Case Study - Shillong: Scotland of the East Col (Dr) Gaurav Bhatia1, Arundhati Bhatia2, Abhimanyu Bhatia3 and Ranju Bhatia4 1(Chitkara Business School, Chitkara University) 2(Student, Five Year Integrated Law Course, Army Institute of Law, Mohali, SAS Nagar, Punjab) 3(Chitkara Business School, Chitkara University) 4(Faculty, Satluj Public School, Panchkula) Abstract: Being a typical tourist destination the Shillong Metropolitan Region includes eleven small towns. Till Jun 2015 the disposal of garbage was being done by residents and commercial establishments in garbage dumps. The Shillong Municipal Board (SMB) instituted a concept of “free doorstep collection of segregated garbage” by mobile vans. The segregation, storage at source and subsequent collection of garbage from the various localities is facilitated by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) MoU funded by the North-Eastern Region Capital Cities Development Investment Program (NERCCDIP); complimented with the “Polluter Pays Principle (PPP)”, wherein both the state government and the local “Dorbar” have ownership of the process. The paper tries to establish the success or otherwise of the implementation of the “Polluter Pays Principle (PPP)” in the Shillong Metropolitan Region to include its contribution towards the “Swachta Abhiyan” and capability to generate a source of reliable funding to keep Shillong clean. Keywords: Swachta Abhiyan; City Preparedness; Polluter Pays Principle; Segregation of garbage; Local Government.

INTRODUCTION Shillong town, India (25°34'8.11"N, 1°52'59.27"E) was established in the year 1864 by the British Government. The rolling hills around the town reminded the early European settlers of Scotland, and they colloquially referred to the area as the "Scotland of the East", due to its striking similarity with the Scottish Highlands. The romantic city of Shillong is one of the important tourist places of North East and is also the “Rock Capital of India” (Borthakur, 2014). Shillong was capital for composite Assam during the British regime and later till a separate State of Meghalaya was formed. Meghalaya is one of the smallest states in India. Shillong was nominated as the capital city of Meghalaya. Shillong is also known as "The Abode of Clouds". It is the headquarters of the East Khasi Hills district and is situated at an average altitude of 4,908 feet above sea level, with the highest point being Shillong Peak at 6,449 feet. Physical geography of Shillong is known for its ever-green panorama and cold to moderate climate. Demographics of Shillong Region Shillong is the 330th most populous city in India with a population of 211,530 (Office of the Registrar General & Census Commissioner India, 2019) of which 49% are males, 51% females. The average literacy rate was 93%, the male literacy rate is 95%, the female rate 91%. Christianity is the dominant religion in the city, practised by 46% of the population, followed by Hinduism at 42%, Islam 5%, and to a lesser degree Sikhism, Buddhism and Jainism. (Census of India, 2011; Government of India, 2011). Khasis make up the majority of the population though the percentage of Khasi people in the city continues to fall as a result of the large number of migrants from other Indian states continues in the city. The population of Khasis in Shillong was 65.22% of Shillong population (Office of the Registrar General & Census Commissioner India, 2011). All the other North East tribes such as Nagas, Garos, Pnars, Hajong people, Kukis, Manipuris, Lalungs, Karbis and Mizos etc. are represented here as well as significant numbers of Assamese, Bengalis, and a bit of Nepalis, Biharis, Marwaris, Punjabis and Muslim people making it a fairly cosmopolitan city. Shillong: Scotland of the East The paper discusses the concept of “Polluter Pays Principle (PPP)” as a case study for the city of Shillong: a typical hilly tourist destination. The Shillong metropolitan region, includes the towns of Lawsohtun, Madanrting, Mawlai, Mawpat, Nongkseh, Nongmynsong, Nongthymmai, Pynthorumkhrah, Shillong Cantonment, Umlyngka and Umpling. These towns over a period of time have merged into one composite “Shillong Metropolitan Region” with all the attending problems which plague a hilly tourist hot spot. The crowded town, with commercial and http://indusedu.org Page 1 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License Gaurav Bhatia et al., International Journal of Research in Engineering, IT and Social Sciences, ISSN 2250-0588, Impact Factor: 6.565, Volume 10 Issue 01, January 2020, Page 1-10 domestic areas competing with each other in the same maze of narrow bylanes - is a story often repeated in every locality of the state capital. The quantum of daily garbage being produced sharply varies as per the tourist season, but the criticality lies in ensuring the collection and disposal of the organic and inorganic garbage dumped all over the city. Demographic details (Office of the Registrar General & Census Commissioner India, 2019) of the Shillong Metropolitan Region are enumerated hereunder - Town Type Population Lawsohtun Census Town 8,214 Madanrting Census Town 29,194 Mawlai Census Town 55,012 Mawpat Census Town 6,184 Nongkseh Census Town 4,846 Nongmynsong Census Town 15,017 Nongthymmai Census Town 38,004 Pynthorumkhrah Census Town 27,219 Shillong Cantonment Cantonment Board 11,930 Umlyngka Census Town 7,381 Umpling Census Town 8,529 Shillong Municipality covers 27 wards (33 traditional localities and 5 localities in Normal Areas) over an area of 10.36 sq km with a population of 211,530 as per data collected in 2019 (Shillong Municipal Board, 2015a, 2015b). The area over which the Shillong Municipal Board (SMB) is responsible for service delivery is only about 25% of the Shillong Urban Agglomeration and caters to 50% of the total population.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE A deliberate study and research of the subject were undertaken from Oct 2018 onwards by the team of authors and a host of reference material and existing literature reviewed to understand the various facets of the issue under assessment. Various important international conventions, protocols and major national policy framework documents, guidelines were referred to and these formed the bedrock of the understanding of the institutional framework of the subject of Solid Waste Management in various cities of India. A deliberate look was also taken of the various development programmes / MoUs (Macdonald, 2013) which were under implementation in the chosen city of Shillong.

