A General Profile of Muzaffarpur City

Muzaffarpur, “the Land of Leechi” was created in 1860s for administrative convenience by splitting

up the erstwhile district of Tirhut. The present town of Muzaffarpur came into existence in the 18th

century and was named after Muzaffar Khan, an Amil (Revenue Officer) under British Dynasty.

Muzaffarpur is the administrative headquarter of Muzaffarpur District. The total area under the

jurisdiction of Muzaffarpur Municipal Corporation (MMC) is about 26.68 Km2 (2668.44 Ha).

According to 2011 Census, the city has a population of 351,607 with 65,870 households. The city

is divided into 49 wards. Muzaffarpur lies between the Burhi Gandak River and Furdoo Nallah. The

municipal area has been further divided into eight administrative and sanitation circles.

Muzaffarpur has several industries. Prabhat Zarda Factory, Bharat Wagon and Engineering Ltd.,

Bihar Drugs and Organic Chemicals Ltd., Muzaffarpur – a unit of IDPL, units of Leather

Development Corporation, Muzaffarpur Dairy, a unit of the Bihar State Dairy Corporation, thermal

power plant (at present defunct) are the major industries located in Muzaffarpur and its periphery.

The above industries have generated considerable employment and have also been helpful in

establishing a number of small industries including a few cottage industries. The most important

item that is manufactured in Muzaffarpur town is railway wagon. Muzaffarpur town is an important

centre for the wholesale cloth trade. Agro-based Industries are also established in the town.

Muzaffarpur has few potential tourist sites like the Baba Garibnath Temple, Chaturbhujsthan

Temple, Gola Durga Temple, Bangla Mukhi Temple, Pankha Toli Temple, Bishops’ House Church

and European Church apart from litchi plantation/ orchards.1

The city has experienced rapid population growth in the last four decades - from 54,139 in 1951 to

305,525 in 2001 and 351,607 in 2011. The average decadal growth rate has been 28%. There was

56% upsurge in the town’s population growth in 1971-81, thereafter, the growth has stabilised.

According to 2011 census, the average population density is 131.

In 2001 civic election, the number of wards increased from 22 to 36 in Muzaffarpur Municipal

Corporation. It was further increased to 49 wards as of today. After 2011 election there were 23

male councillors and 26 female councillors.

A General Poverty Profile of Muzaffarpur City

The Bihar state slum Policy 2011, defines a slum is “a compact area of at least 20 'slum like

households' of poorly built congested tenements, in unhygienic e n v i r onmen t u sua l l y with

i nad equa te i n f ras t ruc tu re and l a ck i ng p rope r sanitation and drinking water facilities”.

The essential characteristic of the slums and slum like inhabitation as laid out in the state slum

policy are as:

High overall household density and predominantly small plot/house; high occupancy rate,

single-room houses, cohabitation by two or more families.

Inadequate availability of settlement level infrastructure - street lighting, storm water

drainage, garbage collection and predominance of narrow and kutcha streets and

inadequate access to education and basic health care facilities.

Study Report

The informal settlements are scattered across all 49 wards of the city. However, in Ward No. 17,

34 and 38 the concentration of informal settlements is higher. These are also the old habitations

and primarily inhabited by migrant labour communities.

The informal settlements in Muzaffarpur exhibit characteristics such as lack of provision of

minimum basic infrastructure, viz. sanitation facility, drainage system, solid waste management,

etc. Most informal settlements are dependent on hand pumps for water supply and a large majority

practice of open defecation. Absence of drainage system and solid waste management results in

unhealthy and unhygienic living conditions.

The urban poor in Muzaffarpur mainly work as labourers and in other informal trades such as

vending vegetables and fruits, as cycle-rickshaw pullers, etc. According to 2011 census there were

105 informal settlements with a population of 31,607 with 5,292 households in the city whereas

the survey conducted by SPUR Programme of state government in 2011, identified 137 informal

settlement having a total of 77,456 population and 7,035 BPL families. However officially MMC has

notified 105 slums as per the definition and characteristics laid out in the State Slum Policy 2011

(Annex.2). The access to basic services such as health, education, water and sanitation in

Muzaffarpur city to the urban poor residing in these informal settlements is limited.

