of the slums.
39 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Of the total 765 and odd Public Stand Posts (PSP) and 515 hand pumps in the city, an estimated 425 PSPs and half the number of hand pumps are made available by the authorities in the slums,
amounting to about 215 persons per public stand post and hand pump. While this indicator itself suggests an uncomfortable living condition, it is reported that this situation is not uniform. While some slum locations have piped water supply and some have public stand posts, the rest and a majority of them lack any such facility. With respect to sanitation, of the total 734 seats of public conveniences in the city, about 410 are located in the slums as part of 24 complexes. Per person availability of seats of public convenience is 359, which represents a far from comfortable situation. This also indicates the general inadequacy of basic services to slum dwellers in the city.
The network of roads in the city runs to a length of 1218 km. This includes the 80 Km of NH, SH and PWD roads. The total length of roads under MCFs maintenance is 1138 km., of which 840 km. is of BT surfacing, 48 km. has cement concrete surface and 250km. are of gravel with brick on edges. Table 13.

41 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Road condition 79 percent of the roads in the city are surfaced; the per-capita road length as on date is 0.96 metres, which is relatively better in comparison to other peer cities with similar population and size. However this is against only 80 percent of the developed area within MCF limits and newly developing and peripheral areas towards the west lacking absolutely in terms of proper road connectivity. The average width of roads in the city is 6.66 metres.
Due to rapid development in economic, industrial and commercial activities, there has been an enormous increase in traffic plying on the city roads. Also, due to delay in the execution of the bypass road, the NH2 other main arterial roads are privy to local and regional traffic. The high volume of traffic, mainly heavy traffic related to the industries located in and around the city, also causes damage to the road surface. From the geographical point of view, the Delhi-Agra rail line passes through the length of the city and divides Faridabad into two vertical sections. NH 2 runs along the rail line. This geographical situation necessitates a greater number of road over bridges (ROBs) in the city to cross the railway line and avoid traffic congestion at railways crossings. At present, there are only three ROBs across the rail line, the most widely used being the Neelam ROB, which is constantly congested. ROB Neelam BridgeNH 2 Rail Bata Bridge to Delhi
Against the available road length of 1218 km. within the MCF limits, the average spacing of streetlight poles works out to about 55 meters, which rates well below the norm of 30 meters indicating the gross inadequacy of the system. However, this condition is not uniform.. The inadequacy is mainly observed in the newly developing areas, unauthorized colonies and slum locations and to an extent in the residential sectors adjoining the industrial estates.
of travel pattern and traffic movements due to the dynamics of travel/ trips generated within NCR and between Delhi and Faridabad. A systematised study in that direction is necessary to assess the ground situation. By comparison, the movement patterns presented in the Regional Plan, 2021 of NCR indicate that public transport commands majority share at 72 percent of the trips generated in the NCR, while private vehicles constitute 28 percent of the trips. It was also observed that within NCR, trips during the morning peak hours are destined for NCT-Delhi; during evenings, the opposite is observed. This clearly indicates the nature of travel within NCR. People prefer to use Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) bus service as mode of public transport for long-distance movements within NCR and most of these trips are office and work-related. Faridabad is also one such location within NCR from where a large number of work-related trips are generated and which typically end in NCT-Delhi. As per the NCR Regional Plan 2001, only 6.4 percent of the total traffic movements between Delhi-Faridabad were accounted for by buses or public transportation. A staggering 71 percent was accounted for by the passenger vehicles/ private vehicles. In terms of generation of passenger traffic for Faridabad, 52 percent of passenger traffic is accounted by buses followed by private vehicles at 35 percent. That is against significant numbers of passenger traffic generation by buses, the availability in umbers of public transport systems are less and inadequate. This is also signified by the per-capita trip rate generation of bus passengers at 0.046 against 0.031 by vehicle passengers. Travel Characteristics While the preferred mode of travel (motorised) in Faridabad is two-wheelers, the predominant number of trips undertaken in the city are understood to be pedestrian in nature followed by cycling. Further, the estimated numbers stage carriers and contract carriers and limited numbers of seven-seaters that form the public transport system of the city, which ply the roads on a given day not even account for 1 percent, indicating that people travel in congestion within the available modes of transport/ travel. In the absence of organised public transport system, apart from stage carriers, auto rickshaws are the other mode of travel. Alternatively, the numbers of two-wheelers plying on city roads is understood to constitute about 70 percent of the total vehicles and four-wheelers about 20 percent.
43 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
This situation also clarifies the observed shift in the travel mode in Faridabad from public transport to personal transport and the high growth in the numbers of two-wheelers. This is however against a lot of vehicles registered in Delhi observed to be moving in Faridabad indicating the situation to be much worse. Public Transport/ Mass Transit The NCR Regional Plan 2001 has projected a trip rate of 0.036 for vehicle passengers and 0.034 for public transport for Faridabad that is 25856 vehicle passenger trips per day and 85224 public transport trips to be catered to through an efficient public transport system in the city. The projected passenger trips for public transport at 85224 trips also signify the need for MRTS system of public transport in the city. Also the NCR Regional Plan 2021 has indicated major proposals for public transportation like development of the Regional Rail Transit System (RRTS), extension of the MRTS system to Faridabad and linking with RRTS, development of the Orbital Rail Corridor etc all to be implemented by 2011. These proposals have been discussed in ensuing section on NCR Proposals. However till date, the city continued to be devoid of any organised public transport system.
The public transport system in the city at present comprises stage carriers and seven- seaters, which ply the city roads and transport commuters to various required destinations. In the absence of an organised public transport system, urban mobility is made possible through transport and non-transport modes. The transport mode includes tempo passengers (seven-seaters), threewheelers, auto-rickshaws, mini-buses, and taxis. Private transport modes include two-wheelers, cars, and jeeps. Since public transport is not organized to provide quality and dependable service to all sections of the public and in all directions of the city, increasing acquisition of and dependence on personal transport vehicles meet the gap. This has resulted in on-street parking of the stage carriers and seven-seaters, which contribute to the congestion of the main roads, slow movements of vehicles and increasing air pollution. Traffic Management and Circulation Majority of the road network in the city is grid-iron pattern with sufficient road widths and pose little problems with respect to traffic management. The road network primarily has arterial roads and internal roads. Major issues with respect to traffic management are restricted to the core of the old areas of Faridabad and Ballabgarh where the network is organics and narrow and the NH 2. NH 2 carries maximum traffic plying in the city of Faridabad. This comprises both the city traffic, NCR traffic as well as the regional traffic. Due to lack of alternate parallel corridors to NH 2 it has virtually become the spine of traffic movements of the city. Trips generated in the city have either the origin or destination as NH 2. This is also due to concentration of major commercial and institutional areas along NH 2 and lack of any alternate city business districts CBD). This presents a clear case of lack of integration between land use and transportation. Further the Delhi-Agra broad gauge rail line also runs parallel to the NH 2 and the linkages across the rail line between the eastern and western areas is another major issue from traffic management perspective. The present available connectors are only three numbers of ROBs for a linear city of length about 18 Km. For this length the three ROBs are inadequate and necessitates the need for more connecting ROBs across the rail line. One near the Ballabagrh Railway station close to Bata factory would be of priority.
44 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Also to mention is the NCR proposal for widening of the length of NH 2 in Faridabad to expressway standards. Such widening will need to propose adequate service roads so as to segregate the regional traffic and city traffic. Further there is also a proposal for a 4 lane elevated road connecting Delhi-Faridabad near Badarpur which would primarily reduce the load on NH 2 entering Faridabad. The proposals while are in the right direction and will possibly solve majority of traffic problems associated with NH 2 in Faridabad, initiation of the same for planned completion before 2011 is important. Parking Organised on-street parking facilities are provided only in select locations in the city, primarily due to lack of space for MCF to provide such facilities. As earlier mentioned, DP proposals are restricted to overall planning and independent sectors are planned by the respective developer (MCF/ HUDA, private developers etc) provision for parking spaces is lost out in the process. This again spells out the lacking integration between land use and transportation planning. Parking lots at present are provided by MCF at 8 locations in the city for two-wheelers and fourwheelers. Lack of sufficient parking lots and organised on-street parking facilities has resulted in haphazard and unorganised parking on most stretches of commercial roads in the city. NCR Transport proposals
As per NCR regional plan the modal split is in favour of public transport system and it estimates that the modal split will increase to 82 percent by 2025 due to the extension of MRTS facility into outside NCT-Delhi areas. The regional plan 2021 of NCR has proposed to develop NCR through four policy zones: 1) NCT-Delhi 2) Central NCR Zone 3) Highway Corridor Zone, and 4) Rest NCR Zone. The regional plan proposes to maximize the opportunities in the CNCR zone of which Faridabad-Ballabgarh is also a part. The plan proposes to assist the CNCR towns in competing with NCT-Delhi in terms of employment generation, economic activities, transport systems, housing, social infrastructure, environment, etc. Accordingly, the Transport Plan 2021 for NCR has further given the following proposals involving Faridabad-Ballabgarh and to be implemented in the first phase during 2001-11. Proposal to develop NH 2 from Delhi to Ballabgarh to expressway standards. All CNCR towns are proposed to be connected through peripheral expressways, of which the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) western peripheral expressway and the Kundli-GhaziabadPalwal (KGP) eastern expressway are located closest to Faridabad-Ballabgarh.

