| Summary: | This report discusses the study of slums
in the city of Surat and it is divided into eight sections.
Section one introduces the study and discusses general
background, overall methodology, methods and techniques of
data collection, and methods of analysis; section two
profiles the city of Surat and slums therein; section three
discusses definition and recognition of slums and situation
of tenure of land along with the physical and social
infrastructure and people's views on the same; section
four attempts to throw light on resettlement and
up-gradation of slums and section five relates with the

services in the slum, their economic condition, economic
potential and willingness to share the cost of internal
infrastructure and community dynamics including the degree

group savings, etc. |
