Page 9 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
1-SELECTION OF VILLAGE
1.1 SCOPE OF STUDY:Locating a suitable site with the population up to 10,000 souls which has an acute water supply
and quality issues and which requires a new water treatment and supply system in order to
eradicate the water related problems.
1.2 METHODOLOGY OF THE STUDY:For the town short listing initially Internet and the government agencies located in Gandhinagar
were approached to gather the basic details of towns having water related issues. The process
of short listing goes in this manner, initially we approached GWSSB (Gujarat Water Supply and
Sewerage Board) who gave us the names of the talukas, and towns where water related
problems were identified, and then we visited WASMO (Water and Sanitation Management
Organisation) which works at village level for household supply, from here we gather the
information and water related status of the villages, and at the end we visited GUDA (Gujarat
Urban Development Authority) who gave us the village details.
1.3 LIMITATION OF STUDY:The site selection is based on the secondary data obtained from the agencies and not on the
primary data collected from the village. Also the selection has been limited to the Central
Region i.e. in a radius of 50 km as the study had to be carried out on a regular basis. We took
Gandhinagar district as our boundary for study and we shortlisted some of the towns from the
district and carried out the comparitative analysis for their selection. We kept only those towns
into our consideration which have population greater than 6000 souls, as areas having less
population than this has less feasibility for project designing.

WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
1.4 SCENARIO IN GUJARATAccording to the present scenario of Gujarat state, some areas viz. (North state borderline
areas, Rajkot & Jamnagar District, Central Region, &Panchmahal) have been identified which
have scarce water supply. Moreover the state has faced three drought years in the last decade.
Gandhinagardistrict which lies in the central region has an population growth of 12.15 percent
in the last decade and due to this water demand is increased which is generally fulfilled by bore
wells as Naramdawater is not accessible in far by rural areas, as a result of which water table is
also going down, though it increases because of 15000 check dams which were built during last
two years.1
But this claim was rejected by the study done by Columbia Water Centre (CWC) which says that
in north Gujarat where the survey was carried out in 180 sq km of cash-rich areas in
Mehsana&Gandhinagar, water tables have been falling steadily over 15- 20 years. At present it
is about 600 ft below ground level. Also the rate of decline is 9 ft/yr as per observation wells,
and 20 ft/yr as per farmer recollections. "Water levels are either approaching or already below
mean sea level, hence increases the risk of intrusion of saline water, a transition that could end
agriculture in the area. Studies state that 82% of wells have salt in their water over the last 5-15
years. Other changes in water quality include increasing temperature (reported by 52%)
fluoride (30%) and dust (30%). Most people expected the water table to continue its decline,
and on an average expect water to last for about only six years. Because of this farmers will
have to deepen their wells (30%) or migrate (30%) to some other location or restrict crop
cultivation to the rainy season only (20%). 2

1.5 SELECTION PROCESS
1.5.1 REASONS FOR SELECTING GANDHINAGAR DISTRICT
3Figu
re 1
shows that Gandhinagar district is the over exploited area. Here the population density is more.
This creates a greater water demand; hence sufficient supply system must be implemented to
eradicate the probable problems. Also since gandhinagar is developing a higher rate, so future
demands also increases for which the system is not designed for.Gandhinagar is the only city in
the country which uses maximum water which is about 330 litres/ day according to Asian
development bank report.Also the district has fluoride content up to 1.6mg/l. But as per IS
10500 (1991) guidelines, permissible limit of fluoride content in potable water is 1.5mg/l .Hence
further problem is increased.4

TDS CONTENT

figure shows that the Water quality in Gandhinagar district has TDS value between 2500-
5000.But as per IS 10500 (1991) guidelines, permissible limit of TDS in potable water is 2000
ppm. This water is supplied mainly through regional water supply system (RWSS) hence it is
clear that water quality in gandhinagar district is not up to the desired standards. Therefore
water treatment processes are required before distributing the water.

1.5.2 SELECTION OF GANDHINAGAR TALUKA
Figure 3 District map of Gujarat
Figure 1 show that Gandhinagar District comprises of four talukas, viz. (Gandhinagar,
Kalol,Dehgam& Mansa). This district witnesses average rainfall of 667 mm. The district has four
rivers to supply water viz. (Sabarmati, Khari, Vatrak, Meshvo), The Population of the district
is13, 87,478 (As per 2011 census) which is 20th highest population in the state. It has a
Population density of 660 person/ sq.km which is 4th highest in the state.6

We selected GandhinagarTaluka because of the recent statements given by the CM, stating
that Gandhinagar will be developed as a world- class city, as he dedicates various new
developments works to the public. In this he laid the foundation for a project for renovating
water supply pipelines in Gandhinagar.7

From the Chart above, according to population basis we shortlisted the towns viz.
(Adarajmoti,Kolawada,Randheja,Uwarshad,Vavol). All these towns have population greater
than 6000 souls; we kept these on the feasibility basis as towns having population less than
6000 are not feasible for designing new project on the basis of cost factor.

9Table 1 population growth by various methods
Thus, table 1 clearly indicates that there has been a tremendous increase in population of
vavol,which falsify all the projected parameters of the probable population. Hence vavol is the
most authentic town, as the scope of study increases here. The increase in population is mainly
due to new establishments (i.e. townships) that are constructed in the village area because of
being adjacent to Gandhinagar city.

Table 3 shows that capacity of ESR invavol village is only 1,00,000 litres which cannot satisfy
15000 souls (for 70 lpcd), also height of ESR does not provide adequate pressure for village
topography because it is very widespread and as a result of which sufficient pressure is not
obtained at the tail end of the village (as inquired from the village talathi).
The village has only one pump existing and due to which supply is irregular, i.e. areas are fed at
different slots.

1.7 FINAL SELECTIONBased on the above parameters and justification, Vavol is the most appropriate city as it has
greater scope of study because the town has its own importance because of being adjacent to
the capital city. As a result of which new establishment is taking place.

This Village is recently undertaken by GUDA in its jurisdiction, hence its planning and
development becomes an utmost issue for GUDA. Also half of the village area is now a part of
Gandhinagar city.