4.5.4 Issues, Potential and Challenges in roads, street lighting and transport sectors
Key Issues Entry and mix of regional traffic on city roads: For want of a bypass road to Faridabad, the vehicular traffic is compelled to pass through the city. Due to this, there is tremendous traffic congestion on important roads of the city, primarily the NH 2. While this issue has been tackled partially by the formation of the FaridabadSurajkund-Delhi expressway, the NCR proposals for a western peripheral expressway and an eastern peripheral expressway need to be implemented at the earliest (the same were proposed for implementation in the first phase during 2001-11). Lack of appropriate and efficient road infrastructure: While road connectivity within the developed areas of the city is good, the infrastructure is below standard. Inadequate grade separation and poor surface quality are leading to travel delays, congestion and pollution. Appropriate safety and visibility enhancement parameters like signage, markings, channel islands, street name boards and other street furniture are absent on the majority of roads. Major roads lack footpaths and pedestrian facilities; those available are encroached upon by informal activities and street hawkers. Lack of an integrated traffic and transportation system Except for a few major intersections in the city, the rest lack cohesion with road geometry, necessitating an integrated traffic and transport system. Also, the mixing of traffic owing to the lack of lane separators and unabated parking on the main roads and intersections is predominant. The capacity of many intersections has thus been exhausted. Many areas, and mainly the core areas of the city in NIT and Ballabgarh, are experiencing parking problems, low-speed travel, increased congestion, and worsening air quality. Lack of coordination between land use and transportation systems; Land use planning of the city has been largely restricted to the residential, commercial and industrial areas of the city; the most important function of transportation systems has been ignored. The lack of truck terminals and planned arterial ring roads/ bypasses is precipitating a
high degree of unwanted freight movement and parking inside the city. The major fallout is the degradation of the environment by oil and waste discharges from the trucks and heavy vehicles along major roads. Lack of an efficient public transport system: Presently, Faridabad city does not have an organised public transport system, except for the extension of Delhi Transport Services to the Badarpur border of Delhi-Faridabad, which caters to the transport needs of Faridabad only to an extent. The city within is entirely dependent on autorickshaws and stage carriers for urban mobility. The fallouts of an ineffective public transport system are visible in the form of traffic snarls, congestion on roads and roadsides, increase in pollution, accidents, etc.
46 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Potential presented by urban transport The regional plan proposals of NCR towards improving regional connectivity between the CNCR cities of Faridabad, Gurgaon, Ghaziabad and Sonepat reveal the potential for sustenance of the present and potential industrial/ commercial and residential activities in the CNCR cities. NCR proposals for the extension of metro rail to Faridabad will also enhance the citys potential for attracting large-scale investments. Challenges for the urban transport In line with the proposed improvements in the regional connectivity of Faridabad, the city also needs to improve its internal connectivity, mainly between the eastern and western areas. Early implementation of the proposed KMP western peripheral expressway, up-gradation of NH 2 from Delhi-Ballabgarh to expressway standards, widening of the Gurgaon-Faridabad road, etc. present a clear challenge for the implementation agencies. There is a need for an integrated road, traffic and transportation plan for Faridabad and its surroundings in line with the proposals of NCR. Demand-Gap analysis, Infrastructure requirements and Investment needs are presented in the Chapter 5, City Investment Plan, Strategies and Implementation plan.
alternative and reliable source of water to augment the present per capita supply and to keep pace with the projected population of 28 lakhs by 2031. MCF has privatized the operation and maintenance of all the tube wells supply water to the city. The private operator has provided for a centralized monitoring system for the same whereby he exercises control over the hours of operation of the tube wells.

