Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
74th Amendment introduced Metropolitan Planning Committees (MPCs) in large urban agglomerations to coordinate regional planning among multiple municipal bodies. They consolidate land use, infrastructure, and environmental strategies. Fringe areas—on the city outskirts—face haphazard development due to unclear jurisdiction between rural panchayats and urban municipalities. MPCs mitigate such fragmentation, aligning urban-rural governance for transport, sanitation, and resource management. Challenges include limited autonomy, funding constraints, and bureaucratic overlap. However, effective MPCs can implement integrated solutions for contiguous urban expansions, reflecting the Constitution’s emphasis on synergy between panchayati raj and municipal frameworks in sustaining India’s rapid urban growth.
