ESSAY TOPIC: SMART CITY MISSION
Smart City Mission is an Urban renewal program by the government with a mission to develop 100 cities all over the country. The aim is to make them citizen friendly and sustainable. It was launched by honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on June 25, 2016. The Ministry of Urban Development is responsible for implementing the mission.
Cities accommodate nearly 31% of India’s population and contribute 63% of GDP (Census, 2011). Urban areas are expected to house 40% of India’s population and contribute 75% of India’s GDP by 2030. This requires comprehensive development of physical, institutional, social and economic infrastructure.
Smart cities focus on their most important requirements and on the greatest opportunities to improve lives. They tap a range of approaches – digital and information technologies, Urban planning best practices, public – private partnerships, and policy change – to make a difference. They always put people first. Application of ‘Smart’ Solutions is core area of Smart Cities.
The core infrastructure elements are adequate water supply, assured electricity supply, sanitation, including solid waste management, efficient transport, good – governance, sustainable environment, safety and security of citizens, robust IT connectivity and digitization, health and education etc.
These are some challenges too, like retrofitting requires huge investment and time. Smart cities require smart people who actively participate in governance and reforms.
However, these problems can be solved and India may have many Smart Cities which focuses on Smart solutions. For this active participation of citizens, funding from international bodies like World Bank, participation of private players. Apart from this independence to local bodies at city level is also paramount in recognizing need of cities in a decentralised way.