There are 22 ground level storage reservoirs (GLSR) fitted with boosting stations. The total capacity of the GLSRs is 54.55 ML, which is 23 percent of the installed capacity of the water supply system. These GLSRS are located across the city in line with the location of the tube wells. The distribution system in the city is based on the division of the entire city into primarily three zones - Old Faridabad, Ballabgarh and NIT. These zones are sub-divided into various sectors/ colonies (mentioned above) for further distribution. Each such sub-division is catered to by an elevated service reservoir of 1 lakh gallon (4.55 ML) capacity. The water supply system, location of the tube wells, GLSRs and ESRs are also presented in the figure below.
48 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
There are in all 25 ESRs. The total capacity of the ESRs is 11.37 ML, which is just about 5 percent of the installed capacity of water supply of 240 MLD. Ideally, it is necessary to have
1/3rd of the installed capacity as elevated storage for intermittent supply systems as in Faridabad. The location of the ESRs zone-wise is presented in the table below. The total length of the distribution system in Faridabad is 910 km. The network includes CI, AC and PVC pipes which range from 90 mm to 300 mm in diameter. Against the available road length of about 1218 km., the distribution network covers only 75 percent of the road length indicating a fair coverage of the city through the service. Table 16.

The demand collection balance (DCB) statement presented in Table 18 indicates that the average collection efficiency is 68 percent of the total demand. Arrears account for 29 percent of the total demand. The current demand for the year 2005-06 is Rs. 786 lakhs, which works out to an average of Rs. 61 user charge, per connection per month. The number of persons per house
service connection stands at twelve, against an average household size of 4.9, indicating scope for the presence of a large number of unauthorized connections. Table 18. Water Charges Demand Collection Balance Statement

The presence of unauthorized connections is also signified by the poor cost recovery on the service. It is assessed that the average revenue per connection per month is about Rs. 74 against an average expenditure of Rs. 98 indicating a cost recovery of about 76 percent. Ideally, the entire operation & maintenance (O&M) expenses are expected to be recovered in the form of user charges. Further, this is against privatisation of O&M of all the tube wells in the city and very minimal O&M expenses on water supply operations.
51 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
This clearly points out at very low revenues from the sector that is comparatively low user charges and hence lesser demand and further crippled by collection performance in the range of 70 percent.

Increasing numbers of tiny industrial service units being set up in the residential sectors leading to inequitable supplies Unaccounted-for water and high transmission and distribution losses. Transmission and distribution losses in the system account for more than 15% of gross supply thereby making the
net supply average at 150 lpcd (This includes all uses including industrial, horticultural, and commercial) against an estimated requirement of more than 330 lpcd. Non-comprehensiveness of the system in terms of design - Each individual distribution sector is independent of the overall system and is linked to that sectors specific GLSR and ESR only. Potential The service has the potential to involve the private sector in the current format to bring in efficiency. Challenges The system is highly dependent on ground water. In the absence of alternate sources, it is beset by the challenges of 1) Reduced ground water availability; 2) Increasing demand; and 3) New sources The system lacks a comprehensive design for the entire city as a whole, necessitating a master plan. Service coverage is reported to be very low at about one lakh odd house connections against more than two lakh households, indicating a large quantum of non-revenue water and consequently, poor cost recovery.

The present quantum of sewerage generated in the city is understood to be in the range of 200 MLD which is approximately 80 percent of the water supply. To convey this sewerage to various intermediate and main pumping stations for treatment purposes, there is a sewerage network of about 638 km. covering 52 percent of the total road network of the city. This however, doesnt present the true picture of system coverage, as the road network in the city itself is falling short of requirement.

It is further observed that the colonies developed in the recent past and approved by the State Government do not have any sewerage system in place. Sewage from houses are being discharged in septic tanks and the effluent is passed either into soak pits or into surface drains creating hazardous and unhygienic conditions in these approved colonies.
4.7.2 YAP
The Yamuna Action Plan (YAP) is the targeted project to contain the pollution of the river Yamuna and consequently the river Ganga. YAP (Phase-I): The project duration for YAP-I after extension is completed in March 2003. In Haryana, the project initially covered six towns including Faridabad; later, an additional six towns were added to the list. The key concern of the YAP was the pollution arising from the domestic sector and it was accorded the highest priority. All the works proposed under YAP-I have been completed. In continuation to Phase I, works related to sewerage and sanitation were taken up under the YAP extended phase. Under the YAP I program, schemes undertaken were:
Sewerage schemes consisting of Interception and diversion sewers and Sewage Treatment Plants Non-sewerage schemes that included Crematoria, Low Cost Sanitation, bathing ghats (or river front development), afforestation and public participation. YAP (Phase II): Works on Phase II of YAP for augmentation of the sewerage system have been approved, but are yet to start. The same are expected to be commissioned by 2007-08. YAP-II has been formulated at an estimated cost of Rs. 624 crore (with financial assistance of Yen 13.33 billion from JBIC). The principal objective of YAP-II is to improve the water quality of Yamuna along the cities located on its banks.

In addition to the technical component, YAP-II will also address a program of capacity building of implementing agencies in the states of Haryana, Delhi and U.P. and the executing agency i.e. National River Conservation Department (NRCD) of Ministry of Environment and Forest (MoEF). Public participation and awareness activities in the project areas, and the water quality management program planned to assess the efficacy of the project will receive special focus. In Haryana, YAP-II under NRCP will be implemented in six towns, viz. Yamuna Nagar-Jagadhari, Karnal, Panipat, Sonepat, Faridabad, and Gurgaon.
However, MCF has employed 750 conservancy workers on a daily wages basis. Thus on an average each conservancy worker is responsible for seeping 621 meters. of road length.
For the purposes of secondary collection as well as for transportation to the disposal sites, MCF uses a fleet of 51 tractors with trolleys, three tempos, four BRCs and two DLDPs. The total
capacity of the vehicles being put to service is 209 MT which is about 44 percent of the waste generated. These vehicles carry out on an average more than three trips per day. Against a density factor of 0.35 and an average of three trips per vehicle per day, the collection capacity of the conservancy vehicles with MCF is only 86 percent of waste generation, indicating a shortfall. There are at present five numbers of dumping sites which are temporary in nature. These are located at: Kheri Road Basalwa Dairy site, Old Faridabad BLB near Ucchagaon Nagla Enclave, NIT Faridabad Near Badarpur Border behind Samshan Ghat Gurgaon road in the revenue estate of village Bhakari (now also proposed as the landfill site) No scientific method of disposal is followed and the waste is dumped on open ground. About 147 acres of land would be required to cater to the needs of the population of the year 2031. MCF presently has identified 58.6 acres of hilly land on the Faridabad-Gurgaon road for municipal solid waste disposal and treatment and has got a rapid environmental impact assessment (EIA) conducted for the site. The results indicated suitability of the site for sanitary landfill; the design for the same is in progress.
Potential The service has the potential to involve the private sector and increase efficiency. Challenges The system will need major refurbishment and augmentation as all the newly-added areas are lacking completely in MSW infrastructure. The city also needs to acquire a large fleet of vehicles and dumper placers to effectively implement the MSW Rules, 2000 and make the city a clean place. Infrastructure development for sanitary landfill and composting at the proposed site will need to be completed in the next two years. Demand-Gap analysis, Infrastructure requirements and Investment needs are presented in the Chapter 5, City Investment Plan, Strategies and Implementation plan.
As Faridabad City is a hub of manufacturing industries, fire is the major man-made disaster to which the citys industrial base is prone. The fire department of MCF is responsible for responding to this kind of a disaster. Presently, a staff of 55 people is working in the fire department in three shifts with six fire tenders. Four fire stations, located at various places in the city, cater to the needs of the MCF area. In addition to these, certain large industries have their own fire services. The department during interactions has clearly made a point with respect to the inadequacy of the system in the city in terms of available staff or equipment to tackle with any potential for occurrence of large scale fire accident due to large numbers of high rise buildings coming up in the city.

