CHAPTER 1
COMMUNITY DRIVEN ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE VILLAGE
PROGRAMME (CESVP)
1.1 Introduction
ommunity-driven Environmentally Sustainable Villages Programme (CESVP)
programme envisages mobilizing communities on environmental issues,
creating decentralized models of development empowering local
communities, and building the right atmosphere in villages to adopt environmentally
sustainable practices on community level. Successive initiation and implementation
of several activities under CESVP program during October to March, 2018, all Delhi
based resource partners have pursued their efforts to collectively identified villages
to develop model villages for the amelioration of people residing in the region with
respect to environment.
The idea behind CESVP program is broadly focusing upon the development in the
villages which includes social, economic, cultural development to spread awareness
among the people on social mobilization of the village community of Singhola, Ghoga
and Dhirpur villages. The ENVIS RPs (Resource Partners) carried out
environmentally sustainable activities for spreading messages concerning
environment and generating awareness among villagers.
At present, villagers' awareness of environmental issues is regarded as one of the
most important in the social-economic context, particularly the environmental
problems, which are aimed to encourage sustainable development in the villages.
During the past five months, all Delhi-based ENVIS RPs partnered with village
representatives who have provided environmental awareness, training and
educating about heath & sanitation, air and water pollution, important of solar
energy to Dhirpur, Ghoga and Singhola villagers.

The ENVIS RPs undertaken various activities hygiene and health status,
environmental awareness issues such as clean energy, municipal solid waste (MSW),
compost- feeding of soil and pollution. 3D Model of three villages, soil infiltration
capability map, rooftop capacity mapping, groundwater analysis were also done by
ENVIS RPs. Sensitized about conservation and the importance of rain water
harvesting by displaying and donating working model of rain water harvesting.
Training cum Awareness activities were organised in all three villages which
includes film screening, live demonstrations, presentations and distributing
awareness materials.
The Delhi based RPs have conducted several field surveys covering land use,
vegetation, soil, groundwater and household. To make successful the CESVP
program all the Delhi based ENVIS RPs are thankful to the villagers of the villages
for their endless support. Thus, all Delhi-based ENVIS RPs seeks to identify and
explain the factors affecting the environmental to the villagers living in Dhirpur,
Ghoga and Singhola. Accordingly, environmental awareness activities were
performed with the aim of protecting and enhancing the environment in the context
of environmental sustainability.

1.2 Overview of Villages
The villages of Ghoga, Singhola and Dhirpur located in North West and North Delhi
District.
Figure 1: Location of the villages on Delhi Map
Under Community-driven Environmentally Sustainable Village Programme (CESVP)
the three villages namely Singhola, Ghoga, and Dhirpur were surveyed to get a brief
understanding of the villages. Physical Infrastructural facilities are almost same in
three villages except that Dhirpur village has 100% sewerage coverage where as
Singhola and Ghoga do not have sewerage connection to their houses. Drinking
Water is supplied by Delhi Jal Board but few families still use Ground water. All
three villages have Toilet facilities in their own houses but few houses of Singhola is
not have toilets. In land use wise, Singhola and Ghoga have low density with
agricultural land and dense vegetation while Dhirpur has high density with sparse
vegetation.

2.2. MAPPING OF NATURAL AND MANMADE RESOURCES OF THE VILLAGES
2.2.1 Land Use Land Cover Classification & Mapping (for the year 2006 & 2017)
Land use land cover mapping is a major key factor for sustainable and environment
friendly planning of any urban fringe villages like Singhola, Ghoga and Dhirpur. It
can give a real picture of the land use pattern of the villages and how it is changing
over the time. The process of urbanization can be documented using a Land use
land cover map of the area.
Instead of using village boundary, the area surveyed by WWF ENVIS RP team is
classified and identified as area of interest. The whole classification is done for only
the demarcated surveyed area for all three villages.
LULC Mapping is done using LULC classification in Geospatial domain using
Satellite Image and Toposheets. To identify the decadal change and population
growth in this area the built up footprint are classified using Supervised
Community-driven Environmentally Sustainable Village Programme
12
Classification technique. Then the classified images are corrected using GPS
surveyed points and real ground knowledge to achieve the best possible result.
For the year 2017, Indian Remote Sensing satellite data with 5.8 meter spatial
resolution is used. To identify the decadal changes, Survey of India Toposheets with
1:50,000 scale are used for this analysis. The survey year was 2005-2006. The
satellite image and toposheets are used in this study are as follows.

