NEHRU NATIONAL URBAN RENEWAL MISSION (JNNURM) JNNURM was launched by
the Govt. of India in December 2005 to encourage creation of financially
sustainable inclusive cities. The objective of the Mission is to give focused
attention to planned development of identified cities including peri-urban
areas, outgrowths and urban corridors to foster
dispersed urbanization, ensure adequate funds to meet the deficiencies in urban
infrastructural services, provide basic services to the urban poor including
security of tenure at affordable prices, improved housing, water supply and
sanitation, ensure delivery of
other existing universal services of the Government for education, health and
social security and establishment of linkages between asset-creation and
asset-management.
The Basic Services for
Urban Poor (BSUP) and Integrated Housing and Slum Development Program (IHSDP)
under JNNURM are dealt by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty
Alleviation. BASIC
SERVICES TO THE URBAN POOR (BSUP) Background
The programme for Basic
Services to the Urban Poor was launched with a view to ameliorate the conditions
of the urban slum dwellers who are residing in dilapidated conditions in the 63
identified mission cities. The basic objective of
the scheme is to strive for holistic slum development with a healthy and
enabling urban environment by providing adequate shelter and basic
infrastructure facilities to the urban slum dwellers. The main thrust is to
ensure improvement in urban governance so that urban local bodies/para statal
agencies become financially sound with enhanced credit rating and ability to
access market capital for undertaking new programmes. To achieve this
objective, State Governments, Urban Local Bodies and para statal agencies will
be required to accept implementation of an agenda of reforms. The project
proposal must meet a defined 7 point charter covering land tenure, housing,
water supply, sanitation, health, education and social security. Financing
pattern The Central and State
share is in the ratio of 50:50 for the cities having population more than one
million. In case of other cities (except North Eastern States and Jammu and
Kashmir) the ratio is 80:20 and for North Eastern States and Jammu and Kashmir
the ratio is 90:10. INTEGRATED
HOUSING AND SLUM DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME (IHSDP) Background
The Integrated Housing
and Slum Development Programme (IHSDP) was launched with a view to ameliorate
the dilapidated living conditions of the urban slum dwellers covering
all the towns except the 63 identified mission cities covered under the
programme for Basic Services for the Urban Poor (BSUP). The existing Valmiki
Ambedkar Awas Yojana (VAMBAY) and the discontinued National Slum Development
Programme (NSDP) are subsumed in the IHSDP, to strive for holistic slum
development with a healthy and enabling urban environment by providing adequate
shelter and basic infrastructure facilities to the urban slum dwellers. The main
thrust is to ensure improvement in urban governance so that urban local bodies /
para statal agencies become financially sound with enhanced credit rating and
ability to access market capital for undertaking new programmes. The project
proposal must meet a defined 7 point charter i.e. land tenure, housing, water
supply, sanitation, health, education and social security. Financing
pattern Under the scheme, the
Central and State share is in the ratio of 80:20 but for special category States
(North Eastern States and Hilly States i.e. HP, J&K, Uttaranchal and Sikkim)
the funding pattern between Centre and States will be in the ratio of 90:10. The ceiling cost for a
dwelling unit is Rs 80,000 per unit. For special category / hilly States and
difficult / far flung areas, 12.5% additional cost is permissible over and above
the prescribed ceiling cost per dwelling unit. HUDCO’s
