Whatever Govt is building, it should have a strong monitoring body to maintain the same quality at which is getting built. Otherwise, in India there is a common tendency that after 5-10 year down the line of any project completion, that become messy like footpath are blocked by hockers, sanitary system gets nonfunctional, etc. and ultimately the quality of the area goes down. There should be a solid plan from the beginning to prevent it.

Eradication of arsenic from water should be the top priority. Drinking water should always be 100% pure.Roads should be pothole free, more greenery,fully wifi zone, more subway for pedestrians.

This is a remarkable and appreciable initiate taken by the govt. For a City to be Smart at least the basic facilities need to be in place, the top priorities:
1. Water - the water quality is very poor
2. Safe road for pedestrians
3. Cleanliness
4. Traffic - in mess, to start at least there should be designated bus stops, zero tolerance to traffic violation
5. Trees - Contrary to Salt Lake it looks like a concrete jungle, more greenery reqd
6. Severe air pollution
7. Stray animal-free
