Foreword

FOREWORD
Haphazard and unplanned urbanization is the result of increasing population growth and
transmigration from rural to urban areas, industrial growth, economic opportunities, and
agriculture land capture and due to other social compulsions. This is resulting in resources,
constraint due to detrimental land use patterns, diminishing water resources and greenery,
increasing demand for land, shelter and infrastructure utilities, traffic congestion, increasing
pollution levels, public health hazards, urban disasters along with an overall decrease in the
quality of life of people living in urban areas.
There is a strong need to have a planned design, approach and commitment for an optimum
use of urban resources. It also calls for proper planning and management and effective
policies and procedures for implementation. One of the ways to address it is to make
available an up-to-date, reliable and accurate information to the urban planners, urban
managers and decision makers,
Punjab is the most populous province in Pakistan, with 40% of its population (some 38
million), living in urban areas. While the majority of this urban population (nearly 20 million),
lives in Punjabs five large cities, nearly 6.3 million live in intermediate cities having
population of between 250,000 and 1 million.
Punjab Cities Improvement Investment Program (PCIIP) targets investments in urban
management infrastructure and services across clusters of cities in Punjab. This will make
cities more efficient and services more sustainable. PCIIP will promote safe, reliable, and
more widely available water, sanitation, and transport. The Government of Pakistan
requested that the Asian Development Bank provide a Multi-tranche Financing Facility to
support the proposed Punjab Cities Improvement Investment Program.
One of the outputs of the PCIIP was to develop a profile for each of the eleven cities that
provided a detailed existing situation identifying gaps, wherever possible. The profile was to
focus on providing sectoral information services of Water, Sanitation, Solid Waste
Management and Urban Transport for the City.
Information is vital to make sound decisions at the tehsil, district, regional, provincial and
national levels. Urban planning, management, transport, water systems, waste management
municipal finance, environmental protection, land use assessments, Crime management,
business development, flood mitigation and disaster recovery are just a few examples of
areas that require basic information. The reports on City Profile provide information about
the socio-economic and demographic data of these cities. It also covers the different sectors
of water supply and sanitation, solid waste management and transportation. It is hoped that
these reports on the City Profiles will help in future planning and development of these
cities.

Preface

PREFACE
I am pleased to present separate reports on the City Profile for eleven intermediate cities of
Punjab as an important source of information for planners and decision makers. The reports
have been developed as a pre-requisite of the Punjab Cities Improvement Investment
Program (PCIIP) financed by the Asian Bank. This program seeks to develop capacity
for, and support the institutionalization of urban sectors, to improve the provision of utility
services and to strengthen policymaking capacities towards meeting the rapid urbanization
challenges.
Urbanization is one of the key challenges of the opening decades of this new millennium. It
is one of the most powerful, irreversible forces in the world. It is taking place at a rapid rate.
If properly managed, the process of urbanization provides the key to overall national and
regional development. The proper management of the urbanization requires the accurate
base line data.
Increasing pollution, resources constraint, detrimental land use patterns, public health, traffic
congestion and an overall decrease in quality of life is plaguing many of our urban areas.
The proper management of these causes and concerns in urban areas call for accurate and
vital information to be available on a regular basis to the decision-makers. To evolve an
urban planning system that is dynamic, flexible and efficient must be backed by up-to-date,
reliable and accurate information. There is constant pressure to make wise decisions in a
more cost effective and efficient manner. Accurate and current information are critical to
these decisions.
The reports on the City Profile of eleven intermediate cities of Punjab have been produced
by M/s. GHK (consultants). It summarizes the basic data collected through primary and
secondary sources. It also involved a thorough and extensive consultation with the District
Government and TMAs representatives from all eleven intermediate cities, and extensive
consultations with the representatives of NGOs.
I recommend the reports as an important source of information for civil servants,
representatives of civil society organizations, donors and organizations for future
planning and development of these cities.

Executive Summary

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Punjab is the most populous province in Pakistan, with 40% of its population (some 38
million), living in urban areas. While the majority of this urban population (nearly 20 million),
lives in Punjabs five large cities, nearly 6.3 million live in intermediate cities having
population of between 250,000 and 1 million.
The Government of Pakistan requested that the Asian Development Bank provide a Multitranche Financing Facility to support the proposed Punjab Cities Improvement Investment
Program over a five year period. The program covers 11 cities in Punjab Province with the
city of Sialkot being the first to be covered under the Tranche 1 funding. The Tranche 1
program at Sialkot includes both physical and non-physical interventions.
Punjab Cities Improvement Investment Program (PCIIP or the Investment Program) targets
investments in urban management infrastructure and services across clusters of cities in
Punjab. This will make cities more efficient and services more sustainable. PCIIP will
promote safe, reliable, and more widely available water, sanitation, and transport.
One of the outputs of the PCIIP was to develop a profile for each of the program cities that
provided a detailed existing situation identifying gaps, wherever possible. The profile was to
focus on providing sectorial information services of Water, Sanitation, Solid Waste
Management and Urban Transport for the City.
Different Government agencies in Punjab are already working hard to improve the urban
services. As such, there are a number of existing recent reports from which data can be
obtained or referred to and where there was limited data that existed; this was collected from
the government departments by making trips to the concerned PCIIP cities. Collection of
data for this exercise also allowed the comparison of PCIIP cities to be made. Considerable
discussions with a number of officials at most PCIIP cities also took place to verify data and
to ensure that officials were happy with the collected data. A number of GIS maps were also
prepared to show the spatial distribution of services infrastructure.
This document Kasur City Profile is the tenth profile in the series of publications.
The Kasur City
Kasur city is located on Ferozepur road, at a distance of about 55 kilometers from Lahore,
the Provincial Headquarter, on the south-east. The city is well connected with Lahore and
other areas of the country by road and rail links. Its geographical coordinates are 31 7'3.40"
north and longitudes are 7426'59.82"east
The fauna and flora of the area include only a few Rakhs or portions of forest which are kept
as gazing ground for cattle etc. Amongst trees the most important are Kikar (Acacia arbica),
Shisham or Tahli (Dalbergia sissoo), Beri (Zizyphus jajaba), Toot (Morus marlaccae), Sharin
(Albizzia lebbek, Dharek (Malia azerdaracb), Phulahi (Acacia modesta), and Nim (Melia
indica), Piple (Ficus indica) are planted for shade.
Wolf and jackal are the only wild animals of any importance. The former being met with
occasionally in the low land wastes of Chunian Tehsil but jackal are found everywhere.
Changa Manga reserve a thick forest is the only area in which a few Nelgai, pig, and peafowl
and here are found

Kasur City Profile


Executive Summary

(Population reported by Urban Unit) was 317,628 in 1998, literacy rate of the City was
48.8%, average household size 7.2, annual growth rate during 1981-98 was 2.72%. (District
Census Report 1998). Present Projected population is 404,550.
SWOT Analysis of the Kasur City
On the basis of the statistics presented in this profile, Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities
and Threats (SWOT) analysis was undertaken and is provided below:

External

Internal

Strengths
Good connectivity to the Lahore and Depal pur
through inter-city road and rail networks.
Good foundations for a fairly diverse range of
economic activities and industries that have
potential to be scaled up.

Weaknesses
Lack of training and development for TMA staff
and currently no in-house planning and
coordination control capacity.
Poor level of basic municipal services and
currently no development investment/
expenditure

Opportunities

Threats

Good potential to expand tourist base and


services industry (also from good connectivity
with proximate cities).
Low unemployment rate and relatively good
health indicators suggest fairly skilled and
healthy labor force useful for scaling up
economic activities

Poor level of planning and low level of overall


infrastructure provision will be a disincentive for
private sector inward investment and migration both will be necessary to improve its economic
comparative advantage to other small-medium
sized urban centers.

Kasur City Services Comparison with Other Cities


The overall analysis of the data collected shows that Kasur is in a better position compared
to other PCIIP cities in Punjab i.e. Jhang, D.G Khan, Sheikhupura. Table E1 presents
information about the total population, services delivery coverage, economic activities,
collection against demand, O&M Cost, investment in Services, TMA staff management filled
etc. Key findings include:
1.

Management of Liquid Waste services coverage in Kasur City has the lowest
coverage among all PCIIP cities in Punjab i.e. only 1%.There is no difference
of ultimate disposal of both the wastes (Solid Waste and Liquid Waste) which
are being disposed as untreated to nearby outlets and dumping of Solid
Waste near city areas. Kasur has been suffering from an environmental
degradation, not only to air, surface water, fertile land and groundwater, but
also a direct health hazard to the people living and working the affected areas
as a result of: 9,000 cubic meters of heavily polluted tannery waste water
from the three tannery clusters per day. About 2,500 cubic meters of the
above tannery effluent together with domestic sewage is discharged into the
Rohi Nullah. This is used for irrigation in the downstream parts of Rohi Nullah.
The remaining is discharged to the stagnant pools permanently covering an
area of 327 acres and another 311 acres during the monsoon period. The
chemically polluted water adversely affects the growth of crops, plants and
crop yields outputs from animals and their health, in addition to contributing to
social problems in the area.

