Obviously, smart cities are needed for the shake of our overall development.

Smart cities mean availability of all the facilities, resources, 24*7 electricity, good infrastructure, medical etc.

This will help in growing industries business and all.

But, today I saw a post in social media that people are making the train bogy, footpaths dirty by throwing the unnecessary things like bottles, plastics etc. And the headline was like "the people need to get smart before making the city smart".

Yes, we need smart cities because it is use full for every member in our society because we can use in many ways. Cites are already developed som wart better but villages need to develop somany thinks and villiage people also should listen some words of governament. We should keep our cities clean and neat we must see our country like heart. We develop our villages in our country and we need to take somany responsibilites in our countrry.

In my opinion, smart cities can only be developed when people are smart and adopt smart ways to do their things. Smart cities mean 24*7 high-speed internet, 24*7 hospital causalities treatment, etc. Till today, people are throwing waste here and there on the ground. So, dustbin should be installed all over the city. Children should also have proper education. Smart cities means increase in employment. Our country can only develop when each person is employed in one or the other sectors of work. When each person is educated, is independent and adopts smart ways to do the work, our country will develop. Yes, we need smart cities and it is a slow process.

From my point of view, smart cities are really important for the development of a country. Hence, every person may get benefit through smart cities like employment, development of rural to urban areas, education etc. But before that a strong government with all abilities (must form a team with expertise) is essentially needed to be taken in charge for smart cities work.

Yes ofcourse we need smart cities. But as per the criteria, we are far below the expectations. Development can be done step wise it can't be achieved in a single day. Still our country has many challenges like lack of education system, poor infrastructure and many more.

We should move forward to strengthen the basic things like proper education hospitals and roads then we can only make further steps in a better way like waste management and good governance, smart solutions to energy management and many more.

I think we need a smart city as our nation is developing it can gain more scope to compete with other nation when we start developing cities state develop if state develops automatically nation if we talk about rural. Areas smart city not only mean advancement in technlogy and avaoiding rural glimpse but we can develop the method or agricultural sp that our farmer should not suffer according to me smart cities give more opportunities for employment education and other basic amenties are fulfilled, India should also stand among most developed countries.

According to me, we need that type of city where people feel confident in every expect. If people are smart then their contribution towards their city will be more and more and the city will be automatically smart. For making people smart it is the duty of our government to give them appropriate chances in every field. If people get educated they will be aware of their rights and duties and new ideas will come out which will enhance the smartness of our city.

Smart cities are those cities where people understand the smart way of living without compromising with our environment needs. Smart cities are not only to have WiFi provisions but also have good waste management. In short, Smart people can make any city smart.

Yes, what you all said is correct. In my point of view, the needs of smart cities must come from each and every one behaviour and thoughts. First, we have to reduce completely about the caste feelings in our society. We have to think about our society basically. We have to capture the unnecessary works in our society like teasing girls etc. And we have to solve that problem. So that each and every girl also thinks about our society like boys. Getting smart cities is not important to our society but getting the smartness in every citizen is important. Due to this citizens, we can convert slum areas and poor people into rich. Finally, developing the cities is not like constructing buildings, roads and all. This is nothing but decreasing the poverty completely.

In my opinion, the smart city not only full facilities.

Like smart roads, street lights etc.

But coming of the smart city we lose farming.

So, first, we think about the farmers and then think about the smart city.

Every people can be done her work with a proper manual then automatically our city can become the smart city.
