    CHALLENGES
    • Maintaining basic norms and standards: URDPFI guidelines are
    indicative but while implementing all of these, we might end up in space crunch.
    We need to make balance by distributing various kinds of facilities and amenities.

    • Equitable distribution: the facilities are distributed in such a way that where
    ever the house is located, we can come and avail that facility.

    • Optimizing land & resource (no waste)

    • Balance between present demand and supply:

    • Flexibility for future expansion and modification

    • Context for community and end users
