Kms., comprising the city of Chandigarh, Notified Area Committee, Manimajra and 22 villages. The population as per 1991 census of this Union Territory is approximately 6.41 lakhs out of which, 87,000 is the rural population. The Urban Rural Population ratio is 86.14, This is against the All India Ratio of 24.76. Due to compactness of the U.T., there exists a close rapport between the people and the Chandigarh Administration and such no difficulty is faced in the identification of the problems of this area. 2. All the 22 village in this Union Territory have been provided with modern amenities such as pacca roads, electrification, piped water supply, bus services, schools, mobile dispenssry,,. mobile library ect. By extensive coverage -urider poverty alleviation programmes the population below poverty line has been reduced to almost nil. Even Rural Labour Employment guarantee programme has to be discontinued for want for local rural labour. 3. The Union Territory is urban in charcter and its already small rural belt is shrinking further because of acqisition of rural land for the expansion of the city of Chandigarh. Since Chandigarh was never concieved an Industrial Town, no major industry has been set up here. However, a number of village and small insustries have come up. The target of spreading universal elementary education among children in the 6-11 age-group have been achieved. 4. The basic amenities i.e electricity, water supply, housing, sanitation has come up under considerable pressure because of the increase in the urban population of the city. 5. Size of the 8th Plan : The 8th plan 1992-97 for this Union Territory has been approved for Rs.400 crores. During the 1st year of the plan i.e. 1992-93, the actual expenditure was Rs.65.31 crores against the approved plan size of Rs. 68,00 crores. The approved plan size of the last two Annual Plan's of the 8th plan period is as under (Rs. in crores) Year Draft size of Approved Actual %age of the the Plan size of Expenditure increase the Plan 1992-93 95.00 68.00 65.31 — 1993-94 95.90 80.00 80.00 17.6% (anticipated) 6. Formulatioii of Draft Amual Plan 1994-95 : As per guidelines received from the Planning Commissins, the broad objectives of the Government of India's Approach/priorities of the 8th plan are to be kept in view which are reflected as under (i) Employment generation. (ii) Containment of Population growth; (iii) Universalisation of elementary education, complete eradication of illiteracy among people of the age group of 15-35 years; (iv) Eradication of scavenging and provision of safe drinking water. health care immunisation of villages; IX (v) Growth and decentralisation of agriculture to achieve self sufficiency, food generation of surplus for export; (vl) Strengthening of infrastructure facilities i.e^ energy, transport, communication and irrigation in order to support the process of gro^Vth in a suitable manner; (vii) Effective decentralisation, encouragement of local initiatives, elementary efforts etc; The main concern, however, is funding of on-going projects particularly power, Water Supply and Healh without over riding priority in the annual Plan 1993-94. 7. Efforts have been made to make adequate provision for the develop­ mental schemes of the Rural Sector. Schemes for the provion of basic amenitits in the Rural Area have been included in the Annual Plan 1994-95. Special attention has been given to the needs of the economically weaker sections of the society. In line with the Government of India’s Approach, an effort has been made to see that the develoment is augmented by growth in employment opportunities. Chandigarh is a planned city, it has all the modern amenities, such as electricity, water supply, sewerage, storm water drainage/Roads etc. Health and Education facilities are also excellent here. However, because of the increase in its population, it has become necessary to further augment these amenities. Schemes for the augmentation of these amenities, especially the water- supply, Sewerage, Medical College, Housing Development of 3rd Phase Sector, Rehabilitation of Labour Colonies have been included in the Annual Plan 1994-95. It has also become necessary to further strengthen the educational and health facilities in the territory. 8. A statement of Sector/Sub-Sector wise allocation in Annual Plan 1994- 95 is Annexed. The major portion of Plan Outlay goes towards providing basic amenities to the citizen of Chandigarh. Out of total proposed outlay of Rs.95,00 crores for Annual Plan 1994-95, an outlay of Rs. 71.32 crores has been provided for Social Services. In terms of percentage, Health gets 15.4% Housing 4.8% Education 15.4% Water-supply 15% Urban Development 20.5%. This proposed outlay of Rs. 95.00 crores for the Annual Plan 1994-95 is 18.7% higher than the approved outlay of Rs. 80.00 crores during the Annual Plan 1993-94. 9. In order to consolidate the gains of investment made in the previous years, care has been taken to ensure that schemes are so designed that already existing infrastructure is put to maximise use.

Located at the foothills of the Sivalik Mountains, Chandigarh was the dream city of independent India’s first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. In 1952, Nehru commissioned the Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier to design Chandigarh. Scholars often locate in Corbusier’s plans an urban modernity that required a break with the past. Moving away from such scholarship, this article will argue that Chandigarh marked a climactic moment in Le Corbusier’s career when he tried to weave together modern architecture with tradition, and through it, human beings with nature. A careful study of the cosmic iconography of Chandigarh clearly reveals that nature for Le Corbusier was more than a vast expanse of greenery: it was organized in symbolic ways, as a cosmic form emblematic of Hindu mythologies. I will argue that in addition to local conditions – economic and cultural – that impacted the actual execution of Le Corbusier’s plans, cosmic iconography shaped a modernism profoundly reliant on Hindu traditions. This iconography also inspired a new generation of Indian architects like Balkrishna Vithaldas Doshi (1927 – present). Doshi played a key role in authoring the postcolonial architectural discourse in India. Following Le Corbusier, he advocated an architectural modernism anchored in sacred Hindu traditions. Keywords: Le Corbusier, Chandigarh, B.V.

  • A Concept Made Concrete
    A CONCEPT MADE CONCRETE CONSERVING A BRUTALIST ICON THROUGH ARCHITECTURAL INTERVENTION An explanatory document by Taylor Ryan Bell "In the last resort what characterises the New Brutalism ... is precisely its brutality, its je-m'en-foutisme, its bloody-mindedness." - Reyner Banham 1 ABSTRACT This project aims to prove, through relevant research, that Brutalist buildings such as Robin Hood Gardens are not only important parts of recent history but are also adaptable to modern standards and new functions. It will also prove that architectural intervention, however minimal, is a powerful tool when dealing with aged building stock. Retaining historic buildings contributes to the sociocultural wellbeing of a nation by providing scholars, students and laymen the opportunity to view and study a building that may otherwise be destroyed. Adaptation of aged buildings will help to create cities with a rich tapestry of architectural history, contrasting the old and the new. Understanding the history of the Brutalist movement and its contribution to architectural development in Europe, the Americas, and New Zealand, is paramount when considering this research document. It will be made clear as to why Robin Hood Gardens is an ideal case study. Due to its design and current predicament, Robin Hood Gardens can be seen as a microcosm of the failure of Brutalist ideology - and a failure of twenty-first century society to identify and protect its architectural treasures. Although the topic of adaptive reuse has been covered many times before, the solution proposed for Robin Hood Gardens in this document is entirely unique. The findings of this study will help to inform (or reform) the values of individuals involved in the decision- making process of architectural conservation.

Concerns of security have lead to limited accessibility, introduction of grills on openings and bifurcation of the pedestrian plaza. The backdrop of the Shivalik range is vital to the integrity of the layout.