2.2 HISTORY OF VILLAGE13
During 1347 A.D. it was under the reign of MuhmmadTughlag and governed by Sheikh
Muizauddin. Then during 1411A.D. Mahmud Begda became the Sultan of Gujarat. He made
Ahmadabad his capitol city. Vavol being located near to Ahmadabad and also on the route
to Agra and Delhi, flourished along with Shertha, Randheja and Pethapur.
In 1573 A.D. Emperor Akbar conquered Gujarat and Vavol came under his rule. After
Aurangzeb passed away the old and new governors fought many battles for the rule. The
famous Battles of Adalaj were fought near Vavol. The Kolis of Pethapur fought valiantly
against the Mughals.
In 1758 A.D. the reign was shifted to SadashivRamchandra and DamajiGaekwad from
Mominkhan and the Maratha era began. After India gained freedom, a separate State of
Gujarat came was formed on 1st May 1960. A new capitol was required for the state and so
Gandhinagar city was constructed on the banks of Sabarmati near Vavol.

Figure 12 Seismic Zoning Map of Gujarat15
The latest version of seismic zoning map of India given in the earthquake resistant design code
of India [IS 1893 (Part 1) 2002] assigns four levels of seismicity for India in terms of zone factors.
According to the present zoning map, Zone 5 expects the highest level of seismicity whereas
Zone 2 is associated with the lowest level of seismicity.
It can be seen from figure 8 that Gandhinagar falls under Zone III of Seismicity. Therefore it is a
Moderate damage risk zone for earthquakes.

Chapter 3: Water Supply Profile
3-WATER SUPPLY PROFILE
3.1OVERVIEWWater is required for many purposes in the village. Mainly the water is required for
domestic purposes but there are 3 schools in the village which face the water scarcity
issue. A private school is constructing a bigger storage overhead water tank to cope up
with the demands. Moreover the DhobhiGhat area of the village requires more water.
Page 37 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
As per CPHEEO manual 70 liters of water is to be supplied to a person everyday and the
current population of Vavol is 15,000 souls. So a minimum of 10, 50,000 liters of water is
required per day. There is no issue related to the quality of water but there are
problems regarding the pressure of water and quantity of water supplied.
Type of Water Supply: Intermittent Water Supply
3.2 SOURCE OF WATERThere are two sources of water to the village:
(a)Water coming from Narmada Canal
Due to high costs and incapability of paying the cost water supplied through the Narmada Mains, this source is not being used at present.
(b)Borewell
The other source of water is borewell. There are 3 borewells in the village. The locations
of the borewells have been shown in the plan below:
Figure 17: Location of borewells
BOREWELL-1
Page 38 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
The major one is located near the lake. It is this borewell through which the whole
village (except for Dhobi-Ghaat and Kubernagar ) is supplied water. The depth of this
borewell is 350 feet.
Figure 18: Borewell 1 located near Gram Panchayat
BOREWELL-2
The second one is nearDhobhiGhat i.e. on the north eastern side of the village. Here, the
water is supplied throughout the hours of supply especially for the purpose of cleaning
clothes. The depth of this borewell is 400 ft.
Figure 19: Borewell 2 located near Dhobi Ghat
BOREWELL-3
Page 39 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
The third is located at Kubernagar which is at the farthest north eastern end of the
village. As this region developed later than the remaining areas of the village, a special
borewell for the region was drilled. The depth of this borewell is 350ft
Figure 20: Borewell 3 located at Kubernagar
3.3 STORAGE OF WATERAt present there is one Underground Sump and there are 2 ESRs (Elevated Storage Reservoirs) at the village. All three of these are located near the borewell-1. The Capacities of the reservoirs are:
ESR-1: 50,000 litres
ESR-2:1, 40,000litre
Underground Sump: 2, 40,000litre
ESR-1 is not in use as it is very old (older than 25 years) and has the connection to an underground sump to which the water used to be supplied from the Narmada Mains.
Therefore, the Sump and ESR-1 are NOT IN USE right now.
The water from Borewell-1 is pumped to the ESR-2 and is supplied to the village from there. Hence, there is no underground storage reservoir right now. This is a point to be worried about as in case of sudden failure of the borewell or cut off of electricity supply there is no water stored.
Page 40 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
3.4 TREATMENT OF WATER
The water obtained at Vavol is free from fluorides and TDS, so no treatment is required
for that but normal disinfection with chlorine is done. First chlorine in powder form was
used but now it is used in liquid form. A chlorine release machine is fitted at mouth of
the pipe carrying water to the ESR. It releases the chlorine in appropriate amounts as
the water is pumped in the ESR. 1 liter of chlorine is consumed daily. No health issues
have occurred in the village due to quality of water. No RO or any other systems are
used to purify drinking water.
3.5 DISTRIBUTION The water is transmitted through a pipe network which is 25 years old. Cement pipes of
dia. 6inches for the mains and the cement pipes of dia. 4 inches for the distribution lines
are used.
In the passage of time the ground level has risen due to filling up of areas and so the
pipes are approximately 10 feet below the ground. Thus maintenance and repair
becomes very difficult.

3.7 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
3.7.1EMPLOYED PEOPLE:GramPanchayathas employed 2 operators to operate the
whole system. One operates the borewell 1 and 2and his salary is Rs 3000/ month while
the other operates the borewell 3 located at Kubernagar and his salary is Rs 1500/
month.
3.7.2MAINTENANCE CHARGES:A motor break down costs from Rs. 25,000 – 30,000 and
it generally occurs twice in a year. Apart from this the ESR is cleaned twice a year costing
aboutRs.5000 each time. Apart from this pipes fail, so they are repaired or replaced.

3.8 FINANCES
The total income of Gram PanchayatisRs 53,15,270/ year while its expenditure is Rs
31,34,970/ year so the PanchayatearnsRs 21,80,300/ year approximately.The Gram
PanchayatspentRs 2.99.251 / year which is 9% of the total expenditure. It also collects a
water tax of 90rs per household and so in total generates an income of 1,26,330Rs /
year which is 2% of the total income.
Chart 2: Water Supply Income vsExpanditure
3.9 OTHER ISSUES:The level of the village has increased due to filling up of lands. This has led to the
lowering of distribution pipes from the surface.
There are no issues related to the quality of water but relating to quantity and pressure
of the water supplied.

