19.1 Introduction
The elaborate proposals of the Development Plan can possibly materialize only through a well-thought
out institutional mechanism. Naya Raipur, the dream capital of the state, a modern city which will stake
claims i nto a g lobalizing na tional e conomy, w ould pr efer to avail m odern techniques o f p roject
implementation and latest practices in institutional mechanism.

However, unde r the C hhattisgarh N agar Tatha G ram Nivesh A dhiniyam 1973, t he N RDA, t hough
empowered t o p lan a nd e xecute the ne w town i s n ot e mpowered in terms o f g ranting de velopment
permission a nd c ontrol of una uthorized c onstruction. N RDA s hould b e e mpowered t o r aise f unds
through levy of tax, c ess, fees and charges. T herefore, a thorough review of the e xisting statutory
platform vis-a-vis plan implementation and institutional mechanism options is already undertaken by the
NRDA. Naya Raipur has heralded the era of total revamp of urban development scenario in the state.
19.5 Coordination
In large projects such a Naya Raipur coordination and commitment from all the departments of the Govt
playing role in the city and the surrounding development is necessary. It is therefore proposed to have a
Technical Committee, which will have the technical heads of the state departments e.g. Director, Town
Planning, C hief E ngineers/Architect, Chief conservator of forest, C hief o f R ural Development, T ribal
welfare, Women and Child Welfare D epartment, etc. T his w ill act as an independent c onsultative
committee, which will take decisions on the strategy to implement the policies firmed up by the Board.
While taking a decision for Naya Raipur, this committee shall take into consideration the pros and cons
115
of the decision with respect to Naya Raipur, surrounding region and the state. Necessary powers needs
to be given to this committee so that the decision once taken by the committee and approved by NRDA
Board s hall be full a nd f inal. This proc ess w ould save t ime r emarkably and render N RDA i nto an
efficient organization.
The committee shall be assisted by in-house Technical / non-technical experts or HODS of NRDA and
minimum general staff.
NRDA has also taken similar approach. The plan preparation, policy formulation, have been already out
sourced and agencies such as M/s CES, CIDCO, has been entrusted with various jobs. It is expected that
the N RDA w ill ado pt a s imilar ap proach at i ts ow n level for ot her i nfrastructure, for exa mple st orm
water drainage, sewerage treatment and disposal, water supply and distribution, solid waste disposal etc.
Only the supply and distribution of electricity shall be solely with the state level organization. This will
help to keep the own organization structure compact, cost effective and manageable.
It is proposed that the social infrastructure be brought about by NRDA in a facilitator role. I t
may inv ite pr ofiles f rom major c haritable / educational, social w elfare trust /s ocialites or o ther
organizations accompanied by adequate proof of service rendered to the target g roup, management
practices, financial stability etc. They may also include their willingness or otherwise to set up facility
centre at Naya Raipur and approximate size of plot which should be justified in the proposal. The same
may be i nvited f rom Government a gencies / organization operating at various level r elated to social
welfare, health, education etc.