The city houses a number of slums, markets, high-rise buildings and large industrial estates and small industrial units which dot the entire landscape of the residential sector. Given this, the existing fire stations and staff are inadequate to meet the current demand and to cater to the growing population of the city. The system lacks even the wireless system of communication tools. The number of fire calls/ rescue calls received by the four fire stations of MCF during the past five years is presented in the table below. It is observed that the numbers have been on the rise and constantly increasing. The numbers have increased from 366 during 2001-02 to 470 during 2003-04 and 488 during 2004-05. During 2005-06 a total of 624 calls were registered and responded to.

As per the norms laid down by the Standing Fire Advisory Council, the current MCF area will require at least 12 fire stations with minimum technical staff, including a well-equipped central fire station with facilities like a parade ground, a full-fledged workshop, training halls and residential facilities. An area of two acres would be required for the setting up of the central
station. The department also needs more specialised equipment like hydraulic platforms, fire trailers, rescue vans, ambulances and mortuary vans. Issues with respect to fire services Inadequate infrastructure to cater to current and future demand Shortfall of equipment and a spacious central fire station Lack of adequate technical manpower Narrow roads in slums and densely populated areas like markets for the movements of fire tenders Increasing number of high-rise buildings and the lack of capacity of the fire brigade to reach upper floors
The area to be developed under the remaining 162 lands is 432,542 sq.km. and these are located across the city. 63 such lands are located in Ballabgarh zone and another 25 along the NH 1 and 2. Also, 29 lands are located in sectors 21A, 21B, 21C, 22, 23 and 23A.

MCFs current accounting system is cash-based; income and expenditure heads are maintained on a cash basis. All the expenses towards regular maintenance are treated as revenue expenses, while expenses on new projects are treated as capital expenses. The standing committee exercises strict control over the projects that requires capitalization. Direct expenses are appropriated to the user department. The Corporation accounts can be classified under two major heads, revenue account and capital account. The revenue sources of the Corporation may be broadly classified as internal or operating income and external receipts. Internal income includes receipts from the operations of the Corporation, in the form of taxes, water and sewer charges and fees and charges on other services such as advertisement fee, food and license fee. General heads of internal sources are: General tax and other taxes levied by the Municipal Corporation such as house tax, education, and street and tree tax Income under special acts such as receipts in the form of food and license fee Income from properties rent receipts from lands, buildings, and other properties Income from municipal services such as receipts from water supply charges and fees from other services (health and hospital, public health, etc.) Miscellaneous income heads such as income from investments and sale proceeds External fund sources include revenue grants from State and Central Government, loans and contributions for projects.

Expenditure incurred towards establishment, operation and maintenance of services, as well as repayment of loans are treated as revenue expenditure. Expenditure on asset creation and investments in new projects or purchase of equipment are treated as capital expenditure. Advances, deposits and any item of income or expenditure, which is temporary in nature is treated and accounted for under the extraordinary account. This account head is not analysed as the items in it are temporary in nature and have no impact on the overall financial position of MCF.

It is observed that internal sources contributed about 60 percent of the capital income during the review period; the rest is contributed to by external sources, mainly in the form of projectspecific grants. It is also observed that capital expenditure has been inconsistent during the review period; this trend can be attributed to the availability of revenue surplus. MCF - Capital

Own Sources Own source income includes income from house tax, other taxes and non-tax income in the form of development charges, income from municipal properties, fees & fines and other miscellaneous income. Income from own sources accounts for over 99% of the revenue income, indicating low dependability of MCF on external sources for its operations. The own sources registered an average annual growth rate of about 11 percent. Octroi compensation: In lieu of the abolition of octroi in 1999, the Government of Haryana had compensated during the initial years of the abolition of octroi. However, during the review period, there has been no income in the form of octroi compensation. General Taxes: General taxes consist of various taxes levied as part of house tax; they consist of general tax on properties, fire tax, tree tax and street tax. General tax is charged based as a percentage (2.5 percent for residential and five percent for non-residential) of net Annual Rental Value (ARV). Net ARV is arrived at, based on the capital value of the land and/ or building. The calculation method is presented below. Capital value = Cost of land (as per collector/ revenue guidelines) + cost of bldg (as per PWD (B&R) rates) 1% depreciation per annum on Bldg (subject to a maximum of 50%) Annual rateable Value (ARV) = 5% of capital value Net ARV = ARV 10% of ARV (allowable for maintenance) House tax = 2.5% of net ARV (residential purposes 5% of net ARV (non-residential purposes) Exemptions: - Any property with ARV of less than Rs. 1200 is exempted from paying house tax. - Any new house/ property are exempted from paying house tax for the initial three years.

