1.3 Morphology of Warangal Municipal Corporation (WMC) Area

Warangal Municipal Corporation (WMC) is a tri-city comprising of the areas of

Kazipet , Hanamkonda and Warangal. While Kazipet is the railway center with the

location of the locomotive sheds, Hanamkonda is the central part of the tri-city

with predominantly educational institutions and the new residential and

commercial areas developing around it. Warangal is the oldest of the three, with

predominantly wholesale business and commerce activities and the historic

Warangal fort in its midst.

The current trend is that Hanamkonda, the central part is emerging as a premier

destination of specialized medical, health and multi-specialty hospital services

along with modern shopping malls and complexes for the vast hinterland with

concentration of these around the new city and suburban bus station. The limits

of Warangal Municipal Corporation encompass this tri-city and presently

admeasures about 80 sq km. This tri-city is linear in structure and lies on either

side of the major transport corridor by way of the Hyderabad National Highway

(NH-202) forming the central spine and is connected by roads and railways to all

parts of the country. Due to its proximity to Hyderabad (134 km), the area is

important especially around the NH -202 corridor in its south western part. The

city is the headquarters of the Warangal district and is the oldest Municipal

Corporation in the Telangana region. The city is well known for its educational

and institutional facilities. It is also one of the biggest centers of trade in rice and

cotton in the region.

1.4 Non-Municipal area of KUDA area

The area covered by the non-municipal area of Kakatiya (Warangal)

Development Area is basically rural in character and dependent on agriculture

and allied activities. However, as growth trends show, many of the Revenue

villages surrounding the Warangal Municipal Corporation are showing signs of

rapid development in view of the private land availability. Besides this, a number

of skilled craftsmen are involved in handicrafts and metal works in the villages in

this region. The present trend is location of numerous engineering college

campuses like KITS, Vagdevi Group of institutions, SR Engineering College,

etc.outside the WMC area especially along the Karimnagar State Highway.

1.5 Brief Historical Background

The origin of Warangal dates back to the Buddhist and the pre- Buddhist periods

of Indian history. In 8th Century A.D., Warangal (or Orukal) then served as the

main centre of activities of the Yadava king, Tuluva in the Telangana region. From

middle of the 12th Century for almost two hundred years, this area was ruled by

the Kakatiyas making Warangal as their capital city.

The three stages of significant historical developments in this region are:

1. Kakatiya Period (1260 - 1422 A.D.)

The Kakatiyas ruled over a small territory near the area which is the present

existing Warangal City. The administration of the kingdom was organized with

emphasis on military, safety and protection. There were ramparts or burj towards

the outer limits of the kingdom like Hasanparthi, Prembarthi, Kondaparthi,



Pag

e7

Kaniparthi, etc. On the other hand, the Kakatiya dynasty expressed itself best

through promotion of religious art and culture and architecture like the

Thousand Pillared Temple at Hanamkonda, the large Shiv Temple complex at

Innole (V), etc.

2. Mughal Transition Period (1422 - 1725 A.D.)

The disastrous fall of the Kakatiya kingdom at the hands of the Muslims during

the 14th Century brought in the Muslim era of rulership to this region. An

independent Muslim kingdom under the Bahamani dynasty was established in

South India by Allah-ud-din Hasan Gangu by revolting and separating from the

Delhi Sultanate. Similarly in the neighbouring Hyderabad, the Qutb Shahi dynasty

became a separate kingdom until the conquest and annexation by the Mughals

under Aurangzeb. Warangal and its surroundings too came under the Mughal rule

in this period, with a governor overseeing the affairs of this region called Deccan.

3. Asif Jahi (Nizam) Period (1725 - 1948 A.D.)

In 1722, the Governor of Deccan, Nizam-ul-Mulk, Asif Jah, declared independence

from the separating from the Mughal empire, and this dynasty ruled till 1748.This

was followed by a long line of Nizams and buying peace with the British Empire by

way of numerous treaties, till India became independent in 1947, whereupon and

subsequently, this region became part of the newly constituted Andhra Pradesh

State.