Kasur City Profile


Executive Summary

Drinking water supply situation of Kasur city are almost same like in other
cities i.e. Chiniot, Okara, Sargodha, Gujrat, and far better than the cities like
Sheikhupura, Bahawalpur, jhang, Sialkot. It almost covers the population of
70%.
Presently Urban transport is becoming vital issue of Kasur City, because of its
rapid population, urbanization and industrialization growth. It requires
immediate attention to plan for present and future needs for urban transport
services. Currently urban transport services in Bahawalpur are similar as
have in other cities, like use of Motor Cycle Rickshaws, and Auto Rickshaws
as urban transport
Kasur has good economic conditions because of its geographic location and
connectivity with Provincial head quarter and other major cities by rail and
Roads. Kasur is famous for raw leather production which is sent within
country and exported for further cutting, polishing etc. Shoe making industry
for sale within and outside the country has also flourished in last two decades
and is a major cause of economic well being of lower class of area. Chemical
production is also a good business in the city. Kasur is also well-known as the
city of foods, there are so many foods industries are working with the best
quality like: Kasuri Methi, Rice, Corn, Potatoes and many other vegetable &
fruits products.
Schedule of establishment of TMA Kasur shows that TMA has 70% filled
position; this is encouraging compared to the TMA Jhang as it has only 52%
filled positions. On other side the situation is very discouraging, because
three major positions are vacant since last many months i.e. Tehsil Officer
Infrastructures & Services and Tehsil Officer Planning & Coordination and
Tehsil Officer Regulation are vacant since last several months. This clearly is
effecting on current service delivery and future requirements. at this
movement clerks and juniors are working without proper direction

Kasur City Profile


Executive Summary

Section I of this document presents a brief introduction to the city, its geography, socioeconomics, environment, water-borne & hygiene related diseases, comparative advantage,
weaknesses and economic potential and importance of city related to National Trade
Corridor. A SWOT analysis has also been provided. At the end of the section, different
statistics are compared and analysed with other PCIIP cities.
The socioeconomic data of Kasur indicates that it is marginally above the provincial
averages. However, the margins are not sufficiently large to suggest a comparative
advantage to the other cities under review.
Section II provides service delivery baseline data. It lists down major issues related to Water
Supply, Sewerage & Drainage and Solid waste Management. A scaled map of each sector is
also presented to show existing systems and management within the city, Similarly, major
issues regarding urban transport are also discussed with evidence provided in the form of
data showing number of motor vehicles registered, major crossings and roads, parking
places, urban transportation routes, flyovers, underpasses, bus/wagon stands and urban
transport services available in the city.
Water Supply:
The water supply is currently sourced from ground water and 43 tube wells. This water
supply network covers 75% of the town and serves 70% of the total population. The
distribution system consists of 7 overhead reservoirs six of 50,000 gallon capacity and one
of 60,000 gallon capacity. The total capacity of these reservoirs is 360,000 gallons.
The Public Health Engineering Department (PHED) has developed a water supply plan
which is part of the overall Kasur Environmental improvement Project. The scope of the
project includes replacing and installing pipes, 31 hydro chlorinators, and the establishment
of a water testing laboratory.

Sewerage and Drainage: The coverage of the sewerage facility is approximately 1% of the
population and 3% of the total area.1 The existing sewerage system consist of Pacca
Channels constructed by the local body and is being disposed in the Rohi Nullah.
This Nullah is an open sewer and almost the entire sewage and wastewater from the
tanneries (other than the four clusters now connected with the Common Effluent Pretreatment Plant (CEPTP)) is being discharged there. This waste is ultimately disposed in the
Pandoki Seepage Drain. PHED has been executing a sewerage upgrading and drainage
project in Kasur, which includes planned improvement of drains and a 200 acre sewage
treatment plant.

Solid Waste Management: The existing solid waste management system of Kasur
comprises of onsite storage, collection, transfer and disposal. Primary collection is
performed by sanitary workers who sweep the streets and collect solid waste from small
heaps with wheel barrows. This waste is then stored at permanent and temporary collection
points. Most of the town is covered by primary collection except for the areas extended by
new habitants.
A solid waste plan has been developed by PHED, which includes the construction of a 74
acre landfill and the purchase of machinery to improve solid waste collection. The landfill site
has been proposed 8km from the City.

Executive Summary

Transport: Most of the roads owned by TMA Kasur is in good condition and need minor
repairs. However, there are no traffic signals in any Chowk and no urban bus or van services
are available. Urban transport is largely limited to motorcycle rickshaws or auto rickshaws.
With the rapid expansion of the city, the transport infrastructure will soon become incapable
of meeting the appropriate requirements. In 2002 to 2008, the number of motor vehicles
registered grew from 25,780 to 33,614.
Section III is about Human Resources available at TMA level..
TMA Human Resources: All posts in of the TMA management are filled by permanent staff
apart from the Tehsil Officer for Planning over the last few months in 2010. This has had
significant impact on expenditure for public services, with no expenditures on public utilities
evident since 2009.
Section IV discusses the finance situation of Kasur TMA
Finance:
The available financial data indicates that the revenue generated from water supply services
is satisfactory: more than 85% of the revenue collected against the operation and
management (O&M) costs for most years apart from 2006-2007 (73%). This suggests that
TMA Kasur is generating accurate water bills with a satisfactory willingness to pay by its
customers.
The utilization in the non-development (Revenue) expenditure has been reasonable except
2006-2007 which was less than 85%. However on the development side in 2006-2007 and
2008-2009 the utilization rate has been slow, and in 2009-2010 it was non-existent.
Section V is regarding major projects and future development of the city about the
concerned sectors, providing with major on-going and future projects and forecast for future
projects along with the costs of the development.
Section VI is about different aspects of Urban Planning.
Urban Form: The city of Kasur was developed over one thousand years ago as an
aggregation of small fortified hamlets, called Kots. The inner part of the city is very compact
and fortified on all sides, requiring narrow streets to enter, which used to serve as gate
passageways. The Outline Development Plan of 1995-2020 indicates that the total area
within the municipal limits is 5136 acres Urban
Growth and Connectivity: While the inner part of the City is generally in ordered and regular
patterns, extensions beyond the walled city have occurred haphazardly in all directions
without proper planning. Commercial and public buildings are often found within residential
areas. Leap-frog development is also noted to be occurring towards the eastern side of the
inner city.
Urban Planning and Future Development: Two outline development plans (1980-1995 and
1995-2020) have been developed and used for formulating systematic and planned growth
proposals
Economics: The city of Kasur is a town of considerable antiquity. It has become a tourist
attraction for the daily occurring Flags lowering ceremony, and for the famous man-made
forest, Changa Manga, which is located 30 miles west of the City.
Active industries in Kasur include its raw leather production, which is exported abroad for
further manufacturing, as well as its machine and handloom manufacturing. Shoe making
industry for sale within and outside the country has flourished in last two decades and is a
major cause of economic well-being of the lower strata of the City. Other productive

Introduction & History of City

Kasur is one of the oldest cities of Pakistan. In ancient times, it was just a small settlement
with Katcha houses on the northern bank of the older river Beas. According to an estimate
Kasur was a big village in 1 AD. In 553 Ad this was occupied by Khaweshgan. In 1020 AD,
Kasur was included in the territory of Lahore, which was the capital of the state under Raja
Jaipal. When Emperor Baber captured the whole of India in 1526AD, he gave this city to the
Afghans as a token of their service towards his victory. During the reign of Shah Jahan and
Aurangzeb, Kasur was glorified and every rich man constructed his own palace in Kasur. In
1830 AD Maharaja Ranjeet Singh captured Kasur and it was under Sikh role by the year
1847 when the British took over control of India.
The city Kasur is famous for its very spicy fish, Kasuri Falooda, sweet dishes "Andrassa and
Dhoda (sohan halwa) and Kasuri methi. Apart from that, it is also the birthplace of Noor
Jehan, the famous Pakistani singer and actress who gained popularity in the 1950's. It is
also famous for saint Baba Bullay Shah whose tomb is in this city. According to some
historians, the name Kasur is derived from Kasha war, the same way Lahore is said to be
taken from Lahawar.Kush, the son of Ram Chander or Rama, is said to have founded Kasur
like his brother Lohor Lav is said to have founded Lahore. However, some historians opine
that Kasur is a Persian word and a plural of Kasr or Qasr (meaning palace), which the
name was given during the times Kasur was a remarkable colony of Pathans, perhaps the
most remarkable on this side of Indus. There is said to be seven tribes of Pathan who settled
here sometimes during the reign of Mughal king Baber but more probably in 1560, during the
times of his grandson Akbar. At that time the town is said to have a population of about
3,500. Among the Pathans who settled here were certain Hasanzais, whose descendants
became the chiefs of the town and founded a considerable principality, including territory on
both banks of the Sutlej River.
History of the area is often endorsed as being very ancient by quoting the mud filled town
near it (1/2 km away from District Headquarters), which was called Rohay Wal. A tomb of a
Muslim mystic Baba Kamal Chishti and some other graves are still found at the top of these
teelas, who was of Mughal era and disciple of Baba Fareed-ud-Din Ganj Shakar and Nizamud-Din Aulia. Many of these teelas has been dug up and has been levelled to ground for
encroachments and roads etc. It is said that Rohay Wal (the lost town) was once the main
city and the current city was a suburb of that. The city is built upon the high bank which
marks the termination of the Majha and looks down upon the lowlands of the Satluj hither. It
is a place of great antiquity and is identified by the historians as one of the place visited by
the Chinese pilgrim, Howang Tsang in the 7th century BC but it does not appear in history
until late in the Muslim period when it was established as a Pashtun colony near the
northern/western bank of the Sutlej.
These migrants entered the town either in the reign of Babar or in that of his grandson Akbar
and founded a considerable principality with territory on both sides of the Sutlej. When the
Sikhs rose to power, they met great opposition from the Pashtuns of Kasur. The chiefs of the
Bhangi confederacy stormed the town in the 1763 and again in 1770 and although they
succeeded in holding the entire principality for a while, the Pashtun leaders re-established
their independence in 1794 and resisted many subsequent attacks. The town of Kasur was
incorporated in the Kingdom of Lahore by Ranjit Singh in 1807 and had been a municipality
since 1885. There is said to be seven tribes of Pathan who settled here sometimes during
the reign of Moghal king Baber but more probably in 1560, during the times of his grandson
Akbar. At that time the town is said to have a population of about 3,500. Among the Pathans
who settled here were certain Hasanzais, whose descendants became the chiefs of the town
and founded a considerable principality, including territory on both banks of the Sutlej River.