As can be observed from the table above, the total number of properties in MCFs jurisdiction is 1,86,310. In the state of Haryana, property tax records are updated through a general survey conducted every five years. The last such general survey was conducted during 2003-04 and is again due in 2008-09. During the last revision of records, it was noted that the numbers of properties increased at an annual growth rate of 5.3 percent.
66 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
In MCF, the house tax accounts for about 29 percent of the revenue income and has registered an average annual growth rate of 7 percent. The overall collection performance for the past five years is an average of 46 percent of the total demand including arrears, indicating a large scope for improving collection efficiency. During 2005-06, arrears accounted for 57 percent of the total demand. Table 27. House tax DCB statement

On a comparative note, between various cities in the country,1 the average tax per assessment is relatively low in MCF at Rs. 958. Also, the number of persons per assessment is high at an average of seven indicating scope for identifying un-assessed properties. This however is against the State Governments policy of conducting property roll revision once every five years and not every year as is reflected in the decreasing tax per assessment and increasing persons per assessment after the revision year. It also need mention that in Haryana any new property is exempted from paying tax for the first three years, which need to be re-looked in the context of losing tax revenue. The average household size in MCF being about 4.9 (against the current number of persons per assessment of 6.8) indicates a scope for about 50,000 un-assessed residential properties. The number of current property tax assessments figure includes commercial establishments. Thus, on a conservative estimate, the number of properties to be assessed in Faridabad is likely to be over 2.4 lakhs. Non Tax Revenue: Non-tax sources include all non-tax revenues such as fees and charges levied as per the Haryana Municipal Corporation Act, 1994 and services provided by MCF. These sources include income from building license fee, development charges, trade licence fee,

The nontax income of MCF accounts for about 61 percent of its revenue income and has registered a average growth rate of 10 percent CAGR less than growth rate of the total revenues. The majority of non-tax income is generated by duty on sale/ transfer of properties at 19 percent of total revenues, followed by fees from HUDA at 12 percent (which is received in lieu expenditure incurred for the facilities maintained by MCF in HUDA administered sectors) Income from sale of water in the form of user charges also contributed 12 percent of the revenues during the review period. The demand collection balance (DCB) statement for water charges and cost recovery on the service is discussed in section 4.6. External Sources External sources mainly include grants from local funds and grants from the State and the Central Government. All external sources together account for about only one percent of MCFs revenue income. The growth of these income sources is inconsistent owing to the unrealistic nature of these sources. During the review period, these sources showed a decline of 11 percent. Revenue Expenditure The revenue expenditure of MCF has been analyzed, based on expenditure heads. These have been broadly classified into the following department/sections of MCF - general administration & tax collection, water supply, roads & drains, municipal works, conservancy, street lighting, town planning and the miscellaneous like gardens and libraries.
Revenue expenditure is further classified under establishment (mainly comprising salaries and wages); contingencies (O&M) and debt servicing. The application of funds by account head is presented in Table 28, which indicates that the overall revenue expenditure registered an average annual growth of 11 percent against the growth in revenue income by 11 per cent. This trend indicates that MCF needs to take measures to reduce its expenditure or enhance its resources to avoid a deficit situation in future. Table 28. Application of funds by head of Account

The establishment expenditure alone accounts for over 88 percent of revenue expenditure. In terms of revenue income spent on salaries, it is 56 percent, which is well above the reasonable range of 40 percent. O&M expenditure accounts for just about seven percent of the total revenue
expenses, clearly showing that municipal services do not have any preventive or periodic maintenance plans in place. MCF - Items of Expenditure7%88%5%Salaries, Allowances& PensionOperation

A salient feature of the accounts of MCF is that the Corporation has been regularly servicing its debt commitments. Its expenditure towards debt servicing at present is low at barely five percent of its revenue expenditure, indicating the scope for further leveraging of its resources to implement large-scale projects. Establishment expenditure Establishment expenditure accounts for an average 88 percent of revenue expenditure and registered an annual growth rate of over nine percent during the review period. Conservancy and water supply departments account for the maximum share of establishment cost at 31 and 28 percent respectively, followed by the general administration and tax collection department at 12 percent and engineering department comprising roads, drains and municipal works also at 12 percent (refer to Table 29).

Operation and maintenance expenditure As earlier mentioned the O&M expenses of the corporation doesnt follow any preventive or periodic maintenance plans and are day-to-day in nature and hence reflected by the very low O&M expenses of an average Rs. 3 Crores per annum. This is against handling of all core municipal services like water supply, sewerage, drainage, roads, solid waste management etc by MCF itself. Within the total O&M expenses, more than 66 percent is spent on general administration, followed by 24 percent on conservancy/ solid waste management. Water supply operations accounted for about four percent and roads for about three percent of the expenses. During FY2005-06, the total O&M expenses of the Corporation were Rs. 287 lakhs. During the review period, O&M expenses have increased by just about three percent CAGR. MCF - O&M

Debt servicing and outstanding loans The review of annual accounts reveal that debt servicing expenses account for about five percent of the revenue expenditure. In terms of revenue income, only three percent is spent on debt servicing against an accepted comfortble limit of about 25-30 percent. The review of the outstanding loan statement of MCF, as on 31st March 2006, reveals that the net outstanding debt liabilities of MCF stand at Rs. 10.26 crores, which is 57 percent of its property tax demand. The ratio of outstanding debt liabilities to the ARV is about 0.02 against a threshold of two considered by financial institutions. This indicates MCFs potential to leverage its resources to mobilise debt funds for the implementation of large-scale projects. Table 30. Outstanding Debt Liability

Further, of the total outstanding loan of Rs. 10.26 crores, Rs. 9.6 crores is outstanding against the loan of Rs. 16 crores, received from National Capital Region Planning Board (NCRPB) during 2002-03 towards capital works in water supply. The tenure of repayment of this loan is five years; the repayment is scheduled to be completed by 2007-08. All other outstanding loans of MCF is less than Rs. 0.5 crore against loans received from the Government of Haryana and LIC for various water supply works during 1981 to 1995. It needs mention that these old loans are of high interest rate loans of 12 percent as compared to the current market rates. Hence, MCF needs to swap these loans with low-cost funds. Though the savings might appear comparatively small, this option needs to be explored.

The figure presented in Table 31 indicates that about 68 percent of MCFs capital expenditure during the review period is met from its capital receipts. The rest is contributed to by the revenue/ municipal surpluses. On an average, over the past five years, the majority of capital expenditure has been directed towards water supply and roads. Water supply system augmentation through the utilisation of the NCRPB loan has been the major capital expenditure item at 45 percent of the total capital investment for the past five years. Construction of new roads and improvement of surface condition of important city roads accounted for a significant 31 percent of the investments. Apart from these, other major investments have been in the street lighting sector which accounted for 11 percent of the total investment. While the results of the improvements in roads and lighting in the city are visible, other sectors like drains and conservancy did not receive any major investments during the review period. Capital works towards providing amenities to the residents of unauthorised slum dwellers has been stopped since 1997, in the light of Memo No. 439 (30)/8081/G.II dated 21-07-1997 of the Government of Haryana, restricting any such provision. Accordingly, it is observed that capital expenditure towards improvement of facilities in slums accounted for just about one percent of the total investments during the review period.

