Importance of Urbanisation
Migration has contributed only about 22% of growth in
cities population.
People would move in search of better jobs. Agriculture
targeted to grow at 4%, Manufacturing about 10%. Services
too have potential to higher growth.
Transition from agriculture to non-agriculture based
employment is important for inclusive growth.
 Cities are deficient in providing amenities to existing
population. It needs to cater for migrants as well. Has a lot
of catching up to do.

b) Rolling out long term and complex PPP arrangements
c) Rolling out large projects in urban transport, water
supply, sanitation
d) Implementation of poverty alleviation programmes.

Opex over 20 years.
