Delhi: The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs on Wednesday said that around 7,380 projects out of 8,075 projects of Smart Cities Mission (CSM) have been completed with an investment of Rs 1,47,704 crores.
The Ministry also said that on December 13, 91 per cent of the total projects have been successfully completed, reflecting significant progress in reshaping urban landscapes across India, said the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.
Launched on June 25, 2015 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the ‘Smart Cities Mission’ aims to improve the quality of life in 100 cities by providing efficient services, robust infrastructure, and sustainable solutions.
Focused on economic growth, inclusivity, and sustainability, it addresses diverse needs such as housing, transport, education, healthcare, and recreation, with the goal of creating adaptable urban spaces that serve as models for other cities.
All 100 smart cities have operational ICCCs, which utilise data for making informed decisions.
These ICCCs functioned as Civid-war rooms during the pandemic and have significantly improved city operations such as transport, water supply, and solid waste management by integrating emerging technologies like AI, IoT, and data analytics.