Kasur City Profile


Existing Situation

When the Sikhs rose to power, they experienced great resistance from Kasur. In 1763 and
again in 1790, a large number of Pathans embraced martyrdom while defending their
territory. In 1794, two Pathan brothers, Nizam ud Din and Kutab ud Din expelled the Sikhs
from Kasur and re-established the Pathan rule until 1807 when at last, Kutab ud Din was
forced to give way to Ranjit Singh and retire to his territory at Mamdot, beyond the Sutlej
River. The town of Kasur was then incorporated into the dominion of Ranjit Singh. After the
Sikhs, this area was taken over by the British. In 1867, the British constituted the
Municipality of Kasur.
It remained a tehsil of Lahore District with an Extra Assistant Commissioner in-charge of the
sub division until 1st July 1976 when it was made a district. Initially, the district comprised
two sub divisions namely Kasur and Chunian. Later on in 1992, the Government of Punjab
created a third sub division called Pattoki. While in 2008 another town Kot Radha Kishan
was notified as fourth tehsil (sub-division) of the district.
Historically the city of Kasur was named by ancient Aryan tribe of Kambojas who migrated
from Mittani and Kussara and belonged to Ancient King Pithana of Mesopotamian Kussara.
This fact is also endorsed by renowned folk Baba Bulay Shah that all Pathans of Kasur
would become weavers very soon. The town of Khudian was built by ancient Aryan Iranian
Kambojas of Kasur who claim descent from Saman Khuda. A village Khoda nearKhudian is
also inhabited by Kambojah Clan.
The same clan Kambojas also claims to be off springs of Kumbakarna and Rama. Ancient
town of Rajowal of Kambojas is also related to Kambojas of Khemkaran. According to a
traditional belief, Kasur was founded by Prince Kusha, the son of Lord Rama, while Lahore,
called Lavapuri in ancient times, was founded by his brother Prince Lava. Kasur had been
allotted by the Mughal to Pashtuns or Afghans of Kabul and still contains a colony of
Pashtuns. However the site was occupied by a Rajput town long before the period of Muslim
rule.
According to some historians, the name Kasur is derived from Kashawar, the same way
Lahore is said to be taken from Lahawar. Kush, the son of Ram Chander or Rama, is said to
have founded Kasur like his brother Loh or Lav is said to have founded Lahore. However,
some historians opine that Kasur is a Persian word and a plural of Kasar or Qasar
(meaning palace), which the name was given during the times Kasur was a remarkable
colony of Pathans, perhaps the most remarkable on this side of Indus.
In 1867, the British constituted the Municipality of Kasur. It remained a tehsil of Lahore
District with an Extra Assistant Commissioner in-charge of the sub division until 1st July
1976 when it was made a district. Initially, the district comprised of two sub divisions namely
Kasur and Chunian. Later on in 1992, the Government of Punjab created a third sub division
called Pattoki.
However this may be, Kasur does not appear in history until far on in the Muhammad period.
The colony of Pathans was located at some time during the reign of Baber, but more
probably in 1560BC, during the reign of his grandson Akbar-e- Azam. At that time the town is
said to have numbered 3500 souls. Among the Pathans who settled here were certain
Hasanzais, whose descendants became the chiefs of the town and founded a considerable
principality, including territory on both banks of the Sutlej.
When the Sikhs rose to power, they experienced great resistance from the brave Sikhs of
Kasur, in 1763 and again in 1770. However, later, they were able to subdue the territory.
Large numbers of Pathans embraced martyrdom on these occasions. In 1794, two Pathan
brothers, Nizam ud Din and Kutab ud Din again expelled the Sikhs from Kasur and reestablished the Pathan rule, held their own against the repeated attacks of Sikhs until 1807,

when at last Kutab ud Din was forced to give way before Ranjit Singh and retire to his
territory at Mamdot beyond Sutluj. The town of Kasur was then incorporated in the dominion
of Ranjit Singh. After the Sikhs the area was taken over by British.
In 1867 the Kasur Municipality was constituted. At that time, Kasur was given the status of
Sub-division and included in Lahore Civil Division. The Raiwind-Ganda Singhwala Railway
line was laid in 1883 whereas the Kasur-Lodhran Railway line was completed in 1910,
thereby connecting the town with the rail network. During this period, Kasur served as an
important commercial as well as industrial centre of the area. After independence in 1947,
industrial and commercial activities were re-established and Kasur contributed more and
more towards the national economy. Kasur remained a Tehsil of Lahore District, during the
times of the British, and Extra Assistant Commissioner used to be the in charge of the SubDivision. In 1976, Kasur was given the status of District Headquarters and subsequently a
number of local offices were established.
Initially, the District comprised to Sub-Divisions namely Kasur&Chunian. Later on, in 1992,
the Government of Punjab created another Sub Division with it does headquarter at Pattoki.
At present Kasur consists of Three Sub-Divisions; namely Kasur, Chunian and Pattoki.
Kasur the city of Bulleh Shah, located 55 km southeast of Lahore, is one of the oldest cities
in Pakistan. It is adjacent to the Indo-Pak Border which is famous for its guard changing
ceremony.
District Kasur came into existence on July 1, 1967 after being detached from Lahore district.
Kasur is not though as old as Lahore, is a brother town of Lahore. There are different
traditions about the name of Kasur. One is that the town was founded by Kasur/ Kasu the
son of Ram chander and named after him as Kasur pur .The other tradition tells us that the
town was founded by Pathan families of Kandhar during the period of Akbar. The Pathans
constructed some small forts known as Kot. There were about twelve Kots named after the
heads of various families. These names still exist. In Arabic, Kot or fort is known as Kaser
(Qaser) and plural of Kaser is Kasur.
Kasur has a glorious past set in spiritual and cultural traditions, nurtured by Sufi Saints like
Baba Bulleh Shah, Baba Kamal Chishti, Shah Inayat Qadiri, Imam Shah Bukhari, on one
hand and by musicians, singers like Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan, Ustad Barkat Ali Khan,
UstadAmanat Ali Khan, Malka-e-Tarrannam Noor Jehan etc. on the other hand. The
important cultural events in the district are the Urs of Baba Bulleh Shah and Urs of Baba
Imam Shah Bukhari.
The total population of the district is 2375875. Total register voters are 1173524. A large
number of non-Muslim voters also reside in the District. The city of Kasur is a town of
considerable antiquity. It is situated upon the north bank of the old bed of the Beas upon the
Ferozepur Road 53 Kilometre south-east of Lahore. It is built upon the high bank which
marks the termination of the Majha, and looks down upon the lowlands of the Sutlej and
Beas.
The city of Kasur is an aggregation of fortified hamlets, called Kots, small in themselves, but
together forming a considerable town. In 1592 originally there were 12 principal residential
colonies which were built under the rule of Mogul Chapatti Genghis Khan's descendant
Jalaluddin Muhammad Akbar in promulgation with the grace extended from Moguls to
Pathans.
At present TMA Kasur is one of the three TMAs of District Kasur. There are 55 Union
Councils in the Tehsil out of which 17 fall in urban areas/CO units. The tehsil is
predominantly rural with only 17 urban Union Councils out of 55 UCs. According to District

Mustafa Abad
Raja Jang
Kot Radha Kishan

As per census-1998, the growth (1981-98) rate of Kasur was 2.72%. This growth of urban
settlements in the city of Kasur is also upsetting natural ecological process. The impact of
this rapid growth has overstressed the already deficit infrastructure including water supply
and its distribution to the consumers. With this growth rate the present population of the city
(year 2010) is 338,528.
It will rise to 397,672 in the year 2016.However the trend of growth rate is decreasing in
entire country and a reasonable assumption is that this city will grow at under mentioned

Physical Features

Generally the area of Kasur is an alluvial plain and goes morphologically it falls under
category of old Levee Remnants. Meander scrolls, ox-bows and natural levees formed by
meandering of the old river Beas are very visible over most of land surface. These levees
are considerably higher than the general surface of the old river plain. Rohi Naulah enters
the Kasur District from India.
Flora of the area has been greatly modified by human agency of the old open forests of
small trees and shrubs; there remains only a few Rakhs or portions of forest which are kept
as gazing ground for cattle etc. Amongst trees the most important are Kikar (Acacia arbica),
Shisham or Tahli (Dalbergia sissoo), Beri (Zizyphus jajaba), Toot (Morus marlaccae), Sharin
(Albizzia lebbek, Dharek (Malia azerdaracb), Phulahi (Acacia modesta), and Nim (Melia

Socioeconomic Data

Socioeconomic and other relevant information revealed from Multiple Indicator Cluster
Survey (MICS) 2007-08. One of the main objectives of Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey
(MICS) was to establish credible baseline for socio-economic status at each district level and
Tehsil Level.
Table 5 shows socioeconomic indicators and Annex 1 shows socioeconomic information of
Tehsil Kasur. No further segregated information available with the Bureau of StatisticsPlanning and Development Department Punjab. Population of Rural and Urban Ratio within
Tehsil can help to estimate for an idea of urban proportional. As per census 1998 urban
proportion is 31.7% of total Tehsil population.

