Chapter ñ6 Final Report: Thiruvathipuram Municipality 6.2.2 SLUM PROFILE Thirupathipuram Town has 9 slum settlements and total population living in these slums is 7,794 i.e. 22.55% (Refer Annexure-II.g) of total population of Thirupathipuram town lives in slum areas. The ratio of slum population to the total ward population is highest in Kanniyam Nagar, Kamaraj Nagar, Ambedkar Nagar which are 100%. The poverty is not a major problem in these slums as most of the people are the workers. Most of the slum dwellers are migrants from hinterland of the town and from the neighbouring districts and more than half of them are staying for more then 10 years in the town. 6.2.3 SLUM IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMMES In the town only Integrated Housing and Slum Development Program (IHSDP) is in operation for slum improvement. This programme is taken up by Thiruvathipuram Municipality and now under operation. 6.2.4 ISSUES The problems and issues relating to housing and slums have been identified on the basis of secondary data collected and synthesis of stakeholder discussions. The issues mainly focus on basic urban services, supply of affordable services land for housing, development guidelines and awareness amongst slum dwellers. Due to improper monitoring and implementation of development regulation more than one-third of the town population lives in slums Most of the slum population is dependant on the informal trade and granite industries for livelihood. Lack of access to services in wards where dominance of slum prevails and on the land developed for housing by private developers. Lack of basic services leads to open defecation and garbage disposal within the municipal limits Lack of awareness among slum dwellers regarding health and hygiene. Lack of planned interventions in the past Dominance of sub-standard urban basic services Increasing informal settlements on public lands by low income in-migrants due to unaffordable land supply within municipal limits Increasing inadequate serviced land for housing within municipal limits. Lack of awareness regarding health and hygiene Unregulated physical development . - 34 - Voyants Solutions Private Limited