Methodology for Listing of Informal Settlements The process of mapping informal settlements started with gathering secondary data from different

sources and studying the data for better understanding of the city. The secondary data included

list of notified slums (from Muzaffarpur Municipal Corporation), 2011 Census Reports, City

Development Plan of Muzaffarpur and other reports prepared under JNNURM.

It also involved a number of interactions with various stakeholders in the city. The stakeholders

included Muzaffarpur Municipal Corporation officials and councillors, ex-councillors, and

community leaders. PRIA team also interacted with media representatives working on smart city

and sanitation issues and different NGOs working in the city. These stakeholder interactions and

analysis of secondary data have helped PRIA team in understanding the city and identifying and

locating the locations of informal settlements in the city.

Right in the beginning, the elected councillor of a particular ward was informed about the purpose

of listing and mapping of informal settlements. The PRIA team members visited and interacted with

the ex-councillors as well as other contestants in the last civic election for seeking information

about the informal settlements and about the active citizens in the informal settlements.

The Anganwadi Centre in an informal settlement is engaged in a lot of activities. The team

consulted the Anganwadi workers which proved to be helpful in identifying the development issues

in informal settlement and the active women groups and youth in the community. A good

relationship with Anganwadi workers also enabled the team to interact candidly with the

community.

The existing community based organisations / associations, youth groups and religious groups

were identified and approached. Some of the community meeting places like shops, tea stalls,

gardens and community centres were also visited. These were the places where the community

people engaged in informal discussions which proved to be good sources of information. A visit to

these places gave a good idea about the community people and happenings in the community.

The team also facilitated a set of Participatory Urban Appraisal tools such as Transect Walk

through informal settlements, conducting Focus Group Discussions, Informal Interviews, Social

and Resource Mapping. During these interactions, the information was collected and verified from

the informal settlement residents.

The relevant information about each informal settlement was collected in a format which is

presented in Annex.1.

Status of Informal Settlements in Muzaffarpur Status of informal settlements

The mapping process identified a total of 105 informal settlements. Out of 105 informal settlements

97% were notified and 3% were non-notified informal settlements. The non-notified informal

settlements were located in Ward No. 10 (IB Mohalla), Ward No. 39 (Bhavani Singh Market) and

Ward No. 30 (Aghoriya Bazar Chauk).

Study Report

Ownership of informal settlement lands

Sixty eight percent (71) informal settlements were located on private land, 12 percent (13) were

located on municipal lands, 12 percent (13) were located on the lands belonged to the state

government, 4 percent (4) were located on lands belonged to railways. Four percent informal

settlements were located on other categories of lands belonged to institutions such as Wakf Boards

and others. These lands were donated to the residents of informal settlements a long ago,

however, they did not have any legal papers such as deed of registration, deed of gift, or mutation

of land.

It was important to understand the surrounding areas of the informal settlements in order to develop

appropriate strategies for enhancing access to services or entitlements as these had social and

legal implications. Ninety percent (95) informal settlements were surrounded by the residential

area. Seven percent (7) informal settlements were surrounded by commercial area and 3 percent

informal settlements were surrounded by other slums.

Type of physical location of informal settlements in Muzaffarpur

It was important to have an understanding on the physical location of the informal settlements as

these locations have had serious implications on the tenability issues. Seventy one percent (74)

informal settlements in Muzaffarpur were located on the roadside, 12 percent (13) were located

alongside nallah, drain, or any other water bodies, 11 percent (12) were located along river bank

or on river bed, and 6 percent (6) along the railway track. The informal settlements located

alongside nallah/drain, river bank/river bed and railway track fall into non tenable category as per

Bihar State Slum Policy.