The following key issues emerged from the above analysis of the municipal finances of MCF; MCFs financial soundness is revealed by the financial indicators presented in Table 32. Both revenue income and expenditure are growing at a similar rate, indicating no change in the financial condition of MCF from 2001 to 2006. Over 55 percent of the revenues of the Corporation are accounted for by establishment/ salary expenses. This results in extremely low or minimal expenses towards the maintenance of capital assets of MCF, indicating the urgency for improving MCFs revenues. While non-tax revenues are significant at 61 percent of the revenues, the tax base needs to be improved and widened to enhance revenues from this stream. The overall collection efficiency of property taxes is about 46 percent against current collections of near 80 percent. This is because the arrears form 57 percent of the total demand and collections of arrears is extremely low.

The cost recovery on water supply service is just about 76 percent, indicating the large quantum of non-revenue water in the form of unauthorised connections, subsidised water, etc. With respect to the sewerage system, the cost recovery is just 13 percent against a very low coverage of the service at just 50 percent of population. Old outstanding loans which have been taken at high interest rates could be swapped or restructured with currently available low-interest and low-cost funds. Capital expenditure per year is of the order of Rs. 46 crores only, as most investments are financed through internal generation and not any external funding, thus causing pressure on available surpluses.

implementation of such projects; these strategies are both investment-oriented and administration-oriented.
The CIP involved the identification of public capital facilities to cater to the demands of the city populace by the year 2011 and 2031 according to their short, medium and long-term infrastructure needs. The project identification has been done through a demand-gap analysis of the services and DPRs available with the MCF. Further, project prioritisation and strategising of the investments/ phasing of investment are based on strategies, listed under each service sector as identified through stakeholder consultations. The projects derived are aimed at ensuring the optimal and efficient utilisation of existing infrastructure systems and enhancing the capacity of the systems/ services to cater to the demands of future population additions. Certain other
projects listed as part of the CIP include developmental projects other than those addressing the core service sectors viz. system modernisation, etc. The CIP and the forecasted future needs for provision of capital facilities under each identified sector are presented below. These assets will help Faridabad to universalise services for the current population as well as accommodate the expected increase in population. In sectors where long-term planning is required (for example, source development for water supply and development of landfill site), the planning horizon till the year 2031 is considered. Assets created in such sectors consider the projected population in this horizon. MCF expects that these infrastructure assets would not only guarantee services to its citizens, but also signal a proactive commitment to potential investors considering the Faridabad region.

The planning horizon for the projects identified in the urban poor/ slums sector is 2011-12. Accordingly, the entire identified investment is proposed for funding by 2011-12 itself. The
planning horizon for the core service sectors of water supply, sewerage, drainage, and solid waste management, land use/ development planning and other projects is 2031; hence, only a part of the identified investment is proposed for funding by 2011-12. Faridabad will need to plan for the remaining identified investment to be funded beyond 2011-12, but before 2021.

As can be observed from the table above, a total 70 percent of the identified investment need is proposed for funding by 2011-12. Urban poor/ slums sector envisages entire investment phasing by 2011-12 itself. From the perspective of sector priorities, urban poor sector is followed by the water supply and sewerage sectors at 69 percent each, street lighting and roads & transport sectors at 68 percent and 67 percent respectively. Drains sector envisage 62 percent of the identified investment by 2011-12 while conservancy sector envisage 47 percent of the identified investment by 2011-12. Within the total investment proposed by 2011-12 for MCF, maximum share is taken by sewerage sector at 23 percent followed by water supply at 21 percent and roads & transport sector at 20 percent. Drains and urban poor sectors account for 13 and 12 percent respectively. Land use/ dev. planning accounts for 4 percent share against part funding by HUDA.
Sector wise details of the CIP, capital facilities identified to be created, supportive actions and implementation aspects/ strategies are discussed in the following sections in detail. Demand-gap assessment leading to various projects identification and costing of the same is presented in Annexure 5 and the summary of capital investment phasing under each sector is presented in Annexure 6.

Long-term needs (2031) Though NCRPB specifies 200 lpcd as the norm, the desired level of per capita supply is proposed at 315 lpcd considering the large industrial demand in Faridabad and estimated industrial demand by 2031. The total quantity of supply required is estimated to be in the range of 896 MLD against the current supply of 240 MLD. Accordingly, treatment capacity and an additional elevated storage of 287 ML capacity is required at 33% of total supply by 2031. The total investment need for water sector by 2031 is estimated at Rs. 62,869 lakhs. However the above mentioned gaps in the system are proposed to be filled in phases in line with the quantum of population addition. Accordingly part of the identified investment is proposed to be funded by 2011-12 to cater to the current gaps and meet the immediate requirements.

Priority needs (2011-12) A sum of Rs. 43,448 lakhs (69% of total investment need in the water supply sector) is the capital cost estimation for the proposed interventions for the augmentation of water supplies through additional rainy wells, improvement of distribution network and provision of additional storage reservoirs by 2011-12. Additional rainy wells, each of 20 MLD capacities, are proposed near Basant Pur, Nasir Pur, Bhaskola and Mohana. While the present ground water extract requires disinfection only, MCF proposes to have a treatment facility for future extracts from rainy wells as well as ground water. This is in view of the increasing reports of ground water contamination. Hence based on authentic analysis to be conducted by ground water resources/ irrigation department on the quality of ground water and reliability, MCF may act upon providing treatment facilities at an appropriate time. In this CDP
the treatment facilities are proposed during the current plan period and MCF needs to identify locations for proposed treatment plants. Action Plan for Implementation (2006-07 to 2011-12)

