Match the following sub-categories of urban land use in Group-I with their corresponding broad land use categories in Group-II as per URDPFI Guidelines, 2015.
Show Hint
Understanding land use classifications helps in urban planning to ensure that different functions such as recreation, agriculture, and public services are appropriately located and managed.
Let’s analyze the correct matches based on the URDPFI Guidelines:
(P) Sports complex – A sports complex falls under the Recreational land use category as it is a facility for public recreation and sports activities. Hence, the correct match is P–2.
(Q) Water bodies – Water bodies like lakes, rivers, and reservoirs are typically considered Protective and undevelopable use zones because they are natural resources that should be preserved. Hence, the correct match is Q–1.
(R) Poultry and dairy farming – Poultry and dairy farming typically fall under Primary Activity, as they are involved in the production of goods through direct agricultural activities. Hence, the correct match is R–4.
(S) Police station – A police station is a Public and Semi-Public facility because it provides services to the general public, but is not a private entity. Hence, the correct match is S–5.
Conclusion: The correct matching is (A) P–2, Q–1, R–4, S–5.
