Yes, we need smart cities.

But, not that smart cities which acquire the land develop the buildings, hospital, private school etc. This kind of smart will attract the urban people, other city people who will leave their city but not for rural people because they can, t afford that money.

But we need smart cities in rural areas with basic needs like water, electricity, food, proper drainage, roads, govt school infrastructure etc.

Every city of providing basic needs especially for farmers provide water, road, shelter, electricity. Etc that kind of smart city we need to develop.

In my words, smart cities are very helpful to the urban people but what about rural areas?

Firstly we should develop the rural areas as well as we should provide better employment to the rural areas.

Moreover smart cities need to the country first we should aware of cleanliness and living smarter smart cities increases our economic rate but we should take in proper way otherwise, corruption will increases.

Thank you.

Hi.

An Idea of smart cities is fabulous but I don't think the country like India requires smart cities very urgently right now because I feel that politicians are using the tag "SMART CITIES" to woo the youngsters and gain votes. Keeping that aside, I really feel that before planning for smart cities we must actually think about coming out of poverty line & corrupted system. The focus must give on developing agriculture sector on which majority Indian population is still dependent. Getting out of poverty line & corruption will eventually pave the way towards a smart city which aims at happy living of people.

Hello everyone!

According to me, yes we really need smart cities because we do not have the proper facilities of the hospital, school, police station, bus stand and many sectors which we go there in our daily routine.

It's really important to provide these facilities then we can say our city is really smart.

We need to focus on villages area because when the villages change then it will develop automatically.

Hello, guys, I am M Shruti and my point of view is that yes we need smart cities. But after reading this topic the first question that comes to our mind is what is a smart city? The Smart city is basically a fully developed area with good facilities for health, education, and transportation. The Smart city also means a developed area with well-constructed roads and well transportation along with good health, education & cleanliness. We need smart city so as to develop our country along with developing the world. The Frist thing to develop our India or to cities of India smart city, we need to educate & train people what are the advantages of a smart city. And how can people contribute in making cities of India smart city.

According to me, first of all we should focus on rural areas. We have to provide them basic facilities like 24 * 7 time power supply, water supply etc. We can tranform that villages into smart cities only if the minor problems which are faced by villagers are overcome.

Hello friends,

I think that we need smart city but this time some rural area is not providing good electricity and water supply. Then first we need good electricity, drinkable water, hospital, school and good transport facilities for our rural area. We know that in India 60% population in the village and 40% population in city but 70% developing activity in the city so this time first we need develop rural area after that we can work on smart city and one main thing education will very important role for our country development. When we will provide good education theoretically and practically in every area then automatically people will make smart then our city will also be smart.