The literature review was assisted by the availability of a large variety of e-journals and associated online resources from North-Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong; State Central Library, Shillong and the Knowledge Centre at Indian Institute of Management (IIM), Shillong. A methodical review of relevant databases was undertaken using varied combinations of the keywords listed above. III. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY The Research Design and Methodology adopted for the research was engineered to meet the requirements of time criticality, the economy of effort and exactitude. To assess the status of the success or otherwise of the Solid Waste Management initiative coupled with the “Polluter Pays” initiative of the SMB, a two-pronged approach was utilised. A deliberate, detailed appraisal of the best practices being followed in this regard all over the world was gleaned from a broad-based literature review and the initiative of SMB was evaluated against them (Ambec and Ehlers, 2016; Shastri, 2000; Stoczkiewicz, 2010; World Bank, 2007). To gauge the Community Awareness quotient and assess the views of the general public in Shillong about this initiative a specially formulated questionnaire (https://forms.gle/q46rXuSkE2LabPSk9) (Bhatia, 2019) was designed. In order to ensure that the questionnaire was comprehensive, covered all dimensions of the intended study, and was appropriate to the task at hand, the questionnaire was tested as a Pilot and thereafter administered using Google Forms over the internet, specifically to the general public of Shillong. The questionnaire is appended at Appendix. IV. DATA ANALYSIS The entire statistical analysis for the data collected was done with the help of IBM SPSS Version 24.0. The statistical technique used is Descriptive Statistics (Norušis, 2008). The Polluter Pays Principle (PPP): Legal Interpretation The PPP is an expansive idea with different meanings relying upon particular settings. In domestic law, the PPP expresses that contaminating

  • Urban Development
    MMEGHALAYAEGHALAYA SSTATETATE DEVELOPMENTDEVELOPMENT RREPORTEPORT CHAPTER VIII URBAN DEVELOPMENT 8.1. Introducti on Urbanizati on in Meghalaya has maintained a steady growth. As per 2001 Census, the state has only 19.58% urban populati on, which is much lower than the nati onal average of 28%. Majority of people of the State conti nue to live in the rural areas and the same has also been highlighted in the previous chapter. As the urban scenario is a refl ecti on of the level of industrializati on, commercializati on, increase in producti vity, employment generati on, other infrastructure development of any state, this clearly refl ects that the economic development in the state as a whole has been rather poor. Though urbanizati on poses many challenges to the city dwellers and administrators, there is no denying the fact that the process of urbanizati on not only brings economic prosperity but also sets the way for a bett er quality of life. Urban areas are the nerve centres of growth and development and are important to their regions in more than one way. The current secti on presents an overview of the urban scenario of the state. 88.2..2.