Employment and Unemployment

Employment and Unemployment data is taken from census report of 1998. There is no other
authenticated data available which provides Employment and Unemployment information to
city level. Below tables presents the overall picture of the district as well as situation in rural
and urban areas of district Kasur
(a)

Unemployment

Unemployment rate is measured as ratio of looking for work and laid off in total economically
active population comprising employed, looking for work, laid off and unpaid family helpers,
generally representing in percentage. The unemployment rate in the district was 14.6%
which was mainly due to unemployment amongst male representing 14.8%. While females
unemployment rate was just 7.9%. This is because of their small proportion in their total
economically action population. The unemployment rate was slightly low in rural as
compared to urban areas representing 18.7% and 13.3% respectively. Details are given in
Table 6.
(b)

Employed population by Occupation

In 1998 of the total employed persons, 46.7% had elementary occupations followed by
skilled agricultural and fishery works representing 32.2%, service workers, shop and market
sales workers, 8.8% and craft and related trade workers representing 4.4%. In rural areas

Environmental Conditions

The Kasur area has extremes of climate; the summer season begins from 11 April and
continues till September. June is the hottest month. The mean maximum and minimum
temperatures for this month are about 40c and 27c respectively. The winter seasons lasts
from November to March. January is the coldest month. The mean maximum and minimum
temperatures for the coldest month are 20c and 6c respectively.
Towards the end of June monsoon conditions appear and during the following two and a half
months spell of rainy season alternates with intervals of sultry weather. The winter rain falls
during January, February and March ranging from 23 to 31 millimeters. The Environmental
problems are almost same like in the world i.e. rapid population, industrialization,
transportation growth and atmospheric pollution etc. Industrial and domestic activities are
contributing to a great extent in generation of the waste.
In Kasur city tanneries s waste and animal dung of carts / tongas playing on city roads are
the major causes of pollution, due to which environmental condition of Kasur is quite gloomy.
Now a days Kasur is plagued by a number serious problem such as stagnant pools of
hazardous effluent of tanneries and perennially sluggish Rehi Nallah, which carries the entire
sewage and domestic waste of the city.
Due to uncontrolled and haphazard discharge of tannery effluent about 400 acres land are at
present under water resulting in the so called stagnant pools for which the town has become
infamous during the last few years as one of the most heavily polluted town in Pakistan.
Tanneries have a long standing tradition in Kasur. Initially, tanneries in which all operations
were carried out manually and in which tree bark was used for tanning purposes had
apparently been established in the Din Garh area on the bank of Ravi River, perhaps with an
intensive to discharge tanneries effluent into it.
Subsequently tanneries started spreading over a wider area towards the south of the river
and Kot Abdul Qadir, Naiz Nagar and Younis Nagar tannery clusters gradually developed. At
present, there are about 225 tanneries in Kasur. About 9000 cubic feet hazardous waste
water is being generated per day from these tanneries. According to the data provided by
the tanneries Association din grah, Kasur, the average daily output of all tanneries in Kasur
is estimated to be over 180 tons of wet salted weight, coming out of some 8000 cattles and

buffalos, 12000-15000 sheep and goats. Sanitary conditions both within and outside
tanneries are very bad by any slandered.
Kasur Tannery Pollution Control Project: The project has been conceived with the
collaboration of UNDP and Government of Pakistan. To address the pollution problems
caused by discharge of effluent by the tanneries, the major objectives of the project are:

To evacuate stagnant pools of effluent spread over an area measuring 400


Acers
Construct effluent collection system from various clusters of tanneries
Construct central effluent treatment plant
Construction in-house chrome recovery plants
Construction solid waste disposal facilities
Construction final outfall to discharge treatment water into pandoki drain

Executing agency of this project is Kasur tanneries Waste Management Agency (KTWMA)
through Housing Urban Development& Public Health Engineering Department Government
of Punjab.
A scheme is under way to construction a drain from Kasur city to Pandoki, so that the
stagnant pools of sewage in the Rehi Nallah could be discharged into pandoki drain. Until
new 6000 Rft drain has been dug-up at the moment the digging work is stalled due to some
dispute with the local farmers from whose lands the drains passes.
Air Pollution is another major problem in Kasur. About 3000 tongas, 6000 donkey carts and
50 bull carts registered with TMA which are plying on roads with many other un-registered
animals dung of these carts / tongas are spread on roads. Dungs particles remain saturated
in the air poses great threaten to human life.

Comparative Advantages, Weaknesses and Economic Potential


1.

Existing Situation
(a)

Land Use

Location Connectivity: Kasur is located adjacent to the Ganda Singh Wala PakistanIndia border. The City is surrounded by Lahore to the North (55 km), India to the immediate
South and East, Depalpur to the Southwest and the Sheikhupura district to the Northwest. It
is well connected with Lahore and Depalpur by a network of inter-city roads and rail links
(Map 2). The Kasur district is also flanked by two rivers: the Sutlej River to the Southeast,
and the Ravi River to the Northwest.
Urban Form: The city of Kasur was developed over one thousand years ago as an
aggregation of small fortified hamlets, called Kots. The inner part of the city is very compact
and fortified on all sides, requiring narrow streets to enter, which used to serve as gate
passageways. The Outline Development Plan of 1995-2020 indicates that the total area
within the municipal limits is 5136 acres.
Urban Growth and Connectivity: While the inner part of the City is generally in ordered
and regular patterns, extensions beyond the walled city have occurred haphazardly in all
directions without proper planning. Commercial and public buildings are often found within
residential areas. Leap-frog development is also noted to be occurring towards the eastern
side of the inner city.
2.

Service Delivery
(a)

Water Supply

The water supply is currently sourced from ground water and 43 tube wells. This water
supply network covers 75% of the town and serves 70% of the total population. The
distribution system consists of 7 overhead reservoirs six of 50,000 gallon capacity and one
of 60,000 gallon capacity. The total capacity of these reservoirs is 360,000 gallons.
The Public Health Engineering Department (PHED) has developed a water supply plan
which is part of the overall Kasur Environmental improvement Project. The scope of the
THE URBAN UNIT
P & D DEPARTMRNT, PUNJAB

project includes replacing and installing pipes, 31 hydro chlorinators, and the establishment
of a water testing laboratory.
(b)

Sewerage and Drainage

The coverage of the sewerage facility is approximately 1% of the population and 3% of the
total area.2 The existing sewerage system consist of Pacca Channels constructed by the
local body and is being disposed in the Rohi Nullah.
This Nullah is an open sewer and almost the entire sewage and wastewater from the
tanneries (other than the four clusters now connected with the Common Effluent Pretreatment Plant (CEPTP)) is being discharged there. This waste is ultimately disposed in the
Pandoki Seepage Drain. PHED has been executing a sewerage upgrading and drainage
project in Kasur, which includes planned improvement of drains and a 200 acre sewage
treatment plant.

Kasur City Profile


Existing Situation

Solid Waste Management

The existing solid waste management system of Kasur comprises of onsite storage,
collection, transfer and disposal. Primary collection is performed by sanitary workers who
sweep the streets and collect solid waste from small heaps with wheel barrows. This waste
is then stored at permanent and temporary collection points. Most of the town is covered by
primary collection except for the areas extended by new habitants.
A solid waste plan has been developed by PHED, which includes the construction of a 74
acre landfill and the purchase of machinery to improve solid waste collection. The landfill site
has been proposed 8km from the City.
(d)

Transport

Most of the roads owned by TMA Kasur is in good condition and need minor repairs.
However, there are no traffic signals in any Chowk and no urban bus or van services are
available. Urban transport is largely limited to motorcycle rickshaws or auto rickshaws. With
the rapid expansion of the city, the transport infrastructure will soon become incapable of
meeting the appropriate requirements. In 2002 to 2008, the number of motor vehicles
registered grew from 25,780 to 33,614.
3.

Human Resources and Social Conditions

The socioeconomic data of Kasur indicates that it is marginally below the Punjab averages
with respect of literacy rates, yet has a noticeably lower unemployment rate (2.3% versus
6.8%) likely due to more opportunities for work in the tanneries. It also indicates that general
health conditions fair slightly better than the Punjab averages despite poorer access to
treated water and government health facilities, as well as poorer solid waste, sewerage and
drainage systems.
TMA Human Resources: All posts in of the TMA management are filled by permanent staff
apart from the Tehsil Officer for Planning over the last few months in 2010. This has had
significant impact on expenditure for public services, with no expenditures on public utilities
evident since 2009.
4.

Finance and Economics


(a)

Finance

The available financial data indicates that the revenue generated from water supply services
is satisfactory: more than 85% of the revenue collected against the operation and
management (O&M) costs for most years apart from 2006-2007 (73%). This suggests that
TMA Kasur is generating accurate water bills with a satisfactory willingness to pay by its
customers.
The utilization in the non-development (Revenue) expenditure has been reasonable except
2006-2007 which was less than 85%. However on the development side in 2006-2007 and
2008-2009 the utilization rate has been slow, and in 2009-2010 it was non-existent.
However, data from the budget books from 2005-2006 to 2008-2009 and shows that TMA
Kasur was in surplus and managed their budgets within the available financial envelope,
though not sufficient enough to undertake any mega infrastructure project related to water
supply & sanitation or other municipal services. TMA Kasur may be able to use surplus
amount by using the PPP model in some of the small to medium sized infrastructure

projects. These indications suggest a need for financial assistance to expand and coverage
for the utility sector.
(b)

Economics

The city of Kasur is a town of considerable antiquity. It has become a tourist attraction for the
daily occurring Flags lowering ceremony, and for the famous man-made forest, Changa
Manga, which is located 30 miles west of the City.
Active industries in Kasur include its raw leather production, which is exported abroad for
further manufacturing, as well as its machine and handloom manufacturing. Shoe making
industry for sale within and outside the country has flourished in last two decades and is a
major cause of economic well-being of the lower strata of the City. Other productive
industries in the district include chemical, textile, food, iron and light machinery production.
The famous paper mill, Packages Ltd. has been recently established in the vicinity of the
main city, and several sugar mills are located in Chunian and Pattoki Tehsils.
Kasur is also well known as the city of foods. Kasur is considered as main supplier for
seasonal vegetables and milk to Lahore. These include Kasuri Methi and Huldi, which have
both culinary and medicinal uses. Staple products include wheat, potato, corn and sugar
cane. Dairy farming and bamboo production are also considerable. In addition, Kasur is wellknown for its Rahu fish caught from the Sutlej River, resulting in many fish farms that sell fish
locally.
5.

Urban Planning and Future Development

Two outline development plans (1980-1995 and 1995-2020) have been developed and used
for formulating systematic and planned growth proposals.
G.

SWOT Analysis

Internal

Strengths
Good connectivity to the Lahore and Depalpur
through inter-city road and rail networks.
Good foundations for a fairly diverse range of
economic activities and industries that have
potential to be scaled up.

Weaknesses
Lack of training and development for TMA staff
and currently no in-house planning and
coordination control capacity.
Poor level of basic municipal services and
currently no development investment/
expenditure.

