What is 'Smart City'


There is no universally accepted definition of a smart city as the conceptualization of smart city varies from city to city and
country to country, depending on the level of development, willingness to change and reform, resources and aspirations of
the city residents. Some definitional boundaries are required to guide cities in the mission. In the imagination of any city
dweller in India, the picture of a smart city contains a wish list of infrastructure and services that describes his or her level
of aspiration. To provide for the aspirations and needs of the citizens, urban planners ideally aims at developing the entire
urban eco-system, which is represented by the four pillars of comprehensive development-institutional, physical, social and
economic infrastructure. This can be a long term goal and cities can work towards developing such comprehensive
infrastructure incrementally, adding on layers of ‘smartness’.