4 HOUSEHOLD SURVEY
4.1.1INTRODUCTION
4.1.1.1 WHAT IS A HOUSEHOLD SURVEYHousehold survey is a survey carried out for collection of detailed and varied socio- demographic data pertaining to conditions under which people live, their well-being, activities in which they engage and various factors which influence the same. Household survey provides a cheaper alternative to census for timely data. The accuracy of the data obtained can be made accurate and relevant for use by deciding correct sample size for surveying, its correct distribution and inclination towards carrying out the survey.
4.1.1.2 HOUSEHOLD SURVEY CARRIED OUT AT VAVOLA household survey was carried out on 21st August 2011 in the village of Vavol stretched over a
span of 6 hours from 10am to 4 pm to find out the issues relating to water supply and other
matters affecting it.
4.1.2 OBJECTIVE
The objectives of the survey are:
To identify the prevailing issues and problems in water supply
To have a generalized view of the economic and cultural background of the people
residing in the locality and to establish a pattern in water related issues with respect to
the same.
To serve as the basis for design of the new water supply system
To also cross check the authenticity of the data obtained till now
To support the hypothesis of water requirement in the village
To understand the level of public awareness, satisfaction and future expectations
The survey was carried out to find out the issues relating to water supply at the local level and
to find out the people’s view and opinion and suggestions to improve the current system and
also to check the authenticity of the data obtained about the water supply system till now.
Page 47 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
4.1.3 SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS OF SURVEYThe survey is limited to the Gaamtalonly. The population ofVavol is 15,000 souls residing in the
established 3453 households. The societies which have their own bore-wells and storage tank
and the water is not supplied by the Gram Panchayat have been also included in the study.
The Personal Interview method was used for the survey as it is the most ideal and accurate.
The target population is
1. The no. of households to assess the water quality, pressure and quantity.
2. Various income groups for assessment of economic variations region wise in the village
3. Various genders for assessment of the level of education and other specific issues
pertaining to water supply
4. Various caste to know about their water requirements in accordance to their cultural
and religious needs
5. Various age groups
4.1.4 SAMPLING SIZE:The sampling can be done through various statistical methods. The sample size also depends
upon the population, type of study, accuracy required for the study etc. The population of
Vavol is currently 15,000 souls and there are 3453 households. The sample size is taken 2% of
the number of households.
4.1.5 DISTRIBUTION OF THE SAMPLE:
The samples are taken from different parts of the village, from various income groups, religion
and gender. We have divided the village into different sections depending upon the time of
distribution of the water. Also the samples are taken depending upon the density of population
and so as Kubernagar has the highest population density it also has the highest no. of samples.
The samples from taken from the Patel vas and Vaghari vas indicate the whole central eastern
portion of the village.

4. 2 ANALYSIS
The analysis of the information collected is done under four categories:
1. Demographic Analysis
2. Current Supply Analysis
3. Public Satisfaction Analysis
4. Public Awareness Analysis
4.2.1 DEMOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS
4.2.1.1 LITERACY OF FEMALE HEAD OF THE FAMILYThe literacy level of the female head of the house is a very important parameter as in a small
Indian village like Vavol females predominantly carry out the chores and are involved in
housework. This affects the awareness of the female head of the family regarding the system
and the hygiene related issues at domestic level. Figure-1 shows a chart showing the
percentage of women educated corresponding to different levels of education.

WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
The chart above suggests that women of almost half of the number of houses surveyed are
completely illiterate. 17% of the female heads have attended primary school and 24 % have
attended secondary school also. About 10% of female heads are graduates. It was observed
that this 10 % of female heads were very young and were the ones belonging to a family having
a good financial background (mostly belonging to the Sheikh Vaas area where experienced
people of the village reside).
4.2.1.2 MONTHLY INCOME OF THE PEOPLE
The monthly income of the family will be an indicator of the standard of living of the people
thus, affecting factors like kind of drainage system in the house, higher level of services for
satisfaction. It also shows the capability of the people to make up for the shortcomings of the
system at personal level by installing pumping device and having a personal storage tank.

4.2.1.3 SIZE OF FAMILY
The size of the family is a function of the literacy of the of the female head of the family and of
course the mind-set of the people (which is not a measurable entity). In terms of water supply
system, the number of people in a family will affect the number of connections and their
satisfaction level.

Figure 27: Number of Members in Different Families Zone Wise
The fact that literacy level of woman of the house determines the size of family due to consciousness and awareness is very prominent here. It can be seen that illiteracy is highest in the areas of Dhobighaat, Kubernagar and Thakur Vaas. Of these, the effect on the size of family due to this can be seen in Kubernagar and Thakur Vaas.
The number of members in the families in DarbarVaas is big due to people of various generations staying together in a joint family. Apart from this, the number children are also big in the area Kubernagar.

2.1.4 NO. OF FAMILIES WITH DOMESTICATED ANIMALS
It is important to understand the trend in the village in domesticating of animals. This also depends on the cultural trend in the area and at times even the profession. For example, a person having a dairy as business will have cattle.

From figure 6 it can be concluded that of the 77 houses surveyed only 8 have domesticated animals. Therefore, 10% of the houses surveyed have animals.
Of these 8 houses, 4 are from Kubernagar, 2 are from VaaghriVaas, and 1 from DhobighaatandDarbarVaas each.
Cattle are domesticated in all the areas apart from VaaghriVaas. Here, goats are domesticated as they are cheaper to be fed and maintained and their milk can also be consumed.

4.2.2.2 TIME FOR WATER SUPPLY
The time for water supply in within a zone varied a lot. This may be due to false data given by people or other issues like poor design, varying elevation etc.
Therefore, this parameter has not been taken into consideration.
4.2.2.3 MAXIMUM WATER USAGEThe maximum water usage for the people is either for sanitation or for their daily household work like washing clothes, cleaning the house etc.
The people who visit the Dhobighaatto wash the clothes or have established flushing system have their maximum usage in sanitation.