Locational characteristics of informal settlements in Muzaffarpur

The informal settlements in Muzaffarpur exhibited varied locational characteristics. Sixty two

percent (65) (61.90%) were located within the city centre, 23 percent (24) were located in flood

water logging prone areas either along the banks of Budi Gandak river or in low lying areas and

remaining 15 percent (16) informal settlements were located alongside city boundary of the city.

Type of structures for majority of houses in informal settlements of Muzaffarpur

Housing is one of the most critical issues among the residents of informal settlements. Only in 8

percent (8) informal settlements majority of the houses were pucca, in 21 percent (22) informal

settlements, majority of the houses were kutcha and in 71 percent (75) informal settlements

majority of the houses were semi-pucca.

Roads in informal settlements of Muzaffarpur

The informal settlements in Muzaffarpur by and large have had access to motorable pucca roads.

Seventy one percent (74) informal settlements can be approached through pucca motorable roads.

Ten percent (11) informal settlements had non-motorable pucca roads. These roads were too

narrow to accommodate vehicular traffic and only suitable for two wheelers. Eight percent (8)

informal settlements had motorable kutcha approach roads and 11 percent (12) informal

settlements had non-motorable kutcha approach roads.

The internal roads in 65 percent (68) informal settlements were pucca and 35 percent (37) informal

settlements were kutcha. However, even in majority of informal settlements where pucca internal

roads existed most would require maintenance.

Study Report

Ninety six percent (101) informal settlements were located with 500 meters from the nearest

motorable roads. Two percent (2) informal settlements were located at a distance between 500

metres to 1 kilometre and two percent (2) at a distance between 1-2 kilometres Overall, the

residents of informal settlements in Muzaffarpur have had access to motorable roads near to their

habitations which had enhanced their mobility in and around the city.

Presence of public institutions in the informal settlements of Muzaffarpur

Presence of public service delivery institutions such as anganwadi, primary and secondary

schools, PDS shops and public health centre in any settlement reflects the accessibility of these

services and quality of life of the urban poor in the city.

In 90 percent (94) informal settlements Anganwadi Centres were present. During discussion some

residents shared that due to lesser number of children in the specified age group some of the

informal settlements had common Anganwadi centre. Seventy seven percent (81) informal

settlements have had access to primary schools within or near the settlements which had been

catering the educational needs for 6-10 years children. However, only 12 percent (13) informal

settlements have had secondary or higher secondary schools. Many residents informed that they

were unable to send their children to secondary school due to distance. Thirteen percent (14)

informal settlement had primary health centres from where they could access health services. The

residents in other informal settlements were primarily dependent on private health institution and

health service providers. Eighty four percent (88) informal settlement had access to Public

Distribution System (PDS). However, discussion with the residents revealed that there were

several issues regarding timings of PDS shops, quality and frequency of supplies.

Source: SPUR, Muzaffarpur

Seventy three percent (77) informal settlements had the presence of SVS (Samajik Vikas Samiti).

The SVSs were formed by SPUR Muzaffarpur project as community based organisations of the

urban poor. These were formed to collectivise the community and to plan and implement

settlement level development activities (such as construction of toiles, installation of hand pumps,

etc.). However, discussion with the community members and ward councillors revealed that

several issues have had adversely impacted the functioning of these SVSs. Issues such as

practice of nepotism and favouritism in formation of SVSs, irregular meetings, embezzlement of

funds, etc. plagued the effective functioning of SVSs.

Study Report

Only a handful of NGOs had been working in Muzaffarpur city. However, based on the discussion

with community members, it appeared that in 41 percent (43) informal settlements some NGO

activities were present.

Challenges and Lessons Learned PRIA team started interacting and knowing about the efforts of existing community leaders.

There were many doubts and questions among the community members. The team had to

take great efforts in answering all the questions and clarifying all the doubts. At the same time

the team had to make sure that no false promises are given to the community and be clear

about facilitation role in organising the communities.

Most communities expected from PRIA as an NGO to provide some services or deliver the

government schemes. It took a long time for PRIA team to inform and educate the communities

about the project approach which intends to build capacities and organisations of the urban

poor.

