Urban Renewal : Policy and Response, Hardback Book

Urban Renewal : Policy and Response Hardback

Edited by Sameer Kochhar

Hardback

Description

The Indian Government took the historic step of launching the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) in December 2005 with a view to give fillip to urban infrastructure development in 65 major cities by mobilising Rs.50,000 crore from the Central budget and by getting a matching Rs.50,000 crore from the State governments and the Urban Local Bodies (ULBs).

The response to JNNURM has been very good. As a consequence, projects costing Rs.95,385 crore have already been sanctioned and are under various stages of implementation.

This book reveals the nuances and thinking behind the JNNURM, its implementation and status on the ground and suggests the way forward.

The current urban reform process undoubtedly offers tremendous opportunities to rethink economic and development priorities.

This book is timely given the re-affirmed commitment of the government to urban development.

It is an essential read for all interested in policy, planning, urban develop-ment and renewal issues.
