Review of Twelfth Plan Proposals for Urban Transport-Ranjit Gadgil

-Economic and Political Weekly

 

 

The Twelfth Five-Year Plan aims to foster more inclusive and sustainable growth. Urban transport finds mention in its chapters on sustainable development, environment, and urban development, which focus not only on aspects of public transport, but also urban planning and governance. Identifying the three main themes that emerge from the Plan's recommendations, this paper takes a critical look at them. It comments on what appears to be a significant divergence from the policy recommendations in the Plan and the Plan outlays, both in the first phase of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission and what is proposed in the second phase, before going on to make specific recommendations on how matters could be improved.

Ranjit Gadgil (ranjit.gadgil.1@gmail.com) is the director of Janwani, a non-governmental organisation in Pune dedicated to advocating sustainable development policies and improved governance.
