Do we really need Smart Cities?

Yes, indeed we need smart cities. But the question is that how these cities can be made it's not a one day process. In fact, the famous thinker of Greece (Yunan) "Plato" clarified that smart people make the smart cities in his theory of an Ideal State. So again the big question rises here how People become smart? So there is no rocket science for people getting smarter just there need if a man just follows simple rules and regulations that will make him smarter and city automatically become smart. As we take the example of Indore Madhya Pradesh we see that with the integrated efforts of public and administration the planning came into effect resulting the district topped the list of a clean city. So main focus should we develop smart thinking situation such projects became reality.

Hi everyone,

At present, India is developing country and people are becoming more educated. Now we really need smart cities. But before thinking about smart cities think about smart people. For ex: In some states, people are fighting with each other because of religion. People should change themselves then only we need smart cities otherwise, we don't need it. Because if the government built the smart cities, but people are not smart then it is of no use this means simply wasting the money and time. In rural areas, people are more poverty than urban areas. The government Should provide more facility like building new schools and washrooms to them. There is more scarcity of water all over the country first the government Should focus on it and then it can think about smart cities.

Hello friends, I am Jyoti, yes we do need smart cities. And the answer is, look at the other countries Streets, roads, bus stands, railway station and whatever their infrastructure is, they are all neat and clean. Sometimes it seems like now only they are created. It's all because of those countries public, and strict rules regarding cleanliness. Yes, we want smart cities in our country, it attracts tourism, makes our locality a healthy place to live, increase countries image. But along with providing smart cities government should also set some strict fine on those people who throw garbage or spit on the street, there is a need to change the public thought first, it needs to tell them that our country is also our home, country should be always clean like we keep clean our home.

Friends, first we should know that smart city does not mean having luxurious things in the city, smart city means having proper transportation systems like bus stations, railway stations, airports, and good road conditions. And in city there should be proper rules and regulations which should be followed by citizens, and other basic facilities like electricity and water, these cities will work as ideal for other cities and other cities will also try to develop itself, and also in development of smart city, there will be measurable increement in employment, which will be good solution of unemployment in india, and also tourists from other countries will be attracted to these cities, which will increase economy of india, so I think it will be a solution of many problems in India.

First of all, we people need to be smart enough to make our city a SMART CITY. This can be only done by proper awareness by our government. Our India is a developing country we need such smart cities. I am asking when our INDIA will be called as a DEVELOPED nation ? Only making smart cities is not enough, we need to aware people regarding their pros. We need to minimize those illiteracy, unemployment and increase the development of villages, women empowerment and general awareness regarding their rights to make a normal citizen a smart one. Bhubaneswar is the 1st smart city, but guys many people don't even know that their own city is a smart city. So I would suggest this should not be the condition of India. Then only we will reach upto the level of fully DEVELOPED COUNTRY.

Hi everyone.

Yes, there is a need for smart cities but not now.

I understand that smart cities are required if we want to see our country to be in the list of developed nations.

But we need to understand that no structure can sustain for a longer time if the foundation is week. And then here the foundation is our villages.

We should first focus on improving the condition of villages and make them smart. A large no. Of people from villages are migrating towards the cities to get a better education and for other basic needs. And because of that cities are becoming crowded.

The Basic concept is: more the people, more no. Of vehicles, more will be the consumption of fuel and definitely, it will affect the environment.

First, we need to focus on making our villages smart.

Hi everyone!

Converting existing cities into the smart city is a good idea, but converting villages into smart cities will be our biggest mistake because whenever a city is developed it requires more industries to develop.

And it requires sacrifices from our farmers to sell their land to the government for making new government Projects. The real beauty of India is its villages, we will lose pure Oxygen to breathe we will lose our Indian cultural values too if we will turn our villages into cities and moreover we also get food to eat from villages only.

So, if government Make some improved changes in existing cities it is a good idea, but remember one thing do not play with nature, otherwise when nature will take its revenge back it will be very dangerous and horrible.

Good morning. According to my point of view, a status of country depends not only on the cities but also on the village equally. Only making of smart cities are not enough to develop a country rather development of education, health, communication etc in rural area also play a vital role. So we have to develop cities as well as village also. If cities become smart then what happen if the people are not smart enough to use the service. So we have to look after of the people who are not smart enough to use the smart facilities. As we know in our country lot of people are illiterate, we have to educate them. However making of smart cities is a first step of going to a zone of developed country. For smart cities smart people are essential that should be our primary focus.

Hi,

I think we need smart cities because smart cities provides us the latest technologies and with the latest technology we can do work with less time. With the help of smart cities, there are so many benefits for the city like clean and hygienic and fastest transportation because the government is willing to start the bullets train. What we should not forget our backbone that is the agriculture first we have to develop the villages we can provide them all latest technology equipment for developing The villages. With the help of smart city is we can compete with the foreign countries as well. With lots of latest technology, we can reduce some working time. With the help of smart cities, it is we Who will get the most benefit of it. It Simplifies our work.

Thank you!

Hie friends.

As my opinion before need of smart city, we need to some changes in rural as well as urban areas.

Firstly I want to discuss the fact that there is need of common people to be smarter towards society. Everyone creates on perception that rural areas do not become smart. It becomes if common and each individual wants to change the perception and changes the fact. Why they migrate from rular to urban they need to change the mind they also help in many possible as they can to become smart country, not village not city. If any country developing like smart cities then what happened? To those rural areas. How to growth of country increases. Yes, I agree is not easy task. But if the task is difficult then this will be more enjoyable to do this task.

Thankyou.
