Smart cities will provide good infrastructure. With good infrastructure, there will be the provision of good transport facilities, communication, 24 hrs water supply and electricity. There will be good employment for creating a smart city people should be smart. This will be when people are educated.

Hey guys,
We all knew that India is a developing country so in order to give an extra boost to such tittle, the smart cities are very much needed. Smart city will give good infrastructure facility to the city which may induce in good transportation, good communication and even provides employment opportunities. It also grabs international business players to set up their business in our country.

Yes, we really need smart cities in India. But before that, we need smart villages. This is the dream of Mr. R. Madhavan whom we have seen as an actor till now. And I totally agree with him.
At a place where we are today, we have sufficient facilities in our cities. What we actually lack is good facilities in villages. If we talk about India as a whole then firstly we should bring all the areas of India to one level and then talk about developing them further. What is the point in making a city smart and the village (at a distance of 200km near it) near it doesn't even has a proper water and drainage facility. Is it success to make a city a complete WiFi zone and the village nearby doesn't even gets a proper internet connection in not even one house.
So these are my views, firstly bring all the regions at equal levels or at least at 70% level of the cities, then try making all of them 200% of what they are.

Yes, we really need smart cities, in order to make our India smarter. Smarter cities stand for wifi services, a very marvelous infrastructure, shopping malls, breath taking tourist spots, etc. But just think twice, where these big infrastructure will be build, because most of the places in India is slum areas. So the tact is that, we first have to make our indians smarter, richer, educated, and literate, then India will automatically become smart.
Recruiting good teachers, hard work of students, hard working engineers, doctors, education hub is the suitable things that we require the most to be smarter.
About 109 states are being choosen, in order to make them smarter, the idea of smart cities was introduced from japan in 2015, initiatives was taken by our pm narendra modi ji. So, we really need sm, art cities so that we can excel in economic growth, financial growth, and as a whole our India will become a smarter independent country.

As of now, every city should be a smart city because if someone wants to do big they want a platform to express their hidden talent so if there will be a city with digital connectivity then it would be better but before that we should take initiative to make our villages also as good so that people will get basic resources.

Hi guys, I'm really glad to express my view. Yeah, we need a smart city, because nowadays India in not well we don't know it is in whose hand. Yeah, I appreciate to get electric train they were spent more money which is good but you just think we don't have water and good education safety of women we don't have good politicians please spend so much of money to this term see we are rich in a slum area and thirsty people. Which is not fair politicians don't have a conscience. So we want to change our government then only we get the smart city.

Hello friends,
I don't think that right now we are in that phase to have smart cities in our country. We have many other major problems such as poverty, poor rural development, poor security etc. Hence instead of focusing towards these problems if we are in a hurry to make smart cities and are providing funds for the same, then it will not be much more beneficial. I don't say that smart cities are not necessary but instead of making our entire country smart, if we are making just some 100-110 cities smart and the rest cities and villages are left as they are then it will not be effective.

Hey guys,
My opinion is, we definitely need smart cities, more in number rather. Over the past two decades or so we didn't come up with more number of cities and thus resulting in investing in the already existing cities (good but) resulting in concentrating the population over there and thus environmental pollution thus booming the cities. If we see china over the last 4 decades there has been increase in the number of cities in an huge manner, which led to the development of the country in faster way, be it economic growth. The increasing movement of people from rural to urban requires more number of new cities rather more number of smart cities (where there are modern technology according to improving lifestyle). Thus creation of smart cities is a must for increase in the rate of development of the country.

In our point, need cities converted into smart cities. Because, many city people facing a lot of problems daily such as water shortage, scarcity of electricity, travelling on congestion various traffic problems. After converting a smart cities gradually reducing their problems. Sometimes Rural people living in a city for working, they need a government school and hospitality. Hence come into a smart cities following facilities will be come here. Main concern of every city people is pollution, after smart cities the government will order to using some specific vehicle less pollution. So finally pollution reduced, people enjoying to live in cities.