A. Land Use Land Cover Maps
The Land Use Land Cover Classes which are identified in this area are:
Reserve Forest: All forest lands with tree cover specially Babul of canopy density
between 10% and 40%.
Natural Vegetation: All lands with poor tree growth mainly of small or stunted trees
having canopy density less than 10 percent.
Plantation: These are the areas which are planted adopting certain management
and planning techniques.
Water bodies: This category comprises areas with surface water impounded in the
form of ponds, lakes and reservoirs etc.
Canals & Drains: This category comprises areas with surface water impounded in
the form flowing as streams, rivers, canals, drains etc.
Agriculture Land: These are the areas where lands are fully or partially covered
with various types of crops at one particular season. It is associated with all types
of farming.
Settlement (Built-Up Land): It is an area of human habitation developed due to
non-agricultural use and that has cover of buildings, transport and communication,
utilities in association with water, vegetation and vacant lands. This is further
classified into various classes as Residential – Core and Peri Urban, Religious,
Commercial and Recreational Area.
Open Land: Open land is described as a part of land which can be degraded with
no or less vegetation cover with reasonable effort and which is currently
underutilized. It is further classified in Agricultural Fallow, Depression Area and
Area under Construction.
Marshy Grassland: Grasslands are the areas of grass (natural or man-made) along
with other vegetation, predominated by the former or grass like plants (monocots)
and non-grass herbs in a Marshland.

The graph above shows the change in the extent of the different parameters in
hectares over the years from 2006 to 2017. As it is clear from the chart above there
has been minor increase in the area of the reserved forest cover on comparing the
extent of years 2006 and 2017. The extent of natural vegetation has decreased and
the total plantation cover has cover has increased in the gap of around 10 years.
There has been a decrease in the extent of agricultural land and open/barren land
but an increase in the extent of Urban Area. There are various parameters that could
have led to change in the extent of these classes over the extent of 10 years. Major
of them are population explosion, Deforestation and Urbanisation without proper
land management.
2.3 Natural Resources status: Water and Soil
2.3.1 Mapping for the Rooftop Rainwater Harvesting
Rainwater harvesting from rooftop catchment is eco-friendly and can be very useful
for the household water storage, groundwater recharge and supply. By
implementing rooftop harvesting one can save lots of water and can access the yield
water for daily use in the severe water shortages area. Rooftop capacity mapping for
the three villages is done using the references of google earth, and google street map
was used as base map for GIS inputs. Detail of the rooftop measurements with the
total number of roofs in each village digitized in GIS software along with the
attributes like; area (in both m2 and km2), perimeter (in both m and km) and others
are attached in the Annexure -I.

2.3.2 Mapping for the Soil Infilteration Capacity of Dhirpur Village:
Soil samples collected from the Dhirpur village have been analyzed through geo-
technical methods for the soil textural and grain size analysis. On the basis of
percentage fraction of sand in each sample is helpful to understand the feasibility
of soil infiltration capability for rainfall - runoff to recharge underground
aquifer/groundwater. Outcome values of soil grain sizes were further assessed
through the statistical software GRADISTAT (v 4.0) and relative infilteration capacity
map generated in GIS software for percolation of ground water recharge. (Map
attached below). Soil texture allows greater understanding of the processes
controlling erosion, water movement and storage, pollutant runoff and site
productivity, among others.

