Hello everyone,

Today we all are leave in 21st century so we really need smart cities. Because in smart cities we all gets good education and many opportunities. Our prime minister start the digital India program. To make our country smart, In smart cities, all people (urban as well as villages) learn about new technology.

We agree that today we have no much resources for providing good education in village. But when we take one step then we reach the destination.

Hi, my name is Sonali. In my point of view we really need smart cities because we all know that India is a developing country not developed. Do you think why all country said India is only developing? because we are smart but we don't try if we trying best we make our India smart.

We all need a smart country because in smart cities all people get good education, our area is always clean. So for progressing in world, we need smart cities.

As we all know, many people are migrating from rural to urban areas and this number is seemingly increasing and it doesn't limit to India but also applicable to global context. So the need of the hour for cities is to get smarter to handle the upcoming issues related to large-scale urbanisation. Hence, Smart Cities Mission, urban renewal and retrofitting initiative started by Government of India.

Fareen: With the implementation of smart cities programme, Make in India initiative will also boom when the projects like DMIC, CBIC and AKIC comes into real picture which will contribute a lot to the infrastructural and economic growth of smart cities which are located nearby them.

Balu: During recent visit of Bruce Andrews to India, US Deputy Secretary of Commerce, he focused on India's need to address the barriers of doing business which have become roadblocks for extended trade between both countries. According to that trade mission, an agreement has been concluded in the presence of AP's Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu by Leocadia Zak director of US Trade and Development Agency, in regard to extending support to India's objective of developing smart cities.

We need to understand the essence of Smart and the logic can be derived from the same if we need the smart city or not. Smart city means an alert city on various social, economical and developmental of the overall area. To make our surrounding clean free from pollution various measures can be taken to make the city smart like developing green, similarly a society free from malpractices like theft and other social problem there could be a machinery which can control such activities by creating smooth law enforcement like camera installation at various location, this not only create check on unsocial activity but also helps the law machinery to work smartly by reducing the unnecessary efforts. The similar effort of developing public transport for smooth transportation and easy access and planned move, when you know you can reach your destination in 30 min and that you need to plan to make your move 2-3 hrs before thus utilising time for other work and when we say smart city means all the planning related to smoothing this as well, A proper schools, hospitals these are again one of the necessary parts of the smart city. So when we look broadly the intrinsic features of Smart city we can for sure will say yes to Smart city, then the question of its implementation becomes then important which of course need a proper social education, timely training camp, and awareness programmes so that all can contribute to the same.

Hi, guys.

In my point of you, yes smart cities are needed. Most of the indians are hard workers, if they combine their herd work with the smart ideas then they can get good results.

This will be possible by the smart cities.

Hi all.

A smart city means a well developed geographical area that can contribute to the overall development of the surrounded places and also to the nation's goals on variety of fields as economic development, cultural improvisation, hosting the universal events and all the activities that will result in the betterment of our nation. Mumbai is listed as one of the world's important metro cities. The waves from the metro cities will boost the economic development of other cities also.

Smart means to develop yourself.

We can not develop on the basis of resource like transportation buildings etc.

First, we have to be smart ourself.

Hi all, in my point of view, smart cities are really needed for a developing country, because smart cities will help in creating a lot of employment in our country. Nowadays unemployment is increasing day by day. But while constructing smart cities as my friend Ankit Verma said we really need smart people and also it should be eco-friendly. Development should happen by protecting our nature.

Hello friends, smart cities are not the solutions to develop country. No doubt it is the sign of an develop country, but according to our knowledge, smart city indicates the development of uneducated, communication, transportation, modern technology. Briefly, the smart city reflects as a common goal like to indicate echo system, environmentally friendly, to decrease the sound pollution, water pollution and air pollution. Hence smart city indicates a healthy, well developed and cultural society as we expect forever. This is also our PM'S dream.