1.6 Brief review of the Warangal City Revised Master Plan - 1971-91

A Master Plan for Warangal Town was first prepared and notified in 26-10-1949.



Pag

e8

This Plan was revised in 1961.Subsequently, the Master Plan was again revised

by the Director of Town Planning, Government of Andhra Pradesh in 1971 for the

period of 1971-1991, covering an area of about 20732.78 acres (84 sqkm.) of

land for a projected population of 4,21,200 in 1991. The said Revised Master

Plan was approved and notified by the Government vide G O Ms No. 910, M.A.

25-11-1971. (Refer Annexure III).

The major development activities suggested in the said Revised Master Plan

included large scale land acquisition and taking up of development schemes,

housing schemes, slum clearance schemes, industrial area development,

industrial housing, augmentation of public utilities and community facilities for

the new areas, and various circulation network proposals to tackle the traffic

problems. One of the major proposals was formation of a Bypass road (bypass to

the Hyderabad -Warangal Highway) on north of Warangal and allied facilities.

This Revised Master Plan could be implemented only to a limited extent mainly

in terms of the basic circulation network in the Warangal Municipal Corporation

area, while the proposals outside the Warangal Municipal Corporation limits by

way of taking up various development schemes, intended large scale land

acquisition for various projects and schemes, development of new industrial

areas and land developments proposed have largely been remained

unimplemented. On the other hand, and in the meantime, organic residential

developments especially in the north and east have taken place rendering the

Master Plan land uses and circulation ineffective.

1.7 Requirement of preparation of Master Plan for entire Kakatiya



Pag

e9

Development Area:

(i) Viewing the statutory reality of the Kakatiya (Warangal Development Area ,

the above shortcomings in ensuring planned development, there is every

need for preparation and enforcement of Master Plan keeping in view the

above City Revised Master Plan, the developments that have come up on

ground despite the Master Plan, the ground realities, and the changing

scenario.

(ii) Section 6 of the AP Urban Areas (Development) Act,1975 mandates the

KUDA to undertake preparation of the Master Plan for the Kakatiya

Development Area, viz.

The Authority shall as soon as may be, carry out a civic survey and prepare a

Master Plan for the development area concerned.

The Master Plan shall

(a) define the various zones into which the development area may be divided for

the purposes of development and indicate the manner in which the land in each

zone is proposed to be used (either after carrying out development thereon or

otherwise) and the stages by which any such development shall be carried out;

and

(b) serve as a basic pattern of framework within which the zonal development

plans of the various zones may be prepared.

(iii) A Master Plan is thus a long-term perspective plan for guiding the growth



Pag

e10

and development of the prime city and its hinterland delineated as Kakatiya

Development Area by the Government. It envisages and elaborates along

with narrations, maps/ plans, a broad concept of development. The Master

plan lays down allocation of land between various competing uses keeping

in view the space requirements in future.

(iv) Thus, this Master Plan is an important framework and pre-requisite for

promoting and ensuring balanced and sustained growth of the prime city of

Warangal and its urban spread (which includes the proposed Greater

Warangal Municipal Corporation Area), keeping in view the growth trends

and form and structure of the prime city.

(v) The earlier Warangal City Revised Master Plan lays the foundation for this

present Master Plan covering Warangal and its urban spread.

