FIVE YEAR PLAN OF JAIPUR STATE This is an attempt conditioned by our re ources and difficulties to prepare the outline of a five year plan for a better Jaipur Laissez faire is dead long live planned economy Its obective 19 materialistio the increase in the standard of life but its motif and its fulfilment call for the best in human spirit For the dry bones of any plan can spring to life only if vitalised by the will of the Government and the enthusiasm of the people fased into an integral whole The recent constitutional developments in the Sta e will mean little if as a result this integration is not fostered And the standard of hfe to be raised is not of the few but the many All aspects of the economic life must be embraced To increa ed production must be added better distribution Tbe industrial development must at the same time be sustained by an increase in the purchasing power of the agriculturists But a bigher standard of life involves more than sich increuse It means also better health a quickening of intelligence and sensitiveness and above all an ability to pursue corporate economic cultural and self governing activi ties The masses have to be helped to make efforts to get rid of poverty and insecurity dirt and disease atagprtion and their lot This 18 perhaps the highest exercise of creative energy Fulfilment can come only after a long process of trial and error This plan is thus only a framework and no blue print It will always seek amplification in the light both of experience and publio criticism especially of the representatives of the people in the Council and the Assembly, recently constituted 11 Cach denartment is dealt with separately but not becauso of any lacl of recognition that all spheres inust Ipteract closely For cacb bead of this note tbere 14 a corresponding detailed statement with its hoy statement These detailed statements are to be found in the appendices 1-AGRICULTURE EVEN after indastry can draw off, the present surplus engaged in agriculture and the future growth of population and a balance 18 struck between agriculture and industry the former will remain predominant It is thus the keystone of our plan Jarpurians must be trained not only to man the 1 Training of Blai rapidly growing Agricultural Department but also to undertale scientific farming As early as places can be secured five young men will be trained in post graduate and five in graduate courses at State expense Further it is understood that the Birla Educational Trust propose to start an Agricultural College at Pilani Cultivated land and a large dairy farm are already available there for this purpose The State will set up an Agricultural School at Jaipur for training the subordinate staff required 7 Erlen alon of Irrigation The land is fertile but arid No Biogle factor can therefore add so much to its productivity as extension of irrigation To ensure sufficiency in food and reduce the chances of famine the objective should be to extend the irrigated area froin one seventh of the total cultivated area to abont half Large State irrigation reservoirs, canals or State hydro-electro tube wells have been dealt with under Irrigation Other measures to extend irri,ation are indicated below (a) of the existing pakka wells about 22 000 are in use and 12000 are out of use This is largely on 80- count of their striking rocky strata or impervious olay While rock boring seldom succeeds vertical boring 2 with strainers to cope with impervibus clay frequently does The cost per well averages about Rs 300/ Again a substantial number of pucca wells bavo gone out of use because of the subsidence of the sub soil water Frequently the construction of small bundhs near such welis remedıcs this evil In order to induce retoration of pucca wells Government will have to givo generous aid and concessions (*) Boring will be carried out by the Agricul tural Department at concessional rates (11) A grant of 26% of the cost of remedial measures and where necessary taqı also will be given (u) Lohancement of rent from bariai to chahi rates will be postponed during the pendency of Settlement, or 10 years whichovor is longer (10) Techpical advico, and wood for burning limo will also be given An expenditure of R: 376000/ has been proposed, as aid for the restoration of about 6000 pucca wells This should lead after 10 seurs to an increase in roycoue amounting to over two labbs annually Ordinarily a pucca Troll covers 8 bigbas of land difiereaco betseca chahi and barani rato may be estimated at Rs 4181 por igbha (6, 600 new pucca tolls should be constructed in barani land duriog the next five years (2) Here ngria Government will contributo tos of the cost An expendituro of 6 Lalbs at 30 average of Rs 1,000/ grao! per well bas baca provided Tho averagº 3 (22) The construction of a new pucca well should automatically carry with it the concession of no enhancement of rent for a period of 20 years Ultimately this investment of Rs 6 labhs should