Of the 77 houses surveyed, only 12 houses harvest rain water. Actually in this case, the usage of word “harvesting” would be a misnomer. Of the houses which do it, 3 are from Kubernagar. The financial condition of all the three is very poor and they cannot afford to construct a tank. Therefore, they have made small pits in which they collect the rain water.
4.2.2.6 IN TIMES OF NO SUPPLY OF WATER
There are very rare occasions when the water is not supplied at all. This usually happens when there is cut off of electricity or when cleaning of the ESR is to be done.

4.3 CONCLUSION:
The critical area which needs attention isKubernagar as all the conditions are adverse here (physical, demographic, design of the system there).
Vaaghri vas has no regular water supply timings, moreover it is located on the far end of the village, as a result water pressure is inadequate in this area.
All the areas have an issue of silt content in the water. Due to this they let around 2 buckets of water coming initially to flow and then use it. This is practiced in all the places leading to excessive wastage of water from an already depleting source of water.

5-STAKE HOLDER SURVEY
5.1: INTRODUCTION
5.1.1 Who is a Stakeholder? A person or group or an organisation having an interest in the system are the stakeholders of the system. In case of water supply system for a village, the stakeholders can be classified as:
1. Primary Stakeholders –They are those who engage in economic transactions and have authority over the system. (For example Panchayat, general public, Government Boards, Execution Agencies, Involved Corporate)
2. Secondary Stakeholders They are those who although they do not engage in direct economic exchange with the business are affected by or can affect its actions. (For example the general public, communities, business support groups, other institutions)
5.1.2 What is a Stakeholder Survey?
In order to upgrade/design/analyse any system or organisation, it is very important to get the feedback of the stakeholders of the system as they are important in achieving successful and realistic outcomes.
Following steps shall be taken to carry out a stakeholder’s survey:
1. Define the objective of the survey 2. Design the survey3. Identify the stakeholders4. Market the survey to encourage the participation of the stakeholders5. Carry out the survey and draw conclusions
Page 67 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
5.2: STAKEHOLDERS’ SURVEY FOR VAVOL
5.2.1 Objective of the Stakeholder Survey
The objectives of the Survey were:
1. To check the level of awareness of the stakeholders regarding the current water supply and needs
2. To identify and prioritise major issues/flaws put forward by the stakeholders3. To find solutions for the same4. To get their feedback on the results obtained from the household survey 5. To get an idea from their learning from the past actions relating to water supply in Vavol6. To understand the role and involvement of the stakeholders in bringing about the
changes suggested by them
5.2.2 Methodology
Stakeholders’ survey mainly being a survey resulting in qualitative outcomes, was carried out by discussing various things with the stakeholder. A questionnaire was prepared to make sure no issue was left unaddressed during the discussion.
Structure and main issues covered in the questionnaire:
1. General information of the stakeholder2. Their overall outlook of the village3. Problems and challenges regarding water supply system
Quality Of Water Quantity/Availability Of Water
4. Views on Operation and Maintenance practices5. Other sensitive issues like biased supply of water, negative political influence on the
system’s efficiency etc.6. Involvement and participation of the Stakeholder in improvising the system
5.2.3 IDENTIFYING THE STAKEHOLDERS
Both primary and secondary stakeholders have been covered in the survey. In the primary stakeholders, the people involved in the daily operation of the system, the immediate
Page 68 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
regulating authority and people from bodies at taluka and district level have been surveyed. Teachers and doctors have been covered under secondary stakeholders.
The teachers’ outlook would highly affect the approach of the people. The doctors were surveyed as they could highlight the issues relating to quality (affecting health) and mind-set of people.The people of the village are definitely the main stakeholders in the system and their views are covered in the household survey. As representative of the people, community and regional heads were also surveyed.

5.3: OBSERVATIONS OF THE SURVEY
5.3.1 VILLAGE AS A WHOLE
Vavol being located near the capital city of Gandhinagar, has already become an urban agglomeration. The population of the village has almost doubled in the last decade and has crossed 15,000. Demographically, a lot of changes (like shift in the occupation from farming to government jobs, income of the people etc.) Have been observed in the village and this will magnify further in the coming years. Currently, the village falls under the authority of Panchayat but looking at the pace of growth of the village it can be expected to be governed by the Gandhinagar Municipal Cooperation in coming few years. It is important to pay attention to and upgrade all the existing services in Vavolas the needs and expectations of the people are changing and increasing.
5.3.2 CURRENT WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM
Among the primary stakeholders, the people involved in the functioning of the current system were well aware of the system, its components and it’s working. Here, a technical approach and knowledge was missing among the stakeholders.
5.3.2.1 QUANTITY OF WATER
SUPPLY
According to them the hours of supply of water are sufficient in all the areas of the village. The requirements of quantity and pressure are not being satisfied at present as the distribution system is very old and is around 3 m below the current ground level of the village. As the distribution system was laid around 35 years back, it was meant to satisfy the needs of the people then which was much less. From the same mains a number of new connections have been drawn, resulting in reduction of pressure of the water.
Now, in order to solve the above problems, priority should be given to laying of a new distribution system at appropriate depth. Pump of greater capacity (60 HP) should be installed for increasing the pressure. For natural pressure obtained under the effect of gravity, a new ESR of higher capacity of greater height (20 m) should be constructed. The people should also start using the dhobi ghaat as far as possible for cleaning clothes to reduce the need of the water got from the house tap connection.
It is known that within a zone of supply, a few communities get more water and a few get very less water. This is a result of unplanned distribution of connections, poor design and biased supply of water. To encounter this problem, valves should be installed at society level.
Page 70 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
STORAGE AT USERS’ END
Even if adequate quantity of water is supplied to the people, many families which are financially challenged cannot store water as they do not have any means for storage. Water tanks should be provided to these families at a subsidized rate in order to solve the problem of quantity at user’s level also.
5.3.2.2 QUALITY OF WATER
There are no major issues regarding the quality of water here at the source level. Though there is a lot of silt content in the water coming out of the taps as the water is continuously supplied from the bore well and the silt is not allowed settle. A bigger ESR which would not require continuous inflow from the bore well could be a solution. Even the sup which is there should be used.
InKubernagar, water with very high silt content is obtained. Therefore, the usable quantity of water obtained is very less. Here, there is an urgent need to construct an ESR.
As told by the doctors surveyed, the people of Vavol are prone to having diseases and disorders like diarrhoea, kidney stones, dysentery very often. A major reason for this is that there is no special supply for drinking water. This could be solved by either setting up an RO plant in the village (aided by WASMO) and by creating awareness among the people regarding treatments to be done to water to make it drinkable.
As per the veterinary doctor, bronchitis, stomach infection and pneumonia are common disease in animals due to water consumed. The reason for this is that the animals consume water mainly from lakes where people discharge their waste water. Special provision of water for animals should be there by constructing more havadas and refilling and changing the water often.
5.3.2.3 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE ISSUES
Almost all the stakeholders believed that even the though the system itself has shortcomings, if the operation practices are improved a few problems can be encountered. More number of operators are required. The timings of the supply vary at times. There is biased supply of water as the village is dominated by the people from DarbarVaas and all the Panchayat members are also darbars. Here, the differences are very community oriented. Maintenance of the pipelines is almost impossible as they are difficult to have access to.
Page 71 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
5.3.3 OTHER PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
POLITICAL ISSUES
Under Sector Reform Yojana being run by WASMO, all the villages of Gandhinagartaluka having any problem relating to water supply would get technical and financial assistance to upgrade the system. 90 % of the required investment would be funded by the Government and the remaining 10% has to be contributed by the Panchayat and the people of the village together. The idea of getting 10 % from the people is to ensure that the consumers also have a stake in the system and they value.
Issues relating to the physical system i.e. construction of new components can be covered under this yojana. Irresponsibility, lack of dedication and lack of intention to work for the general public has been noticed on the part of the Sarpanch and the other Panchayat members. ThePanchayatmembers are rarely active in the village. Their practices are aimed at welfare of their own community. It is very important to create awareness among the people to realise the potential of their village, to know the available privileges to them so that they can themselves get benefit from them and question.
RAIN WATER HARVESTING
The village of Vavol is at a lower level than the other surrounding areas as a result of which the village gets waterlogged during monsoons. This fact could be used productively by harvesting rain water and constructing recharge wells.
WATER TREATMENT
No proper water treatment is done in the village as the water quality is satisfactory but for disinfection chlorine tablets are used, this treatment is carried out at the source only, but it is not done at regular pre defined timings as a result inefficient treatment is observed. This can be overcome by pre deciding the disinfection timings.

WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
5.4 MEETING BETWEEN WASMO OFFICIAL AND VILLAGE STAKEHOLDERS
During the stakeholder survey many administrative issues regarding the water supply system came into picture and with a view of solving these issues a meeting was organised by us between the WASMO officials and the village stakeholders.
The meeting was conducted on 19th September 2011 at 11 am in the Gram Panchayatoffice. A notice was circulated among the stakeholders by the talati to inform the people about the meeting. The following stakeholders from different parts of the village were informed:
1. Kuber Singh Gol (Sarpanch)2. Rakesh Patel (Tarpoj, Patelvas)3. Bhartiben Mahesh Nadiya (Harijanvas)4. AmajiThakor (Thakorvas)5. Shailsh Patel (Patelvas)6. VirendraPratapjiGol (Operator)7. Umarsha Mohammed Dewan (Kubernagar)8. NathjiMafatbhai Desai (Rabarivas)9. RajuBhikhabhai Dantani (Vaagharivas)10. Mohammed Rehman Sheikh (Sheikhvas)11. Devendra Singh Gol (Darbarvas)12. Ramesh ShomabhaiRaval (Ravalvas)
The meeting was held amongst Mr.Gadhvi, a WASMO representative, the talatiMr. B. U. Thakur and the stakeholders of the village. Many of the informed were absent and only a few people turned up for the meeting. Out of 12, only 6 stakeholders came which were from Thakorvas, Patelvas, Kubernagar, Rabarivas, Sheikhvas and the Sarpanch. A discussion was carried out on all the aspects of the water supply system i.e. source, storage, treatment and distribution from which the major issue was the distribution system. All the issues discussed are mentioned below:
Page 73 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
Figure 41: Meeting between the Stakeholders
5.4.1 SourceThe WASMO official studied the area of the village and recommended that a new bore well is required at the south side of the village but the stakeholders informed that the south side mainly consists of the residential societies which have a borewell of their own and plus that they do not have enough funds for the new bore at present. The WASMO official also suggested the use of Narmada water as the water quality is very good but the stakeholders complained that it was too costly for them. For a use of 2 months of Narmada water the Govt. generated a bill of Rs 3 lacs which was not at all possible for the people to pay.
5.4.2 TreatmentEven though so many cases of kidney stones are registered in the village, the stakeholders as well as the official both were satisfied with the treatment which was done. When been asked about the silt problem in Kubernagar, the stakeholders responded that this problem is because the bore is new and will solve itself as the time passes.
5.4.3 StorageBoth the officials and stakeholders agreed that 2 new ESRs, 1 at Kubernagar and the other at Dobhighat are required. This way they can separate the supply of these areas. The ESR of head 12m at Kubernagar has the first priority as there is no distribution system there as such and stations and hand pumps are provided at various points to get water. This would also solve the silt problem as it would settle down in the ESR. Also this area is at a higher level so it is not possible to supply water from the ESR1 (Gram Panchayat). Also as the village has expanded the current height of the ESR1 i.e. 12m is not enough and should be increased to 20m to obtain the required head and also to settle the silt.
Page 74 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
5.4.4 DistributionThis was the most major topic of the meeting. All the areas are facing many issues because of the improper water distribution. This is because the pipes are old, deep and small to carry the required water at adequate pressure. Moreover there is no supply network at Kubernagar and hand pumps and stations are provided at various points. Vaaghari vas also faces a lot of water shortage due to less pressure. To solve this problem the stakeholders already have prepared a new pipe network plan but the WASMO officials do not think that this network would be able to sustain the demand. Also more valves are required to regulate the supply so as everyone gets equal supply. But the Gram Panchayatdoes have enough staff to maintain the system.
5.4.5 Sector Reform Yojna and TaxesWhen been asked about the taxes, the stakeholders were persistent that all villagers pay the taxes. Also they informed us that from this year they have increased the property tax and is now equal to that of Gandhinagar. According to the Sector Reform Yojna, the Govt. will pay 90% of the expenses while the village i.e. the public has to bear the rest 10% and generate a public fund for it. Here but the issue is that the GramPanchayat is capable enough to bear these expense but they cannot pay as the people are not contributing to the public fund.