This Master Plan is with plan period upto 2031 and is for the total Kakatiya

Development Area (KUDA area) of 1805 sq. km and is prepared as required

under the said Andhra Pradesh Urban Areas (Development) Act,1975 and as

per the instructions of the Government and advise of DTCP. (Refer

Annexure-IV)

CHAPTER - 2

DEMOGRAPHY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TRENDS

2.0 Scope of this Master Plan:

This Master Pan undertaken as per the above-mentioned section 6 of the Andhra

Pradesh Urban Areas (Development) Act,1975 , is a basic plan that gives a

framework for all future development. Therefore, this Master Plan consists of:

1 A broad land development map

2 Primary and Secondary Circulation network

3 Development Promotion Stipulations

based on which, further detailing by way of

1 implementation strategies,

2 Zonal Development Plans,

3 specific projects housing strategy, tourism development, central area/

special area development, etc

4 open space development and environmental conservation, R & R,

5 industrial promotion and development,

6 augmentation and extension of physical infrastructure facilities like water

supply, drainage and sewerage, electricity and communications



Pag

is required under the said Act to be undertaken by the various functional

agencies and service providers.

Hence these aspects are not detailed out in this Master Plan. For further

detailing out of the same, 18 Planning Zones have been delineated accordingly,

and suggested in the Master Plan in Section 3.10. and separate Zonal

development Plans are separately required to be undertaken by KUDA as

mandated under Section 7 of the A P Urban Areas (Development ) Act,1975.

2.1 Population Growth:

1. Warangal City

The total population of Warangal city was 5.3 lakhs in 2001 which increased to

6.3 lakhs in 2011, registering a decadal growth of about 19 %. The growth rate

of the city is thus average.

The existing average population density in Warangal city is highest in the

Warangal old city core and Hanamkonda with about 263 persons per Ha, while

rest of the city is below 110 persons per ha.

The average literacy rate of Warangal City is about 73.7 percent and the average

sex ratio is 968 females per thousand males, which is comparable with other 2-

tier cities of the State, and indicates a steady urbanization trend in this region.

The population share of Warangal City is about 48.42 % of the total population

of the Kakatiya Development area. This shows that the immediate villages

surrounding Warangal are growing at a modest rate.



Pag

e13

2.2 Urban Spread (Greater Warangal Municipal Corporation area):

In view of the above modest growth trends of the surroundings, the Warangal

Municipal Corporation has undertaken a detailed study for delineation of the

urban spread area of Warangal based on development trends, for the purposes

of extending the limits of the present Municipal Corporation limits (which is

under active consideration of the Government). It covers an area of about 513

sq km including the present Corporation limits of about 80 sq km. It is larger

than the Census urban agglomeration area of about 200 sq km. The population

of this urban spread as per 2001 Census was 7,33,278 while it was 8,75,242 as

per 2011 Census, registering a decadal growth of 19.36 %. The share of urban

spread is about 67.30 % of the total population of the Kakatiya Development

area.

(A) Existing land use in Warangal Municipal Corporation Area:

As stated above, the urban spread of Warangal and the Kakatiya Development

Area, is by and large rural in character and the uninhabited lands in the entire

KDA area is very large.

Barren land occupies the maximum of 28.10%, followed by agriculture land,

24.02 %, fallow land, 16.12% and scrub, 18.94% (both dense and open). Water

bodies comprising of tanks/ ponds, rivers, canals etc. is 5.32% (96.02 sq km).

Forest land, mostly under reserved forests and hills occupies 0.87% (15.72 sq km).

Land under residential use is only 5.95% (107.40 sq km). All together, developed

land use is around 35% (630 sq km).

priority and by promoting various economic and development activities

3.2 FUTURE GROWTH DIRECTIONS:

1st priority growth Direction: (Very strong) In the West along the Warangal-

Hyderabad National Highway from Hanamkonda junction till the limits of

Kakatiya Development Area encouraging Multiple Use and manufacturing

activities especially expansion of Madikonda and Rampur areas ;

2nd priority growth direction: (Strong) in the east along the National Highway

upto Atmakur-encouraging Multiple Use and new proposed Truck Terminal

at Kothapet and support storage and agriculture/food product activities;

3rd priority growth direction: (Moderate) Along the Karimnagar Highway upto

Elkathurthi Mandal headquarters-mostly encouraging educational and

institutional developments

4th priority growth direction (Weak) Along the Khammam Highway upto KUDA

limits encouraging townships and Truck terminal and transportation

related activities.

