    document, which sets the agenda for the Council and the City for the next 20 years. We have

    identified our vision Puri as a vibrant sustainable city with unique heritage and rich

    legacy after several rounds of consultation with citizens, elected representatives, officials,

    tourists, and media etc.

    This CDP was prepared after extensive consultation with community and is the Puri

    Municipalitys most important strategic document, outlining key issues and objectives for the

    city as a whole.

    City Development Planensures that its objectives and strategic directions are appropriate to

    achieve the vision of our Citys position to address emerging issues and future challenges.

    We have many positive attributes and enduring assets which provide us with one of the most

    liveable city environments in India. These assets include a vibrant and diverse recreational,

    cultural and arts environment; world-class heritage site and sea beaches and our built

    heritage.

    By 2030 the City is anticipated to grow significantly with the development works under the

    JnNURM programmes. This is an exciting opportunity for the City to build on its proven

    record as a great place for Heritage, Culture and Tourism.

    Puri Municipality is committed to working towards the vision outlined in this document

    during its next few years.

    I dedicated this document to the people of Puri.

    Jai Jagannath

    Introduction

    The worlds urban population has been growing rapidly. According to UN estimates; over 60

    percent of the world's population will live in cities by 2030. Indias urban population is 285.3million in the year 2001 which is 27.8 percentage of the total population. India hast 35

    million plus cities. Among these there are 7 mega cities of which 3 with population above 10

    million and 3 with population above 5 million. By the year 2021, it is expected that India will

    have the greatest concentration of mega cities in the Asian region.

    Urban Governance in India: step towards Decentralization

    Municipal Governance in India exists since 1687 with the formation of Madras Municipal

    Corporation and then Calcutta and Bombay Municipal Corporation in 1726. In early part of

    the nineteenth century, almost all towns in India witnessed some form of municipal

    Governance. In the year 1882 Lord Ripons resolution of local self-government laid the

    foundation of democratic forms of municipal governance in India. In 1919 Government of

    India Act incorporated the need of the resolution and the powers of democratically elected

    government were formulated. In 1935 Government of India Act brought local government

    under the purview of the state or provincial government and specific powers were given.

    In 1992, again a major step towards the decentralization and empowerment of local

    governments in India took place with the enactment of 74th Constitutional Amendment Act.

    The Amendment calls for greater responsibilities and authorities for local governments by

    recognizing it as a third tier government. Some of the important aspects include:

    Planning for economic and social development and role of municipal government in

    implementation of urban poverty alleviation projects

    Increased responsibility for urban planning at the district and metropolitan levels

    Greater authority to mobilize and use resources.

    Urbanisation in Orissa

    In Orissa out of the total population of 36,706,920 as on 1st March, 2001, 31,210,602 live in

    rural area and 5,496,318 in urban area. The net addition of population in rural areas during

    1991-2001 has been to the tune of 3685399 while in urban area it is 1261785. The

    percentage wise decadal growth of population in rural and urban area during the decade is

    13.8 and 29.78 percent respectively.

    The percentage of urban population to the total population of the states stands at 14.97. The

    percentage of urban population to total population in the 1991 Census was 13.33 percent.

    Thus, there has been an increase of 1.64 percentage points in the proportion of urban

    population in the state during 1991 2001.

    Urban Governance in Orissa

    The Housing and Urban Development Department is the apex institution of Government of

    Orissa responsible for urban sector development in Orissa. The department has three

    directorates i.e. Municipal Administration, Public Health Engineering and Town Planning.

    The Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) are functioning under the Orissa Municipal Corporation Act

    2003 and Orissa Municipal Act 1950. Similarly Development Authorities are functioning

    under the Orissa Development Authority Act.

    Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (Jn NURM)

    Considering that state of cities is incompatible with the countrys socio-economic objectives

    and Indias growing role in the world economy, the Government of India launched,

    Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JnNURM). Aimed at creating

    economically productive, efficient, equitable and responsive cities, the Urban Renewal

    Mission focuses on (i) improving and augmenting the economic and social infrastructure of

    cities; (ii) ensuring basic services to the urban poor including security of tenure at affordable

    prices; (iii) initiating wide-ranging urban sector reforms whose primary aim is to eliminate

    legal, institutional and financial constraints that have impeded investment in urban

    infrastructure and services; and (iv) strengthening municipal governments and their

    functioning in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution (seventy-fourth)

    Amendment Act, 1992. It provides for public disclosure of local spending decisions together

    with earmarking of budgetary allocations for basic services to the poor.

    The mission covers two Urban Local Bodies of Orissa namely Bhubaneswar and Puri. As

    formulation of City Development Plan (CDP) is a mandatory requirement for accessing Jn

    NURM funds, the Housing & Urban Development Department (H&UD) of Govt. of Orissa, as

    part of its agenda to address cities development challenges faced by Orissa cities, have

    initiated formulation of Puri CDP. In this context, the H&UD Department and Puri

    Municipality involved City Managers Association Orissa (CMAO) to prepare the CDP for Puri.

