Urbanisation of India is inevitable. Its rapid. Ithas put immense pressure on all of us. Itsbursting at its seams. Cities will groan, theywill shuffle and wriggle and struggle. Theydon’t need to. These are the pangs of growingup. The angst of evolution. They will learn.They need not cry.

INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
It is widely recognized that good governance is essential to sustainable development. When local
go vernment pra ctices go od g overnanc e, its communities a re more connected a nd eng a g ed, be tter services a re
provided , c ommunity co nfidenc e in c ouncil is improved, res ources a re better used a nd better outcome s a chieved.
However this is difficult to emula te in prac tice, a s mos t of the c ouncillors ma y not pos ses s a deq uate ha nds on
wo rking knowledg e of urba n ma na g eme nt. The de ce ntra liza tion of the de cision ma king proc es s to elected w ing o f
the ULB by virtue of the 74th CAA furthers underscores the need for informed decision making and an
understanding of the regula tion a nd g ood urba n go vernanc e practices .
The 74th CAA, inter a lia , a lso ma kes it impera tive to a chieve a ha rmonious interfa ce be tween the
administrative wing and the elected representatives-a precondition for successful implementation of city
de velopme nt projec ts.
Municipal Councillors come from all walks of life and bring along diverse and valuable skills and
experienc es . Des pite this, very few new co uncillors a re fa milia r with the cha lleng es of urba niza tion, s ys tem of loc a l
g overnment, how a co uncil wo rks a nd the full rang e o f their roles a nd res pons ibilities . When they c omme nce their
term in office it is important tha t counc illors q uickly a tta in a clea r understa nding o f the s a me.
A Co uncillors’ Induc tion P rogra mme (CIP) is a nec es sa ry start-up mec ha nism to provide them with es se ntia l
information, orienting them to challenges and their new role as ruling class for a local government. It enables
councillors to familiarize themselves as to how the council works, the meeting procedures, rules of debate, the
leg a l framew ork unde r which a co uncil ope rates a nd the co mplexities of their multiple roles.
An induction program also provides an opportunity to set a positive tone, build positive working
rela tions hips with the executive and a cq ua int them with the pra ctice s of goo d g overnan ce . It la ys the found a tion
for a successful term in office. However, sustaining their credibility would certainly require further educational
interventions.

COUNCILLORS’ COUNTINOUS LEARNING PROGRAMM E (CCLP)
FOCUS GROUPS
EXPOSURE VISITS
WORKING KNOWLEDGE OF ENGLISH
An induc tion prog ramme for the new ly elected co uncilors is a n es se ntia l first step tha t gives them
a b ird’s eye view o f &se nsitizes them to go od urba n go vernanc e prac tice s. How ever, there is a felt need
to go beyond sensitization and to equip them with the requisite knowledge &skill sets for effective
de cision ma king .
The feed ba ck received from the CIPs in the s tate further reiterates the nee d for CCLP.
Accordingly, it is proposed to go beyond the CIPs and develop councillors’ continuous learning
progra ms (CCLP) which wo uld, inter alia , include the follow ing :
The c ounc ilors express ed a de sire to b e trained in spec ific a rea o f interest to them like wa ste
wa ter ma na g eme nt, so lid wa ste ma na g eme nt, P ublic P rivate Pa rtnerships, Tow n Planning, Municipal
Fina nce etc. This w ould a lso help them a dd more va lue to their roles in sub -co mmittees a lread y
constituted. Accordingly it is proposed to form groups of councilors drawn from different cities and
provide focuse d intens ive tra ining on the ch os en s ubjec t.
With a view to widen the horizon &ac q ua int the co uncilors w ith prac tice s a t the g round level, it is
propos ed to ta ke the co uncilors on expo sure visits both within the country as well a s o versea s. C ities
with which twining can be done, as also cities that showcase best practices in urban management
wo uld b e identified &expos ure visits orga nized . Ca re would be taken to ens ure tha t the fina ncial impa ct
of this visits o n the s ta te is m inimal.
It is o bs erved that the counc ilors co me from d iverse ed uca tiona l, soc ia l &cultura l ba ckground s.
A se g ment of the c ounc ilors felt the nee d to b e impa rted with wo rking knowled g e o f English. In their
percep tion, this wo uld fac ilitate a be tter interac tion with s uppliers, b a nkers, multi-la teral a g enc ies etc.
a nd a lso fac ilitate b etter unde rstand ing o f co mplex leg a l & fina ncial doc uments/propos a ls. It is
a cco rdingly proposed to ha ve co mprehensive tra ining prog ra mmes for impa rting a working knowledge
