[TushShar]

But what are smart cities,
exactly?
A 'smart city' is an urban region that
is highly advanced in terms of
overall infrastructure, sustainable
real estate, communications and
market viability. It is a city where
information technology is the
principal infrastructure and the basis
for providing essential services to
residents. There are many
technological platforms involved,
including but not limited to
automated sensor networks and
data centres.
According to the documents
released on the Smart Cities
website, the core infrastructure in a
smart city would include:
Adequate water supply
Assured electricity supply
Sanitation, including solid waste
management
Efficient urban mobility and public
transport
Affordable housing, especially for the
poor
Robust IT connectivity and
digitalisation
Good governance, especially e-
Governance and citizen participation
Sustainable environment
Safety and security of citizens,
particularly women, children and the
elderly
Health and education
(Source: 404 - File or directory not found.
In a smart city, economic
development and activity is
sustainable and rationally
incremental by virtue of being based
on success-oriented market drivers
such as supply and demand. They
benefit everybody, including
citizens, businesses, the government
and the environment. Smart Cities: What are they?: The Hindu - Mobile edition

Gud to see cities like jabalpur nd sholapur in d list.... as they need more development....compared to most other cities in dlist.. which are already developed to some extent. :win

Very cleverly govt have given d names of cities which r already big n developed.. instead they shud have given names of few underdeveloped cities.

They r playing politics as well....
UP.. bihar.. bengal... all are non bjp ruled states... and none is listed here :dodgy

How can u develop India without developing UP n bihar... may be d most struggling big states in India.
I dont mean to demean any state.... but thats how bjp is playing politics.

@samand : dehradun doesnt need to be smart :no
Its a hill station nd a beautiful one at that.... ppl come from city life to dehradun to forget their smartness...
Why do u wanna change that.... dehradun is heavenly as a tourist place... :tup

Clarification: At the time of posting a article website shown "jabalpur , Rajasthan" only .. they may change afterwards as "jabalpur , Madhya Pradesh" while i was posted the article .. I didnt change or edit anything from the article .. And also I saw one ss in this thread indicating "jabalpur , madhya pradesh" that ss was taken after the mistake rectified by the hindu daily technical team -Thank you ..
