Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 0
Abstract
The Department of Chemicals & Petrochemicals (DOC&PC), Government of India (GoI) has approved the Gujarat Petroleum, Chemical & Petrochemical Investment Region (PCPIR) at Dahej (District: Bharuch) in the year 2009. MOA is signed between DOC&PC and the Government of Gujarat (GoG) in the year 2010 for developing the Special Investment Region (SIR) under the provisions of the state legislature of the year 2009. Dahej is a Village in Vagra Taluka in Bharuch District of Gujarat State, India. The District of Bharuch witnessed a surge in investments in chemicals & petrochemicals, drugs & pharmaceuticals, engineering and textiles as well as allied services. The district is an inherent part of the popularly referred golden corridor for chemical and petrochemical industries which extends from Ahmedabad to Vapi. The presence of existing industrial estates at Dahej, Vilayat and Panoli have enhanced the location attractiveness of the Region. Current research proposed a population projection considering diverse aspects concerning industrial needs. In the census of India (2011), the reported population in the region was about 69,000 which will grow to 85,400 in a natural course of time and trend. The Govt. of Gujarat (GoG) is committed to undertaking speedy implementation of all the active projects like freight corridor, National Express Highway No. 1, Airport and such. The effect of industrial migration will have a significant effect on the settlement and will be developed as an urban centre, and it will house a more substantial population yet. These citizens will need not only housing but social infrastructure facilities as well. Based on the analysis, the needs in housing sector under various categories and classes are projected. Besides, the needs for social infrastructure, addressing the education, health, socio-cultural, open spaces, recreational spaces, sports facilities, distribution services, safety and security services, and safety management are identified and envisaged for need-based development that generates an opportunity at different levels.