3.3 Viewing the above trend of developments, the existing structure of Warangal

City and surroundings, the existing land use and circulation network that

have developed mostly organically, and the necessity for ensuring the above

envisaged planned development, this Master Plan only outlines the basic

development strategy based on the following:



Pag

e26

(a) Warangal city and surrounding areas by way of urban spread would be a

compact urban agglomeration, with the Hyderabad National Highway

central to the urban spread and continue to be acting as the central spine of

major and higher order developments of the Development Area;

(b) The remaining areas of Kakatiya Development Area would continue to

exhibit rural character and be predominantly have agricultural activities.

(c) Warangal agglomeration in particular and the KUDA Area in general are in

proximity of the Hyderabad Metropolitan Region, and thus the impact of

Hyderabad and its surroundings would continue to influence the

developments and growth direction of KUDA Area. In the regional context,

Warangal and KUDA Area can be termed and developed as a counter-

magnet to Hyderabad Metropolitan Region given the proximity and the

strong transportation linkages between the two. The Committee on

decongestion of Hyderabad constituted vide G O Ms No.270 M.A. dated 7-

3-1994 and headed by the Chief Secretary to Government had suggested

for planned dispersal of population and decentralization of economic

activities in the surrounding district towns like Warangal, Mehboobnagar,

Nizamabad, Zaheerabad, Karimnagar, etc. The Master Plan takes into

account this regional location and has factored the same by way of making

provisions for encouraging new residential activities and some of the

emerging employment potentialities by way of Information Technology

enabled Services (ITES) towards both sides i.e., the north and south of the

National Highway No.163 in the KUDA Master Plan ;



Pag

e27

(d) This is an all-out pro-development plan, keeping the vast development

potential of Warangal and its urban spread in view. Hence, instead of

proposing a rigid and mono-characteristic land uses, and plot specific /site

specific land use and zoning, a broad range and spectrum of development

uses and activities are proposed in not only in the urban spread but also in

the Agriculture Zone albeit, in a scaled down manner.

(e) This Master Plan proposes a strong and definite structure by way of a grid

type circulation network which would be to not only ensure hierarchy of

development activities and ensure smooth and efficient movement but also

serve the other infrastructure network for water supply, drainage,

sewerage, electricity and communications.

(f) The first order development proposals are confined to the main Warangal

city and its urban spread comprising of the 50 adjoining villages as given in

the Table No.2.

(f) Activities in rest of the Development Area:

Apart from the main and predominant agriculture and allied activities, certain

support activities are allowed in this Agriculture Use Zone the details of which

are given in the Section on Development Promotion Stipulations.

3.4 Master Plan Strategy:

Viewing-

(i) the trend of developments,



Pag

e28

(ii) the existing structure of Warangal City and its surroundings,

(iii) the existing land use and circulation network that have developed

mostly organically,

(iv) the decision to delimit the present Municipal Corporation into Greater

Warangal Municipal Corporation encompassing a large area of about

512 sq km.,

(v) and the necessity for ensuring planned development,

- this Master Plan outlines a basic development strategy, based on the

above trends and Vision for the Kakatiya Development Area in general and

Warangal urban spread in particular.

- Warangal city and surrounding areas by way of urban spread covering the

proposed Greater Warangal Municipal Corporation, would be a compact

urban agglomeration, with the Hyderabad National Highway central to the

urban spread and continue to be acting as the central spine of major and

higher order developments of the Development Area;

- The remaining areas of Kakatiya Development Area would continue to

exhibit rural character and be predominantly having agricultural activities.

3.4.1 This is an all-out pro-development plan, keeping the vast development

potential of Warangal and its urban spread in view. Hence, instead of

proposing a rigid and mono-characteristic land uses, and plot specific /site

specific land use and zoning, a broad range and spectrum of development

uses and activities are proposed in not only in the urban spread but also in

the Agriculture Zone albeit, in a scaled down manner.



