JnNURM Guidelines
1. Need for Sub-Mission on Basic Services to the Urban Poor (BSUP) under Jawahar Lal Nehru National Urban Renewal
Mission (JNNURM)
• Rising urban growth has given rise to growth of urban poor.
• Growth of urban poor causes tremendous pressure on urban basic services and infrastructure.
• Urbanization policy/strategy to implement projects in selected cities on mission mode.
2. Mission Statement
• Reforms driven, fast track, planned development of identified cities.
• Focus on efficiency in urban infrastructure/services delivery mechanism, community participation and accountability of Urban
Local Bodies (ULBs) towards citizens.
3. Mission Strategy
• Planned urban perspective frameworks for a period of 20-25 years (with 5 yearly updates) indicating policies, programmes and
strategies of meeting fund requirements would be prepared by every identified city.
• This perspective plan would be followed by preparation of Development Plans integrating land use with services, urban transport
and environment management for every five year plan period. In this context, a City Development Plan (CDP) would be required
before the city can access Mission funds.
• Cities will be required to prepare Detailed Project Reports for undertaking projects under identified areas.
• Private Sector Participation in development, management and financing of Urban Infrastructure would be clearly delineated.
• Funds for identified cities would be released to the designated State Nodal Agency, which in turn would leverage additional
resources from the State Govt, their own funds, funds of implementing agencies and funds from the financial institutions/ private
sector/capital market and External Aid. A revolving fund would be created to take care of operation and maintenance of various
assets created under the Mission.

4. Mission Objectives
• Focused attention to integrated development of Basic Services to the Urban Poor in the cities covered under the Mission.
• Provision of Basic Services to Urban Poor including security of tenure at affordable prices, improved housing, water supply,
sanitation and ensuring delivery through convergence of other already existing universal services of the Government for education,
health and social security. Care will be taken to see that the urban poor are provided housing near their place of occupation.
• Secure effective linkages between asset creation and asset management so that the Basic Services to the Urban Poor created in
the cities, are not only maintained efficiently but also become self-sustaining over time.
• Ensure adequate investment of funds to fulfill deficiencies in the Basic Services to the Urban Poor and Scale up delivery of civic
amenities and provision of utilities with emphasis on universal access to urban poor.
7. Mission Components

EWS Housing standards
• Ground + three R.C.C framed structure
• Four dwelling units on each floor
• Total built-up area of single D.U. is 25 Sq.m (300 sq ft)
• single living room, kitchen, multifunctional room, W.C., washing place and balcony.
• The land cost is not considered as part of total project cost.
• 1,49,596 sq.mt. of land has been covered for 23 sites. The average housing density is 453 D.U.s./Hector (i.e.2265 PPH).
• Basic infrastructure like water supply, drainage, pucca roads and street lights are also provided by Surat Municipal
corporation.
The construction cost of the single dwelling unit was Rs.58, 000/- for the project prior to 26 Jan, 2001. While for the post earthquake
projects, the building design was revised and the construction of single dwelling unit rise to Rs.68, 000/-. Rs. 5,000 per D.U subsidy
is provided by the Government.
These units are sold to these poor people at a very minimal cost at a negligible down payments with beneficial monetary schemes.
These flats costs around Rs.25,000 – Rs.30,000 each or are taken with instalments of Rs.500 per month.

SURAT JNNRUM EWS HOUSING
• There has been lot of migration of slum due to growth in industrial and commercial sectors.
• Scope of employment in trade and business activities, hawking, retailing, carting and other such possibilities have attracted
rural poor to the city.
• There are a total of 312 slums in the city of Surat in which 19.24 percent of the total population the city lives. This figure was
27.5 percent of the city’s population during 1992.
• Slum has decreased due to the effective implementation of various slum re-location and development programmes after the
havoc of the plague in 1994.
• The slums where then bifurcated zone wise where 64% of public land has been encroached upon by slums in the city, with 44
and 20 percent respectively belonging to the corporation and to the government.
• The south zone, followed by the east continues to house the maximum number of slums as well as the maximum slum
population of the city.
• The west and south-west zones have about 20 and 17 percent of their respective populations residing in slums.

Status of Land of Slum settlements:
URBAN POVERTY AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE:
• With the growth of the city economic activities it has attracted 80% slum migrants from within Gujarat,Maharashtra, Uttar pradesh,
Bihar, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Naidu, Kerala, etc.
• Accordingly, there has been a shift in them monthly income range of slum households between 1994 and 2001. The households in
the income range below Rs 1000 have improved their status marginally while the new households that were added after 1995 remain
in the lower income ranges.
•Slum locations have been determined mainly
by nearness to work sites and availability of
patches of land along the roads and rail
tracks, adjacent to factory walls, low lying
areas and canal banks and slums before 1994
were high , congested and unhygenic.
Of the 312 slums in the city, 124 are within and around the city wall and another 85 are along transport corridors. A significant
number (51) of slums exist in the interior areas of the wards.

HOUSING CONDITION AND BASIC AMENITIES
• It was reported way back in 1997 that 86 percent of the dwelling units in the slums of Surat are one room units and 58 percent of
them are less than 100 to 200 sq.ft in area.
• Migrant labors often share a single kutcha room on a shift basis. The condition of public utilities and services is dismal. Lack of
drainage, choked gutters, uncleaned filth, muck, garbage, pigs and stray dogs together make many of these locations easy prey to
water borne diseases like malaria, hepatitis B, typhoid, gastro enteritis etc.
• While slums within the city wall have access to piped water supply, the rest of the slums are not covered by any such network.
Though efforts to provide the slums with better amenities were carried out, the increasing number of slums has made such efforts in
adequate.
• Subsequent to the plague in 1994, all basic services like water supply, drainage lines, stone paved foot paths, road with carpet,
hand pumps, pay-and-use toilet, individual toilet, Balwadis, street lights, stand posts, storm water lines etc., have been provided in a
majority of the slums as part of the slum improvement programme. Socio Economic and Physical survey of the slums of the Surat
city was conducted in March 2005 and the work is recently completed.

Project Impact: Local level
The layouts consist of blocks of houses clustered around common open spaces. Hence there is hierarchy of open spaces, and
