Do we really need Smart Cities?

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.

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.

No, we really need smart cities we need smart peoples and good culture which makes a city a smart city. The Smart city is never born, it has to made by hard work and various struggles. If the government tries to make a city smart but people these cities don't know how to use those resources, then the city is no more called a smart city.

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.

Yes, we need smart cities in our country. A city is said to be smart when it creates sustainable economic development and provides a high quality of life by excelling in areas like economy, mobility, environment. Smart cities will improve GDP (Gross domestic product) of the country. GDP is the total value of everything produced by all the people & companies in the country. In August 2015, our government has started the project to develop 100 smart cities across the country. For a developing country, smart cities are very much needed to improve the lifestyle of people.

We don't need smart cities. Because there is a poor villages in a huge amount. The government has to spend the money to develop the poor villages. That villages having a problems like electricity, road problems, medical problems, proper education and also having more problems. If the people concentrate on these problems then no need about the smart cities. If we overcome these problems then every village will become a smart city automatically.

Hello every one,

My name is Geethika,

I appreciate all of my friend's views,

And I want to tell about my views that are.

I really agree that smart cities are needed but for this, we have to take the help of governments also. Because many people are living in villages with unemployment but if you are creating a smart city, it will help to reduce the unemployment.

Thanks for giving this opportunity.

Thank you.

According to me, smart city really need for a Indian government which help to growth in country. It is important part for Indian citizen that change in innovation, infrastructure control in pollution, help in control in traffic and make a rule and regulation which are prevented by Indian government for make smart city, really need for a Indian city for development in Indian but it so difficult for Indian to make a smart city because lack of resources and fund for make a smart city.

Thanku to all.

Friends, I feel that instead o focussing on smart cities we should focus more on the population explosion. It I good to have less of better quality rather than more of low quality. We are already getting so distant and less interconnected with each other and all these mobiles and sensors and glittery options whose authenticity of which also we are not sure of, taking away the majority of our focus and energy that we have stopped having a life. I am a very hard believer that its population growth which we should take care of. Long live our Great India. Long live our world. Let there be love and peace.

According to me, India needed smart cities in order to be a developed nation first it should provide employment to its people so that the GDP of our nation will increase smart cities will be beneficial for this and add to that it will create great infrastructure because of smart cities help in becoming India a developed nation.