Pag

e29

3.4.2 Making proper utilization of the Government Lands located within KUDA

Area:

Out of the total available government lands, about 5000 acres located in

conducive and strategic locations are identified and proposed to be utilized for

development of-

(a) area-level parks and playgrounds,

b) lake-front development and environment conservation,

(c ) Special Projects and Land bank repository in KUDA,

(d) sites for public utilities and facilities and

(e) for important Work centers and future industrialization.

This task of facilitation and planned development through Projectisation of the

above, is to be undertaken by the Master Plan Steering Committee, headed by

the Collector, Warangal.

3.4.3 Activities in rest of the Development Area:

Apart from the main and predominant agriculture and allied activities, certain

support activities that are important to the development of the Kakatiya

Development Area are allowed in this Agriculture Use Zone the details of which

are given in the Section on Development Promotion Stipulations.

3.5 Overall Circulation Pattern:



Pag

e30

This Master Plan proposes a strong and definite structure by way of a grid type

circulation network which would be to not only ensure hierarchy of development

activities and ensure smooth and efficient movement but also serve the other

public utilities and infrastructure network for water supply, drainage, sewerage,

electricity and communications.

The first order development proposals are confined to the main Warangal city

and its urban spread covering the Greater Warangal Municipal Corporation and

as given in the Table No. 2.

3.5.1 Keeping in view the Circulation pattern suggested in the Master Plan of

1971, the existing road pattern, the trend of developments and the propensity

for future growth and direction of growth, the Circulation pattern in this Master

Plan 2031 has been suggested, basically in grid pattern format that can be go on

being extended further in the Kakatiya Development area in future.

Apart from the above, there is a National Highway Bypass alignment being

undertaken by the Roads and Buildings Department towards the North of

Warangal City which takes off from the National Highway No. 163 (Warangal-

Hyderabad Highway) from Rampur (V) on the west and passes through

Dharamsagaram (V), Devanna Peta (V),Chinta gattu(V),Vangapadu(V) and joins

the said National Highway of Mulugu stretch at Arepalle (V).

3.5.2 The structure of Warangal urban spread has become radial concentric with

Hanamkonda as the nucleus of development and the following highways and

main roads radiating out, viz.



Pag

e31

1 Warangal Karimnagar State Highway;

2 Warangal-Hasanparthi Main road;

3 National Highway to Mulugu;

4 Warangal-Narsampet Highway;

5 Warangal-Khammam Highway;

6 Warangal-Zaffergadh Main Road respectively.

This is contained through the Master Plan Northern Ring Road and eastern Ring

road passing through before Madikonda, and along Somidi, Bhimavaram,

Pavelupula, Paidipally, Desaipet, Gorrekunta, eastern side of Warangal Fort, and

then meeting the Khammam highway near Rangashaipet within the WMC limits.

Keeping the above structure in view, the Circulation pattern is integrated by

continuing the same and extending towards the south and west of Warangal in

this Master Plan 2031. The Circulation network consists of a well-defined grid of

Primary Roads, Secondary Roads arterial roads, and Ring roads/ Bypass roads.

The following are the Primary proposed network:

3.5.3 Primary Circulation Network:

The Primary Circulation network comprises of all existing highways, the

proposed ring roads, loop roads, grid roads that define the various sectors and

other major roads. These are 30 meters and above in width. These form the

basis for the future mass transit system by way of a light rail system which is

recommended in this Master Plan .

3.5.4 The Secondary Network

The secondary circulation network basically comprises of link roads and new

roads linking the various above-mentioned Primary roads. These are numerous

within the Warangal City limits and equally distributed in the non-municipal

urban spread area. The Right-of-way of these Secondary roads ranges from 30

meters to 18 meters.

3.5.5 Existing Villages roads

The existing village roads especially in the rest of the KUDA Area would continue

to be serving as the network between the villages, the Mandal Headquarters and

Warangal as well as the villages. These are forming part of the secondary network

and are minimum 18 meters in width.