    Evolution of Puri Town

    Located on the East Coast of India overlooking Bay of Bengal, Puri is located on a 67 km

    stretch of sandy beach that extends from the Chilika Laketo the south of Puri town. The

    Sun Temple of Konark is located on this beach at a distance of 35km north of Purl.

    The town consists of the Temple of Lord Jagannath in its centre with eight quarters (Sahis)

    radiating from it. The town colonies were called 'Sahis'. The population of the town composed

    mostly priests and people attached to the various activities of the temple. Besides, there are

    large numbers ofmathaswhich chiefly cluster round the temple. As the rituals of the temple

    and Ratha Yatra became more elaborate, more people started living in Puri. Ordinary people

    who have no contribution to rituals have also started living.

    The town was originally built on sandy track which began from north and west towards

    Cuttack and Ganjam road where the Madhupur or Matia stream is lined with the largest

    tanks, Narendra, Mitiani, Markandeya and Siva Ganga. As the tributary of the river Matiani

    draining into the sea dried up, it paved the way for the new direction of development of the

    town in the southeast.

    Puri Today

    Puri today is the forerunner of the Jagannath culture in Orissa, which saw the flowering of

    several temples dedicated to Jagannath all over the world. It attracts millions of devotees

    through out the year on different occasion.

    Puri represents one of the four peethasestablished by Adi Sankaracharya, the other three

    being Sringeri in south India, Dwarka in Saurashtra, and Badrinath in the Himalayas.

    Chaitanya in 15th - 16th century popularized the worship of lord Jagannath.

    The temple dominates the town in every sphere physical, social, cultural and

    economic. The town of Puri has evolved around it so that an intricate web of relationship

    exists between the temple and the town dwellers. There are many ancient settlements around

    the temple precinct that are engaged in the temple activities and are responsible for providing

    different materials for management of temple. Elaborate worship services are carried out

    throughout the day here.

    Puri as a town is more than thousand years old and being a religious town, the town is

    based on Vaastu Purusha Mandalaand many meta-physical aspects have been interwoven

    in planning of the town. There are as many as24 festivals

    each year, the most importantbeing the Rath Yatra or the Car festival in the month June - July.

    Puri, known all around the world for its Rath Yatra the cumulating point of all the festivals,

    is celebrated in all pomp and grandeur. The annual Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannath is an

    event only of its kind, which attracts more than 1 million people. The grand festival is

    arranged with combined effort of Orissa Government and Temple Management committee.

    Today tourism provides livelihood for almost 80% people of the town. The total economy

    of town is depended on the inflow of tourist population. Rath Yatra being the most important

  • 7/31/2019 CDP_Puri_Unlocked

    17/260

    Puri Municipality Puri City Development Plan

    City Managers Association Orissa - 3-

    festival is also the one, which has a strong environmental, social, cultural, economic and

    spatial impact on the town. The preparation for Rath Yatra starts months before the actual

    festival.

    The City Development Plan can never be complete without taking into consideration all the

    ritualistic aspects of the Grand Festival and without giving a complete profile of all activities

    and arrangement that are parts of Rath Yatra

    The Architecture of the abode of Lord Jagannath

    The temple of Jagannath built on an elevated ground about twenty feet above the level of the

    surrounding area, presents an imposing sight and can be seen from miles away. The height

    of the main temple or Vimana above the road level is 214. It is a fine specimen of

    Pancharatha style of Orissian temple architecture.

    The whole temple complex comprises of an area of 10.7 acres. The temple has four gates at

    the eastern, southern, western and northern mid-points of the outer wall, known as

    SINGHADWARA(Lions Gate), ASHWA DWARA( Horse Gate),VYAGHRA DWARA(Tigers Gate)

    and HATHI GATE(Elephants Gate) .they are said to represent Dharma, Jnana, Vairagya and

    Aishwarya. In front of the Singhadwara is installed the ARUNA STAMBHA made of single

    solid chlorite stone and upon it beautiful Arun Squats in obeisance.

    The Daily Rituals in the Temple

    The word 'Jagannath' literary means the Lord of the universe. He is also 'Devadhideva' (Lord

    of Lords) and Rajadhiraj (King of Kings) He is Purusottama the Supreme Purusa. The daily

    and periodical rituals observed and performed in His service and worship since time

    immemorial; bear the dignity and grandeur, which a supreme person is entitled to. The

    details of rituals have been specified in certain texts in Sanskrit and Oriya. Neeti or ritual

    signifies a particular type of religious rite.

    Temple as a main Source of City Income

    The whole region around Puri is influenced by the temple in various aspects as if the temple

    is the most important employer of the town. It is the main market for agricultural products of

    the whole region. For the preparation of mahaprasada the temple requires an immense

    quantity of agricultural products like rice, ghee, vegetables etc. Several settlements produce

    goods mainly for the temple and its pilgrims (pots, paintings etc).

