Tackling The Parameters Leading To Discomfort Ad Distress in Rehabilitated Schemes: Inclusive Housing For The Slum Dwellers

The research proposal aims to tackle parameters leading to discomfort in rehabilitated slum housing schemes in Pune, Maharashtra. The objective is to study four case studies to identify parameters affecting comfort of slum dwellers. These include area and location, community interactions, and population density. Case studies include the Pune Nirvana Hill rehabilitation project and slums in Sadanandnagar, Ramtekdi, and Sarasbaug. The scope is to emphasize growth of slums and issues with existing rehabilitation schemes to propose practical techniques for maintaining consistency. The research will focus on spatial and physical design strategies rather than forced accommodation.

Research Proposal

Tackling the parameters leading to discomfort ad distress in

rehabilitated schemes : Inclusive housing for the slum dwellers

Aim – Initiating different ideas to tackle the slums at urban level – redeveloping the already
existing slums into new tenaments with proper provision of open spaces using fast track
techniques and affordable housing methods rather than providing with stacked housing.

Objective – to find different parameters that affect the comfort and well – being of the slum
dwellers in 4 different case studies choosen from PUNE .The research will focus on certain
steps to reframe the slums in a different way need to be undertaken aesthetically and
functionally. The research focuses on providing certain techniques and design strategies that
would help reframing the original slum areas in terms of spatial , physical aspects rather than
forcing the end users to be accommodated in the rehabilitated schemes . The methodology
adapted are interviews and user satisfaction surveys and case studies based on parameters like
– area and location , horizontal spread of the area , community interactions, connection of
slums with surrounding context, area offered per person ,according to gender, families of
different clusters, Income groups, population density Following are the case studies -

Pune nirvana hill slum rehabilitated project, Erandwana, Haveli - The Rehabilitation
Component involves the construction of 41 buildings (21 rehabilitation buildings in Rajeev
Gandhi Park, 18 buildings in the Kelewadi area and 2 transit buildings), each having 11 floors
with 13 flats on each floor. The net carpet area provided for each of these apartments is
equivalent to 25m2 or 269 feet2 as per SRA guidelines

Sadanandnagar ,

Ramtekdi

Sarasbaug

Scope – To develop the city at urban level , the slums and squatter developments need to be
emphasized the scope of the research will look into the reasons behind the growth of slums ,
non – working conditions of rehabilitated schemes and hence findings that would help to

1
propose practically helpful and applicable techniques that would help maintain the
consistency in rehabilitated schemes

Limitation – The areas of focus will be only from Pune for acknowledging housing strategies
for slum dwellers and wont concentrate on costing and basic aspects of services like gas
supply ,waterand electric supply.

Introduction - The squatter developments and the slum sprawl is increasing at a greater
intensity in India the squatter developments are probably filled with industrial workers ,
masons etc. which have different categories like migrants , low income groups . According to
estimates of national building organization (NBO ) , housing shortage in India was 10.56
million in 2001 and 24.71 in 2007 . To solve the problems of housing for urban poor,
construction of mass public housing has been the most preferred approach across the whole
world . India has started different initiatives like starting up of rehabilitation schemes that
eventually happened through forced evacuations of the poor. Most of the scehemes developed
have vertical settlements with no proper provision of services , daylight and ventillation ,
improper security etc and hence fail to attract the targeted user group which lead to questions
on designing strategies of the rehabilitated schemes.