3.5.6 Sub-arterial and feeder roads network:

These roads network form an important component of circulation within the



Pag

e34

localities and colonies. These are basically at layout level and the range varies

from 18 metres to 6 meters. These are not indicated in the Master Plan, but have

a bearing on allowing the level of development activities in the areas which are

more specifically given in the development promotion regulations and the revised

common building rules, 2012.

3.6 Mass Transit System for Warangal:

3.6.1 MRTS for Warangal:

This Master Plan advocates the development and operation of suitable mass

rapid transit system (MRTS) for Warangal. All the primary roads designated in

the Master Plan would be the mass transit corridors. However, to begin with

the Primary roads covered within the Warangal Municipal Corporation limits

would be required to be taken up for the route planning, etc. Since rail based

mass transit system would be capital-intensive, in the first instance, a Bus

Rapid Transit System (with exclusive bus lanes) may be planned and designed

with APSRTC being responsible for the design, operations and maintenance. In

the second phase, the mass transit system should switch over to a

combination of BRTS and Light Rail Transit System along the Primary and

secondary circulation system identified in the Master Plan, with the active

cooperation of the State and Central Governments.

3.6.2 MRTS proposal between Hyderabad and Warangal:

Keeping in view the proximity of the Kakatiya Development area to the

Hyderabad Metropolitan region, it is but natural that the pull factor of



Pag

e35

Hyderabad would be markedly increasing in times to come. The number of

daily commuters is ever increasing. Viewing this trend, this Master Plan

advocates the development of an exclusive and dedicated Mass Transit System

either adjoining to the existing BG Railway line through the South Central

railway or alternatively, between Hyderabad and Warangal along the National

Highway No 202 under the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Tramway

Act,2008, with a 18 meters Right of way up till Ghanpur and from there the

alignment follows adjacent to the existing Railway line towards the east and

south of the railway line at Warangal to terminate beyond Warangal at

Dharmaram. This proposal needs to be examined by the State Government

since it involves Hyderabad metropolitan region and Warangal Development

area and also the need for integrating the intra-city movement between these

two largest urban agglomerations in the region.

3.7 Other transportation proposals:

The other traffic and transport proposals would flow out of the above basic

circulation network and structure, viz.,

A Truck Terminal has been proposed at Arepalli(V) which would be useful to

cater to the North-bound traffic as well as the Enumamaula Agriculture

market nearby.

A second truck terminal has been proposed at Thimmapur (V) along the

junction of the Ring Road and the Radial Road from Battupalli in the south.

This would cater to the traffic coming and going to the South towards

Khammam and beyond.



Pag

e36

A freight container and logistics hub at Hasanparthi next to the hasanparthi

railway station in the north, since this has regional impact.

Further, new and other transportation facilities that are likely to come up in

future would be encouraged in the Master plan. These traffic and

transportation proposals shall be part of the Master Plan implementation

and therefore are allowed as a policy in all development use zones in the

zoning regulations.

3.9 Need for development of Basic Industries development for Warangal:

Excepting for the Railway Diesel Loco Shed at Kazipet, at present, there are no

basic industries in Warangal. Being the third largest agglomeration in the State,

certain basic industrial activities, which are anchor industries, are required for

Warangal to increase the industrial base. This would give rise to other support



Pag

e38

and ancillary including tertiary sector activities besides generating large scale

employment opportunities. Since these involve political decisions and capital

investments by the Government/public agencies, these are not predictable.

Hence no specific areas for these have been earmarked specifically in the Master

Plan. It would be the endeavour of the State Government and Central

Government and the main departments like APIDC, APIIC, APSFC, Infrastructure

Authority, and the Information Technology Department to bring in and promote

such anchor and basic industrial activities and major jobs creating activities in the

Kakatiya Development Area . Hence, instead, enabling provisions for facilitating

and siting these in the Kakatiya Development Area have been incorporated in the

development regulations.

