Do we really need Smart Cities?

According to my opinion, only smart cities can't fulfil all the need of our country so firstly, We should make our ruler area smart because Rural area's people have not the facilities to develop themselves. So I think if cities people and ruler area's people both have equal facilities to develop our country then it plays an important role to develop our country.

Thank you.

Hello friends.

As per my understanding, to have smart cities is important but not the most important aspect in the present day. In developing countries like India, the primary focus shall be on improving the conditions of smaller cities, towns and villages. Metros of India are already having a good enough lifestyle. The government shall focus on improving education and infrastructure in smaller cities and towns. They shall first be devoted to providing all basic amenities like electricity and water throughout the nation. Smart cities can thus be delayed for some time.

The answer is Yes. We need smart cities with a new mission environmental friendly policy and rainwater saving system.

A city becomes smart when there is zero traffic system. If basically, smart city project has resolved all these problems then we need smart cities.

Good evening friends.

The topic of the discussion is do we really need a smart city?

First of all, let's just introduce the topic, what is smart?

Smart implies something good but not as always.

Smart city concept is in terms is beneficial but some times more often is a little bit challenging.

Proper roads. Proper education better economy, all Facilities. Go hand in hand.

But in some areas, it's only on papers, which create a situation of dilemma in people.

I think we do need smart cities because smart cities mean that pollution is less and traffic is less and accidents are less and crime is less. So, if want a developed India we need smart cities. Because there is no way to teach a lesson to people when they cross a redlight. When some boys tease a girl these problems can be solved by smart cities.

The motto of the "smart cities" is to make India more developed. But working only for cities does'nt Going make India a developed nation! If the base is not strong automatically the building will be weak. Now here the base is villages in India. In INDIA, 80% of the population lives in rural areas and villages, they don't even have the basic facilities like education, electricity supply, water supply, banks etc. So before jumping on things which are already developing we should more concentrate on the areas which are acutally underdeveloped.

THAT WILL MAKE INDIA SMART AND DEVELOPED!

THANK YOU.

I feel Smart city basically focuses on cities and doesn't focus on villages and rural areas where development is needed the most. Urban people can still live without a smart city but for rural people it's difficult to even survive. So, I think India needs to focus on what's the need rather than focusing on serving only one section of the society which doesn't need so much of attention.

As far as I think yeah, we need smart cities but firstly we need to make our villages smart.

As well as we know that India is still developing and to become developed we need smart cities and smart projects.

But before making smart cities we have to create new ideas and new technologies. .

We know that India is suffering from unemployment so by the new technologies it gives employment. .

Thank you.

Yeah, we need smart cities. And I strongly feel that India, in a sudden situation could grow much faster and better. I feel that people in Nation are well aware of the facts and figures. And we should always remember that "every big thing starts with a small run". So we need smart Cities for making our country more smarter and a better place to live.

Good evening.

I am glad to start a discussion of our group discussion topic from me. Do we really need smart cities? Yes, I heard that India is a developing country since primary school.

So, it is a good step toward a developed country.

Because of smart cities proper planning of zones like residential, industrial so people will live without polluted and silent area. Proper utilization of water and good sewage management.