lead to an enhancement of revenue of Rs 18 000/ annually (c) Construction of 1000 small village tanks Government propose to construct about 200 such tanks entirely at their cost and enbance the rents immediately The other 500 tenants will be encouraged to construct jointly on the terms that Government will contribute 25/ of the cost and not enhance rents during the pendency of the Settlement Three lalhs have been provided for this purpose Thus roughly 5000 bighas will be irrigated The difference in talabı and buranı rents is about Rs 2/ ¿per bigha 1 he investment should lead to an increase in revenuo of Rs 1000 annually (7) Construction of 2 500 hachcha wells The cost of pakl wells has gone up very considerably Further we ou,ht to make sure whether electrius tube wells will succeed or not before encouraging now pakka well on n extensive scale Tor these reasons and also for a rapid extension of veetable and fruit cultivation an immediate multiplication of hachcha wells is desirable Such wells however are possible only in morenda' clay and clay loan soils (1) Government will p y as grant 25% of th cot Two lakhs have been provided for this purpose (12) There will be no increase in rent during the term of the Settlement and then the assessment will be 25/ less than on land irrigated by pabba vells No permanent increase in revenue has been estimated as at 18 likely that most of the bachcha wells will cease to exist before the next Settlement takes place (e) In this manner there should be an extension of irrigated are from minor means in the next five years as follows 1 Restoration of 6 000 pakka wells @ 8 bighas per well 48 000 bigbag 2. 600 new pakka well @ 8 bighas per well 8 000 1 000 emall village tanks 5 bighas por tank 5 000 4 2 500 kham wells 5 baghas 13 600 8 por tell 73 500 As shown in the note and the detailed statement under 'Irrigation' the large irrigation projects aro oxpected to extend the irrigated aroa As follows (1) 500 hydro olectric tubo wells 60 000 b bag (11) 7 Irriga ion res spoir tanks 6 23 760 or rou bly 600 000 bighas TOTAL 550 000 bigbas Grand total of the area in which irrigation 18 to bo extended Mincr mcans 73 500 bigbss Major means 6 to 600 bichas, 623 500 bigbat 5 We may take it that irrigation will be extended roughly over 6 lahh bighas () The present irrigated area is as follows Khalsa 3 40 000 bi hag Non Khalsa 400 000-a very tough estimate 7 40 000 This means that we propose to nearly double the area of the irrigated land in the next five years The total area under cultivation is as follows Khalsa 17 25 000 bi has Non Khalsa 24 75 000 - very rou b estimate 4200 000 Instead of the irrigated arca being as at present about one seventh of the total cultivated area it will become about one fourth This will mean a big leap forward in the productivity of agriculture (1) Of the 6 lakh bighas that the hydro electric and big reservoir irrigation schemes should irrigate about 2 lakh bigbas are at present uncultivated lands Most of this culturable waste is out of holdip s or untenanted Thus extension of agriculture is possible over at least 2 lakh bighas in the near future To the blood toil and sweat that our cultivator Doutors bation ! bas contributed so much the State must now add B i nce Before it can do so far more intensive research in the laboratory and fields is nec ssary The Advisory Board of the Imperial Council of Agricoltural Research state in their Memorandum on the Development of Agriculture 1914 Indispens able with the proper utilisation of land is the need for carrying out scientific experiments on a scale science suficiently large to place the agricultural officer in a position to supply to the cultivator, a schedule of cultivation suitable to his particular land and indivi dual needs Exist og information though consider able in somo direct ons is totally inadequate in others Its collection Decegsetrtes the establishment of at leust ove experimental farm in every division in which they do not erist already' The plan provides for the immediate de clopment of the research sections of (a) Plant br eding (b) A rioultural Chemistry (c) Entomology (2) ascology Fire agricultural farms in tracts with different Boils or o central frart gardou and so ou fruit purseries for trial deroonstration and distribution of improved seeds of crops had rcgetables and fruit plauts are to be started at once all over the State A Botanical Gardca is tarog laid out near Jarpur City & loprovod (a) Pendling a fuller contribution to our know penda Icdgo by the new experiinental farms imported improved seeds, nbich are found to be better than local sceds particularly of cotton (lon, or incdium stapo) bajra juar 03170 til inoong tobacco Ground put sugarcane potato sofa beans aud o her vegetables, will be distributed widely (1) A special anire will be mado inmediately to extend potato cultivation in rural areas where it 18 grown very wuadeguately Ile Agricultural Departa ment will import potato