3.10 Development of a Freight Container and Logistics Hub at Hasanparthi:

Warangal is strategically located vis--vis the railway network of the country. It is

truly a gateway to south India. Before Kazipet and Warangal junctions two main

railway lines branch out one towards Hyderabad and the second straight

towards Vijayawada. One of the strategic locations suggested is around

Hasanparthi Station. The proposed National Highway bypass alignment passes

through south of Hasanparthi. Hence it would be appropriate that a freight

container cum logistics hub be developed at Hasanparthi over an extent of about

300 acres by the active participation of the South Central Railway, the Container

Corporation of India and the private land owners under PPP mode. This would be

a major economic base for Warangal.

In the next railway station at Uppal (border of KDA limits) there is already a



Pag

e39

private freight storage facility. The above proposal would give a fillip to the

agriculture produce and mineral wealth of the area.

3.11 Generation of public open spaces, and sites for amenities and utilities:

As the urban agglomeration increases the demand for public open spaces , siting

and development of amenities and public utility areas become crucial for

ensuring the quality of life. Since these are demand driven, no specific sites or

plots, unlike in the past plans (where specific sites mostly in private lands have

been marked and not implemented ), have been indicated. It is the responsibility

of both the Warangal Municipal Corporation and KUDA to generate these

facilities and areas by way of land assemblage permissions, and siting and

developing these in Government lands as indicated in Annexure . Hence Land

Pooling Schemes should be encouraged by these two premier public agencies

(KUDA and WMC) in a big way, and the procedure should be development-

friendly through licensed developers, so that apart from Government lands,

sizeable chunks of plots for the above are generated by way of land pooling

scheme approvals.

3.12 Out of the total available government lands, about 5000 acres located in

conducive and strategic locations are identified and proposed to be utilized for

development of-

(a) area-level parks and playgrounds,

b) lake-front development and environment conservation,



Pag

e40

(c ) Special Projects and Land bank repository in KUDA,

(f) sites for public utilities and facilities and

(g) for important Work centers and future industrialization.

This task of facilitation and planned development through Projectisation of the

above, is to be undertaken by the Master Plan Steering Committee, headed by

the Collector, Warangal.

Section 26 of the AP Urban Areas (Development) Act,1975 stipulates that all



Pag

e41

vacant Government lands should be placed at the disposal of the Urban

Development Authority and the first and basic responsibility of the Urban

Development Authority shall be to facilitate organized public open spaces and

public utilities sites. Then only the lands for other Master Plan functions should

be utilized. In the absence of the above, earmarking sites specifically for open

spaces and public utilities in private lands becomes a futile exercise. Hence no

specific areas excepting the heritage and open spaces zones that are

environmentally critical for their protection and preservation, have been

indicated in the Master Plan. These have to be generated as stated above by the

two premier development agencies at the time of land development permissions

and in those existing areas out of available public lands. In this regard, in the

Kakatiya Development Area there are good number of vacant Government lands

which can be utilized and developed for the above purpose. An inventory of such

Government lands has been undertaken and their utilization indicated and

enclosed at Annexure III .

The Master Plan Steering Committee is required to create a Land bank with these

identified Government lands and undertake their development of public

amenities and facilities besides creation of new work centers and new integrated

townships specifically indicated through KUDA,WMC and APIIC. KUDA should be

the repository of the land bank.

3.12 Division of Development Area into Planning Zones:

(i) As required under the Act, and for the purpose of detailed planning and

implementation, the urban spread area mentioned above is divided into 18



Pag

e42

Planning Zones (5 Planning zones within the existing Warangal Municipal

Coprporation area and 6 Planning zones in the rest of the urban spread area

and 7 zones for the Mandal Headquarters areas) keeping the physical

characteristics and development trends in view for which detailed Zonal

Development Plans are required to be undertaken keeping in view the overall

framework of the Master Plan in view. These Zonal Development Plans are

required to be undertaken under the aegis of Section 7 of the A P Urban

Areas (Development) Act,1975 and are basically meant to be action plans,

plans for development of the various areas (area development plans) and

implementation plans and not just detailing out specific land uses.

