Traditional mode of governance is robust in the area and in sync with mainstream governance. this will certainly contribute to smooth transition from a normal city to Smart City in future.

The labour force working in water/wastewater and solid waste management facilities is primarily composed of men. Focus group and National Working Group participants felt the lack of female representation is due to poor marketing. Careers in both water/wastewater treatment and solid waste management are seen as male-dominated jobs, and though women have the skills to do the job, many are not aware of the career possibilities.

The labour force working in water/wastewater facilities is nearing retirement and many of the most critical positions are
going to be particularly affected. The industry, in general, is “top heavy” with a large portion of managers and senior personnel over the age of 50 years old. There was considerable mention in focus groups as well as the National Working Group that there will be a crunch for qualified practitioners once the current senior personnel retire.

Smart city, the core infrastructure service like adequate supply of clean water, sanitation and solid waste management , efficient urban mobility and transport , robust IT connectivity , affordable housing for the poor are to be reflected in the plan proposal.

Smart city proposal should be made with meticulous plan giving only the local feasibilities by taking suggestion from all walk of life or profession. Our dream for smart city should not be shattered. We must achieve this time.

The cost-saving factor together with the overall improvements in efficiency of LED streetlight technology are responsible for rapidly increasing sales and a growing amount of LED streetlight retrofitting projects worldwide, especially as street lighting accounts for a substantial part of a city’s energy bill.

With the publicity made related to proposed Smart city, people pictures it synonym to good road, continuous water supply, uninterrupted electricity a good looking robust infrastructure and a safer transportation and communication system. This feeling is to be redressed or taken care in submission of plan project.

It is encouraging to learn that due to hard work of NSS, JNC campus is getting 24 x 7 light and water in.

Training and development opportunities fail to address core skills Training and professional development for practitioners in solid waste facilities tend to focus on technical aspects of
the industry. Many municipalities feel that administrative and communication skills are not adequately represented in their workforce due to the lack of suitable training opportunities in these areas.

Though there is street light provision but many a time we found dark after 9pm. With this proposal, we should give stress for street light.
