    CHAPTER 3 RECENT TREND OF URBANIZATION AND GROWTH OF URBAN CENTRES IN NORTH BENGAL 3.1 Introduction The process of urbanization started off rather slowly in North Bengal. Gradually with the passage of time urbanization spread its wings across various districts of North Bengal. During the last twenty years, North Bengal witnessed an unprecedented increase in not only its urban population but also in the number of urban centres. This increase in urban population and the number of urban centres however is not uniform. Some districts witnessed a rapid increase in urban population while rest of the districts was devoid of any urban growth resulting in an increase in disparity within the region. The growth of urban centres was also not uniform. Moreover, very few statutory towns emerged, with an increase taking place only in terms of census towns. Given this background it is very important to analyze the recent trends in urbanization for various parameters across North Bengal during the period 1991 to 2011 covering three census years. Although, study of urbanization exclusively for Nortrh Bengal has been very limited yet a number of scholars have tried to analyze the urbanization process in North Bengal within a broader framework of West Bengal. Chakma, N. and Ghosh, B. (2014) 1 in their study of recent trends of urbanization in West Bengal found the decadal growth rate of urban population during 2001 – 2011 to be more than 3 times that of the national average for Maldah district and to be more than 2 times that of the national average for Jalpaiguri district.

    266 CHAPTER 6 PROBLEMS of URBANIZATION in NORTH BENGAL 6.1 Introduction the Process of Urbanization in Developing Countries Is A

    CHAPTER 6 PROBLEMS OF URBANIZATION IN NORTH BENGAL 6.1 Introduction The process of urbanization in developing countries is associated with their own problems. The problems range from proliferation of slums, drinking water problems, housing problems, sanitation problems and urban environmental problems and pollution. With rapid urbanization taking place in most of the districts of North Bengal, the urban centres of this region are facing their own problems which are quite similar to those being faced in other parts of the country. In this chapter the main objective will be to analyze the problems related to proportion of slum households, access to safe drinking water, availability of electricity facility, availability of latrine facility, availability of bathroom within house, availability of drainage facility and availability of separate kitchen within house. All these parameters will be analyzed for individual urban centres of North Bengal for 2001 and 2011 respectively. Moreover, their change during this period will also be analyzed for individual urban centre. To analyze the change in the percentage of households without access to any facility across the urban centres of North Bengal during 2001 – 2011, only those urban centres which existed during 2001 and 2011 i.e. in both the census years have been taken into consideration. Therefore, although there were 48 urban centres in 2001 and 131 urban centres in 2011, only 47 urban centres which were common in both the census years have been taken into consideration to analyze the temporal change in their share of households without access to any facility. The decadal variation in the percentage of household without access to facility „x‟ of any urban centre has been calculated by the formula as under.

    An Integrated Approach to Identify Suitable Areas for Built-Up

    Research Article An integrated approach to identify suitable areas for built‑up development using GIS‑based multi‑criteria analysis and AHP in Siliguri planning area, India Arjun Saha1 · Ranjan Roy1 Received: 30 October 2020 / Accepted: 9 February 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 OPEN Abstract Unplanned and haphazard built-up growth due to immense pressure of population is a common problem for maximum cities of developing countries which paves to create urban sprawl by capturing spacious areas of natural environment. For this, selection of suitable places for built-up development by maintaining ecological balance has become inevitable part for proper urban planning. Siliguri planning area, which has witnessed a tremendous growth in built-up features after the 1990, has been chosen for this work to fnd out best places for future built-up development with minimum efects on diferent natural features and also calculates the amount of diferent types of suitability which will be transferred from diferent land use and land cover categories in near future which is a novelty of this work. The work has been executed through GIS-based multi-criteria analysis, and a total of nine criteria have been taken to locate best places for built-up development. Analytic hierarchy process or AHP has been used to calculate weights of each criterion by using pair wise comparison matrix. Final site suitability map has been prepared with four diferent classes: high suitable, moderate suit- able, less suitable and restricted area and the percentage of land is high in moderate suitable category that is 52.33% which covers the intermediary portion, mainly wastelands and agricultural land of the study area with higher facility of accessibility.
