Smart City Mission
India is a developing country. And the most important part of
development is the infrastructure. And a city plays an important role in the
infrastructural development. And the present Indian government paid close
attention towards this development. That is why a national scheme was launched
which targets toward the overall development of the cities. In this mission 100
cities will be chosen all across the country. And for this task both the central
and the state government will collaborate.
However, as per initial reports, the implementation of the scheme has
not been up to the mark as only 7% of the allocated funds have been spend on
the scheme till January 2018.
Salient Features of this scheme:
- This project will be a public-private partnership.
- The project will be of the duration of 5 years.
- At least one city will be nominated each State and Union Territory
- Both the state and the central government will allocate Rs. 500 crores each.
Benefits of Smart Cities Mission
Now, innumerable number of benefits
will arise by this mission. They are:
1. These cities will get
the world class facilities including clean water, cleaner fuel and a good eco
system.
2. This process will
help in the overall development of the country’s economy.
3. There will be proper waste
management.
4. This will also help
in the inflow of FDIs in these cities.
