PLANNING FOR INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT OF WARANGAL DISTRICT, ANDHRA PRADESH

Abstract

Town planning in India is being done not only at the national and state levels but also at district and local levels .The idea is that such a process would generate development impulses at all micro levels. It would help solve problems weather they can, and would involve people individually and in groups in development processes in each area and locality that is being done at number of micro levels. "District" is thus an atomized part of the national level macro space which viewed as an instrument intervening between grassroots micro spaces and national or international macro spaces. So the • major thrust of district plan, therefore must be to create conditions for generating micro level development initiative. It should attempt to unite the people for common causes, build integrated self-managing micro societies and promote self-reliance. Success of district plan should be seen in degree of local initiatives rather than action from above. Micro spaces or local communities as stated earlier have wider links which wane or weaken as distance increases. "District planning" as a concept decentralized and multilevel planning for taking into account the local needs and problems more realistically and to adopt the district as planning and development units. The district plan preparation should be done with proper assess to people and should regard their views to the development issues in the area. Integration" is the practice or the tool by which the constraints are suppressed by considering each minute thing and summing up them so that working runs smoothly and efficiently.
