But now, the same source of water became a black spot in the urban setup due to continuous and haphazard urban development. Gwalior is a historical and major city in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. The urban form of Gwalior is influence by the unique landscape features, the high rocky hills surrounds the city from all sides and the Swarna Rekha river. With the growth of city the stress on the river increases, this result in predictable change in Swarna Rekha habitat, decline in the richness of fish communities which show the increase in the load of nutrients, metals, pesticides and other contaminants in River. To understand the site various studies is done in the aspect of data collection, topographical and climatic analysis. The project talks about the importance of the stream to its urban community and redesign in such a way that it can bring awareness to people while improving physical and ecological corridor connections and reduction of the urban heat island effect. 5 SCHOOL OF PLANNING AND ARCHITECTURE ,NEELBAD ROAD, BHAURI REDEVELOPMENT OF URBAN STREAM CORRIDOR CASE OF SWARN REKHA, GWALIOR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Thesis has been an extremely educating experience for me and presenting this report fills me with a sense of satisfaction and gratitude towards the almighty and all those help me out of the way to reach this stage.

The important role of cities in national economic process and their global linkages demand more attention for their development, than being hitherto given. Cities are expected to perform efficiently in keeping with emerging demands for employment, commerce, trade, industry and other services. Cities have to attract investments for improving their efficiencies by way of up to date infrastructure, improved governance and affordable housing/living with modern amenities. Urban renewal of Indian cities has been initiated to achieve the objectives. According to census of India, the urban population in the country as 2011 was 377 million. This constituted 31.16% of the total population of 1210 millions. The net addition of population in urban areas during the decade 2001‐2011 was about 91 million The slum census, 2001 in towns with more than 50,000 population, numbering 607, reported 40.606 million slum dwellers which amounted to 22.76% of the population living in those 607 towns/cities. This implies, nearly one out of every four persons reside in slums in our cities & towns. Slums generally lack basic infrastructure, housing, social amenities and this has implications on health and productivity of the people living in such areas.

  • Economic Rejuvenation of a Region – a Case of Gwalior City
    www.ijcrt.org © 2018 IJCRT | Volume 6, Issue 1 February 2018 | ISSN: 2320-2882 ECONOMIC REJUVENATION OF A REGION – A CASE OF GWALIOR CITY 1Sudheer Singh Sikarwar 2Rajeev Parashar 1Associate Professor 2Assistant Professor 1Amity School of Architecture and Planning, 2Amity School of Architecture Planning, 1Amity University Gwalior, India 2Amity University Gwalior, India ______________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: In India, regional imbalance has been one of the major concerns and it has been perpetuating for many years starting from pre-independence period. Regional disparities or imbalances imply wide differences in per capita income, literacy rates, availability of health and education services, levels of industrialization, etc. between different regions. The planning in independent India has also not been able to remove these disparities. The need for the removal of regional disparities was well recognized by the leaders of the independent India. Generally, India has a fairly good decadal growth rate, therefore the regions can be developed by the assistance provided by the Govt. of India and holistic development can be achieved. The study proposes to carry out such work on an identified region in Central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh which is Gwalior district with an aim of Economic Development of the Region covering objectives to understand the profile of the region, the resource base, existing economy and determination of potential of different towns and working of interventions. Economic development is the development of economic wealth of countries or regions for the well-being of their inhabitants. It usually refers to the adoption of new technologies, transition from agriculture-based to industry-based economy. It helps in the overall development and growth of the region for the people.
