Do we really need 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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

In this world, to become a developed country, it should be equipped with well educated people, advanced technologies. A smart city does not only mean it should be advanced in the above sectors but also the people of the city should get a proper, clean environment to live in. So having smart cities does not mean that developing the industries, transportation etc but also improving the envronment of the people, animals. So, I don't think there is harm in having a smart city.

Good morning to everyone.

Yes, we need smart cities because in this world there are 185 countries I think 95 countries already smart county but how. Because they change our thinking like the USA, China, Russia, England etc these county's people thinking really good they are loyal for our country and if we want smart Indian. We change s lots of think. Firstly we change our mentality after than we change our education system, some politicians, water supply and lots off think we change that's kind of problems we build our smart India and someone says that firstly we change our rural and villages. Villages And rular area allready change day-by-day smart citites is not mean tht we change traficsignales and road and education and all. There are lots off problem in India like employment if we want to make our country smart than we change our think than we definitely became our county smart and develop all so.

Thank you so much for giving this great topic. And thank our pm. Mr. Narendha Modi to stars smart cities.

Introducing a smart city in India is a great idea but India is still developing country due to the increasing poverty rate, and some cities may face lack of infrastructure and some basic issues before initiating these project government has to focus infrastructure like providing the good drainage system, good water facilities and medical facilities.

A nation with good infrastructure will tend to build good smart cities.

According to my opinion, yes sir, wee need smart cities. Because now a days water logging in our cities is a red hot topic in our society. Water logging occurs because of lack of infrastructure and lack of future planning. Due to illegal construction. Government has brought a great idea of smart cities, where ignited mind of our country will think to make our cities smarter.

Now I want to talk about cyclone fani, which has completely destroyed our city, blackout remains 12 days in our city, but in smart cities electricity comes from underground, so by that during natural disaster we will enjoy electricity recklessly.

In smart cities we will get 24*7 internet connectivity across the city. Our people can stay connected with world.
