The decision to make 100 cities smart cities in the country has been taken by the government.
Such a scale has been prepared to have at least one smart city in all the states, for which the state governments have been asked to send the list of cities of their state in 15 days. On June 25, 2015, Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself has presented the Smart City project in front of the countrymen.
Union Urban Development Minister Venkaiah Naidu said that every state will have a smart city. He said that the work of the smart city would be done in two phases, first the construction of the new smart city, second the renovation of the old city.
For the new smart city, there is a plan to give a smart city between two big cities.
The city which has a population of more than 1 lakh will be made a smart city.
The cities which are to be made smart cities must have the provision of transport along with the municipal corporation, electricity, and water system. Also, IT should be used city.
Along with this, it was also said that a smart city will help in the development of its nearest city.
Most of the names of cities of Uttar Pradesh have been included in Smart City.

A budget of Rs 48,000 crore has been prepared by the Center for Smart City. Apart from this, two schemes have been launched by the government.

Smart City is such a concept that will take all of us closer to the digital world. The only difference between us and the western countries is digitization. Our growth rate is low because of our distance from the digital world. If we cover this distance, we can easily become a developed country.
Will come to count.
Modi Ji has made it clear in his speech that this smart city scheme is starting from the top, not the bottom, in which the municipal corporation and municipality will talk for the first time about the information and problem of their city.
