Hello Friends,

I believe that Indian need smart cities. It's a very good move to make Indian people smarter. So many things became easy since we started using information technology which was taking actually time-consuming. Like now we are not in any queue whether it is an electricity bill queue or PVR cinema ticket counter queue. All the work happening today in a second. If I am not wrong every person is enjoying the welfare of it and living their life comfortably. Not only rich people common people also started living a standardised life until the time they are aware. Yes, I completely agree it's really a great and a very important change required to make India smarter as we all are still developing country. If we'll talk about the problem of India and don't adapt the new changes so I don't think that we can ever be a developed country. We need knowledge, awareness, resources to be smarter. Nowadays everyone is using smart cell pone if they thought first fight with out normal problem and settle down in our lives so they'd have been able to stand in front of other those who are regularly using these gadgets. Now a common people also enjoy the benefits of technologies. We do chats we do video calling we became closer to the people those we not even thought of meeting with them. Everyone need to be a smarter and we need smart cities.

I can give a number of examples as there are many people who can't afford to pay to learn new things but youtube became a great resource to learn whatever you want to learn and it's like free of cost. You can up skill yourself by using the technology and it's a great move.

All normal people are also able to travel in flights due to the less cost of the flights otherwise, it would have been just a dream off.

Smart cities are very much required and I believe Indian need to have more smart cities. We should help those people those who are not aware of these important things but we should never say no to learning and also to becoming smarter.

It's a need of life.

A very honourable person said that Education is money in a different country. So increase your knowledge as much you can and help others as because if you help them you are actually serving to the country.

Knowledge is money which you can spend as much as you can and increase your bank balance of Education.

Hello everyone.

So, the topic is basically about the need of smart cities. The concept of smart cities is basically derived from Japan and launched in India on 25 June 2015, which basically strives to renovate 100 smart cities (now revised to 109) in India. According to me, it is a very good initiative as it will provide a better quality of life by giving better communication technology and better transportation services. Now to cope up with the rapidly changing world we need to change ourselves by taking certain initiatives like this smart city mission. Now it depends on its implementations. However, not only government is responsible, we citizens to need to change our mindset and cooperate with them.

Hello, guys.

From my point of view, all of us wants that our city to be smart. But as we know that India is a developing country and major population of a country is illiterate. If the city is smart it is a waste for the major population. Because village people today don't know how to operate a smartphone. So as my point of view it is useless to make city smarter first.

First step to literate major population. Provide them training to operate a digital product. Govt has to take initiative to make the country developed first then make a city smarter.

#pdega India to bdega India.

#if teach Indian then India grows easily.

Hellow.

I think we really need smart cities.

There are several benefits of having smart cities such as.

1) smart cities has many no. Of companies. It will increase the employement for the yongesters.

2) In smart cities we can easily grow our business as compared to rural area and get many oppurtunities to grow.

3) if we have many smart cities, the we accelerate the economic condition of our country.

Here I want to share some intresting surveys.

If we talking about china, it has more than 150 smart cities and they made a plan to make more than 400 metro or smart cities in the upcoming years. This can increase the economic strength of a country. And also reduce the overload on main metro cities.

But in India we have only some metro or smart cities such as Delhi, mumbai, kolkata, allahabad, bengulure and some one. So, we really need smart cities to make India a super power.

Thanks to discuss.

Hello every one.

My name is amit, our topics is do we really need smart cities, It is need of 20th century.

That our cities should be smart, according to me, Smart cities means not only cleaniness on roads and good transportation facilities etc but also creating discipline among people that smart cities should be maintained like smart. But half of the India s population lives in rural areas they should be developed with thier basic needs first such as 24*7 electricity and water supply and good roods for connectivity.

Hence I conclude by saying that smart cities is need of modern india, with balance on the development of rural areas should not be neglected.

Yes, In my point of view smart cities really need for developing our country and mainly to fulfill the theme "Make In India".

But firstly we are changing the rural background as well as our educational system then only our India is placed one of the best countries in the world.

Yes, we need smart cities because we can't be at that level where we are now we need to improve because improvement is must for human development we already have metro cities which are well developed so the next step I believe should be smart cities but this is not true for small cities and villages where still we don't have basic facilities there we need to develope more before thinking about smart cities.

Well according to me, developing country like India should focus on the primary needs first. The Majority of the population lives in the villages. Most of them do not have even basic needs like roads, electricity, water supply, food and education. So rather than spending thousand of crore to make few smart city, the main target should be to improve the condition of villages, so that India develop evenly.

Secondly, our country is working on bullet trains, and the condition of the life line that is railways is getting worse day by day. Similarly rather than spending a huge amount of money to built bullet train, we should improve our railway and road system.

I would like to point on one of the most important problems we are facing is the sanitation and the waste disposal system prevailing in our country. The one basic thing that differentiates us from the countries abroad is the sanitation in our society, we can easily see the garbage dumped unto the streets, people pooping and peeing across the streets is a common sight for all of us. We talk about swatch Bharat in a very enticing way but in real contribute very less to achieve that.

Friends, first of all we should know the real meaning of smart cities, you know?

The cities which have good networking zone in its area proper transport system well developed and designed railway station, bus stops, airports, establishment of well known MNCS in that particular city, where we can we meet our requirements easily, roads are well developed, ie. Where every rules & regulations are working well, if we have such type of cities then, those cities can be treated as smart cities. We should know the benefits of smart cities -

1. It attracts the tourists from other countries this way currency from various countries is earned and this in good national income.
2. If we have smart cities then other cities also can be developed on the basis of that role model cities.
3 and it is clear to everyone that our country is suffering from unemployment, so there we can create job opportunities. So this is the things and there are many more things that need the smart cities. But there should be smart cities in every state in reasonable ratios. For smart cities, we should have smart thinking and ideas. That's all, dear friends, thanks for reading my opinion.