Chapter 6: Gap Analysis
Page 76 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
6- GAP ANALYSISIt helps to compare the present scenario to the future demands & to establish the gap between the two and in turn helps in designing self- sustaining systems. Gap analysis is a process of determining, documenting and plugging the gaps between present conditions and ideal situations. This can be done by benchmarking and doing other assessments. Gap analysis provides a measurement to know much investment of time, money and human resources is required to achieve the desired goal.
The basic parameters considered for the gap analysis are:
1. Quantity2. Quality3. Pressure4. Finances5. Miscellaneous
From which the gap in following can be established:
1. Source2. Storage3. Treatment4. Distribution
6.1.1 Need for New SystemThe current system was designed for the demand of 10, 17,736 litres but right now the demand is 12, 10,000 litres plus losses. So this system has failed in the year 2008 and a new system is needed.
6.1.2 Design Period for the New SystemAs per the CPHEEO manual on Water Supply and Treatment, water supply system is usually designed for a period of thirty years starting from the year when the system is functional.
The time lag between the time of designing and project completion is usually taken 2-5 years.
Design year: 2011
Assumed time lag between designing and project completion: 2 years
Year when the proposed project will be functional: 2013
Final year till when the proposed system will be adequate: 2043

WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
6.1.3 POPULATION AND WATER DEMAND
6.1.3.1 POPULATIONThe major change which will create severe future water problems is the growth in population. Usually for a village population is projected by using the following methods:
(a) Arithmetical Progression MethodIn arithmetical progression method, the average increase of population is calculated from the past records and added to the last census population to find out the population in the next decade. This method gives low value and is suitable for well settled and established communities.
(b) Geometric Progression MethodIn geometrical progression method, percentage increase in arithmetical increment is assumed to be the rate growth and the average of percentage is increased is use to find out future increment in population. This method gives much higher value and it is mainly applicable for growing town and cities having vast scope for expansion.
(c) Incremental Increase Method In incremental increase method a progressively decreasing or increasing rather than concentrate is adopted. This is a modification over the arithmetical progression method. In this method, the increment in arithmetical increase is determined from the past decades and the average of that increment is added to the average increase.
(d) Geometric Ratio Method Geometric ratio method is similar to Geometric Progression method. Geometric ration of consecutive decadal population are form an averaged out. Future population is forecast by compounding the latest population using the above geometric ratio. In another version of the method, only the latest geometrical ration is considered for forecasting future population.
For such projects usually population is projected by each above mentioned method and an average of all the four is considered.
Now, Vavol at present can be classified as a peri-urban area. The village has immense potential for growth as it lies at the periphery ofGandhinagar city which is expanding at a rapid rate. The population of Vavol has increased by 113% in the last decade (from 2001 to 2011).
ForVavol which is a village at a developing stage, population projection on the basis of population density and FSI (Floor Space Index) would give the most accurate result.
Here, the forecast has been done on the basis of population density.
Page 78 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
The forecast has been done as mentioned in the CPHEEO manual for Sewerage and Sewage Treatment. For this method, the accurate land use pattern, density of areas and zoning of the village should be known. If the above mentioned data is unavailable/ inaccurate following mentioned density maybe assumed for the village (after a period of 30 years).
Table 15: Density for given size of town
This table has been used for forecasting as the accurate land pattern etc of the village were not available. The current population of Vavol is 15,000.Therefore, as per the table above the density of Vavol can be taken to be between 150-250.Assuming the density of Vavol to be 180souls/hectare in the year 2043.
The area for residential purpose is taken to be 70% of the total area of the village. The remaining area includes gardens, temples, lakes, cemetery, mosque etc.
Therefore, area for projection = 70% of 761.3435 hectare
= 532.9404 hectare
Hence, population of Vavolin 2043 = Area available for residing × Density in souls/hectare
= 532.9404 × 180 = 95,930 souls
Therefore, the population of Vavol in the year 2043 will be 95,930 souls.
It is assumed that 65% of the increase in density of population is achieved in the first fifty years and the the remaining 35% increase in the last fifteen years. Assuming that current population density is 40 souls/hectare and that 60% of the area will be used for development, the population in the year 2028 can be assumed to be 59,850 souls.

6.1.4 WATER DEMANDThe per capita demand in the year 2013 is considered as 70 lpcd as there is no drainage system in the village but in the year 2028 and 2043 it is considered to be 135 lpcd assuming that drainage system will be installed by that time. The rise in water demand will be as given below. This demand considers the per capita demand as well as the 15% UFW (Unaccounted for Water).
Hence, the demand in 2043 will be ((135lpcd × 95,930souls)×1.15) which is 1,48,93,200 litre per day.

GAP IN THE SOURCE
Currently, there are three bore-wells in the village which are in use for 10 hours a day. The bore yield has been calculated for 12 hours of pumping as the bore well need time to recharge and water cannot be pumped out continuously (as told obtained from the Stakeholder’s Survey). The obtained values are:
Bore-well 1 (near the present sump) : 3,53,808 lpd
Bore-well 2 (Dhobighaat) :2,86,720 lpd
Bore-well 2 (Kubernagar) : 3,77,210 lpd
Now, the ultimate demand is 1, 48, 93,200lpd.

6.1.5 STORAGECurrent system has two one functional ESR of 1, 40,000 L capacity and a sump of 3,20,000 l. At present only the ESR is in use. According to CPHEEO manual, any village should have enough storage to store water equal to one day’s requirement. Hence, for the ultimate year there should be storage for 1, 48, 93,200l.The storage system is short of the requirement by 1, 47, 53,200 litres.
Therefore, there is a need for new storage system.

6.1.7 PRESSUREAs the village faces lot of pressure problems a discharge survey was carried out by us to quantify the pressure drop in all areas. From the survey we came to know that as Darbaar vas has motor connection it has very high discharge of 0.27 lps. Other far end areas such as Kubernagar has 0.11 lps discharge andtarpoj had 0.10 lps. The average discharge of the whole village is 0.12 lps.

