functional land-use zones for Bhubaneswar were identified. These
functional zones have some specific land uses.
•Koenigsberger viewed the city as an autonomous body, having its
own law and jurisdiction, political jurisdiction, right of self-
determination, and an organised sense of communal relationship
along secular lines.
COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN (1988-2001) • Due to the increasing
population and the changing socio- economic status of the city, the Master Plan of
1968 was re-examined, evaluated and modified and in 1993 an improved
Comprehensive Development Plan prepared by Bhubaneswar Development
Authority came into force. • The C.D.P. for Bhubaneswar proposed to be perspective
plan with a time horizon of 1988 2001 specifying the various land use zones with a
set up zoning regulations for regulating all the development in zones.

up-form from agricultural area, vegetation and vacant land. The city today has its centre at the core areas. The city initially evolved in rectangular shape
on a grid iron pattern outward from the centre. Now it is growing largely towards north, northwest and southwest direction along the main transport
routes. The road structure of the city has not involved to cater the changing pattern in the city and the cater its functions. There were ample agriculture
and vegetation land in outside the urban area.
