URBAN RENEWAL MISSION
INTERNSHIP 2016-17
This year, the students of SLS were luckier as they got an opportunity to directly
interact with the locals of different parts of the city to collect rst-hand feedback
as they were involved in the citizen feedback survey. They took part in the Swachh
Sarvekshan 2016-17 in which each zone was divided into further sub-groups and
was allotted different areas of each zone for the rst week of URMI to collect
feedback and ll the online Swachh Sarvekshan forms on behalf of citizens.
Students took the task responsibly and played a vital role in sensitizing the public
about the importance of cleanliness drive, the active role which the citizens can
play in the drive and helped them in downloading the Swachhta application on
their mobile phones. The Deputy Health Ofcers of AMC zones guided students in
this task. In the second week of internship, students paid a visit to the newly
constructed multi-storied Auditorium of AMC at Bodakdev where they attended
interactive lectures sessions on town-planning by Shri Mayank Raval, Assistant
Manager who briefed the students about the city structure, existing town-
planning and future roadmap of the city's town planning. He also explained the
implementation challenges of SP ring road project. Another lecture sensitized
students about the urban trafc management through construction of yover
bridges by AMC.
