Hello, and welcome to the official web site of the Office of Advisor to the Hon'ble Chief Minister of Karnataka on Urban Affairs.
On these pages, you will find a number of ideas for strengthening the urban areas of the state economically and socially, and links to experiments that are being attempted in a few places. These ideas and experiments are broadly classifiable as follows:
- Coordinated development of neighbourhoods
- Improving civic infrastructure
- Strengthening urban livelihoods
- New Developments and Satellite Towns
- Policy Documents
- Innovations and best practices
- Attracting investments to solve critical social and economic problems
- Promoting e-governance
The Office of Urban Affairs Advisor will hold regular monthly events showcasing its work in each of the above areas, and invite participation from a variety of stakeholders - informed thought leaders, community development organisations, academic institutions and private citizens. Let us build urban Karnataka together, to meet today's challenges and to prepare for tomorrow's.
Thanks and regards,
Dr A Ravindra
Advisor to the Hon'ble CM, Urban Affairs