seed and distribute it at a Bubsidised pnco zeera (c) If the powdery mildew disease which at present attacks every second or third year can be overcome by morsures suggested by the Imperial Mycologist an effort will be made to extend the area of this valuable and easily grown rabi cash crop 1 (d) The cultivation of sugarcine is severely limited by the fact that it requires 12 to 18 irrigations in most parts of the State But when the vast Bisalpur Reservoir and canal project costiog 21 crores of rupees is completed it will irrigate 2 50 000 acres of rich dhamat and black soil tracts in the south west of the State This should lead to a consider able increase in the area under sugarcano zeera and cotton crops (e) The activities of the Department will be extended to Shekhawati the northern andy tract in the State This is a single crop area the principal crops being bajra, moth and guar Experiments will te made in order to popularse Jakhrana bajr and intro duce groundnut For nine months cultiv..tors in this tract are free from agricultural worl Special efforts will therefore be made to improve or exteud their subsidiary or cottage industries such as wool spinning and weaving and sheep and camel rearing (1) The Department will induce the farmers to try the improved seeds new implements and manures as against tbeir varieties on their own farms The demonstration farms thus carried to the...

two ways of achieving this The State may either

XII --LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT AND IMPROVEMENT last year The condition of our towns and villages reflect the inertia of centuries Both are characterised by appalling insanitary conditions Met alled roads pavements and drains are rarities in towns In villages they do not exist at all Several villages still do not have pabha wells Others have baories which cause the terrible disease of guineaworin Towns are congested and villages planless Gove a ment has earnestly taken up the general sanitary improvement of towns and villages A general grant of one lakh and special grants were made for this purpose A pipe water supply has been arranged for Dausa Municipality entirely at Government expense All baories in tehsil Toda Rai Singh are being converted into draw wells at government expense A Jaipur City Improvement Committee has recently been reconstituted Town Improvement Committes have been set up in several towns under the chairman sbip of Deputy Commissioners Allotment of lands have been made for this purpose A few yıllages are being replanned and land required 18 being provided free by the State Development to be lasting and v tal must spring 1 Los ! from the consent and the corporate efforts of the people $ 168erg & bod s themselves Local bodies to & progressive State are what cells are to a living organism A system of local self government therefore has to be created et every stage (a) The Jaipur City Municipality bas been reconstituted unber & new Act with vastly increased powers and an elected Chairman 82 (6) Thirty ono new Town Municipalities buvo been created and have just started functioning with the help of subsidies from the State and the bigger tbibanas Both are considering tbe question of trios ferring some of their present sources of incoin to these new municipal bodies (c) A Panchayat Act has been enacted on the lines of the Mysore Panchayat Act Tl16 invests panchayats with far more comprehensive functions and larger powers of taxation than siunlar bodies exer cise in most British Indian Provinces It is expected that at least a thousand panchayats will be established in the next five years each panchayat comprising a town a village or a number of vllages (d) In the near future legislation will be under talen to invest the Jaipur City Improvement Com imittee and some of the more important Town ſipprove ment Committee with statutory powers and wider representation than these bave at a present Experi ence elsewbero shows the necessity of getting the towo planning and improvement worl carried out by a st tato y body other thin the municipality (e) A Central Advisory Board with district branches was coustituted 10 1939 for bringing to the notice of Government the administrative needs of the People Recently the State Rural Development Bourd with branches in the district buve been constitutca and have proved very useful But it is recognized that we require statutory district boards to whon Government con delegate to a substantial extent it functions relating to ration buildiag departments Iu British India tha statutury district boards have been functioning for a considerab o period bat gendarlly have m not achieved conspicuous success One of the reasons for this is that the villages in British India are still without panchayats having such functions and powers as constitute these into effective local administrative units and corporate bodies Our district boards should spring from and be integrated into a vigorous system of panchayats