Project Detail:
The program supports the government's national programs that promote cities as engines of economic growth by improving the quality of urban life through the creation of high-quality urban infrastructure, assured service provisions, and efficient governance. The program aligns with ADB's country partnership strategy for India, 2018-2022, which envisages inclusive urbanization by supporting investments in municipal infrastructure, promoting municipal reforms, improving governance, and building capacity in ULBs, through a mix of modalities, including policy advice. Policy support will help achieve universal and equitable access to urban services in line with ADB Strategy 2030 and its operational priorities (OPs) of addressing remaining poverty and reducing inequalities (OP1); accelerating progress in gender equality (OP2); tackling climate change, building climate and disaster resilience, and enhancing environmental sustainability (OP3); making cities more livable (OP4); and strengthening governance and institutional capacity (OP6).
In subprogram 2, ADB through the TA supported MOHUA in development of a digital platform for AMRUT 2.0 paperless mission M&E establishing data-driven governance to ensure monitoring of timely delivery of mission outputs and outcomes. ADB further supported MOHUA in developing roadmap for groundwater recharge and augmentation through aquifer mapping and operationalizing technical and operational guidelines for ULBs to implement time-bound urban aquifer management plans with a focus on maintaining positive groundwater balance in urban aquifer.
