1. LANDUSE

1.1 LANDUSE – 1972

At that time total area under MUNCIPAL CORPORATION is 5981.25 hectares and total

developed area is 2268.22 hectares. In this period city grows in compact form, all development

comes in walled city area and near by walled city area. At this time public-semipublic area is

developed in all direction`s of the city[1]. City grows in haphazard way so walled city area

became a congested area of the city. The percentage and area under different Landuse is given in

1.2 LANDUSE 1997

The Municipal area of Udaipur has increased from 5981.25 hectares to 6692.40 hectares. The

total developed area is 4500 hectares. In this decade city grows in spread form, city grows in all

directions. City grows along with major roads and near public/semi-public area. Some planned

area`s are developed by UIT and housing board.

Municipal limit remains same so, total area under municipal limit is 6692.40 hectares and the total

urban developed area is 9679.88 hectares. So, Udaipur has seen a rapid and fast physical growth,

spreading horizontally,beyond the proposed urbanizable area 2022. The shape of the toadys`s city is

amoebic, spreading in all directions. City growth in the east direction of the city because in this

direction city have plain area. So all development comes in that particular area like bhuwana area.

Both planned and unplanned development comes in the city. The percentage of area under different

landuses as given below in table 3

decade, so there is no problem in this side. Many new institutes come in the city because Udaipur

is institutional hub center of the state. Percentage of landuse under circulation has been increased

as new roads are add in the circulation network of the city. Percentage of area under parks and

open spaces was already negligible in 1997 and in further reduced drastically by 1 percent.

1.5 URBAN SPRAWL

Urban sprawl is an important aspect which is to be studied to see the growth of the urban area

beyond M.C. boundary. In which haphazard growth of the town is taking place and the urban

growth is coming along the major road and near university area. Some unplanned growth comes

near industrial area also. But in this haphazard growth one planned area is also developed by UIT

in Bhuwana zone.

1.6 COMPARISON OF EXISTING LANDUSE WITH PROPOSED

LANDUSE

After comparison we find out that maximum development according to proposed landuse. Only

12% area on which landuse feature is different from proposed landuse. Beyond municipal limit

maximum landuse is not according to proposed landuse. Maximum change in existing and

proposed landuse in parks, they convert parks landuse into residential landuse. Commercial

landuse comes along major roads.

2. DEMOGRAPHY

Udaipur is the city situated in Udaipur district in Rajasthan, having a population of 451735 (as

per 2011 census). The demographic study of this city has been done under the following

categories:

1. Population of Local Planning Area 2. Growth of Population 3. Population Density 4. Ward wise Population Distribution

2.1 POPULATION OF LOCAL PLANNING AREA

The population of Local Planning Area is 560438 and it comprises 69.49% of city population

i.e., 389438. The area under Local Planning Area is 67035 hectares.

2.2 GROWTH OF POPULATION

The population of the city has been increasing steadily. In 1961, the population of the city

was 1.11 lakhs which increased to 4.52 lakhs in 2011.. In 1961 the city population

comprises 69.81 % of the district population and it rose to 79.16% in 2011. In comparison to state population, the city population comprises 3.38 % of total population in 1961 and

its percentage reduces to 2.64% in 20011. It is shown in Table 8.1 and Fig. 8.1. As per

Master Plan of Udaipur (1997-2022), the projected population was 5.99 lakhs in 2011 and 8.30 lakhs in 2022. But the population of city is not growing as per projections as it was

4.52 lakhs as per 2011 census.

Fig. 1: Growth of Population, 1961-2011 Growth Rate The growth rate of city is decreasing with passing decades as it was 45.11%

between1961-1971 and it decreased to 16% between 2001- 2011. The highest decrease in growth

rate was in 2001-2011.The growth rate of District and Rajasthan is also decreasing, except for

the year 1981 in which it increased. The growth rate of district increased in 2001-2011. It is

shown with table 6 and fig. 2

chief reason for Negative Growth Rate in Udaipur District in 1991. The Literacy Rate is also

increasing, which creates awareness among people about the benefits of small family.

2.3 DENSITY OF POPULATION The density in city is increasing with passing decades except for the year 1971. It was 31 in 1961

and it rose to 67 in 2011. It is shown by table 7 and fig. 3. The density is increasing due to

increasing concentration of population in small area. The highest increase in density was in 1991.

The density of district was 1844 in 1981 which is much higher than the city. As per Norms and

Standards the density of medium city should lies between “100-150 persons per hectare”1 and

the city shows lower density [2].Table 7: Population Density (in hectares), 1961-2011

2.4 DISTRIBUTION OF POPULATION IN WARDS

Ward wise distribution of population presents a picture of demographic structure of the city.

From the table 8 it is clear that there are 6 wards which accommodate higher number of persons

in them due to large area under them and these wards show planned development. Among them

ward no. 7 is having highest population. The wars having population range between 6000-12000

comprise 56.9% of total population.On the other hand, the wards in the central part of the city

accommodate lesser population and among them ward no. 37 is having lowest population. The

main reason for it is the smallest area acquired by them.