There were also negative perceptions about the work of NGOs and the accessibility to

government programmes and schemes. Many community members complained that in the

past, some NGOs have organised meetings, made plans, and gave commitments. However,

they never turned up, which resulted in a breach of trust between community members and

outsiders. Building trust with communities was important task before starting community

mobilisation.

This initial phase of interaction has been followed by regular interactions with the community

leaders. These regular interactions and listening to the problems and concerns and answering

questions have been helpful for the team in establishing a good relationship with community

leaders and communities. One of the processes followed during this initial phase is inviting the

identified leaders to the PRIA office and showing around the office. During this visit, the team

gave lot of examples and success stories from other states. The continuous interactions on

the issues of informal settlement have been helpful in raising critical consciousness of both the

team and these leaders. Another issue that the team felt important was clearly communicating

that we were not from government department and there will not be any financial transactions

between the community and PRIA.

The urban poor residing in these informal settlements were mostly wage earner and it was

difficult to organise any meeting or discussion. However, many community members were

comfortable and available for meetings on Sundays. The team rescheduled timings of

meetings according to the availability of the communities.

Visiting the informal settlement on a regular basis and seeking help from these leaders for

information, taking transect walk through the informal settlement and analysing the problems

during these interactions. These efforts were made over a week before organising first meeting

with the community. In the first meeting, we made it a point to give an opportunity to these

leaders to address the gathering and validate the points or issues raised by these leaders.

These processes helped the team in successfully identifying and building a pool of community

leaders in each of settlement with whom we could work in the coming years.

The process of Identifying and locating notified and non-notified informal settlements has been

a challenge as the city is expanding in all directions. The list of notified informal settlement has

not been reviewed and updated since a long time and hence some of the notified informal

settlements have been transformed into well built up areas since then.

Most of the residents were unaware about the ownership of land on which informal settlements

existed. Many settlements were located on the lands owned by the Forest Department. In the

absence of required inter-departmental coordination, entitlement to lands by the informal

settlement dwellers has remained unresolved for a long time. It would require enabling laws

and policies.

Many informal settlements were located on the hilly terrain and difficult to access in the

absence of proper road. This has also been one of the reasons why city authorities find it

difficult to provide certain services like piped water supply.

Initially, it was also difficult to access and gather information from the Municipal Corporation

officials and elected councillors. However, with persistent efforts, the officials and councillors

got convinced about the project objectives and started cooperating.

About PRIA Established in 1982, PRIA (Participatory Research in Asia) is a global centre for participatory research and training based in New Delhi, India. Currently, PRIA has field offices in several states of India and partnerships with 3000 NGOs across the global North and South to deliver its programmes on the ground. Over 36 years, PRIA has promoted ‘participation as empowerment’, capacity building of community organisations, and people’s participation in governance. Initiatives are undertaken in the overall perspective of ‘making democracy work for all’ – in the political system; democratic culture in families, communities, and society; and participatory democracy with active citizenship. PRIA’s programmes on the ground focus on promotion of participation of the poor, especially women and youth, to claim rights and basic services. Through building knowledge, raising voice and making democracy work for all, PRIA realises its vision – of a world based on values of equity, justice, freedom, peace and solidarity. About Engaged Citizens, Responsive City (ECRC) Engaged Citizens Responsive City is a four-year long intervention supported by the European Union which focuses on strengthening civil society of the urban poor to participate in planning and monitoring of sanitation services. The project works across three cities in India (Ajmer in Rajasthan, Jhansi in Uttar Pradesh, and Muzaffarpur in Bihar). It primarily engages the urban poor through capacity building activities to enable them to become active citizens, and to use the new skills learnt to participate in planning (at city level) and monitoring (at the ward level) of sanitation services. Partners in this change include urban poor and middle-class residents, with leadership of young women and men; mayors, elected councillors and related government departments; traders and market associations; civil society, academia and media; and women sanitation workers.
