Mumbai Smart City Initiative through Citizen Participation

Greater Mumbai, the city of dreams, is also part of the Smart City Challenge, commissioned by the Ministry of Urban Development. The focus on making any city smart is to provide ...
The most important thing in Mumbai is to improve public transport. (1) Have smart buses with GPS fitted so that everyone using an app/SMS can know when the next bus will come, how crowded it is. Aim to be like Paris/New York where you have metro in every corner. (2) Using electronic tools (camera etc), catch those who violate traffic rules and fine them mercilessly. (3) Maintain roads and sidewalks properly.
i grew up in Dubai and witnessed how they made beautification efforts which is why their cityscape looks so stunning. Simple idea of planting trees with easy drip irrigation system and then the whole image will change in about 5 to 10 years.
Please take a look at this video Sir. Indonesia was hit very hard in the 2004 tsunami. This is living proof that when there is a will there is a way

Our dream to see green #Mumbai #MyGov
A great step in sewage management is to process then sewage in BIOGAS units and use the biogas as fuel.Not only this,the biogas sewage sludge which is left over can be used as manure or landfill for growth of POPLAR,which is a shrub which grows into adult plant size in under one year.So an ANNUAL POPLAR BASED SHORT ROTATION COPPICE can be initiated at urban level.This poplar harvest(WOOD) can be used BOTH FOR PLYWOOD MAKING AND THERMAL ELECTRICITY GENERARATION FROM CHARCOAL.PLEASE DON,T WORRY ABOUT CO? FOOTPRINTS WHEN I HAVE SAID'THERMAL ELECTRICITY' , BECAUSE THIS IS A CLOSED CYCLE CO? GENERATION.That means whatever co? is generated by this year's poplar is actually utilized by the next year's poplar crop.This technology is presently being used in England.The requirements needed for this project would be a large piece land,thermal electricity generation machinery,wood cutting manpower and machinery for cutting wood into small chips(for efficient combustion) as well as a very very efficient system for collection of sewage and organic waste.It is best if we can promote WASTE SEGREGATION AT SOURCE.The organic waste consisting of kitchen waste,dried biomass like leaves etc. can also be added to biogas chamber along with sewage.The non organic waste like plastic SHOULD BE RECYCLED.AGAIN FOR THIS ALSO,WE HAVE A GOOD TECHNOLOGY WITH ZERO CARBON FOOTPRINT AND THAT IS CALLED "solar rotational molding" by LIGHTMANUFACTURING.COM.By this technology we can mold the thermoplastic waste into useful products like dustbins,water tanks,etc.SPECIAL MENTION OF PLASTIC BOTTLES:THESE CAN BE USED TO CREATE MANY ACTIVE AND CREATIVE THINGS OF EVERYDAY USE SUCH AS TOYS,MONY PRSES,ETC and even STREET LIGHTS.YES,STREET LIGHTS.VISIT liter of light.com to know more.PAPER WASTE CONSISTING OF papers ,cardboards etc. constitutes about 50% of an average Indian dustbin.All this paper can be recycled.Many of our municipal corporations are trying to get rid of all this waste by just incinarating it.BUT BELIEVE ME INCINERATION WON'T HELP IN THE LONG RUN.IT ONLY ADDS MORE CO?TO THE ATMOSPHERE.Waste segregation at source and proper processing of solid waste both from dustbins and latrines can alone help our 'SMART CITIES' to :
1)efficiently handle wastes
2)create more job opportunities
3)create a more eco friendly city with minimum carbon credits
4)create amenities such as plastic,wood,electricity,paper within the borders of the city so as to improve the services to people.
HOPING TO FIND ALL THESE TECHNOLOGIES IN OUR CITIES IN THE NEAR FUTURE
THANKYOU
Doubt if Railway station comes under MOUD, but since discussion is on Mumbai city, most of the Local Railways station are anti Person with Disability with no ramp or handgrills
The Pavements , buildings and Roads to be made Handicap friendly. currently, its with great difficult for Person with Disability to commute

The first objective of the Smart City should be to make the city liveable. Please refer to the report by The Economist on Global Liveability Ranking 2015 - http://www.eiu.com/public/topical_report.aspx?campaignid=Liveability2015
Focus on improving the Quality of Life indicators for people in the city. Refer to links below -

announce Mumbai hopefully stop new construction and start developing basic infrastructure for it which it immediately needs
