Abstract:
The first land pooling scheme came long before 100 years from now as Bombay
Town Planning Act of 1915 passed by the British when India was under British rule.
The first Town Planning scheme was made fin Ahmedabad. After this, seeing the
flaws in land acquisition model, many states replicate the model of land pooling
with a little change in their model. Although being of the principle model for land
readjustment, Town planning scheme as well has some flaws and drawbacks few
at the policy level but mostly at the implementation level.
The rapid increasing pressure of urbanization on the metro cities has made it
compulsory to have a better urban planning scheme. A scheme that can, not only
manages the urbanization but can also direct the growth.
The first objective is to understand the tools and principles of land management.
The second was to study the implementation process of town planning schemes.
Fourth was to evaluate the effectiveness of the town planning tool. The main
objective was to develop a tool for land management which has learned from the
drawbacks of the town planning scheme of Gujarat.
It was found that a TP schemes are subject to a lot of delays in their different
stages. Public partnership is just not enough. And there is no authority that can
monitor and or regulate the working of town planning scheme. Later in the study
more issues has been identified and a best fit recommendation has been given. A
monitoring authority is the key to good administration, planning, and management
