1.0 BACKGROUND
Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JnNURM), is a partnership project launched
by Ministry of Urban Development (MoUD), Government of India for planned development of the
cities and towns with focus on efficiency in urban infrastructure and service delivery mechanisms
in ‘mission cities’. To achieve full objectives of JnNURM, knowledge sharing of urban reforms
amongst JnNURM cities has emerged as a potential area for capacity building. It is felt that cities
identified under JnNURM, can network amongst themselves for cross learning and sharing of
experiences, hence effectively managing their cities. "Peer Experience and Reflective Learning"
(PEARL) is an initiative under JnNURM to support cities to actively pursue activities in
implementation of projects and reforms.
It is envisaged to form groups/networks amongst JnNURM cities having similar socio‐economic
profile, complexities of urban problems and issues, size and urban growth patterns, along with
natural affinity to peer pair. Suggested 'peer‐pairing' for cities in JnNURM is on the basis of: socio‐
economic profile and key economic drivers, Size of the city, urban growth pattern and urban
character/complexities. Therefore, cities with similar urban issues and character are brought
together.
The cities have been divided into five groups, namely:
(a) Mega Cities;
(b) Industrial Cities;
(c) Mixed economy;
(d) Cultural, Heritage & Religious Cities; and
(e) Cities of Environmental Importance.
1.1 THE PEARL INITIATIVE To achieve objectives of the mission, knowledge sharing amongst JnNURM cities in various
sectors of urban reforms and city governance has emerged as a potential area for capacity
building. It is felt that cities identified under JnNURM, for financing urban infrastructure and
other aspects of urban Development, can network amongst themselves for cross learning and
sharing knowledge, hence effectively manage their cities.
The Peer Experience and Reflective Learning (PEARL) Initiative is an initiative to support cities
actively networking amongst themselves for cross learning as well as to
create manageable networks between JnNURM cities for cross learning and sharing knowledge
on urban reforms and city governance so that objectives of the mission can be successfully
achieved to make cities more livable, economically vibrant, and environmentally sustainable.
PEARL Report 2010 CEPT University, Ahmedabad 2
The programme was initially launched in 2007 at Hyderabad where the potential Knowledge
Managers (KMs) along with their conveners were identified, as under

1.2 BASIS FOR PEER PAIRING
To achieve this objective it is envisaged to form groups/networks amongst JnNURM cities
having similar socio‐economic profile, complexities of urban problems and issues, size and
urban growth patterns, along with natural affinity to peer pair. Suggested ‘peer‐pairing’ for
cities in JnNURM is on the basis of:
– Socio‐economic profile and key economic drivers
– Size of the city
– Urban growth pattern
– Urban character / complexities
Therefore, cities with similar urban issues and character are brought together.

PEARL Report 2010 CEPT University, Ahmedabad 15
The second presentation of the technical session 1 was by Dr. Shrawan Kumar Acharya, Professor
at CEPT University. Prof. Acharya talked about Heritage conservation as inclusive urban
development strategy in emerging economies. His presentation was critical yet a reflective note
on the issue of inclusiveness. To put forward this important and complex issue of poverty and
marginal groups, he based his presentation on a case of China and Vietnam.
• He started his presentation with stating problems of exclusionary planning process which
ignores the community, culture, livelihood, institutions, local knowledge and traditions
and most importantly people’s spaces. Under the title of Global aspirations and
exclusionary practice he illustrated the case of Beijing and how due to globalization and
to become a world class city, cultural, traditions and heritage of the city has been
ignored.
• Through images and his personal experience he explained how the heritage of the city is
ignored and is in danger right now. He then talked about traditional “Siheyuan”‐
courtyard houses and “Hutong” – inner lanes examples to further explain the issue. Going
in to detail he explained the streetscapes, life style, traditional places, people’s activities
and the social structure of the city.
• He further mentioned about the revitalization process taking place is some of the cities
and how it merely ends up being a tourist attraction and becomes an example of total
commercialization and how because of that the city looses the real purpose of heritage
conservation.
• He ended his presentation with strong remarks on spatial fragmentation by comparisons
of 2 cities in China and Brazil and how core areas have drastically changed and people
outside of the core still suffers from same problems and issues.
• At last he highlighted the need of locally rooted heritage planning education and practice.
After thanking Dr. Acharya, Prof. Koshy invited Shri. Balkrishna Doshi by extending his warm
welcome. Prof. Doshi talked about the Bhadra Forth revitalization project starting by explaining
the significance of the project in the context of Ahmedabad and the uniqueness of the same.

