Abstract
The present concern of urban planners is related to recovering the challenges posed by the accelerated
growth of metropolitan cities. It is realized that there is a very thin line between urbanization and sustainability.
Peri-urban settlements are characterized by various flows from the urban. These flows tend to have an impact
on the social, economic and physical aspects in these settlements. Literature reading is carried out to
understand the peri-urban areas and its challenges. The works of literature referred are based on the planning
of land use, rural spatial planning, Sustainable Livelihood, Peri-Urban area. To achieve sustainable
development, one shall apply integrated planning approach, micro level planning in rural land, zoning, village
development plan and other such corrective planning theories. The current paper puts forth the impacts on the
livelihood sustainability in the peri-urban due to the urban impacts.
Keywords: Land management, Peri-urbanization Settlement, sustainable development, Smart development,
Sustainable Livelihood, Urbanization
I. INTRODUCTION
India has experienced a high rate of
urbanization since independence due to the
industrial and economic growth-oriented policies.
Developing countries like India are passing through
a phase of rapid urbanization, the magnitude of
urban population in India is second highest in the
world. Cities are growing and expanding very
rapidly changing their limit.
The urbanization rate in India is likely to go
up from 31.16% in 2011 to 38.2% in 2026.
Villages, located today in the fringe Area will
tomorrow agglomerate within an Urban area. In
India there are 6,50,216 villages out of them
1,25,000 villages are backward so there is a need
for designing and building the village as a smart
village. The surrounding villages often come under
the influence of urbanization and pressure depends
on the direction and intensity of growth of the city.
[1]
The fringe villages draw a large number of
people into the urban-rural interface, mostly
because of internal and external factors such as
economic activities and access to basic needs. With
modernization and urbanization people migrate
from one place to another place for different
facilities such as education, employment and
affinity of people towards the locality or city. The
surrounding villages often come under the
influence of urbanization and pressure depends on
the direction and intensity of growth of the city.
The villages located on the fringe are likely to be
developed as the city limit expands.
II. CRITICAL LITERATURE REVIEW
As in literature are thoroughly referred relating to
the peri-urbanization, land use planning, rural
spatial planning, peri-urban morphology,
sustainable planning of peri-urban areas, its
dynamics and typology. Hence, the literature
divided into several topics.