Page 87 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
17%
83%
YESNO
Figure 47: Houses doing Rain Water Harvesting
From the above graph from Household survey (where 78 houses were surveyed), 17% of the people do store rainwater in vessels whereas 83% do not. It is also seen that the bore wells are over exploited as there yield capacity is 7,66, 264 lit from which 7,00,00 lit is pumped out every day. So the there is a great need to recharge these bore wells. So a proper rain water harvesting system is needed for the village. People should store rainwater so that the bores are less exploited.
Also that Vavol being a comparatively low lying area gets water logged very easily. Thus, a rain water harvesting system would solve both the purposes.
6.1.9 DRAINAGEPresently Vavolis 7 ft below the road level so water logging in the Gaamtal area of the village is a major issue which is faced throughout the year. At present the surface water is drained at the south lake. Moreover there are individual soak pits and septic tanks and no proper drainage system is there in the village. So drainage and rainwater disposal systems are also needed in the village. This would also increase the water demand.
6.1.10 FINANCESThe total income of the PanchayatisRs. 53, 15,270 and the expenditure Rs. 33, 25,011. So the savings are Rs. 19, 90,259. But this fund cannot be used as the Sector Reform Yojna instructs that the fund should be paid by the public fund only. This amount can be judiciously used for the operation and maintenance of the system. Also the electricity is paid by the Govt. as it still a village but with the growth in population is will soon be changed to a town and so all the rules of Nagarpalika will be implemented. So the electricity bill which is found out to be around Rs 2, 00, 000 will then have to be incurred by the Nagarpalika.

6.1.11 MISCELLANEOUSThe age for which of the system is designed for 30 years whereas here the system is 35 years old and finished its service life so a new system is required. Also there are many political issues such as the Darbars and the Patelswhich have a strong hold on the village have water supplied to their areas for a longer time whereas the Vaagharis and Dantanis, are suppressed and left without water. So a unbiased and equal distribution network is needed.

7.2 ZONING
7.2.1CURRENT ZONINGThe current zoning for supply of water in the village is community based. During the household survey it was realised that the people are dissatisfied with the current zoning as there are political issues which are also community based. Also that there are regions within a zone with varied supply issues. So, the first step taken is proposal of new zoning.
7.2.2PROPOSED ZONING
The new zoning was done considering the elevation of different areas of village from the meansealevel. Areas with highest and lower altitude were taken into consideration.
On basis of the study of elevation levels majorly two zones were decided as shown in above figure. Zone 1 has higher elevation ranging from 74 to 78 mts and zone 2 had elevations ranging from 72 – 76 mts. Areas of zone 1 have higher elevations in comparison with the areas of zone 2.Zoning was also done in order to remove the political issues prevailing in village as it was greatly affecting water supply system of village. Supplying water as per above zones will lead to equal and sufficient supply of water in all zones. Also that within a zone no division of area for supply has been done. Hours of supply for a zone are the hours when water is supplied in the whole zone.
Page 91 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
The ratio of area of Zone1 to Zone2 is taken as 0.4:0.6 (on the basis of area calculation on graph paper). Area of Zone1 is 304.56 hectare and that of Zone2 is 456.84 hectare. Similarly the population and water requirement are given below in Table-19.
Refer Annexure A for elevation spots in each zone.

7.3 SOURCE OF WATERCurrently, there are three bore-wells in the village which are in use for 10 hours a day. The village is short of the water from the source by 1,38,75,460 litre per day. Hence, we are short of source for supply. Vavol falls in region of overexploited water supply. Hence, it the idea of having new borewell was not considered. The village already has a connection for water from Narmada Canal under the SujalamSufalamYojana.
The lake water is very unreliable source of water in terms of quality and quantity. Therefore, it the source of water has been taken as the Narmada Canal water. Considering the quantity of water obtained from this, the water from the bore-wells is very less. But due to the mind-set of a few stake-holder’s, the existing bore-wells have been taken as the source of water too. After a few years when the acceptance for water from stakeholders for Narmada Canal water coming from Pethapur Waterworks treatment plant is achieved, it may be made the only source of water. Further designs have been done keeping this factor into consideration.
As it is currently, water from borewell-1 and 2 shall be used in Zone-2 and bore-well 3 shall be used in Zone-1 which includes Kubernagar, the area where water from here goes at present.
7.4 STORAGEThe water from connection from Narmada canal shall be supplied and stored in a high ground level reservoir. From this reservoir this water will be sent to a sump in Zone-2 and to an ESR for the same zone. Water from the borewell-3 will be pumped directly to ESR in zone-1 and supplied from there. The water from borewell 1 and 2 will be supplied directly to a new ESR in zone-2. The water in each zone will flow in the distribution system from the ESR of the respective zones.
The timings for supply of water from Pethapur Waterworks is 7am to 1pm and 4pm to 10 pm. The HGLR has been designed to take water from Pethapur Waterworks and to send it to sump inZone-2 and the ESR in zone-1
Assumed time for supply to the sump is the same as the inflow and to the ESR is 5 am to 10 am and 4pm to 9pm. The required capacity of HGLR is 14, 00,000 l.
For the sump in Zone-2, the time for inflow is 7am to 1pm and 4pm to 10 pm and it is supplied to the ESR from 6am to 11am and 4pm to 9pm. The capacity of required sump turns out to be 13, 90,000 l.
Page 93 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
For ESR for Zone-1, the time for inflow is 5 am to 10 am and 4pm to 9pm and outflow is 5am to 9am and 4pm to 8pm. And its required capacity is 6, 00,000 l.
For ESR of Zone-2, the time for inflow is from 6am to 11am and 4pm to 9pm and time for outflow is 6am to 10am and 4pm to 8pm. The capacity of this required ESR is 8, 95,000l.