all over the State (a) the improvement of Jaipur City has to be ? Imp worthy of is ancient bevuty its position as the JP Cty metropolis where live about one fifteenth of the total popilation of the State and which in additiun to being the capital is the first ity in almost every srhero of life industrial commorrial and educational It must therefore be tho spear hend i civic advance und the Ay mbol of the Stato pro ross Improvement already carried out had first to be devoted largely to what are known 28 external schemes tho lay out of new residential and industrial the latter numberin, as ruany as sir pipes were not available owing to the war for more underground sewage than a total length of about two miles The efponditure incurred in the past four ears 18 18 follows Rs Acquisition of lands and buildings 1 00 000 Lay out of new residential and industrial areas including ronds drains and lighting 800 000 58 model vorkmen s quarters at about Rs 2000/ each 100 000 Underground som 2c 22 000 Paving of rastas or lane 6 35 000 Other improvements 2 40 000 Tnt i czpe diture 3500 000 areas 84 Income from sale of plots eto already realised 14 00 000 A large number of the lands and buildings acquired have been or are to be utilised for public buildings parks markets and roads Plots yet to be sold are expected to realise about ten lakhs Tho lay out of the new residential and industrial areas will thus bave largely paid for itself (b) The improvement schemes that remain rre largely internal sehemes of clearing congestion nou the more expensivo items of sanitary improvement which have yet to be worked out in detail but mav provisionally be outlined as below - (2) (lenranre cf slims & congestell areass Areas like Gbat Darwazito wanda Nala Ramganj Chaupar to Gangapole Gate Top Khanı Des Puranı Basti are all foul spots unfit for human habitation Five lalhs have besu provided for clearing such areas Compensation will be paid lurgely for bulidings only as almost all the land bol ogs to the State (hucha Upar) Cho dehoused In sy be given first prefereuce in any new re idential plots that may be laid out but ut if thos 21039 will be left open as lung spaces, or playgrounds or utilised for schools child welfare and maternity ceutres clubs gyipnasiums or publio build 10,8 Vost of the dehoused will be given plots which are already being laid out outside the City walls on most sides (1) Su eepers quarters It 19 nece sary for the State to build as soon as possible suitable 85 quarters for sweepers both musicipal employees and customary The specal reasons for this are indicated later 1.be model workmen s quarters which have been built have two living rooms and cost about Rs 200J each Sweepers quarters mostly each with one living room should co tabout Rs 1000/ each Five lakhs have been provided under this head 212) IVorhmens quarters The 68 model workmens quarters already built have been occupied and there 18 considerable demand for their purchase It 18 proposed to sell these and build other quarters with the proceeds and so on I his by itself will not enable us to build as many such quarters as are required and the poorest classes will not be benefitted An effort will be inade to get co operative house building societies comprising the poorest artisan classes to build houses for them Govern went my advance louns to such societies on a very sinall interest ana help with other concessions In these operations preference will be given to those who will be dehoused as a result of slum clear ince If they are owners of the buldings that are to be dismantled they will get compensation With a loan to supplement the amount they could build bettor new houses Tbe new houses would of course be mortgaged till the loans were repaid If these efforts do not sacceed, the State may have to undertake to itself build more workmen & 88 lity also If the essence of morality is kind ness, then you can make people moral only by making them happy In this proper recrea tion helps considerably The State must, therefore positively encourage athletio and cultural recreation Clubs playgrounds vymnasiums swimming tanhs should be made available for all classes including the working classes and children Dramatic and pusical activities should be encouraged by construction of an open air theatre and a 1090 theatre and music ball combined It is hoped that the public, particularly the well to do will donate generously for such purposes State help will usually take the form of grunts of land on a concessional or nominal rent and in particularly deserving cases cash grants also Suitable areas for these purposes are being reserved in the now improvement schemes and will be secured inside the City walls also result of the clearance of congested areas One lakh has been provided for cash grants as a (ix) Minor sanitary improvements including paving of Ganda Nala Sir lakhs have been provided under this head as detailed in the appendix The total requirements indicated