Water Health Management:
Groundwater samples were collected from hand pumps, submersible at residential,
agriculture fields and wetlands in all three villages of Dhirpur, Ghoga and Singhola
for the assessment of groundwater quality in the villages and its suitability for
human consumption and agricultural activities is studied based on water quality
requirement standards in each village.
The results obtained were evaluated by CPCB Lab in accordance with the standards
prescribed by Bureau of Indian Standards under Indian standard drinking water
specification IS: 10500:2012. Report of Ground Water Quality test of three villages
Dhirpur, Singhola and Ghoga may be seen at Annexure-II.
Conclusion of Ground Water Quality
In each village five groundwater samples were collected for analysis of various
Physico-chemical parameters like pH, Total Dissolved Solids, Alkalinity, Total
Hardness, Chloride, Calcium, Magnesium, Nitrate, Sulphate. Laboratory analytical
results indicate higher concentration of Alkalinity, Magnesium, Hardness, Calcium,
TDS and Fluoride in all three villages, which indicates Ground Water is not suitable
for drinking purpose. In view of study conducted, it is suggested to provide treated
potable water to their villagers to minimize the diseases caused by the higher
concentration of Physico-chemical parameters present in the ground water.
B. Awareness of environmental and social issues:
A training-cum-awareness programme was organised by all the ENVIS resource
partners. The event was attended by past and present councillor of the village as
well as the villagers in huge numbers. Every resource partner presented their work
done in the village during the past few months and spread awareness among the
villagers. A presentation was given by WWF ENVIS Resource Partner giving the
details and showing the conclusions of the Environment and socioeconomic
household survey conducted in the village in the past months. People were informed
about the education, economic and general status of the village. They were also told
about the existing problems in the village and what all is needed to be done to
address them on a timely basis. The present councillor of the all three villages vowed
to work in close collaboration with the Municipal Corporation Department and other
agencies to bring about the necessary change in order to address the discovered
problems. The villagers also showed interest in bringing some lifestyle changes for
their own healthy living and betterment of their village.

CHAPTER 5
PROBLEMS
5.1 Major Problems observed in the villages
5.1.1 Dhirpur:
• Public toilets: Two public toilets are occupied by the people and used for
commercial purpose
• Public tap: Public drinking water facility is not available in the village
• Community hall: Lack of community hall in the area though it is highly
dense
• Clinics: There is no dispensary or clinic in the area
• Schools: Only one MCD primary school is present, no other primary nor any
higher secondary schools are present. Although Rosary Public School is
present but it is not affordable for the villagers.
• Street dogs: Stray dogs create menace especially dog bites and skin diseases.
• Open space and park: Only one park is located in the area, which is not
maintained at all.
• Health: The water body is filled in rainy seasons and overflows into the area
which increases mosquitoes and causes health problems
• Solid waste: Solid waste is dumped in the open area near main road and
along nala side which causes bad smell and health problems
• Fire preparedness : Due to narrow width of the lanes, the fire tender is not
able to reach most of the areas of the village. The closest fire station is at
Mukherjee Nagar which is 2km away.
•
5.1.2 Singhola and Ghoga
• The water body- Talab or Johar/pond has inflow of sewage and waste and
needs to be cleaned
• Two parks of MCD are not well maintained
• Crop burning is a major issue which is causing air pollution
• Waste burning is causing air pollution on a large scale in the area
• The village does not have a Primary Health Centre
• Improper garbage dumping, unavailability of dustbins
• Water logging
• Toilet directly connected to open sewage
• Unavailability of street lights
Community-driven Environmentally Sustainable Village Programme
62
5.2 Proposal :
5.2.1 Risk management by Fire Protection Measures:
Due to high growth and urbanization, the core area inside urban villages gets more
congested. High density and encroachment causes inaccessible for emergency
services, thus Fire protection (Fire Main) measures is needed in such core areas of
the villages/urban villages.
5.2.2 Water Augmentation by Rain Water Harvesting:
Due to Urbanization, the soil surface exposed to natural recharge gets reduced.
Therefore natural recharge is diminishing, resulting into ground water depletion and
drying of wells. Rainwater Harvesting is process of augmenting the natural
infiltration of rainwater or surface runoff into the ground by some artificial method
and this should be propagated in the village.
5.2.3 Drainage:
Most of the village ponds are creating problems due to silting of sullage water. Earlier
these ponds used to absorb rainwater and only few storm water drains which were
in existence were adequate to drain the water of the villages. Due to gradual silting
of ponds, there is a problems of drainage. So each village requires proper drainage
system and maintenance of the village ponds.
5.2.4 Solid waste Management:
Solid waste management is one of the major environmental problems of all the
villages .Improper management of solid waste causes hazards to inhabitant- about
90% of MSW is disposed of unscientifically in open dumps and community garbage
bins, creating problems to public health and the environment. Therefore, there is a
need of proper waste disposal system and Composting unit in every village which
can make these villages clean and green.
5.2.5 Park and Open space:
There is a lack of proper park and open space of these villages. So each village
requires to develop park and open space for recreation. The design for park and
open space are presented below:
Community-driven Environmentally Sustainable Village Programme
63
5.3 Problems Faced by ENVIS RPs Team
Main problem faced by ENVIS RPs in Dhirpur village which are as follows:
People were reluctant to attend the programme when called and when asked
they said that when the counsellor will come, we will join the programme as
of now we are busy in house chores" and that is why delayed by one and a
half hour.
After the presentation by centres the councillor appreciated the
program/activities but was unhappy with less participation of village
households.
He recommended that the programme should be organized with a proper plan
and everyone should be intimated quite before time.
The people with the councillor misbehaved with Delhi based ENVIS team
members that is why the programme abruptly.
5.4 New Initiatives Taken:
The summing of the CESVP programme was carried out by RPs in all the
three villages.

