Smart City Chandigarh:Residents Ideas for Smart City Compiled

By 121 News

Chandigarh 04th September:- The Nodal Officer (Smart City), Danish Ashraf, has compiled the ideas submitted by residents for smart city Chandigarh & on the basis of these ideas a ranking chart has been prepared. With the help of various mediums provided for engaging residents to submit their views on smart cities more than 1000 submissions have been received till date. However the administration expects more participation (and soon ward/sector level consultation process will start in coming week). The plethora of ideas submitted by the residents can broadly be divided into 20 themes. The rankings of the themes submitted by public show their concern areas on which administration has to focus in its Smart City Proposal (SCP).

Most residents have written about developing various IT Initiatives to facilitate public and digital literacy. This theme is placed on rank 1. Traffic-Parking problems & Cleanliness are the 2nd & 3rd most important concern for the residents. One important trend seen in these ideas is that many people have written about changing people's mentality to understand their responsibility and duty towards the city as a responsible resident. There were ideas regarding taking oath by public not to get involved on encroachment (on Govt/ land) activities.