    Rath Yatra The Grand Car Festival and City life

    The precise time when the Grand festival of Rath Yatra started as part of Jagannath Culture

    is not known. It is believed that during the reign of Ananga Bhima dev, when the temple was

    renovated and the town was restructured, the concept of Rath Yatra was propagated. The

    entire Rath Yatra is a symbolic humanisation of God. All rituals associated with the festival

    demonstrate an attempt to bring the God down from His pedestal of glory to a more human

    level. This annual festival has now acquired a grand scale and has become the identity

    of the Town of Puri.

    The Festival is celebrated in the June-July on the second day of the bright fortnight of the

    month of Ashadha. People from all across Orissa and from various parts of India come to take

  • 7/31/2019 CDP_Puri_Unlocked

    18/260

    Puri Municipality Puri City Development Plan

    City Managers Association Orissa - 4-

    part in this auspicious occasion. Orissa witnesses the inflow of about 7 to 10 lakhs of

    pilgrims during this Car Festival.

    Significance of Rath Yatra in City Development Plan

    The grand festival of Rath Yatra is important not only for the people of Orissa but also a

    world famous event. It is a very important festival from the point of any development

    programme as almost all levels of Govt. are involved in this event. Attracting more than one

    million pilgrims & tourist on the festival and on an average of 5-6 Lakhs people during 10

    days of Rath Yatra puts a tremendous pressure on the resources of the town.

    City Management and Governance

    The responsibility of providing citizens of Puri with basic urban services like water supply,

    sewerage, waste management, street lighting, roads etc. are vested with various institutions

    such as Puri Municipality, Puri Konark Development Authority, Public Health Engineering

    Organisastion, Orissa Water Supply Sewerage Board etc.

    The Puri Municipality was established in 1864 as Puri Improvement Trust. Further in the

    year 1881 Puri Improvement Trust transformed into Puri Municipality. Post independenceperiod after the enactment of Orissa Municipal Act- 1950 the City administration is vested

    with Puri Municipality and it is represented by Chairperson and councilors elected by the

    people. The election is being conducted by the State Election Commission. Puri Municipality

    has an elected council comprising elected representatives (Councilors) of 30 wards within the

    Municipal area. The council is headed by Chairperson who is elected by the councilors. The

    council meeting of Municipality takes place every month to decide on issues and Governance.

    Duties entrusted to the Puri Municipality were to maintain cleanliness, arrangement for

    street light and maintenance of roads etc

    Infrastructure services

    Development of Infrastructure is an indispensable part of any settlement. Traditional

    settlement infrastructure consisted of water sources and storage, waste disposal, road

    network, security etc., decentralized to a large extent creating self-sufficient communities.

    Modern day urban areas are, on the other hand, heavily dependent on various networks of

    infrastructure, a failure or lack of which severely deteriorates the quality of life of the people.

    The high densities of the urban area require extensive, adequate infrastructure networks for

    the smooth functioning of the city. A lack of adequate road network, wastewater treatment or

    solid waste disposal system affects the natural environment through contamination of air,

    water and land the basic building blocks of life.

    The Sahi structure

    The 'Sahis' of Puri; are characterized by a distinctive settlement pattern & cohesive

    communities, open spaces, water harvesting & storage elements, a concentration of

    heritage buildings & complexes, streetscapes & street network with 'chhakas' or chowk

    intersections & two types of mainly residential narrow streets & mixed use Sahis with

    wider streets. These 'Sahls' are Harachandi Sahi & Basel! Sahi on the west; Goudabada

    Sahi on the south-west; Bali Sahi and Manikarnika Sahi on the south; Matimandapa

    Sahi with Kalaikadevi Sahi on the south-east; Dolamandapa Sahi on the east;

    Markandeswar Sahi & Chudang Sahi on the north.

    Mathas and Ashramas

    Centering round the great temple of Lord Jagannath, many a Matha (Monasteries) grew up

    gradually in course of time in this holy town. In the past, many Saints and Sadhus had come

    to Puri to have darshan of Lord Jagannath. They came in contact with and influenced the

    Gajapati Kings through their philosophical doctrines. The saints and sadhus establishedtheir monasteries on the lands donated to them by the kings and wealthy persons. The Maths

    continued preaching their respective doctrines and also performed certain ritual services in

    the Jagannath Temple. With endowed properties and lands, the heads of the Maths were able

    to maintain their institutions. Lands were donated to the Maths for `Amritmanohi'- the

    proceeds thereof were spent in offering `Bhoga' to Lord Jagannath and the `Mahaprasad' thus

    obtained, were distributed among the pilgrims, pupils, ascetics, and beggars.

    The Four Ashrams

    Connected with certain rituals of the temple of Jagannath, there are four Ashrams

    (hermitages) in Puri town. These are Angira Ashram, Pandu Ashram, Markandeya Ashram

    and Parasara (Ugrasena) Ashram.

    Fairs and Festivals

    It is popularly said Puri City celebrates thirteen important festivals in twelve months.

    However, in reality the city has various festivals all across the year. Importantly all these

    festivals are not only linked with the culture and heritage of Orissa but also of India. These

    activities are directly and indirectly linked with the cities employment and economic

    development potential. It is estimated that around 80% of cities income is linked with

    heritage related activities.