Long-term needs (2031) The demand-gap assessment above presented is against an assumed sewerage generation of 80 percent of water supply that is 717 MLD by 2031. Identified investments in the sector are meant to augment the UGD networks in line with the proposed increase in water supply and road network, as well as refurbishments to the existing network and treatment plants. The system plans to cover 70 percent of the population and 85 percent of the road network for efficient service delivery. Construction of public convenience systems in the immediate future to cater to the needs of the urban poor is also envisaged as a part of the sanitation sector. The total investment need for sewerage sector by 2031 is estimated at Rs. 70,200 lakhs. However the above mentioned gaps in the system are proposed to be filled in phases in line with the quantum of population addition and augmentation of water supplies to the town. Accordingly part of the identified investment is proposed to be funded by 2011-12 to cater to the current gaps and meet the immediate requirements. Priority needs (2011-12) A sum of Rs. 48,290 lakhs (69% of total investment need in the sewerage sector) is proposed for sewerage infrastructure by 2011-12 excluding the proposals prepared under YAP-II. Priority capital investments are expected to cater to the current service gap as well the medium-term needs of the estimated population by 2021. Accordingly, additional 744 km. of sewerage network is proposed to be put in place by 2011-12.
Capacity addition of sewerage treatment by 423 ML through new sewerage treatment plants (STPs) is proposed by 2011-12. These would also serve the cause of the river conservation/ YAP-II. Maximum investment is expected to come under YAP-II during the initial years and accordingly investment phasing has been planned for the proposed investment by MCF. Further, MCF will need to plan beyond 2011-12 for further augmentation of capacity by another 179 ML of STPs and about 461 km. of UGD network to cater to the long-term needs of 2031.

Prepare a comprehensive UGD master plan to explore the possibility of the decentralisation of the system of operations for effective service delivery. The planning should take into account 38 villages falling within MCFs limits, and lacking in basic infrastructure. Promote the use of Decentralized Waste Water Treatment Systems (DEWATS) in areas that cannot be served by the centralized system and in appropriate spot locations where the use of DEWATS is beneficial. Plan the UGD system and ensure the location of STPs as anticipated under Yamuna Action Plan II, so that benefits are maximised. Improve and ensure access to sanitary facilities for the urban poor and slum dwellers. Encourage pay & use category of public conveniences with community involvement in the maintenance of the same. Sector Notes The current system of sewerage tariff, based on the number of water closets needs to be reviewed as it is not the correct indicator of the cost of service. Rather, it should be linked with water supply.

Long-term needs (2031) Identified investments based on the demand-gap assessment above presented are meant for the up-gradation of existing un-surfaced roads; new road development; widening and strengthening of major roads; implementation of the public transport system (an appropriate system like bus rapid transits system (BRTS) etc need to be identified), traffic management systems and junction improvements; provision of street lighting, etc. In line with the DP proposal of 9.91 percent of the total city area for transportation and circulation and an average road width of 7 m, a total length of 2303 km. of road network would provide a fair degree of connectivity at an average of 0.96 meters per capita by 2031. Accordingly, an additional 1085 km. of surfaced road networks are proposed to be put in place. Installation of lighting systems on the roads will be in line with new roads development and shall maintain a spacing of not more than 30 metres per light pole. Currently, the intra-city public transport system within Faridabad is of the nature of an intermediate public transport system, supported by privately operated stage carriers and DTC bus service from other locations up to the MCF boundary. In order to improve the public transport system, it is proposed that MCF in conjunction with NCRPB will plan for an appropriate road
based public transport system with dedicated bus lanes for intra-city connectivity; regional connectivity will be ensured through the RRTS/ MRTS as proposed for the NCR region. The CDP has allocated about Rs. 2000 lakhs for the public transport system and another Rs. 25,455 lakhs for the improvement of identified major roads and the construction of ROBs at various critical intersections to achieve an efficient traffic management system. The total investment need for roads, street lighting, transportation and traffic management sectors by 2031 is estimated at Rs. 64,976 lakhs. However the above mentioned gaps in the system are proposed to be filled in phases in line with the area being developed and quantum of population addition. Accordingly part of the identified investment is proposed to be funded by 2011-12 to cater to the current gaps and meet the immediate requirements.
83 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Priority needs (2011-12) A sum of Rs. 46,735 lakhs (76% of total investment need in the roads and transport sector) and Rs. 2465 lakhs (68% of total investment in the street lighting sector) is proposed by 2011-12. Priority capital investments are meant to cater to the current service gaps and medium-term needs of 2021. In addition to CDP investment, it is anticipated that the proposal under the NCR plan will also benefit Faridabad. Also, the proposed KMP western peripheral expressway is expected to improve the circulation pattern of the city and avoid traffic congestion in it. The details of various road improvement proposals are presented in Annexure 6 under service gap assessment. As a long-term strategy, MCF proposes widening/ strengthening and improvement of about 122 km. of important roads of the city along with the construction of four ROBs, of which two would be planned across the railway line. A sum of Rs. 17,587 lakhs is proposed to be invested by 2011-12 on these proposals; this sum includes investment for organizing all utility corridors for better service management. Also, every new road shall be designed to have utility corridors as part of better asset management practice; the cost of this facility is in-built into road improvement cost.

Long-term needs (2031) Identified investments based on the demand-gap assessment above presented are meant for the up-gradation of the existing open network to a closed network and the construction of 1791 km. of new drains to cater to current and future service gaps. The system plans to cover 150% of the road network for service efficiency. The total investment need for drains sectors by 2031 is estimated at Rs. 41,357 lakhs. However the above mentioned gaps in the system are proposed to be filled in phases in line with the road network being developed and quantum of population addition. Accordingly part of the identified investment is proposed to be funded by 2011-12 to cater to the current gaps and meet the immediate requirements. Priority needs (2011-12)
A sum of Rs. 25,560 lakhs (62% of total investment need in the drains sector) is proposed to be invested in storm water drainage by 2011-12. Priority capital investments are meant to cater to the current service gap as well as to the medium-term needs of the proposed storm water drainage network by 2021. The majority of the investment is dedicated to the formation of new networks in un-serviced and newly developed areas of Faridabad. Further, MCF will need to plan beyond 2011-12 for further augmentation of network by another 864 km. in line with new roads to be developed beyond 2011-12, to cater to the long-term needs of 2031.

