With a view to recast the urban landscape of India and make urban areas more livable and inclusive to drive economic growth in the country, the Government of India recently launched two ambitious projects - Smart City and Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transportation (AMRUT). The purpose of AMRUT is to 1) ensure that every household has access to a tap with assured supply of water and a sewerage connection; 2) increase the amenity value of cities by developing greenery and well maintained open spaces; and 3) reduce pollution by switching to public transport or constructing facilities for non-motorized transport. The Mission is being implemented in 500 cities towns with a population of over 1 lakh.
This webinar discussed the current state of urbanization in India, the various propositions suggested by the government as a part of the AMRUT scheme and the feasibility of this project.

This paper is purely a data compilation of Unified Metropolitan Transport Authority (UMTA) among various cities in India. It describes and compares UMTA of five different Indian cities including Hyderabad, Chennai, Indore, Pune and Jaipur. UMTA acts as an umbrella body that already co-ordinates the entire transport activities of the city are expected to cover more areas under the public transport system. This paper also studies how cities that have constituted UMTA ensures a comprehensive public transport system.

2. Provision of basic services to households and build amenities in cities will improve quality
of life for all.
During 2011 a High Power Expert Committee (HPEC) estimated an amount of 39.2 Lakh
crore for creation of urban infrastructure.
Learnings from earlier Mission have shown that infrastructure creation should have a lot
of impact on real needs of people such as providing tap and toilet connection for
households.
“Focus should be on creation of infrastructure which has a direct link to connect to
provision of better services to the people” - President of INDIA
(on 09-june -2014 and 23-February-2015 at join sessions of Parliament)
3. • Pursuit of better outcomes will not stop by providing taps & sewerage connections to
all.(Universal coverage)
• Other benchmarks will be targeted following a step by step process after achieving
bench mark of universal coverage. Such a gradual process of achieving benchmarks is
“incrementalism”.
• Before: MoUD used to give project by project sanctions
• Now: Replaced by State Annual Action Plan once a year by MoUD and states have to
give sanctions and approval at end.
• States are equal partners in planning and implementation of projects, thus actualizing the
spirit of cooperative federalism.
