The Government of India, Ministry of Urban Development had launched Smart City Mission in June, 2015. Madurai City is one among the 100 cities identified for implementation of Smart City Mission. Smart City proposal should be submitted to Government of India, Ministry of Urban Development within 100 days from the date of announcement. The top 20 cities will be selected from the 100 shortlisted cities based on the Smart City Proposal. The Smart City Proposal includes city wide Smart Urban Solution as well as specific area development. Upon short listing Madurai will claim to work towards becoming a Smart city. The dream of Tamil Nadu Government is towards transition of Madurai into a smart and sustainable city.

The process of the Smart City Plan preparation is driven by intense citizen engagement at different levels in the city, for which Madurai City Municipal Corporation has prepared an extensive citizen engagement plan. The idea is to capture the voice and unique vision of the citizens for the city and engage with them pro-actively to understand city’s priority, issues and the priority solution based on their needs.

Madurai City Municipal Corporation has carried out citizen awareness meeting, government official consultation, stakeholder consultation and elected representatives consultation as part of the citizen engagement exercise. Further, based on the various consultations certain Area based development models and City wide Pan-city solutions have been identified. These identified Area Based Development Models and Pan-City Solutions are now placed before the citizens for their opinion and voting on www.maduraismartcity.in.

Madurai’s citizens and community is its biggest strength hence their views and feedback is very essential and important in this process. At this juncture the citizens are requested to participate in this forum and share their views and vision about Madurai city. Your views, opinions and solutions on urban issues are invited for making Madurai enter into top 20 cities in India.

Let us participate to make this proposal inclusive and meaningful for every citizen of the city.

Kindly, post your views and ideas till 15th October 2015.

Any city should have a infrastructure plan for future population growth in mind for the next 30 - 40 years. A smart city should have it for 50 -60 years which is required for any business to be cultivated. India as a whole should plan to a small town outside city and ensure people living there have adequate resources to lead normal day to day life. Business and companies should be spread around the city to ensure concentration is not in one side of the city. Healthy growth prospects is key.

नीति -निर्धारकों में गैर-धार्मिकता के चलते भी विकास की जगह विनाश ने ले ली है। - "नागरिकों की सेवा सर्वोपरि नही है , उनसे लाभ कमाना ही मुख्य उद्देश्य है। "- उनमे ऐसे भाव प्रबल हो गए हैं ।

FEW CITIES IN INDIA HAVE RIVERS PASSING THROUGH THE CITY AND MADURAI IS ONE OF THEM. IF WE CLEAN UP THIS RIVER, CONSTRUCT RETAINER WALLS/FENCING BOTH SIDE OF THE RIVER, CONSTRUCT 2 OR 3 CHECK-DAM SO THAT WATER IS STORED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, START WATER SPORT ACTIVITIES IN THE RIVER, THIS EFFORT ITSELF WILL BEAUTIFY THE CITY.
