Himachal
Pradesh is predominantly a hilly region and with the development of
network of various infrastructures, the Urban areas in the State are now fast
growing. Himachal Pradesh comprises the former Hill States and area ceded
from Punjab and as per 2001 census, the population of Himachal Pradesh is 60.77
lacs out of which 90.22% are living in villages and remaining 9.78% are
living in Urban areas.During
the last decade(1991-2000) the urban population has increased by 17.54%
and this upward trend is likely to continue in future which will result
into more & more areas coming under the definition of towns. This has thrown
new challenges in the administration of Local Self Government.
In order to meet out these challenges of urbanization, the Directorate of Urban
Development is a step forward towards efficient urban administration in a phased
and coordinated manner.

The executive committee
felt that the objectives of the Planning Commission for the preparation of city
Development plans and their integration with the state plans will not be fulfilled
unless a small cell in created in each state taking up these problems and for
guiding the local bodies in the preparation of their schemes and plans. It was
resolved that while the state Government should meet the full cost of setting-up
of the Directorate of Urban Local Bodies the expenditure connected with the setting-up
of a city development Plan cell in these Directorates should be met from a 100%
grant from the centre. Such a grant will be conditional on the setting-up of a
Directorate of Urban Local Bodies | |