above amount to 87 lakhs From this should be deducted ten Jakhs wbich aro expected to be realised from sale of plots alreaby laid out and anotbor tea lakhs for plots to be laid in the future 89 (c) But there remuids another large and necessary it m This is the extension of mater supply Ibe pre ent position is very unsatisfactory Ramrarh water supply scheme 12 million gallons was de ign d for per day Ainanı Sbab Scheme 5 3 17 24 million gallons onsumption duriog the peak months of 144 was per day Lven with this excessive pumping in 1944 water supply worled out roughly to 9 gallons per day per head Usually 20 gallons per head is considered really satisfac ory The excessive pumping required in recent years is of course largely explained by the increase of population that bis trben place since 1941 when the population stood at about 1 75 000 Now it it estimated to be about 225 000 In the next five years with vastly increased industrial activities popu lation 13 likely to increase by another "5000 With underground sewage mo t bnu es will take to flush latrines requiring an increis i supply of water per capiti A lag e tension of wer supply system 18 therefore e ential It w 13 SC Funfor un te that in 1931 when the luluh ter supply scheme was started tho 1 2 inillioa s herpe was preferred to the 3 3 wllion schen o now Noi tho alternatives can be considered Lith to go in for the 33 million Rawguh schme or to tap the Dhuad Nadı at 1 di tance of about 8 miles from Lachman Hoongrı by means of a ba tory of tube wells The former was estimated in 1930 to co t as much as 10 Rs 43 lakhs Thi horrerer provided British steel pipes It is possible that within a year or tso Indian cast iron or hi hp es uro cement pipes may be arul able at a cbeaper rate The Dhund Nadt scheine would be much cheaper beoruse it would require only about 8 miles of pipes as compared with 17 iniles from Ramgarh to Lachman Doongri Also it will save the cost of filtration because sub soil nt r will be utilised It is considered that th 10 is p enty of water in the sub soil but a trial bore, which will be put up shortly alone cun make sure If this scheine materialıses, it may cost roughly Rs 25 lalls The City improvement schemes after setting off the proceeds from the sale of plots and the exten sion of water supply are likely to cost at least 72 lalhs It would not be fair for Government to meet this entire expenditure from its g neral revenues Iho following suggestions for easing the burden on the general revenues bave to be considered (1) At present Government have to inect the bulk of the expenditure of Jaipur Municipality by means of net grant averaging about three lakhs 2 year The Municipal Council levy only very minor taxes, which yield them only about a labh a year This is a unique position which must be altered Obviously it is only for that the municipality must levy new trxes for which there is the impl st scope so that it has an incoine of its own which more than covers its recurring expenditure In this manner the recurring grants of about the e labbs ? year made by Goverament to the municipality can be diverted to the capital cost of the worls indicated above This m15 provide about 12 lakhs for the purpose Even so Quother 60 lakhs 1 will have to be found Th18 also is too beavy for the States general revenues to bear It would be equitable, therefore if the Municipality took a load of at least 2. labhs for the purpose of contribu ing towards the the extension of water supply underground sewage or other schemes which will principally benefit the existing habitations The annual repayment ins al ment in respect of such a loan spread over a pe iod of 20 or 30 years together wtih concessional interest would by no means be beyond the capacity of the Municipality In British India smaller munici palitie tale and repay larger loans for similar purposes Thus the total amount required from the general revenues of the State for improvements in Jaipur City in the next five years has been estimated to be 35 lakhs (1) Nowbere perhaps, is the lot of customary sweepers so unjust as here They have to work in the most insanitary conditions and yet their wage are grossly inadequate Even the new Municipalities Act makes it penal for them to stop work but does not give the municipality powers to compel bouseholders to pay fair wa TA3 The result is that mo t of tho customiry sweepers are beavily indubte.I to bohras To these money lenders go a considerable part of their cash earnings while they live largely on scraps of food which they get from householders and proceeds from the sale of night soil 10 which they are supposed to huve customery richts and shich is dried into cakes roun) about their house3 This state of affairs must be remedied without delay The State must build customary sweeper: quarters for municipal and sweepers These must b3 distributed all over the City so that they may no have to live far from their 92 places of worl The ho must be
