Do we really need Smart Cities?

Smart cities are really needed by the developing country like India because all other developed nations are smarter than us so we are in the situation to grow smarter. First of all smart city is noting but an l improved.

A city with more digital to human interface. So we should really go smart city.

Instead of investing money to form smart cities, we should rather need to develop villages and provide basic requirements for a healthy living for the people living in those villages. Developing smart cities will abridge the gap between the holistic development of India as a nation. We have to understand that our farmers from whom we get to satisfy our stomach are mostly the residents of the village and thus their development will lead to the development of village as a whole. So, we should find out ways to develop villages to form Cities rather than forming cities into smart cities.

As per my opinion, we all want smart city but this is not right time to do work on smart city. First we have to develope rural area and make village like city. Make basic need available for common man. First Make our city educated and clean and also make medical. Facility easy then automatically our city become smart city at right time. Step by step we have to improve our facility.

The reason that India really needs smart cities is that it really lags behind other developed and also developing countries in terms of infrastructure. But one more viewpoint that most of you would agree is that if our viĺages are not even with all round electric and water supply how can we develop our already developed cities further?

See, the govt needs to address both the aspects of the Indian social strata.

As increasing the level of tech of only one of them qill not do.

Smart cities should be made but villages should be atleast tended to for the time being.

Good Morning friends, I am agree with all your views.

But in my point of view, we really need smart cities, so that we can will we able to get the advantage of latest technologies and many more. As we Know the India is being a developing country, and it is also necessary to get advance. As I think the smart cities will be helpful to improve our knowledge and technology. And become beneficial for India and Indian's growth.

No doubt, smart cities will help our country a lot to proceed on the path of becoming a developed nation but setting up of smart cities is not an easy task. It requires huge investment both in terms of time as well as money. Instead, of incurring huge expenditure in establishing smart cities the focus should be on the development of backward regions. Imagine a situation where a large number of people are struggling to afford basic facilities and to find suitable jobs for them and on the other hand the country is focusing on setting up of smart cities.

In my opinion, we really need smart cities because the main aim of this is to provide housing for all. By 2050 70% people will be living in cities. It can provide good infrastructure, water and sanitation facilities, 24*7 electricity supply etc. It would provide smart solutions such as data public data and treatment of water waste. It will enhance the developmental activities of the region. India is expanding rapidly so the emergence of smart cities can provide employment for many.

Hello everyone. My name is Ketan.

Well, yesterday's caves are today's buildings. Yesterday's buildings are today's skyscrapers. And yesterday's cities are today's SMART cities. According to me, every city from time to time must be promoted and upgraded to the next level and same should be done with Indian cities. Cities should be clean, stuffed with modern amenities, facilities and technologies. It boosts the mentality of its residents. Moreover, in this tough competition era, if our cities won't be smart, then some cities of other country can OUT SMART our cities thus slowing down our national progress. What do you all say?

In my opinion, the smart city is a good idea especially for our developing country India. But before that it would be nice to use that money to create employment opportunities in rural areas, providing basic necessities for people, conducting workshops for people in rural areas to help them get aware of the opportunities available for them to grow their business. I think that this is necessary to provide equality for the growth of all areas so that the dream of creating smart city can be achieved without conflict among people.

Hello everyone.

Yes we really need smart city. As per my opinions, it is necessary to develop our city. Smart city means what? It means all people get all facilities related to their health, education, environment etc. But now it is not possible only those people who live in the urban area get all these facilities because they have money to get these facilities as per their need. But in rural areas, these all facilities are not provided because they are really poor to get these facilities so they migrate to urban areas for better life. I thought why they need to migrate in urban areas if all facilities provide them in rural areas also so they can also take advantage of it. They have also right to be a part of Smart city but only migration is not the solution there are so many solutions for that like free campaign in rural areas about latest technology how they can use it in their daily life easily, proper schools and colleges built in their areas give children proper education so they also go ahead in their life and make career. Now, India is developing country but after these changes, India will also a developed country so we really need smart cities.