(ii) It may be noted that the rest of the Kakatiya Development Area, excepting for

the Mandal Headquarters, is not categorized into planning zones since this is

primarily an agriculture tract wherein basically agriculture and allied activities

are expected to be predominant.

The following are the proposed 18 Planning zones for the Kakatiya Development

Area:

PART III

MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT

PROMOTION STIPULATIONS



Pag

e47

4. PROPOSED MASTER PLAN ZONING AND DEVELOPMENT PROMOTION

STIPULATIONS

(i) The main purpose of the Master Plan Development Promotion Stipulations,

which are integral part of the Master Plan-2031, is to ensure that all

development activities are undertaken under the aegis of the Master Plan

and to guide the same in accordance with planning norms and standards.

(ii) The Proposals allow individual development activities on the basis of

people-activities-places philosophy- the Master Plan is development

friendly with safeguards/ conditionalities of allowing certain higher order

activities so that these are neither in conflict or contradictory to the zoning

of development regulations nor contradict town planning norms and

principles.

(iii) The land development and development promotion stipulations should

have development-friendly regulations consisting of: zoning stipulations

based on functional criteria; the land development stipulations

encompassing all types of land development; and lastly but not the least

the building promotion activities and stipulations (customizing the latest

Andhra Pradesh Common Building Rules,2012 in respect of Kakatiya

Development Area (Warangal), so that all these are one single consolidated

manual which is part of the Master Plan.

(iv) The land use categorization is therefore not a rigid one but one that allows

compatible uses and those activities that require higher level of planning

inputs, site and locational requirements and scrutiny and these are grouped

under permissible by the Competent Authority under Appeal Clause. The

land development in the Kakatiya Development Area in this Master Plan



Pag

e48

2031 is categorized as follows:

1 General Development Promotion Zone (GDPZ)

2 Multiple Use Zone (MUZ)

3 Public & Semi-Public Use Zone (PSPUZ)

4 Heritage and Open Space Zone (HOSZ)

5 Agriculture Zone (AZ)

4.1 The above-mentioned land development categorization are as follows:

(i) There is a definite distinction between allowing activities and uses in the

Warangal Urban Spread area and rest of the Kakatiya Development Area

which is generally categorized as Agriculture Zone. While in the urban

spread area (which covers Warangal Municipal Corporation area and 50

surrounding villages) allows primarily residential colonies and attendant

support activities, the agriculture zone is primarily the rural tract wherein

agriculture and allied activities are predominant and retained. However,

this does not mean that other activities are not allowed in this agriculture

tract. While preserving the good and fertile cultivable lands, agricultural

support activities like agro-based units, storage godowns, brick kilns, self

supporting educational and other institutions as a conscious policy are also

allowed in non-fertile lands/dry lands. The basic idea is to allow limited and

self-contained sparse developments, keeping the rural character in view.

(ii) Thus, in the urban spread area, under General Development Promotion

Zone, although this is meant for all types of residential activities and

buildings, the accessory uses and activities like local shops, institutions like



Pag

e49

schools, medical centers, etc are also allowed. These are further governed

by locational and site requirements as given in the Revised Common

Building Rules issued by the Government. Likewise, under Multiple Use

zone excepting for obnoxious and hazardous industrial and similar

activities, all types of residential, commercial, institutional, educational and

general and service industries are permissible.

(iii) As stated earlier, departing from the conventional Master Plans, the land

use and zoning of activities in this Master Plan are neither site specific nor

plot specific. Instead, these have been made area specific, so as to give a

certain freedom and flexibility on one hand and without compromising the

general planning principles in view.

4.2 The Master Plan Development Promotion Stipulations are as follows:
