Smart Cities India 2016 expo

The smart cities plan was originally devised by Sheila Dixit during her Chief Ministership of Delhi. Her government had planned to convert the agricultural land on the outskirts of Western Delhi into a smart city zone of Delhi. The current government has decided to take the previous government's project forward.

Important factors in a smart city include preparing the roadmap with schedules for completion of each task; allotment of funds and resources; technical provisions to build smart cities; involvement of countries, ministries, associations, etc., and how their efforts can be leveraged to create “smart cities” in India.