External

Opportunities

H.

Good potential to expand tourist base and


services industry (also from good connectivity
with proximate cities).
Low unemployment rate and relatively good
health indicators suggest fairly skilled and
healthy labor force useful for scaling up
economic activities

Threats
Poor level of planning and low level of overall
infrastructure provision will be a disincentive for
private sector inward investment and migration both will be necessary to improve its economic
comparative advantage to other small-medium
sized urban centers.

Kasur City Services Comparison with other Cities

The overall analysis of the data collected shows that Kasur is in a better position compared
to other PCIIP cities in Punjab i.e. Jhang, D.G Khan, Sheikhupura. Table 11 presents
information about the total population, services delivery coverage, economic activities,
collection against demand, O&M Cost, investment in Services, TMA staff management filled
etc. Key findings include:

Kasur City Profile


Existing Situation

Management of Liquid Waste services coverage in Kasur City has the lowest
coverage among all PCIIP cities in Punjab i.e. only 1%.There is no difference
of ultimate disposal of both the wastes (Solid Waste and Liquid Waste) which
are being disposed as untreated to nearby outlets and dumping of Solid
Waste near city areas. Kasur has been suffering from an environmental
degradation, not only to air, surface water, fertile land and groundwater, but
also a direct health hazard to the people living and working the affected areas
as a result of: 9,000 cubic meters of heavily polluted tannery waste water from
the three tannery clusters per day. About 2,500 cubic meters of the above
tannery effluent together with domestic sewage is discharged into the Rohi
Nullah. This is used for irrigation in the downstream parts of Rohi Nullah. The
remaining is discharged to the stagnant pools permanently covering an area
of 327 acres and another 311 acres during the monsoon period. The
chemically polluted water adversely affects the growth of crops, plants and
crop yields outputs from animals and their health, in addition to contributing to
social problems in the area.
Drinking water supply situation of Kasur city are almost same like in other
cities i.e. Chiniot, Okara, Sargodha, Gujrat, and far better than the cities like
Sheikhupura, Bahawalpur, jhang, Sialkot. It almost covers the population of
70%.
Presently Urban transport is becoming vital issue of Kasur City, because of its
rapid population, urbanization and industrialization growth. It requires
immediate attention to plan for present and future needs for urban transport
services. Currently urban transport services in Bahawalpur are similar as
have in other cities, like use of Motor Cycle Rickshaws, and Auto Rickshaws
as urban transport
Kasur has good economic conditions because of its geographic location and
connectivity with Provincial head quarter and other major cities by rail and
Roads. Kasur is famous for raw leather production which is sent within
country and exported for further cutting, polishing etc. Shoe making industry
for sale within and outside the country has also flourished in last two decades
and is a major cause of economic well being of lower class of area. Chemical
production is also a good business in the city. Kasur is also well-known as the
city of foods, there are so many foods industries are working with the best
quality like: Kasuri Methi, Rice, Corn, Potatoes and many other vegetable &
fruits products.
Schedule of establishment of TMA Kasur shows that TMA has 70% filled
position; this is encouraging compared to the TMA Jhang as it has only 52%
filled positions. On other side the situation is very discouraging, because three
major positions are vacant since last many months i.e. Tehsil Officer
Infrastructures & Services and Tehsil Officer Planning & Coordination and
Tehsil Officer Regulation are vacant since last several months. This clearly is
effecting on current service delivery and future requirements. at this
movement clerks and juniors are working without proper direction

Water Supply Service

The Subsoil water of the town is highly brackish and totally unfit for drinking purposes the
ground water in upper reach is polluted primarily due to the flowing of Rohi Nullah (Sukh
Bias) and the tanneries waste effluent is not treated before its disposal.
The resident of the town have been using shallow hand pumps and dug wells to meet with
their drinking water needs. The unhygienic and polluted water was adversely effected the
heath of the residents.
Presently 43 No, tube wells have been installed which are providing water the city through a
network of pipe line ranging from 3inch to 18 inch dia pipeline.
In the past, several water supply schemes have been executed in the city in three phases of
the project as under:
Phase-I was completed during 1971 which served a population of about 35,089.
Phase-II was completed in the year 1981 which served a population of 25,400
Phase-III was completed in the year 1986 and served a population of about35,735.
Another project under the name Basti Chiragh has been completed in 1994 served a
population of 44,000 persons. The total served population with piped water supply under the
said scheme is about 140,240. As such about 150,000 persons are yet to be served with
potable water supply. The capacity of tube wells is 1.5 to2 cusecs. The tube wells operate
intermittently as per usual timings of operation.
Punjab Municipal Services Improvement Project (PMSIP) also intervenes to improve water
supply of city Kasur during 2008-2010. PMSIP worked on multidimensional approach which
include physical infrastructure as well capacity building component. The work of installation
of tube well sand laying of rising main with distribution network in outsides abadies of Kasur
city. According to PHED most of old city regarding with the replacement of old pipes have
not taken up under PMSIP and the health of peoples of these localities are effecting
adversely due to unhygienic and polluted water.
Frequent analysis of water by the PHED/ TMA has confirmed absence of heavy metals
particularly chromium in the deep wells. However, due to faulty distribution system and
intermittent water supply in the city, presence of such metals in the distribution system
cannot be ruled out. However, measures are urgently required to protect the distribution
system from the heavy probability of pollution of potable water by waste water entering into
the system through leakages, faulty service connections and others.
3

The quality of drinking water supply in the city has been determined by Participatory
Development Resource Cell (PDRC) Lab. Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan during
August-2001. It is evident from the analysis that the sampled water carries higher
concentration of chromium than the permissible limit of 0.05 mg/l (WHO Drinking Water
Standards). The situation is critical for samples taken from water taps of private turbines /
hand pumps which implies that chromium along with other heavy metals travels into /
through the strata and finds its way into shallow waters. The situation is quite grave and
requires very serious considerations for making available to the consumers water from deep
well turbines which are sanitary-protected and are deep enough to eliminate the chance of
its pollution by chromium or other heavy metal. Moreover, the water distribution system and

provision of service connection require more attention to make the system water tight and
eliminate the possibility of entry of polluted water (with chromium as well) into the system
when it is not pressurized
As reported by TMA technical Staff, presently water supply is based on ground water and
tube wells which are 43 in number. The water supply network covers 75% of the town and
serves 70% of the total population. The distribution system consists of 6 overhead reservoirs
of 50,000 gallon capacity each and one having capacity of 60000 gallon. The total capacity
is 360,000 gallons. The distribution is made of a looped network which is made of different
type of materials including A.C, MS P.V.C. and GI pipes.
Presently a scheme has been executed Environmental Improvement Project Kasurwhich
include Water supply and Sanitation Infrastructure development under funding arrangements
by Housing Urban Development and Public Health Engineering Department Government of
Punjab.

Major Issues

The water shortage and increasing competition for multiple uses of


water adversely affected the quality of water
Unplanned urbanization and rapid population growth.
Planning based on resources availability rather planning based on the
local needs

Sewerage and Drainage

Existing sewerage comprises different pipe sizes of lengths, about 31,000 feet. The present
system is not functioning as required. The sewage disposal station, located near Rohi
Nullah, has deteriorated over the period. Most of the mechanical parts have been taken
away by the people, and the station of about 60 cusecs capacity is in the abandoned state
Sewerage system was initiated in 1979.
Main sewers ranging from 12diameter to 54diameter were constructed with total length of
29,474 feet. The work was completed in1984 with cost of Rs.19.8 million. Intercepting /
lateral sewers were curtailed because the existing open channels carrying the domestic
sewers were planned to be connected with the main sewers through 100 Nos. gully grating
chambers. The system was closed in 1990 due to non-payment of electric bills by the
Municipal Committee at the time.
Overflow from the 54 diameter on the main sewer was allowed to terminate into the Katcha
Rohi Nullah resulting silting up of the sewer. The system was totally stopped after a few
years. The existing sewerage system consist of Pacca Channels constructed by the local
body and is being disposed off in the Rohi Nullah. This Nullah is presently functioning as an
open sewer and almost the entire sewage and wastewater from the industries / tanneries
other than four clusters now connected with the Common Effluent Pre-treatment Plant
(CEPTP) is discharging to it for its ultimate disposal to Pandoki Seepage Drain.
This Nullah over the period has become a public health hazard / nuisance which required
attention of the people at the helm of the affairs long ago, but unfortunately was not
addressed in the past. Due to its irregular section, deposits of solids, and other obstructions,
the velocity of flow is significantly reduced and as such production of stinking smells in
addition to creating havoc during rainy season are the usual problems associated with it. As
such, improvement in the section of the Nullah by way of its lining will help reducing the
intensity of the miseries, but this is not considered the ultimate solution of the problem,
particularly when it will function as a primary channel for city sewerage.
Kasur has been suffering from an environmental degradation, not only to air, surface water,
fertile land and groundwater, but also a direct health hazard to the people living and working
the affected areas as a result of: 9,000 cubic meters of heavily polluted tannery waste water
from the three tannery clusters per day.About 2,500 cubic meters of the above tannery
effluent together with domestic sewage is discharged into the Rohi Nullah. This is used for
irrigation in the downstream parts of Rohi Nullah. The remaining is discharged to the
stagnant pools permanently covering an area of 327 acres and another 311 acres during the
monsoon period. The chemically polluted water adversely affects the growth of crops, plants
and crop yields outputs from animals and their health, in addition to contributing to social
problems in the area