ANNEXURE - II
(Ground Water Quality Report)
Groundwater sample collection and analysis of villages
Dhirpur, Gogha and Singhola
Water is important for all living organisms for their survival and metabolic process.
Over exploitation of groundwater resources leads degradation of its quality. Due to
non-availability potable water, in many instances groundwater is used directly for
drinking purposes, hence, the analysis of groundwater quality (GWQ) is very
important for assessment of its chemical constituents for suitability for human
consumption.
The groundwater quality has been studied by collecting water samples from the
geographic location of three villages viz., Dhirpur, Ghoga and Singhola in the North-
west District of Delhi in the month of December, 2017 and January, 2018. A total
of fifteen samples, five from each village have been collected, of which 10 samples
from bore wells located in residential areas, 2 samples bore wells located near
agriculture area 1 from tube well located in commercial area and 1 sample from
hand pump in residential area respectively and analyzed at CPCB Lab. The analysis
results of collected samples were evaluated in accordance with the standards
prescribed by Bureau of Indian Standards under Indian standard drinking water
specification IS: 10500:2012. The analysis report of groundwater samples of three
villages tabulated in Table 1, 2 and 3. The assessment of groundwater quality of the
villages and its suitability for human consumption has been studied for the following
physico-chemical parameters:

S.
No. Parameter General features and health effect
1 pH Affects mucous membrane; bitter taste; corrosion;
affects aquatic life
2 Total dissolved
solids (TDS)
Undesirable taste; gastro intestinal irritations;
corrosion
or incrustation
3 Hardness as
CaCO3
Poor lathering with soap; deterioration of the quality of
clothes; skin irritation;
4 Calcium Poor lathering and deterioration of the quality of
clothes; incrustation in pipes; scale formation
5 Magnesium
Poor lathering and deterioration of clothes; with
sulphate
laxative
6 Alkalinity
Water with high alkalinity become “hard.” The most
prevalent mineral compound causing alkalinity is
calcium carbonate, which can come from rocks such as
limestone or can be leached from dolomite and calcite
in the soil. Large amount of alkalinity imparts a bitter
taste to water.
The most prevalent mineral compound causing
alkalinity is calcium carbonate (CaCO3).
7 Chloride Salty taste, corrosive at concentration above 250
mg/l, water acquires salty taste.
8 Nitrate-Nitrogen Blue baby disease (methemoglobineamia); algal growth
Sulphate
9 Fluoride
Fluoride is beneficial for human beings as a trace
element. This protects tooth decay and help in bone
development, but excessive exposure to fluoride in
drinking-water can affect health
10 Suphate
High concentration of Sodium sulphate may lead
dehydration as a common side-effect following the
ingestion of large amounts of Sodium sulphate

CONCLUSION
In each village five groundwater samples were collected for analysis of various
Physico-chemical parameters like pH, Total Dissolved Solids, Alkalinity, Total
Hardness, Chloride, Calcium, Magnesium, Nitrate, Sulphate. Laboratory analytical
results indicate higher concentration of Alkalinity, Magnesium, Hardness, Calcium,
TDS and Fluoride in all three villages, which indicates Ground Water is not suitable
for drinking purpose. In view of study conducted, it is suggested to provide treated
potable water to their villagers to minimize the diseases caused by the higher
concentration of Physico-chemical parameters present in the ground water.
