Ms Deepti Pande Rana

Abstract :

The announcement of 100 Smart Cities falls in line with the vision of providing ample living space in the urban regions of India. This also allows for investment opportunities in the infrastructure sector in India.When it comes to benefits or advantages which a Smart City has over a normal one is that these cities are highly advanced in terms of overall infrastructure, sustainable real estate, communications and market viability. The Smart City aims to make optimal and sustainable use of all resources, while maintaining an appropriate balance between social, environmental and economic costs. In the Smart City, maximum use is made of ICT to improve the functioning, management, and supervision of the variety of systems and services, with an emphasis on saving energy, water, land and other natural resources. The main categories that define smart cities include the quality of the environment, energy, water and wastewater, transportation and traffic, information and communication systems, quality of life, government, economics, human resources, housing and land use, homeland security, and emergency preparedness.