PHED has been executing a sewerage up-gradation and drainage project in
Kasur. The project Comprises of two aspects. The skeleton network of
sewerage system is only in the central part of town and is abandoned since
1990. Total length of sewer is 29,474 feet. About 3,270 feet length of 27, 36
and 42 dia are completely chocked due to flood in 1989, rest of the sewer is
30% to 50% chocked and de-silting is required in order to bring it to operation.
The sewers in the old city and new area along the Ferozepur Road are planned
to carry the sewage flow on Ferozepur Road and onward to Depalpur Road up
to the new proposed disposal station. Whole of the sewage flow in the new

disposal station has been floated to enter in the recipient body (Remodeled
Rohi Nullah) under gravity. The total domestic sewage reaching up-to the
disposal has been assessed 68 cusecs. The disposal station will work only
during heavy rain during short period. It is estimated that working of machinery
will be for two months in a year.
In the old disposal bypass arrangement has been proposed to allow the
sewage flow in the nearby remodeled Rohi Nullah on gravity. Comparatively
lesser area has been proposed to be catered by the existing disposal station.
The concept of reducing the load on the existing disposal station is due to
reduced efficiency of the existing sewer and narrow streets which cannot
accommodate the bigger diameter or new supporting pipe Remodeling of Rohi
Nullah.
On the upstream side of the bridge on Ferozepur Road storm a drain of 3,180
ft. length has been designed with section of 6ft x 4.5 ft. and 7 ft. x 4.75 ft. to
drain out 428.27 acre area. The flow has been calculated using the intensity
duration curve of rainfall analysis on two years return period. The rainfall
intensity ranging from 1.59 inch/hr. to 1.479 inch/hr. according to the time of
concentration and rainfall intensity curve. Total length of the remodeled storm
channel (Rohi Nullah) from downstream of Ferozepur Road BridgeUp to the
Pandoki drain is 37,906 ft. with different section according to the catchments
area. The storm flow will discharge in the recipient body- Pandoki drain under
gravity.The skeleton network of sewerage system is only in the central part of
the town and is abandoned since 1990. Total Sewer laid from 12inch -54Inch
dia is 29474feet. 3270 feet length of 27inch, 36 inch and 42 inch dia are
completely chocked due to flood in 1989 and entering of road material in sewer.
The rest of sewer is 30-50%chocked and desilting is required in order to bring it
to operation.
The sewer in the old city and new area along the Ferozepur road are planned to
carry the sewerage flow on Ferozepur road and onward to Depalpur Road Up
to the new proposed disposal station. Whole of the sewerage flow in the new
disposal station has been floated to enter in the recipient body (Remodeled

disposal has been assessed 68 cusec
In Central Part of Kasur, lying of sewer is difficult therefore PHED included
improvement of drains in their ongoing project. On the upstream side of the
bridge on Ferozepur Road 3180Ft storm drain has been designed with Cross
section of 6 x 4.5 feet and 7x4.5 to drain out 428.27 acre area. Sewage
Treatment Plant has been planned by PHED and included in the overall project.
The area proposed for Sewage Treatment Plant is about 200 Acre

Solid Waste Management

The existing Solid Waste Management of Kasur is being managed by the TMA. Present
population of Kasur town is 404,550.4By taking generation rate of 0.5 kg/capita/day,
generated solid waste comes out to be 162 tons per day. (TMA Kasur). The existing solid
waste management system of Kasur comprises of onsite storage, collection, transfer and
disposal.
Primary collection is being performed by sanitary workers. The workers carry out sweeping
of streets and roads and collect the solid waste from small heaps with the help of wheel
barrows, brooms etc. and store at permanent and temporary collectionpoints. Most of the
town is covered by primary collection except areas that have beenextended by new
habitants.
1.

Major Issues

Onsite storage, collection, transfer and disposal


Solid Waste permanent dumping places within city at various
Shortage of Sanitation Staff
Sweepers depend on private work
Inadequate equipment
The SWM department lacks strategic direction, an under-developed
workforce and poor management systems.
Inadequate planning capacity, poor information and weak financial
management.
Existing institutional arrangements for SWM suffer from fragmentation,
lack of clear division of responsibilities, and inadequate planning,
management and enforcement capacity.
The legal and regulatory framework for SWM has shortcoming that
limits its effectiveness. The main weaknesses are fragmentation and
lack of clear allocation of duties and responsibilities

Kasur City Profile


Service Delivery Baseline Data

Urban Transport Service

Kasur is well-connected to other areas through a network of inter-city roads. The town is
linked to Lahore and Depalpur. The mixture of fast and slow moving traffic causes delays,
traffic jams, congestion, pollution and accidents. The overall condition of roads in the city is
unsatisfactory.
Most of the roads owned by TMA Kasur is in good condition and need minor repairs. Due to
non-existence of metalled / paved shoulders and footpaths, some shopkeepers have
encroached on the shoulders of the roads in busy areas.
There is no Signal on any Chowk and no urban bus or van services are available. On all
roads mostly motorcycle rickshaws or Auto Rickshaws are being used as urban transport
services. With the rapid expansion of the city, the transport infrastructure and public
transport will soon become incapable of meeting requirements unless appropriate measures
are taken soon. The rapid vehicle growth has been proved by the Government of Punjab
Statistics Existing transport system is shown in Map 6.
1.

Major Issues

Increasing traffic volumes and Unplanned urban growth


insufficient capacity to manage transport system
Poor traffic management
Government agencies have overlapping or poorly delineated
responsibilities
Governments weak capacities lead to low institutional coordination
and an inefficient institutional framework
Private sector involvement in urban transport is generally limited to the
provision of urban transport services
Limited Public Awareness
Poor enforcement of existing laws
No transport plan

Motor Vehicle registered by type and average annual growth rate of registered vehicle is
mentioned in Table 15 and Table 16 respectively.

Analysis on the Municipal Staff


(Assignment and recruitment process, including staffs responsibilities and
qualifications, performance monitoring and evaluation, compensation and
incentive structures, in light of civil service rules, including deputation and
contracting policies)

The district, tehsil and union administrations and councils are new organisations created by
the devolution process through the PLGO 2001. The PLGO gives each institution particular
roles and responsibilities. In particular, the devolution process is an attempt to bring decisionmaking closer to citizens, improve service delivery and the participation of civil society. In
essence this is a major change agenda and successful implementation will require the
employees of these bodies to adapt to this change and deliver accordingly. The quality of
service delivered by any organisation is directly dependent on the skills, experiences and
professionalism of its staff and the resources available to them.
It is important that the staff have the necessary systems, procedures and processes available
to them and that staff have ownership and responsibility in translating the priorities and
policies as lay down by the Nazim and members of the Tehsil. The Human Resource
Management concept is new in Local Government and not understood by most government
officials. There is little or no experience of human resource (HR) management, either at the
corporate level, or within the service areas, i.e. departments in TMA. The HR management at
the centre is mainly involved in the administration of the transfers, postings, and recruitment
processes. Departments do not have any specifically identified staff engaged in the HR work.
However budgets are devolved to departments in accordance with their staffing complement
and departments are then responsible for payment of salaries and benefits.
The Staffing Inheritance of the TMA in the Tehsil, the TMA TMO performs coordination
functions similar to those of the DCO at the district level. There are four TOs reporting to the
TMO; TO (R), TO (I&S), TO (F) and TO (P&C). The TMA has inherited staff from the former
urban councils, the rural district councils and also from various Provincial level departments.
In city districts, many staff has been transferred to various tehsils from the Development
Authorities that were responsible for structural planning;moreover tehsils cannot redirect
resources from deleting posts. This provides little incentive for tehsils to make savings or to
redirect resources to identified needs. Tehsils can however transfer existing staff within the
particular services to cover for staff shortages and administrative reasons.
There is a lack of training and development programmes for TMA employees. For example,
few of them have received training about the PLGO 2001. There are no formal mechanisms to
determine and analyse training needs within the Tehsil, nor any in-house training facilities.
Setting wage scales and hardship or remoteness allowances are two important features of a
pay policy. The salaries and pay scales for all grades are set nationally. Allowances are
attached to posts in line with grading. There are established rules for moving within grades
and into the next grades. There is no TMA control over basic pay scales, and very little scope
for paying over allowances. There are no other formal rewards or recognition schemes.
There are also no local schemes that are operational. It is possible, however, for a TMA to
establish incentive payments for its personnel.
The PLGO 2001 states that, In every budget a provision may be made for payment of
performance incentive bonuses as prescribed. The performance-pay provision of the PLGO
provides local government policy makers, an opportunity to exercise some limited control over
pay.
The system in operation is through the Annual Confidential Reports (ACRs). Under the system
all employees must go through the ACR process every year of their service. However the
general practice of undertaking these is not embedded within the system and it is usually done
when a subordinate is seeking transfer or promotion. This performance appraisal form

mentions job descriptions of the individual being appraised; however no formal job
descriptions exist. This raises questions about the accuracy of each ACR.
The introduction of job descriptions with clear job specifications should lead to clarity for
employees and managers about the duties each post holder has to do in fulfilling their role,
and the performance and qualifications expected from them. This is perhaps a major reason
why the ACR process does effectively improve performance and why appraisals do not feed
into training, skills requirements or in improving operational efficiency of the
service/organisation.

Financial Assessment

Introduction

Urban services and the urban environment in Punjab's intermediate cities are in poor
condition. Basic urban services (water supply, sewerage and drainage (WSS); solid waste
management (SWM); and urban transport) fail on three accounts: physical coverage is poor,
quality is inadequate, and delivery is intermittent. Infrastructure to deliver these services is
absent or deteriorating. Access to piped water ranges from 14% to 55% of urban
households, but these water supplies are intermittent (often only 3 hours per day) and
unsafe for drinking. Sewerage coverage ranges from 20% to 50%; there is no treatment.
Only about 50% of households have municipal SWM services; no sanitary landfills exist.
Poor urban planning and service delivery adversely affects peoples' quality of life, limits
investment opportunities, and hampers regional economic growth and job creation. Punjab's
urban services are inadequate due to poor institutional, governance and financial
arrangements that define municipal service delivery and financing. Services and functions
operated by municipalities5 are highly inefficient mostly because of the capacity,
management and institutional issues. Many of the municipal services provided by these
cities do not generate revenue. Revenues from user charges are insufficient to cover even
operations and maintenance (O&M) costs of service provision, because of low tariffs, high
technical and commercial losses and poor collections.
Punjab cities are constrained by, among others:

Weak local government structures and their implementation;


Absent or inefficient municipal service providers;
Inadequate infrastructure, inappropriately designed for operational
requirements;
Little focus on cost recovery and own-source revenue generation, and
No system, staffing or incentives for urban planning and management.

