Hi everyone we are here to discuss the topic that do we really need smart cities? Yes, we need smart cities as India is more digitalizing and developing country.

To compete with other developed countries India needs smart cities. Also, we need to consider rural areas into account our government need to improve infrastructure and providing good facilities and also giving awareness about the smart cities to rural citizens, giving them good knowledge about the advantages of smart cities.

Thus by building smart cities, we can build a smart country ie smart India.

Well, I think no. Actually we need smart people who know how to maintain the society and its culture in a proper way.

I think if there is an increment in smart people in our society then not only cities will become smart but also the rural areas and the whole nation will automatically become smart.

Yeah, we all need smart city because in my point of view smart city means where 24*7 electricity available, good connectivity and networking and good education facilities all are present that a smart city.

I agree some problem in city mean problem is population and pollution. But in India not only thin about smart city think about creating a more job and private investment because I also think any place where jobs and company are available this place is also converted is a city. I give one example all my friend some year ago build an engineering college in my town and today time this area is more beautiful in any place in town that's because of connectivity and networking and this collage creating more jobs in a local people.

First of all, we must understand, what a smart city is and what are the things that make a city smart. A smart city have facilities like smart street lighting, smart garbage collector system, smart parking and smart roads too. Till now, we don't have proper implementation of basic facilities in most of cities and rural areas of country. So, before thinking about smart cities we must be more inclined towards fulfilling the basic necessities of the country.

I think so that "smart" is only one word to solve current problems in digital way. We can develop a normal city or village with good road, transportation facilities, Street lights, water chain, sewage treatment facility, garbage collection facilities and more. For that we can not use smart city word. This word is use for only capturing attention of all people.

Actually, we need the smart city. But the question arises is that how it would be. So, listen to a friend. Before it will be better that people should be smart first then our country get developed and facility comes in front of us then gradually our country become smart. Without the contribution of people and good thought, nothing will happen. So at first people should be smart. Thank you.

Hello friends,

Yes, we need smart cities, but we need to understand that there is an increase in the gap between skill people and non-literate one. We can used high speed internet but another side the labour worked day night to established the optical cable project. This people can't able to full field their basic needs. Of course we have to adapt new technologies. Evolution is necessary but everyone can able to be a part of this change is very important. Smart city projects are good but at least every people working on this project should get benefits from it. One person is not able to make a change but if every person help at least a person to enhance their life then we definitely able to make a change.

Thank you!

I believe we need smart cities because as we look recent trend peoples are moving from villages to cities in a mass in search of jobs and as they get the job they want to settle down in cities. If this trend continuously goes on then how much peoples one city caters because a number of villages are much more times than cities. Therefore, we need new cities.

Yes, we really need smart cities because the worlds is changing an as an Indian citizen we must have all the facilities that government provide whether water, electricity, security whatever. When people more able to cope with difficult situations when it occurs an is also the responsibility of people to help for making smart cities an not only just smart cities but also government should focus on villages I am not saying govt is doing nothing, govt creating awareness about health issues toilet in rural areas.
