The Big Picture: Transforming Indian Cities 

Mr Bhattacharjee's point of view and clarity of those points is phenomenal. He needs to be in more debates. Just a thought.

Is it just me who felt that Mr. Mishra (in first half) instead of answering what is being asked, just glorified current govt's policy. For him questions seem to be irrelevant, he already had prepared answers xD

The wall behind secretary reads, कबीर खड़ा बाजार में, मांगे सबकी खैर । ना काहू से दोस्ती, ना काहू से बैर ।। *Strengthening local self government s *Regional planning *Regional balance of developement *Housing *Employment Good discussion overall Frank👍👌 Good discussion

There should be a superlike button. M glad varied points were made in such a short time.

The problem i find with cabinet secrataries that whenever they are asked a question they start propoganda of government though they have much better minds

Yoy are doing very god work ,excellent work ,enlightening discussion

please turn on auto subtitle feature. Thanks!

Please don't bring presently working bureaucrats in the discussion. They will have a biased view and hence the sanctity of the programme is marred.

Very helpful in interview prep. Of upsc

best thing said by Sudhir Krishna at 15:43 that there should not be amalgamation of small towns/villages to large cities.But there should be a interconnection through better transport. By adjoining them,we do harm to farming,forests and primary sector vanishes as happened in NCR

Thanks rstv

Tq for all of the penals speech very nice we have any group dissccusion Are intervew useful.

Most of the people here are criticizing Mr.mishra but on the other, these are the people who join the IAS like services. I hope they know that he is also an IAS officer. You will also have to speak like him when you join the post.

Nice debate sir 👍 👌

T ravindran sir views are best way forward I believe

Subhomoy battacharjee is amazing

pls bring speakers like subhomoy in max shows.

The gentleman in grey suit is talking like a politician instead of being a bureaucrat. He is not answering the question and instead speaks what he wants to speak.

sir bhattacharya jee your questions very high level and solutions are come when problem is raise but are find the problem before raise the problem , your extraordinary person in subject

nice one

Raveendran and shubhmoy's points fetch more marks...

Thanks

india - urbanised level - 32 per european and american level - 80 per why migration towards cities:- economic consideration land holding decreasing ( current average 1 hc) better availability of quality life , health, education, business opportunity in cities Govt. moves - swach bharat mission, amrut , urban livelihood mission, housing for all , metro growth, ease of doing business rank - 52, considered ease of living index etc. NEED TO DO + work on infrastructure +adequate job/ employment generation +transportation; social infrastructure + regional balance / planning ( good water supply , power supply , housing , livelihood ) - ensure distribution of population. + strenthen local government ( cities under municipality )

Can we have the transcripts of this show ?

We need a attention towards the rising air pollution with proper implementation of pollution controle measures along with traffic management and proper segegragation of solid waste management to improve livelihood of people with full potential of our indian youths .

Indian cities housing around 45% of the population of our country is expected to be the fastest growing cities in the world according to the Oxford Economics Report. The challenges lying ahead are: - Creating employment opportunities for the huge population growth in the cities. - Create proper housing for the people who will migrate to the cities. If we solve these challenges, Indian cities being the growth engines of our country will be able to take the pressure off the disguised unemployment in agriculture sector in rural areas. For solving these problems, we need good governance in cities through municipalities. - Laying of roads, proper housing, water supply, electricity supply and waste management has to be done effectively by the municipality bodies rather than special purpose vehicles. - Proper connectivity of the small towns, medium towns and bigger cities is required to nurture the habitat themselves. - Diversifying of city growth is required to avoid over population in certain cities especially coastal areas to avoid climate change and progress towards sustainable development. - Pollution which is a huge problem in the cities in the recent years have to be solved by creating renewable energy resource based industries for development.

At the same time we need to focus on food security also , practically in urban areas ,many people are not having access of food ;how the dream urbanization will full filled if poor people have not access to basic food ✅

Inspite of all missions & growth of public transport Real Estate remains unorganized Something needs to be done here The poor migrating to cities are living miserably in slums, thus the pressure on health,standard of living, environment & ultimately Govt. Resources Its high time the States especially Northern and people in governance hierarchy take responsibility of inclusive growth & focus more on Agriculture and farmers Inspite of diverting youth and changing names.

KT Ravindran Sir replied to the question asked to the secretary.

Both the bureaucrats show very amazingly that they are products of UPSC. mindlessly listing points, some technical, good sounding terms - 'regional connectivity, x approach, y approach, decentralization'. Urgent changes required.

Sustainable and inclusive development should be the priority

Waste management,public transportation and better judicial if not done right.....we will fail miserably

....... JAI HIND........

Parera sr. Jb itne superior people ko le ke aate hi h to thoda debate ka time bhi bdha diya kriye....

