The HMDA master plan 2031 of hyderabad has proposed a radial-concentric structure of development with new urban nodes and urban centers in all directions to promote balanced development in the Hyderabad Metropolitan Region with a Peri Urban Zone all along the urban area, hierarchy of circulation network to cater to the present and future travel needs of population and activities.
Prestige Group, the ace real estate developer of South India, developing landmark properties across diverse segments for decades, is launching another plush residential enclave, The Prestige City Hyderabad, in Umda Nagar, East Hyderabad. Spread across a huge expanse, this stunning property will house an array of 1, 2, and 3 bedroom sets of impressive apartments in ideally placed high-rise towers, with varied dimensions, layouts, and prices in addition to choicest architecture, specs, airy interiors with ample ventilation and flow of natural light. The property zone will be elegantly designed, topped with greenery and water bodies, and select and lavish leisure amenities, facilities, and conveniences. The Prestige City Hyderabad master plan will provide pictorial details about the property - every key feature inside and outside the periphery is to be marked. The project is a pre-launch one, and the details are awaited from the builder.
A master plan is necessary for developing any real estate project; a builder needs it for their references and official formalities, and potential buyers need it for clarity on the purchase. Reputed builders ensure that every possible detail about the property is included in the master plan. In a two-dimensional mode, it is a visual blueprint of the project, which has the complete layout, design, dimension, and framework of the property and how every object is placed within its confines, viz. buildings or plots, open spaces, landscapes, greenery, water bodies, leisure amenities, facilities, pathways, entry, exits, etc. The master plan also highlights the crucial landmarks, roads, metro, natural attractions, etc., outside the periphery of the property.
Prestige Group is known for drafting a thorough master plan highlighting all pivotal entities about the property. Discerning investors interested can go through the master plan along with all information about the project. The realtor will be sharing the Prestige City Hyderabad master plan soon, which will comprise everything that is inside and outside the project premises.
The Prestige City Hyderabad is located in Umda Nagar, East Hyderabad, which has been revamped to facilitate the people here. The physical and social infra of this place is developing in a modern and planned way, with the road services connecting seamlessly to the major areas of the city. All the necessities required for the sustenance of livelihood and lifestyle are accessible or in the neighbourhood, like the employment zones, education, healthcare, banking, shopping, entertainment, dining, hospitality, personal care, and grooming, etc. Excellent residences of all types, with superb architecture, interiors, features and amenities, facilities, etc., in various price ranges, are getting developed here.
Quli Qutb Shah, the founder of the city of Hyderabad, is believed to have said this after he shifted the capital of his Deccan kingdom from the nearby Golconda to a small village called Chichlam that would later evolve into present-day Hyderabad (Bhatnagar 14). From the Qutb Shahi grid plan centred on Charminar to the mutating, multiplying sprawl of the present-day city of Hyderabad, a part of his prayer can be termed prophetic. Migration after migration, his city would be filled with people to an extent that its perimeter would have to keep stretching outward to make space for its inhabitants. However, the river that Quli crossed would become extinct in this process because of the people he so wished would populate his city.
Hyderabad is said to have originated out of a Quranic plan of heaven, on the bank of the River Musi. One can notice, still, the long avenue all the way from Char Kaman passing through the Char Su Ka Roz (symbolic of the origin of four heavenly Quranic rivers), with Charminar at the centre. Behind the shops, some of which are as old as the road itself, are the houses of the residents of Old City. This mixed-neighbourhood planning of the Qutb Shahis has sustained until this day, but the city was to grow manifold in the centuries to come.
This paper is inspired by various such interactions with master plans and ethnographic studies in the city ever since. By taking Hyderabad as its prime case study, it aims to understand certain problems of the master plan and bring to light its failure in ensuring sustainable development and its insensitivity to existing local development models. Taking a cue from such models, the paper also aims to propose, through examples, new methodologies of development that may help in shaping cities better.
Re-orientation of this kind must involve studying the city in a unique way and mapping it from a perspective that is indigenous and innovative. This may in turn create complex discourses in urban planning and lead to the discovery of new ideologies. It may also give access to people to develop their own locales in an unhindered way. Such spontaneous and organic development of a city is extremely critical in the present scenario where we are heading towards increasingly monocultural methodologies of planning that are largely top-down approaches and seldom answer the needs of the city.
Master plans will have to, therefore, take into account the issues, nuances, and necessities of the people who live in these spaces before providing unworkable schemes. They must also look to the local solutions to see if they may have the potential to serve other similar instances of urban population.
Even though there is enough emphasis on master plans and other conservation proposals by administrative bodies towards heritage, the vital question to ask becomes: Are the proposals materialising into reality?
There are two such examples in Hyderabad that come to mind: The Osmania General Hospital, which was built by the last Nizam and was threatened with demolition multiple times by the government. Due to pressure from conservation organisations, this proposal was later rescinded; however, such dissent is not taken into consideration by public bodies when master plans are proposed, devoid of any concern for public heritage. The Hyderabad Metro Rail layout was planned to cut across one of the oldest markets of the city, Sultan Bazar. The shopkeepers in the market were compensated for the demolition of their shops, but the cultural and social fabric of Sultan Bazar is now frayed. The erstwhile pedestrian street is now overshadowed by large metro pillars. The 200-year-old heritage precinct is visually obstructed by the track built above the market street. In addition to this is the reduced public accessibility to these shops and the rift caused between the shopkeepers of Sultan Bazar and its neighbouring Badi Chowdi market due to events that are associated with the construction of the metro line.
This approach demonstrates that there is indeed a possibility of creating such solutions where participatory models which engage with both the public and the administration can be formulated for overall urban development. The fact that a delineated urban zone was proposed shows both the inadequacy of the existing master plan and the prospect for a more nuanced approach through subsequent master plans.
By studying lapses in the master plan through ethnographic studies and urban research, and by citing examples of three typologies of spaces, this paper has proposed a re-orientation of the master plan across three significant elements of the document. Each of these are inventive forms of development that utilise the existing potential of a city as opposed to looking outward to integrate more land and people into its boundaries. These approaches will therefore help to re-activate the core of the city without external interventions but through self-sustained measures.
Master plans may not have the capacity to delve deeply into the nuances of spaces. However, it is imperative that planners remain aware of the evolution that happens in streets and neighbourhoods without their intervention. It is necessary that these approaches are considered with sensitivity and integrated into the planning mechanisms of a city in a manner that is not forced or rigidly prescriptive. The most necessary approach to planning is that people and the systemic workings of the city they inhabit are not unfamiliar to each other, as from this unfamiliarity comes monotony and eventual decay.
For planned development of cities, state authorities rely on mater plans that envision and set the rules for the future development of a city. It is in this context that we discuss the key provisions of the Hyderabad Master Plan 2031 or the HMDP-2031, which envisages the planned development of the city with a population of about 1.84 crores and a workforce of about 65 lakhs. The HMDP masterplan 2031 draft was prepared in 2011, keeping in view the trends that were then prevalent. The city has since been developed based on the model prescribed under the HMDP-2031. Discussed in detail in this article are the key details of the HMDP-2031.
Hyderabad can easily be counted among the most promising residential and commercial hubs in India, because of the unprecedented growth it has registered in both areas. Despite an overall slowdown in commercial and residential segments in India, the city of Nizams has acted as an exception, even in the Coronavirus-hit year 2020. The present growth trend could easily be attributed to the proper planning of the city.