history of the city of Ahmedabad and some
of the special occasions and achievement of
the thriving city.
Prof. B.V Doshi talks about Heritage Management
PEARL Report 2010 CEPT University, Ahmedabad 16
• He explained the “Bhadra” revitalization
project by informing how this area is non‐
isolated connecting part of the city. He
explained the orientation, squares,
connection to the river and views from
the “Bhadra” fort along with the life style
of the area
• He highlighted main components of the
plan such as large public spaces, which
used to exist in earlier plans and would also, incorporate many city offices within the fort
complex to make the area more important and visible to city residents.
• He mentioned some of the unique characteristics of the area by highlighting proximity to
‘rani no hajiro’, Mosques, Manek Chauk and Hindu – Muslim mixed culture and drew
attention to more than 100 architecturally rich ‘Havelies’ and other structures situated
around the ‘Bhadra’ Fort.
• He talked about the opportunity to link all the rich structures and make few more
heritage / cultural walks in the same area and talked about conservation as a recycling
process. To further explain the concept he strongly suggested that the city must become
living and not a place of dead heritage buildings.
• He suggested that large complexes like the fort must incorporate modern IT offices,
public institutions and other modern uses to make it more and more usable by people of
today.
• He ended his presentation by suggesting the need of making heritage buildings more and
more accessible and open for the city to enjoy.
Prof. Doshi then gave a brief introduction of Gandhi Ashram and how important and significant
it is in the context of Ahmedabad and its History and invited Prof. Utpal Sharma, Dean of faculty
of planning and public policy to give a detailed presentation on Gandhi Ashram revitalization
project.
• Prof. Utpal started his presentation by discussing the location and special characteristics
of the Ashram and the motive to not disturb the current scenario and just make it more
lively, open and accessible to the people of Ahmedabad.
• He discussed the detail proposal, scope of work and main component of the project
highlighting that the revitalization project would not just focus on the Ashram area but
would also undertake areas of the periphery and how the development along the river
will merge with the Sabarmati river front project.

Prof. Dhar thanked Mr. Balaji for putting forward a critical assessment and then explained some
of the initiatives taken towards this issue and appealed other cities to also come forward and
share their initiatives taken towards Heritage management and planning. Mr. Dhar thanked all
the presenters of the session and ended 2nd technical session.
4.4 WAY FORWARD Dr. Ray then requested Mr. M P Vasimalai, Member NTAG
advisory committee to deliver a speech on the way forward.
He concluded all the sessions by showing his happiness
towards all the initiatives taken by PEARL cities so far and
wished that it continues. He stared his speech by suggesting
that initialization of a heritage walks and any such activities
are not an easy work or a “quick fix” but a lot more of
foundation work and back ground studies must be done and
micro documentation is required. Mr. Vasimalai also
suggested that an initiative of this kind cannot be a top to
bottom approach but stake holders of the city needs to be
engaged. He also added that not just 17 but all 65 cities
under JNNURM must incorporate the component of Heritage
in their development plan. He mentioned the case of Ahmedabad and said that the city still has a
long way to go and out of 15000 identified buildings only 200 have been conserved by now. He
ended his speech by addressing the issue of limited funding under PEARL and wished that the
process of this kind can go forward and all the interaction with knowledge managers must go to
Central Sectioning and Monitoring Committee (CSMC) to establish a connection. At last he said
there is a lot to be done and all the cities must work towards it.
Due to certain last moment security related aspects, the
presentation on CDP and DPR toolkits were not possible, as
planned. Since all the PEARL participants were also attending
the UNESCO event, it was decided to take up these
presentations on the next day.
The UNESCO Programme executive also requested NIUA to
upload the documents on India urban portal so that the
other cities can also access the resource materials.

5.0 PEARL AHMEDABAD RECCOMENDATIONS The workshop addressed some of the extremely important issues related to Heritage planning and management. Distinguished speakers and presenters brought important issues forward. PEARL Ahmedabad discussed the following very important issues. Some of the highlighted issues are
• One of the city representative suggested that UNESCO should provide all the JnNNURM cities with standardized guidelines for better implementation and Heritage Management approach.
• PEARL‐Heritage Cities network should be expanded to all other important cities and towns and be not restricted to only 17 cities.
• PEARL Annual Activity Report should be sent to all JnNURM cities.
• Immediate review of overall PEARL programme at the Ministry Level is required.
• More financial and technical support for activities both at City level and cluster level
under the JnNURM‐PEARL program should be allotted.
• Existing Community Participation Fund (CPF) under JnNNURM should be linked to Heritage Related Activities.
• Heritage conservation should be treated as inclusive urban development strategy , which includes marginal population and is sensitive towards the whole city.
• Heritage planning and management should be a bottom up approach and stakeholders of
the cities should be included in the process.
• PEARL Secretariat should harmonize various multiple guidelines, toolkits for Urban Heritage Management for better implementation.
• interactions between PEARL cities and knowledge managers should be documented at
Central Sectioning and Monitoring Committee (CSMC) for better proceedings.