Long-term needs (2031) The demand-gap assessment above presented indicates generation of 775 MT of waste in the city by 2031 against the current generation of 480 MT at 377 grams per capita per day; the future generation of solid waste is assumed at 2.2% per annum for the first ten years and at a reduced rate of 1.9% per annum and 1.6% per annum for the next two decades. Accordingly, the requirements are planned for the horizon year 2031.
87 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
In addition to the proposed land of about 59 acres for disposal, MCF needs to acquire an additional land of about 88 acres after 2011-12 for future landfill and composting purposes. About 193 tons capacity addition by 2011-12 through increasing fleet size would be required for efficient primary and secondary collection of solid waste. Further, public conveniences mainly to cater to the urban poor and slums in the city are planned for 2011-12 only. It is considered that as a long term measure public conveniences should be discouraged; this is also in line with the considered strategy of making Faridabad a no-slum city. The total investment need for conservancy and sanitation sectors by 2031 is estimated at Rs. 8264 lakhs. However the above mentioned gaps in the system are proposed to be filled in phases in line with the road network being developed and quantum of population addition. Accordingly part of the identified investment is proposed to be funded by 2011-12 to cater to the current gaps and meet the immediate requirements. Priority needs (2011-12) A sum of Rs. 3910 lakhs (47% of total investment need in the sector) is proposed by 2011-12. Priority capital investments are meant to cater to the current service gap and the medium-term needs of 2021. The requirements at the disposal site are planned for the horizon year 2031. Accordingly, infrastructure for land fill and composting is proposed on a total land of 58 acres. Infrastructure development for land fill would be a year-to-year capital expense. In line with these developments, augmentation of vehicle capacity by 193 tons would be required by 2011-12 to meet the current gap and immediate needs. About 300 handcarts are proposed to be acquired; 481 dumper placer bins and 25 dual-loaded dumper placers are proposed to meet the gap by 2011-12. Rs. 829 lakhs is proposed for construction of public convenience systems mainly to cater to the urban poor and slum locations. These would be in the form of 16 seat complex (total 98 units) to be operated on pay & use format. This however is to cater to the present slum population only and not a long term measure as earlier suggested.
Further, MCF will need to plan beyond 2011-12 for further augmentation of vehicle capacity by 75 tons as well as the construction of more intermediate transfer stations in line with the changing land use pattern and waste generation trends, to cater to the long-term needs of 2031.

generated for the same period for MCF. A salient feature of the FOP is that all outstanding dues, including debt and non-debt liabilities, have been taken into account. The accounts data collected between the years 2000-01 and 2005-06 are used as the basis for determining past trends in revenue and expenditure and arriving at appropriate growth assumptions for each income and expense item. After forecasting the revenue account, the capital investments proposed under the CIP are added to the forecast. The FOP is generated to assess the investment-sustaining capacity of these three agencies. The project funding structure comprises grants under the JNNURM framework (accounting for 70 percent of the funding), internal resources and loans. The level of investment that Faridabad can sustain is determined by studying the overall surpluses/ year-to-year opening balance and debt service coverage ratio (DSCR). If the debt service coverage ratio (amount of surplus available to pay interest and to repay principal that is due) falls below 1.25 (i.e. less than 25 % cushion), then the investments are reduced gradually till the DSCR exceeds 1.25 in all the years in the forecast period. The main items of income and expenditure, classified into the revenue account and the capital account, are projected in the FOP under the following categories: Categories of FOP Projections o Revenue Account Receipts: Octroi, Taxes, Non Tax Sources, and Grants, Contribution and Subsidies o Revenue Account Expenditure: Establishment Operation and Maintenance Debt Servicing- Existing and New Loans Phasing of non debt liabilities, and Additional O&M o Capital Income and o Capital Expenditure
o Maintenance of the collection performance of taxes and charges at certain minimum levels for current and for arrears o Borrowings
assets and infrastructure, is translated into debt size and project size (grant component plus debt component) based on certain assumptions regarding interest rate, repayment method and loangrant mix. A spreadsheet FOP model has been customised to depict the financial position of MCF and the investment-sustaining capacity of MCF has been assessed based on the FOP assumptions. The model was used to calculate future surpluses under various scenarios involving combinations of internal revenue improvement, state support, financing terms, etc.

Given the existing financial position of MCF, the revenue and capital accounts of MCF are projected against the growth scenario and assumptions presented above. The FOP is generated from the sustainable investment point of view in line with current growth trends against the identified investment of Rs. 2204 crores at constant prices till 2011-12. The results of the FOP are presented in Annexure 8 and the same is summarised below. MCF receipts are expected to be 2.1 times their current levels by 2011-12 under the projection scenario. The revenue improvement and expenditure control measures, coupled with the availability of grants under the JNNURM framework, takes the investment capacity of MCF to Rs. 758 crores (constant prices) over the next six years against an investment need of Rs. 2049 crores by 2011-12. Thus the investment sustenance capacity of MCF is 37 percent of identified need; this is under the assumption that as stipulated under JNNURM, MCF will contribute 25% of grant received to the State Revolving Fund from 3rd year onwards. In case revolving fund contribution is waived off, the sustainability against the investment need will significantly increase to 65 percent (Rs.1332 crores)
The total investment identified for MCF by 2011-12 is Rs. 2049 crores. It is observed that following the current growth trends (in the absence of any grant funding from JNNURM and associated reforms), MCF can sustain an investment of Rs. 246 crores (constant prices), which is 12 percent of the identified investment till 2011-12. The impact of various revenue improvement and expenditure control measures are assessed in terms of contribution/ addition to this base investment capacity.
110 City Development Plan Municipal Corporation of Faridabad
Only expenditure control measures in the form of energy efficiency measures in all departments of MCF is observed to enhance the investment capacity by Rs. 20 crores which is 8 percent of the base investment capacity. And reforms in property tax like rationalisation of tax structure, identification of unassessed properties, regular revision of property records, improving collection efficiency etc would improve the investment capacity by Rs. 82 crores which is 33 percent of the base investment capacity Investment Capacity (Rs. Crores) in Constant PricesBase Investment
Capacity249Expenditure Controls20 PT Improvements82 Water/ Sewerage reforms246 JNNURM & Reforms512 Base Investment
Also reforms in service provision like part privatisation of maintenance functions in water supply, sewerage, roads, street lighting, and conservancy sectors will increase the investment capacity by Rs. 246 crores, i.e. a significant 100 percent of the base investment capacity. Thus it may also be understood that reforms in service delivery and introduction of privatisation are the prime requirements for MCF to position itself as a better governed and financially sound Corporation. And availability of JNNURM grants and associated reforms in various sectors (property tax revenue enhancement, cost recovery on services, energy efficiency measures, improving governance aspects etc) are observed to contribute significantly to the base investment capacity by Rs. 512 crores that is about 208 percent of base investment capacity. The total investment capacity thus is Rs. 758 crores.
GoH Grants JNNURM 189.53 19% 2 Loan Open Market/FIs 47.28 5% 3 Own sources MCF 280.65 28%
* Of the sustainable investment of Rs. 991.27 crores (current prices), only Rs. 966.28 crores is being proposed under JNNURM and hence the grant figure reflects 67% against the eligible 70%.
In order to improve the sustainability/ investment capacity of MCF to the extent of requirement, it has to execute major revisions in property tax and implement reforms with respect to service delivery aspects as earlier suggested.
