Purpose
This study aims to gauge the effect of rural–urban migration and its challenges on the urban development of Bengaluru. This study examines the driving forces behind urbanization and its impact on social, economic and environment areas. The research helps to establish the sustainable city planning, after evaluation of specific challenges of zones, and this mitigation will optimize government investment and reduce cost.
Design/methodology/approach
Bengaluru is used as a study area to examine the interaction of migration and urban development. The study covers the period between 2011 and 2019. Panel data analysis is applied to measure the effect of urban development indicators on urban migration. The authors applied the integrated urban metabolism analysis tool to quantify the urban development indicators and identified the most critical areas for migrants. Later, authors proposed mitigation measures based on alternate scenario approach.
Findings
The authors found that there is a mixed effect of urban migration on urban development across various zones in Bengaluru. Besides, the authors suggest how planned collaboration should play a significant role in urban planning and optimize city planning judiciously. Effective mitigation measures should be developed based on zone-specific core issues, and practical trainings, research, public awareness campaigns and skill up-gradation of migrants would enhance the socio-economic and environmental conditions.
Research limitations/implications
The study will support the ongoing and upcoming initiatives launched by the Government of India i.e. Awas Yojna, Atmanirbhar Bharat and Swach Bharat.
Practical implications
The structured city planning suggested in the study will help to save wastage of resources and cost and time of developers and policymakers. This will also help to upgrade the status of migrants and enhance the ambience of city around social, economic and environment fronts.
Originality/value
The first of its kind of innovative model mapped in the study area establishes a link between strategic city planning under rural–urban migration and urban development.
It would seem logical that in a perfect world, a corporation’s espoused values would match its enacted values, This match of two sets of values is also known as ‘value congruence’, a situation where the organizational values are in tune with the employees’ values. However, there are many ways by which an organization can create a tension between its espoused and practiced values. The two main reasons relate to how it conducts its business and how it treats its employees. It was observed from the Espoused Value Analysis survey that only 40 per cent of the respondents perceive the employees in their organization are aware of the vision, mission and values. The findings also suggest that when behavioural integrity is boosted, then commitment to the espoused values of the organization is enhanced. Hence, it is inferred that there is significant gap between espoused and enacted values within the sample organizations chosen for the study. Despite this lack of awareness in values, 61 per cent of the employees felt their organization does not adopt unethical means to achieve business goals. The value congruence depends on how an organization deploys its value system, practices behavioural integrity and closes the perceived gaps.
Major catalysts, e.g. deregulation, global competition, technological breakthroughs, changing customer expectations, structural changes, excess capacity, environmental concerns, less protectionism, etc., are reshaping the landscape of corporations worldwide. Assumptions about predictability, stability and clear boundaries are becoming less valid as two key actors have a clear impact on the nature of competitive space: agents with knowledge and interactions. IJIE covers new concepts of strategy and organisation as competitiveness of companies increasingly depends upon exploiting the new strategic potentials of intellect/service technologies. Contents: IJIE publishes high-quality original papers and it is double blind peer-reviewed. It presents strategies, resources, methodologies, tools, and techniques, aimed to unfold key aspects related to intellect and service technologies, relevant for research and practice. Both theoretical and empirical papers are welcome as well as qualitative and quantitative studies. Special Issues devoted to important topics within the aims and scopes of the Journal are also considered.