The Punjab Planning and Development Department with the assistance of ADB is proposing
significant support for urban planning, management and infrastructure investment for several
Punjabs intermediate cities through the proposed Punjab Cities Improvement Investment
Program. The project will assist GoPb to develop intermediate cities with clear vision and
with integrated, efficient, and sustainable systems and services. It will also support more
effective implementation and management arrangements, including stronger municipal
management, professionalized service providers, and private sector partnerships.

Financial Analysis
(a)

General

During the inception and post inception phases Sialkot, Sargodha, Gujrat and Sheikhupura
were visited to get the overall financial picture of the key service providers. In addition,
literature review of the major documents and studies by other donor agencies was
conducted. Secondary financial data (budget books, tax schedule, etc.) were collected and a
quick financial analysis conducted to supplement the overall financial assessment of the
whole project.

Under the PLGO 2001, TMAs have the functional responsibility of municipal services in these cities as well as
their entire tehsil

Financials and Economics

The main purpose is to review the financial management of the TMA and to assess the
capacity of the municipalities to finance major investments in municipal infrastructure, and, to
appropriately operate and maintain the municipal services. Financial Management of the city
is a key area which strengthens and helps efficient municipal service delivery through cost
recovery and appropriate management of O&M expenditures. Our initial assessment
suggests that in the above cities proper HRM practices are not followed. Most of the finance
managers [TO (Finance)] are not appropriately trained for efficiently managing the municipal
finances of the respective local governments. Weak link between capacity development and
professional growth, poor salary structure and lack of performance management and
insufficient human resources are other issues which are affecting the efficiency of the
finance and other service delivery offices.
We have also noticed that the implementation of planning criteria set by the government is
weak and the concept of integrated planning approach does not exist. According to the
PLGO, the local governments function in accordance with the policies of the provincial
government. However, there is no communication/ intimation about the provincial
governments strategy or policy or development direction on any specific issue.
In addition there is also the problem of capacity (lack of planning professional); lack of a
comprehensive database of municipal schemes and requirements; maps, master plans,
infrastructure development plans and network maps, etc.; lack of consultation in preparing
development plans and schemes; lack of financial resources; and, present allocation
process where instead of need-based allocations, equal amount for development schemes
to all councillors is considered to be the ideal criteria (resulting in small scattered schemes
usually of around Rs 200,000) which do not have much impact on the overall situation of the
city or the tehsil.
Due to the budgetary constraints the coverage and quality of municipal service delivery is
affected. The major source of receipts of the municipalities is the fiscal transfers from the
provincial government of their share in the provincial consolidated fund based on the PFC
Award announced by the Provincial Finance Commission.
(b)

Own Source Revenues (OSR) and User Charges for municipal


services

Urban Immovable Property Tax (UIPT): Internationally, Property Tax is considered as a


major source of municipal revenues. UIPT is collected by the Excise and Taxation
Department (E&TD) and after deducting collection charges and share of the provincial
government, a major share of UIPT comes to the municipality which has the urban place
from where this UIPT has been collected. The amount transferred from the Provincial
Government is shown by the municipality as the actual receipt. The municipality does not
have any responsibility in UIPT collection, the share of the municipality in UIPT collected is
not timely intimated by the Provincial Government, usually the share is not regularly
transferred, and, the municipality does not reconcile the figure of their UIPT share with the
provincial E&TD.
Tax on Transfer of Property (TOTP): TOTP is a major source of income for the
municipalities. TOTP is levied on almost all transactions where immovable property is
transferred. The income of TMA Kasur from TOTP was Rs.73.9 million in 2004-05, which
reduced to Rs.66.3 million in 2005-06 and further to Rs.53.8 million in 2006-7. After a surge
to Rs.81.3 million in 2007-08, it again came down to Rs.68.1 million in 2008-9. While TOTP
is directly dependent on the transfer of immovable properties in a city, an appreciable
improvement in collections can be made by efficient reconciliation with the revenue
department responsible for registering the transfers. TMAs collect TOTP themselves or can
get their share from the district government which collects the tax while registering the

property transfers. Keeping in view the rapid increase in property prices, TOTP is a very
dynamic tax and the TMAs must improve their reconciliation system with the district
governments so that the TOTP actually collected by the district governments is transferred to
the TMAs or the tax collected by the Contractor on their behalf is in line with the value of
transferred property.
Water Supply: Based on the data reflected in the budget books we have analysed that
except 2007-2008 the collection against the demand raised been more than 85% and in year
2008-2009 the collection was recorded as 144% against the demand raised. This
establishes the fact that perhaps they have collected the arrears of the previous years, which
is a healthy sign. Figure 4 gives us the snapshot of the collection level against the total
demand raised (water rates).
By looking at the trends below the financial data suggests that the revenue generated from
the water is satisfactory as except 2006-2007 which was 73% in the remaining years the
revenue collected against the O&M was more than 85%. This further suggests that TMA
Kasur is generating the accurate water bills (demand) because under Figure 4 the TMA has
reasonably covered the O&M expenditure had they generated the right demand. It is
important to note that Figure 5 does not include the detail of repair and maintenance
expenditure because the detail of the Repair & Maintenance cost was not provided as this is
met from the development expenditure. Similarly, the correct electricity expenditure for
operating the WSS is not reflected in these figures as only the bills paid are taken into
account while the municipality does not clear the bills regularly.

Monthly or annual user charges are not based on some criteria such as cost recovery of a
certain percentage of cost of service provision and these have not been revised since long.
There is a need to provide some tariff guidelines as well as to provide training to the staff for
preparing tariff sufficient for cost recovery.
Presently in most of the municipalities the quality of services provided is low, and, the user
charges are inadequate to meet even the salary expenses. These user charges lack any
clear rationale. There is no concept of (i) calculating cost of service provision, (ii) calculating
unit costs, (iii) cost recovery, and (iv) revising user charges/ tariff that were fixed years ago.
In many TMAs, the budgeted and actual revenue and expenditure on service delivery are not
arranged in a way that may facilitate costing, e.g. in Kasurs budgets, the establishment cost
of employees providing Water Supply and operating disposal pumps appears under the
TO(I&S) whereas the operating expenditure for providing these services appear under the
Chief Officers Unit.

Budget surplus and Development Projects

According to PLGO 2001, local governments are not allowed to approve deficit budget.
However, the general practice in many local governments is that they prepare a surplus
budget by creating an accounting entry based on the assumption that the provincial
government may provide additional funds. It may be pointed out that the share of different
municipalities is spelled out in the PFC Award and so the municipalities should know exactly
what they can expect in the subsequent year for which the annual budget is being prepared.
The financial data (budgets) of TMA Kasur from 2005-2006 to 2008-2009 were examined
and it was observed that TMA Kasur was in surplus and managed its budgets within the
available financial envelope. The utilization has also been reasonable except 2006-2007 and
since 2007-2008 the utilization has picked up. The situation is explained in Figure 6 below. It
is important to note that we are not analysing the actual expenditure data and our analysis is
based on budget books.

The above figure clearly illustrates that TMA Kasur always had surplus budgets but the
surplus amount would not be sufficient to undertake any major infrastructure project related
to water supply & sanitation or other municipal services. TMA Kasur may, however, be able
to use surplus amount by using the PPP model in some of the medium sized infrastructure
projects. In case proposal for slightly larger projects come to the council for approval, the
elected representatives generally have their own priorities and go for projects that they can
implement in their areas and so they seriously object on the execution of any such major
projects from TMA surplus funds.
By looking at the trends of the TMA Kasurs receipts (Figure7) the provincial government
fiscal transfers have increased since 2006-07. The OSR has increased in 2006-2007 and
then again dropped in 2007-2008 but picked up in 2008-2009. Therefore, there has an
inconsistent trend since 2005-2006.

Development Planning and Budgeting: The development budget of TMAs is to be


prepared (a) in line with the vision of the Tehsil Nazim; (b) within an overall framework
looking at capital and current expenditure for the next few years; (c) linking budgetary
amounts with performance; (d) limited to functional responsibility of the TMAs; (e) focused
on municipal requirements of the tehsil instead of simply dividing amongst the councillors
and assuring that these projects are for the benefit of a large number of beneficiaries; (f)
considering O&M requirements of the proposed schemes; and (g) providing 25% of the
development budget as non-lapse-able funds for CCB schemes.
Development planning and budgeting for TMAs suffer from a number of deficiencies such
as: (a) the budgets generally do not present any vision, mission or policy statement of the
tehsil nazim or TMA as required under the budget rules or the overall development planning
by the zila mushawarat committee; (b) despite clear functional jurisdiction under the PLGO,
a number of schemes in the devolved sectors are being undertaken at the provincial level
from the provincial PSDP; and (c) TMAs are not following any overall development plan/
strategy for investment in the provision of municipal services. The tehsil councils consider
the most appropriate or politically acceptable distribution of development funds is an equal
distribution between the UCs (naib union nazims acting as tehsil councillors) of whatever
funds are available for development, keeping discretionary quotas for the tehsil nazim, and,
allocating some amount to the members elected on special seats.
It is observed that the councillors generally do not know about the overall development plan,
if any, prepared for their TMAs. They, however, are consulted for allocation of funds for
development schemes, and in this case their entire focus is on what schemes they can get
for their constituency. The overall requirement of the city through major infrastructure
schemes is not their priority.
Schemes to be implemented from the development budget are required to be listed as a part
of the annual budget; however, most of the TMAs did not attach a list of schemes with their
budgets. Generally, only bulk allocations for development expenditure are approved by the
councils in budget sessions, and, the individual schemes are approved by the council at
some later date. With the criteria applied for allocation being equal funds for all UCs, the
municipal functions in the urban areas do not receive the amounts/ schemes necessary for
their upkeep and improvement. Usually no funds are allocated under the development
budgets for improving garbage disposal which is the prime responsibility of a municipality,
but the major portion of TMAs development budget is spent on streets and drains because
these are seen as directly benefiting the voters.
Regarding major infrastructure projects, it is important to point out that before 2001
municipalities were provided loans by the provincial government which they repaid along
with interest. As a security, municipalitys share of UIPT was available with the provincial
government and it could deduct the annual instalment of loan from this share. Before 2001,
under the PLGO 1979, the municipalities could take loans and issue municipal bonds;
however, they did not use this facility directly. The provincial government through the federal
government took loan from donors/banks and then provided these to the municipalities. The
donors/ banks were satisfied because they got sovereign guarantee and the provincial
government was comfortable because the municipalities could not come under an
unreasonable debt. Under the present circumstances, it is difficult for the TMAs to finance
mega infrastructure projects without the financial assistance from provincial/ federal
governments, donors and/or private investors.

