What I think is that everyone requires a smart city to live in. But we should follow certain standards and we should inculcate certain habits so that everyone lives happily together without affecting life of others.

Now, coming to the point a smart city is one which has all facilities from basic housing to school to transportation to shopping malls at the same place electronically connected with each other. Who will not be willing to live in such place where we don't need to go here and there for different things. But first, we should focus on making ourself develop. So it is necessary that we let our economy grow and we should contribute to it whole heartedly. We should try to reduce all those things which are making our environment polluted i.e. we should use more and more bicycles as it not only helps in keeping our surrounding clean it keeps us fit also. Secondly, proper sanitation facility should be available for everyone and all should start using toilets instead of using forest area or grassland for the same.

The most important is we should keep our surrounding clean and minimize use of plastic bags as from a recent research by scientists it was found that the non-biodegradable polythenes are the major cause of global warming. All the environment protection Act which have been issued should be strictly followed and those who are found disregarding it, rigorous action should be taken against them.

Once we follow all the above, living in a Smart City would be the best alternative.

Hi, I would suggest that India needs smart cities and many countries in the world have smart cities. What can't we just have few smart cities? Smart cities have ecological power, fresh air, Better transport which helps in development of industries. We need smart cities to get smarter and Globally Competitive. Thanks.

Hello friends.

According to my point of view, in today's scenario, we want to generate new employment as compared to smart cities. We know that in India 10 out of 7 students are job seekers. So the smart cities and make in India programs are useless. Instead of smart cities we should give chance to make people's smart by giving them smart technology and proper guidance for cleanliness India. And proper training for assembling small scale industries. And motivational offers to improve their annual income for the peoples of India. As compared to smart cities according to my point of view government should take step towards the employment of youth. And provide job to the youth. If youngsters requirement will fulfill then India becomes smart automatically. We want smart rules as compared to smart cities. This is today's need. Gov should spend money for fight against corruption and sanitary facility. And education and for providing proper training and guidance for freshers.

Hello friends.

No, we do not need smart cities of this time because first, we can change our mind or attitude. Firstly people get smart then after getting smart cities.

People eat a Tobacco and other tobacco product splitting on a road this habits can change the people then make our cities smart.

Yes, smart cities are necessary but before that, the thinking of the people should be change to smart. Some people are already having that kind of thinking. But if we talk about some remaining people then they don't have to do anything with what happening in India and they are self-centred. They are only thinking about there own development but not about the all. So if people attitude changes to smart then all the cities become the smart automatically.

Yes, In my point of view smart cities really need for developing our country and mainly to fulfill the theme "Make In India".

But firstly we are changing the rural background as well as our educational system then only our India is placed one of the best countries in the world.

Hello friends, In my mind, smart cities means the developments of our society, living life style, economic growth etc. Mainly smart city refer to the development, construction of our school, hospitals and 24*7 electricity, the housing of all middle-class family even lower class family. Although we need smart cities but firstly we need smart peoples around us who can contribute his smartness works for our society. You know friends in our country main problem is corruption and everyone indulge in it. My words would be getting bitter but this is truth it means corruption is parts of our country identity it also only pen and paper reduce will be soon but look in the actual ground what is happening. If we want to make smart cities firstly we have to end up the corruption. It will possible then. In addition, our PM says 100 cities proceeding on smart cities but if we invest that money in countryside our India can make smart and our farmer can get benefits.