7.5 PROPOSED DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
Figure 50: Proposed Distribution Network
Page 94 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
The total pipeline length of the new proposed design is around 8006 m. out of this 4863 m long is the sub main line length while the main line length is 3143 m, the pipe diameter for main line is 150mm while the sub main line has 110 mm diameter. The networking was done based on the existing road layout; both internal and main roads were taken into account. It shows only two sources of distribution, both having a sump and an ESR for distribution of water.
The cover for pipeline is kept 1m (as recommended in CPHEEO Manual)
Page 95 Group – 6 SBST, CEPT UNIVERSITY.
WATER SUPPLY PROJECT- VAVOL
7.5.1 PIPES FOR HGLR, SUMP TO ESRSelection of pipe diameter
Assuming pipe length = 5m (length of pipe between sump and over head tank)Hydraulic gradient, S = 1:100From Hazen William’s formula,V = 4.567 /1000 x C x D0.63 x S0.54
V – Velocity of the fluid flowing through the pipeC – Hazen Williams coefficient for PVC = 150D – Internal Diameter of the pipeS – Hydraulic Gradient
7.5.2 FOR ESR TO HOUSEHOLD
Further for distribution of water from ESR to the households, a sample for zone 1 is prepared as
Shown in ANNEXURE C using LOOP, which gives entire details for pipe lines in zone 1. The final result obtained is
Internal diameter 83.2 mm = 3853 m
Internal diameter 102.0 mm = 64 m
Internal diameter 129.7 mm = 65 m
Internal diameter 160.0 mm = 52 m
The details are shown in the layout.

7.6 OTHER COMPONENTS
7.6.1PUMP SELECTIONSelection of pressure class
Total head (H) = h1 + h2+ 10%x (h1 + h2)Where, h1 = height of tank And h2 = frictional loss = 20 + 0.7 + 2.07 = 22.77
Pump selection
HP = Q x H/75xήή = 65% efficiencyTherefore, HP = 68.95 x 22.77/ (75 x 0.65) = 30 HP
Hence the calculation above shows that 30 HP pump would be sufficient in each zone for transmitting water from HGLR to ESR 1 or from sump to ESR 2 respectively.
Apart from this following components shall be provided:
Line Valves :8 number Soft Starter Panel : 4 number
2 for every 15 years at Sump and HGLR Electric Motor with the Pump: 4 number Pumping Station: 2 no- one for each zone Chlorination Pump: 3 no- one at each borewell
Water from the Pethapur Treatment Plant is already chlorinated, so such a pump is provided at each bore-well. The life of such a pump is 15 years. Only three pumps for a period of 15 years are considered as it is assumed that bore-wells wont be in use soon.

7.7 PROPOSED DESIGN
Figure 51: Proposed Design Flowchart
It shows that water from Narmada is supplied to PethapurTreatment plant, which has a capacity of 36 MLD/ day, it is then transferred to the HGLR of 14 lakh litres, which is used by the
ESR of zone 1 having capacity of 6,00,000 litres. Water from the HGLR is then supplied to the sump of capacity 13, 90,000 litres, from where it is used by ESR having capacity of 8, 95,000 litres.

8.1 PROPOSED SYSTEM
For the new efficient water supply system, we propose that theGaamtal area should be divided into two zones. The reason behind distributing in two zones is the topographical differences between the two areas, which mean the combined area having elevation ranging from 74 to 78 m. is categorized under zone 1 while the combined area having elevation ranging from 72 to 76 m. is categorized under zone 2. Also this could reduce the present prevailing political issues regarding water supply in the village. According to the new zoning system the 761.40 hectares is divided into two zones of 304.56 hectares and 456.84 hectares respectively which are shown in Fig. 51.
8.2 BLOCK COST
8.2.1 Land for establishing systemThe system does not require any expense on land because the proposed establishment in zone 1 will be done in the same place where the existing system exists. And the new proposed establishment for zone 2 is already a government owned property (having survey number 1140) which can be availed by the water supply board. Hence investment on land is not an extra expense for the new system.
8.2.2SUMP, HGLR and ESR
8.2.2.1Construction Cost
To arrive at the block cost of sump and ESR, block cost values of various capacities are taken and plottedto generate the trend and from that the cost of the sump and ESR of the required capacity are calculated.

Note:
Here, operating cost is based on the electricity consumption by the component depending on its capacity and efficiency.
CALULATION
HP X 746 X 12 X 30/ 1000 = KWh x unit rate of electricity
The rate of electricity is increased every 5 year by escalation in price of 6%.
The chlorination pumps are established with the bore well because water from Pethapur treatment plant will not require any further treatment. Hence reducing the cost of water treatment in the village, Apart from this 3 submersible pump will be required for village, one for each bore well, which will require replacement after 15 years. Similarly, 2 electric motor, 4 soft starter panels will be replaced after 15 years.

8.5 OPERATION COST - MANPOWER
The proposed designed system would be requiring minimum of four working staff, 2 linesman and 2 security guards. One pair on each Zone ( as per CPHEEO manual).
STAFF NUMBERS PRESENT SALARY CUMULATIVE SALARY AFTER 30 YEARS
Operator 2 3000 30,51,320
Security Guard 2 1500 15,25,66029
Table 24: Salaries of Staff
The staff salaries are calculated by cumulative of Compound interest by an escalation of 2% (as informed by WASMO officials).
Therefore, from the above calculations it can be concluded that:

As per the Sector reform Yojana, 90% of the cost for establishing new sump, ESR and HGLR will be funded by WASMO. Therefore:
Serial No.
Amount Paid By Amount
1 WASMO (90% of1,32,92,000 ) 1,19,62,8002 Gram Panchayat (10% of 1,32,92,000 ) 13,29,200
Table 26: Funding
Hence, the amount to be borne by the people for this is Rs. 13, 29,200, so based on the population of 2013 when the proposed system will be functioning; an individual has to bear Rs. 74.42 for construction of fixed components.
• The total amount to be borne by the Panchayat which shall be collected in the form of water tax is Rs.20,23, 40, 665.
Now, for calculation population after every five year has been calculated as shown below:

Table 27: Populations at every 5 years
The population for the village is considered to be the same for a period of 5 years like from
2013 to 2018, 2018 to 2023, 2023 to 2028 and so on.
Now for the base year it is assumed that the property tax is Rs. 90 per year
Here, it is assumed that in every year 50% of the people pay the older value of tax and 50% pay the new increased value.

Now, this amount shall be recovered from property tax. In the year 2010, the income from property tax was Rs.28,00,000. Taking average value of property tax from this.
We get 28,00,000/(15,000/5)= Rs. 933