Cash Flow

The initial financial analysis of the TMA Kasur suggests that TMA has never exceeded its
financial envelope while incurring the expenditure. Figure 8 suggests that TMA prepared its
budget based on the Net Bank Balance without CCB Balance and therefore, incurred
expenditure knowing the portion of CCB balance in the original bank balance. This is a not
very common practice while local governments preparing budget and incurring expenditure.
Since 2005-2006 the TMA has not exceeded the financial envelope but on the other hand
that also suggests that due to lack of financial management expertise TMA Kasur could not
manage its resources and which also suggests that in 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 they spend
little on improving the infrastructure services. However, they could afford to spend more.

The budget data suggests that there is a need to strengthen municipal management and
finance systems so that the limited financial resources could be efficiently used for improving
the urban services of Kasur City. The PMDFC has started the implementation of a
computerized financial management system in TMA Kasur. FMIS package has been
developed for municipalities by the Consultants of PMDFC and it has currently been
implemented in more than 30 TMAs. Under this intervention, computers, printers and
software have been provided to the municipality.
(e)

Expenditure Management

The utilization in the non-development (Revenue) expenditure has been reasonable except
2006-2007 which was less than 85%. However on the development side in years 2006-2007
and 2008-2009 the utilization rate has been slow. One of the possible reasons for the low
utilization in 2008-2009 could be the change of political government where they have
stopped the local governments to spend on the development projects.
Expenditure Planning and variances: A positive feature of most of the funding of TMAs is
its discretionary nature. Being a one line transfer from the provincial government to the
TMAs according to the PFC Award, the grant or OSR is not earmarked for any sector and
can be used to meet any of the functional responsibilities of the TMA. The only constraint on
expenditure discretion arises from the proportion of the budget consumed by salary costs,
over which the TMAs have little control (the higher the proportion of these expenditures in
the budget, the less the overall budgetary discretion for the local government). Whilst salary
costs have been increasing as a share of the budget (mainly due to increments as well as
additional increases of 15% per annum by the provincial government during the last three

Kasur City Profile


Financials and Economics

years), there is still significant room for discretion across the operational and development
budgets.
The expenditure variance may be due to the reasons that: (i) expenditure budget has to be
reduced in line with the actual receipts; (ii) recurrent budgets are prepared without any
budget allocation norms; and (iii) development expenditure is projected based on
arbitrary/unrealizable revenue projections (expected grants from provincial governments)
and they drag down the ratio of total actual expenditure compared to budgeted expenditure.
There are no budget norms for projection/ allocation of O&M expenditure for any municipal
service, and without any change in service coverage or quality of service there may be large
fluctuations in the reported expenditure.
It appears that expenditure variances are neither calculated nor analysed and these are not
used for preparing the next years budgets. There are no budget allocation norms for nonsalary and operating expenditure. Vacancies result in reducing the actual expenditure
compared to the budgeted while some vacancies (such as sanitation staff) are filled in by
casual daily workers so that service delivery is not affected.
The Budget Rules provide Format BDO-5 for outstanding liabilities and loans while BDR-4 is
a Schedule for showing arrears. Only a few TMAs complete and attach Form BDR-4 and
Form BDO-5 with their annual budget documents.
According to the Budget Rules, currently thirteen monthly statements are required to be
prepared for budget monitoring. There is no Financial Reporting Manual or instructions
regarding the financial statements that need to be prepared by the TMAs so that there can
be consistency in financial reporting. The budget monitoring formats prescribed in the
existing budget rules are quite cumbersome to fill, which is one of the reasons why they are
not filled. The other reason could be that the provincial government has not asked the TMAs
about these forms and the reason why these are not being regularly filled.
The Budget Rules provide a number of formats which can help in performance budgeting
and performance evaluation such as Policies and proposed activities of the TMA (BSF-1),
Service Delivery Performance Targets (BSF-2) and service delivery facility status (BSF-3).
There is a lack of data that may be used for measuring performance. Even basic quantitative
data6 is not available. No information is available about performance targets and service
delivery facility status as usually the TMAs do not complete prescribed budget formats which
can help in performance budgeting.
(f)

CCB Utilization

Table 26 suggests that the overall utilization of CCB has been 47% which is reasonable as
most of the local governments are unable to utilize CCB money because of the 20%
community share. That also suggests that CCBs in Kasur are not very proactive and have
contributed less as 12 million as community share which is 20% of the total project. There
has been no utilization in 2005-2006 but even in the remaining years the CCB utilization has
been less than 30% (Figure 9). We have collected the data from budget books and that data
needs further investigation at some stage.

Such as (i) persons served by a specific service (clearly showing persons served in the CO unit, other
town/villages, and other settlements in the TMA); (ii) units of electricity consumed (for electricity, tube wells,
disposal pumps, etc), (iii) functional and non-functional street lights; (iv) service delivery staff; etc.

URBAN PLANNING

Land use and Settlements Pattern

Land use means the various type of uses for which the land is utilized for different purposes.
These include uses like residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, institutional activities
etc. All the land uses have directly relationship with one another. A suitable arrangement of
these physical elements ensures convenience, health and better quality of life in a town. In
1980 and in 1995 Study conducted by Punjab Housing & Physical Planning Department for
the existing land uses reveals the character, planning pattern and growth trends of a town.
These studies are very essential before formulating proposals for systematic and planned
physical growth of a town. The Outline Development Plan of Kasur is at Map 7.
Kasur is an old settlement developed nearly one thousand year ago. The inner part of the
city was developed in a compact manner with a fortification all around for security purposes.
Entry to the city was only through gates provided in different directions. Some gates still
exist. The city is equipped with base urban requirements such as residential, commercial,
educational religious activities. Access to different parts within the walled city is by means of
narrow streets. The extension of walled city has taken place in all direction without proper
planning and development control. The residential areas are mostly regular in shape in the
central zone and leap-frog development is taking place towards the eastern side.
As Outline development plan develop in 1995-2020 the total area within the municipal limits
is 5136 acres, while the Outline development plan develop in 1980-1995 reported that
municipal limits covers 5473 acres. During preparation of both outline development plans a
details land use survey were conducted for build-up areas. The Table 35 presented area
under different types of existing lands uses in city Kasur on the basis of two land use
studies.7
CIDA has made some input in the preparation of maps. District map of Kasur and land use
maps of the 3 Tehsils namely, Choonia, Pattoki and Kaur were developed by CIDA.
Moreover, 2 UCs were randomly selected from each Tehsil for the preparation of base
maps.

Kasur City Profile


Urban Planning

According to the Planning report Kasur develop by PMDFC in 2008, the land use pattern in
Kasur is undefined and haphazard.
Entire growth of the town took place in an unplanned and fragmented manner.The main
roads that pass through the town are Shahrah e- Liaquat Ali, Shahbaz Khan road, Diwan
road, Khara road, Ferozepur road, etc. The internal road pattern in the residential area is
irregular. The streets are generally narrow, and congested. The main commercial activity is
present along the main roads. Circular road is the hub of commercial activity. Here lies a
network of roads that serve the commercial activities of the town. Lailane adda is a very
busy chowk in the centre of the town.
Adjacent to this chowk is the Boys High school and Government Girls High school. The other
educational institution i.e. Boys college is in the northern part of the town on the college
road. There is an open space, Kasur Bagh. To the north of Kasur Bagh is the Civil Hospital.
There are six grave yards in the different parts of the town. Two are in the northern part, one
in the central and one in the southern and the other two are in the south western part of the
town. Drain of the city, i.e. Rohi Nallah passes through the town from Kashmir chowk to
south western part of the town. Railway station is also in the south western part of the town.
The Kasur city is haphazardly developed. All the land uses like commercial, institutional,
public buildings etc. are mixed up in residential area. However, the central part of the town
can be regarded as mixed use zone.
Kasur city is mainly growing in northern direction. A number of small housing schemesand
residential colonies are developing along Raiwind road. Most prominent colonies are
Mushtaq colony, Yousaf town, Zubaida colony, Madina colony, Abid town, and Elitetown.
Some of the development is also taking place in southern direction.
Ahmad Khan town has been developed here. In the east of Kasur, Area development
scheme, Khais Khan town, Saeed abad colony and Defence colony have developed in
recent years. CIDA is also working in TMA Kasur. It has made some input in the preparation
of maps. District map of Kasur and land use maps of three Tehsils namely, Choonia, Pattoki
and Kasur were developed by CIDA.
Moreover, 2 UCs were randomly selected from each Tehsil for the preparation of base
maps. A household survey was conducted with 5%stratified sampling procedure. In this
survey level of satisfaction of the people for services was assessed. Consultative workshops
were also conducted by CIDA in selected UCs.
No dry port in Kasur city. Land use map of Kasur City is added in this document as Map7.The tables from Table 36 to Table 42 present information on the housing schemes, Katchi
abadis, education units and markets etc.