2.5 WARD WISE POPULATION DENSITY

It presents a relationship between population and area. From the table

9 it is clear that there are 29 wards which are having higher density

due to small area under them and among them ward no. 42 is having

highest density. On the other hand, there are 4 wards which are

having population density between 100-150 and among them ward

no. 39 is having lowest density. It reveals that wards which are having

high population but smaller area are having higher density and

consequent congestion. The wards which are having less population

in a large area shows lesser density. Population is highly concentrated

in walled city and it is low in peripheral wards. The population

density of the city has a strong positive correlation with the

availability of physical infrastructure like water water supply and

sewerage connection.

The social characteristics have been studied under the following

categories:

1. Sex Composition 2. Literacy Rate 3. Caste Structure 4. Religious Structure 5. Ward wise Literacy Distribution 6. Ward wise Caste Structure

3.1 SEX COMPOSITION

The number of males and females is increasing with passing decade.

In 1961 the males constitute 54.24% and females constitute 45.76%,

it was having sex ratio of 844. In 2011 the percentage of males

decline to 51.95% and percentage of females rose to 48.05 %, it lead

to increase in sex ratio to 925[3] It is shown by table 10 and fig. 4.

Migration There are different reasons of migration such as employment, marriage,

moved after birth etc. In 2001 the number of Migrants in Udaipur district were 79083

which comprise 14% of the total population of the district.

Literacy The number of literates in city is increasing with passing decades. In 1961 the

literacy rate among males was 34.53 and among females was 16.36. From the table 11

and fig. 8.5 it is clear that literacy rate among females is increasing at rapid rate as

compared to males. In 2011 the literacy rate among males was 44.29% which shows

increase of 9.76% from 2001 and literacy rate among females was 36.87%, which shows

increase of 20.51%.

3.4 WARD WISE LITERACY DISTRIBUTION

From the table 15 it is clear that there are 8 wards having literacy rate below 70%. These

wards are located at outskirts of the city except ward no. 24, 26 and 39. The wards having

literacy rate between 70-80% are 22 and they comprise area of 3046 hectares. There are

20 wards having literacy rate above 80% and they comprise area of 1365 hectares which

is much smaller than the area comprised by 22 wards having literacy between 70-80%.

The wards which are located in south of the city are recently developed due to which

literacy rate is lower. Inspite of having educational institutes all over the city, the literacy

rate is higher in ward no. 44 which is situated in walled city.

3.5 WARD WISE CASTE STRUCTURE

Scheduled castes and Scheduled tribes comprise 14.23% of total population of the city.

There are 19 wards which are having percentage share of Scheduled castes and

Scheduled tribes population below 10%. It includes wards which are located in walled

city and some other wards. The wards which are having scheduled castes and scheduled

tribes population Above 20% are 12 and these are located in periphery of the city except

hectares. It shows that wards which are having large area are having higher percentage of

scheduled castes and scheduled tribes. The highest percentage in periphery of the city is

due to planned development in the form of housing schemes. It is shown by table 16

3.6 ECONOMIC CHARACTERISTICS

In respect of economic characteristics, the occupational structure and dependency ratio is studied.

Occupational Structure The occupational structure of the city is shown by table 17. It shows the

number of male and female workers engaged in different sectors of economy. It shows that among the

three sectors the maximum number of workers are engaged in secondary and tertiary sector. The

number of workers under primary and secondary sectors shows great fluctuations. The number of

workers under tertiary sector are increasing every decade except for the year 1991. The females

participation is very small. The high variation in composition leads to decrease in the standard of

living and effect the economy of the city. According to the Master Plan, the occupational structure by

2022 will be 4% in agriculture, 30% in other services, 27% in trade and commerce and 22% in

industries. Rest of the people will be employed as 6% in construction and 11% in communication and

transport.

Dependency Ratio The dependency ratio of city is fluctuating. It was highest in 2001 and lowest in

1971. To decrease the dependency ratio more economic activities should be promoted in the near

future. It is shown by table 19 and fig. 7

3.7 WARD WISE DEPENDENCY RATIO

The dependency ratio in city is 46.4%. Ward wise dependency ratio is shown by table 20 There are 26

wards which are having dependency ratio below 30% and it represents walled city with some other

wards. Inspite of having large number of wards it comprise area of 1418 hectares. There are 8 wards

which are having dependency ratio above 45% and these wards are located in periphery of the city

except ward no. 11, 26, 27 and 28. The dependency ratio in walled city is lower because the growth of

the city started from here and people are engaged in various commercial activities. The dependency

ratio is higher in ward no. 1, 4, 8 and 26 due to lower literacy rate. The wards which are having

population above 11000 shows higher dependency rate.

3.7 CONCLUSION

Udaipur is medium sized town according to UDPFI guidelines. All planned and unplanned

development comes along the public/semi-public areas and along the major roads. Landuse of the city

is not according to the UDPFI guidelines as residential area is higher than guidelines and parks and

open spaces are very less than guidelines. In Udaipur planned development is less than 10% city grows

in an unplanned manner. As the people come here for employment so due to migration of peoples, it

will affect the existing infrastructure. So there is need to work on infrastructure and on parks and open

spaces. Lack of awareness of rules and regulations. The population of the city is increasing at steady

rate. The growth rate of city indicates that population is growing at decreasing rate. It is city of low

density corridor having density of 67 persons/hectare in 2011. The highest density is in walled city

which leads to congestion and more pressure on infrastructural facilities. With the increase in

population sex ratio, literacy rate and workers engaged in different economic activities also increasing.

The large part of the population is engaged in tertiary activities. The city shows high dependency ratio,

which reflects there is need of providing more economic activities.
