City Development Plan for Agra City in the state of Uttar Pradesh under <strong>JNNURM</strong> Roman Catholic Cemetery, as it is popularly called, is situated on the eastern extension of the Mahatma Gandhi Road (MG Road), opposite to the Civil Court of Agra. It is one of the ancient most Christian cemeteries in Agra. As per reports, the site of the cemetery is part of the estate granted by Akbar to the Roman Catholic Mission. The cemetery contains tombs of different nationalities. About sixty monuments including three World Heritage Sites are under the protection of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) and most of them belong to the architectural grandeur of the Mughals (1526-1707). The list of protected monuments is given in Annexure 5.1. Besides these monuments there are about one hundred unprotected monuments, heritage buildings, remains of gardens etc. which should be the target of the present development plan of Agra city. With tourist’s interest in mind there is a need to survey these historical places and develop them as places of tourist interest by providing facilities like motorable roads, basic amenities like toilets, potable water, a respectable canteen, trained guides etc. St. Johns College founded in 1850 Environmental Impact on Monuments: In order to keep the monuments at Agra in sound and strong condition for survival till posterity the quality of air should be free of industrial pollutants, suspended particulate matter fly ash etc. In this connection the Apex court has ordered the closure of Iron foundries, which were polluting the environment. The Indian Railways having a shunting yard near Agra fort were asked to use low content sulphur fuel in order to keep the pollution under control. Authorities of Mathura Refinery are aware of the importance of role of air pollution and accordingly they have taken measures for up-gradation of pollution control equipment for the reduction of Sulphur Dioxide (So2) contents of air during winter months (November- December- January-February). This is significant because the gaseous pollutants are heavier than air and have a tendency to remain suspended at lower levels and their concentrations during low temperatures in winter months may cross critical limits and thus, set in the process of degradation of material of monuments (marble, sandstone, mortar, iron dowels, iron clamps etc). Suspended particulate matter (SPM) is reported to be higher then permissible levels at Agra and they are a cause of concern. They contain red colored compounds of iron, which cause oxidation of so2, Nox etc. to corresponding acids. These mineral acids even in small concentrations can be harmful to the material of monuments and also to the living beings. In view of the above, the following issues are identified:- -25- MDP Consultants in association with Allianz Securities Ltd Roman Catholic Cemetery