Modiji tell Secretary.. Speak out data

Looking at Frank I feel sleepy !! Get some rest Frank !!

it sounds good but environment and agriculture should be taken care of...becoz if you urbanize ourself then we need to put pressure on limited resources we have and urbanization can reduce labour force in agriculture (though disguise inflation )...that means we have to modernize our agriculture to ensure food security as well.....in short we have to consider all parameters..for that political,governance will should be there,,,

Mr mishra is speaking only about gov policy irrespective any question😂

Stop inviting these secretary from government. They assert what government want to deliver seems no two putting their own perspective but gov.

Come here in Jharkhand there is no swatch Bharat.... Condition became even worse than congress regime...

Cute smile h anchor ki

Cities grow faster in world by 2035 Oxford study Surat fastest growing India Not urbanized enough Fragmented land holding - migrate to city Feed country Migrants to city Growth projected 40% 2040 and 50 to 2050 People in search of quality life Smart city atal rejuvenate mission livelihood mission aawaz mission swachh Bharat Ease of doing business- gone up to 77 Ease of living index- improving fastly Top 10 all are from India Metros Infrastructure need? Need to work especially Urban infra Housing for migrate Employability - shift from Agri to service - for city to receive these population - need infra Need a revisit Cautious? Numbers are subjective to variation World turn to South East Asia All city from Western coast no city from East Kolkata fall India 31% Urban Project to 50%soon Step to take? Utter Pradesh 21% urbanization- large villages - associated cities- if urbanized- number go up very high Larger city growth low growth in population compare to small towns- need attention Need connectivity to small and big town - not amalgamation Need nurture programme for medium and small towns Employment? Credit facility Housing facility through awaz Skill India mission National livelihood mission Growth is not uniform- still need to wait for this top city to grow and learn from this to grow small City A better regional planning need Population wise Delhi is in third Growth is distribution of population - better distribution of wealth Government role not to select growing city- to keep a balance and plan Coastal city are prone to climate change Need decentralization - admn improved( no need of infra )- Urban design - regional planning Top most polluted city also indias- growth model questioned? Migration is in search of livelhood - so no uniformity- need political governance- who rule city? Mayor or cm confusion still remain What model to follow Asian or India development model Conclusion Strength local government Distribution of resources equally for making all city smart Urban planning key challenge - need plan together Land and water - are we prepared or not - chaos planning now - need correction- failure of governance Can't planning from first all are made so need to do from here no virgin city

Lets first try and put into perspective....

But the most irritating thing is the population and our cities are not at all capable to absorb it

Frank looks smart in beard...

buerocrat bhai kahan kahan kya bol rhe ho, 0/15 stick to the question 😂😂🤣

Mr Durga Shanker Mishra in this show was as irrelevant as Sajid Khan in Bollywood.

Please increase the debate time...As important aspects have been left like...Garbage management , industries around cities will create problem of pollution, thermal power stations should be established at a distance from urban centers etc.

when u want to hide extra weight🧔

The influx of people in Cities do not auger well from humanity in future.THre must be a balance.I(ndia can be agricuktural super power than a Military super power.Fertile river valleys with olenty fresh water & Sun power can generate enough food to feed the wholw world..The villages centres must have essential amenities for a decent living. Secondly we need a Good Shelter,Health,Education,Transport & integration nationwide for our civilisation to survive in next millinium. JRB

The first class cities are witnessing growth rate of population much lesser in comparison to the fifths Nd sixth class ,as mentioned Upto 200 percent,what prohibits the growth in first class,first people migrating not able to cope up with living standards,if persists then putting blood sweat ,second employability mostly labourers migrate ,so they need to have better commitment from state government under employment under migration act,like getting registered with welfare boards of construction developers ,and getting all benefits as in the law that will certainly sort out slums poor condition,third clear cut jurisdiction authorisation ,mostly issues get stuck due to blame game ,and finally winning the election by quoting on political discourse,like pollution in Delhi,ngt ,cpcb,epca,spcb,union territories categorisation,fourth ,diversified definition urban planning such that villages getting accommodated to towns get developed at their respective places instead of displacement ,like extension of metros near NCT,that will further generate employability ,via diversification in livelihood ,lastly report mentions Indian cities will be fastest growing cities what sort of fastest growing cities means if not able to cope with the sustainability,most of the governance frame work come under state subject if govt intencivize something state need to prioritize that and maintaining the infrastructure created,

At last, the truth comes from his mouth :p I don't understand how communal elements comes for healthier debates. இரும்பு காச்சுற எடத்துல ஈக்கு என்ன வேலை :)

we need modi. Mr Modi has to win 2019 or else India will go to the dogs, god forbid.
