Including Ajanta and Ellora, Aurangabad is having many well-known heritage monuments & tourist attractions and hence TOURISM is one of the main Economic driver of our City. In my view there is still large scope to develop our City as one of the best tourism destination through restoration and conservation of various structures & monuments as well as by creating tourism centric projects.

We all know without basic facilities like sufficient water, electricity, House, transportation (public), connectivity (Airways, Roads, Railways) there is no growth of any city. Without fulfillment of these basic needs Aurangabad cannot become a Smart City.
Wastage of water from Paithan Dam to A’bad city must be stopped.
A’bad must be connected with other cities of Marathwada with good roads. Railways are best way of connectivity with other smart cities but issue with availability.

As Jalna road is life-line of the city, complete jalna road should be cement road from baba petrol pump to chikalthana. This will resolve most of the traffic problem of city.
