| Summary, etc. |
In recognition of the growing magnitude and scale of urban poverty and the consequent need for focused policy intervention to address the gaps, the article empirically enquires into the efficacy of slum level infrastructural development as one of the crucial initiatives undertaken under the aegis of the Kolkata Urban Services for the Poor (KUSP) programme in West Bengal thereby examining its impact on urban poverty reduction. Keeping in mind the 'participatory' focus of the KUSP initiative, the article sheds light on the role performance of the community-based organisations in the slum areas which have been especially designed to ensure stakeholders' participation in the whole exercise. The results have significant implications for public administrators, development scholars and poverty analysts. - Reproduced. |
