Dear Citizens of Rajkot, ...

Dear Citizens of Rajkot,

The Rajkot Municipal Corporation (RMC) is all set to re-invigorate the Smart City proposal preparation process as part of Round II of the Smart City Mission. The City missed the first list by a whisker and is poised to ensure success this time around. RMC is currently working closely with the citizens to strengthen its smart city proposal. The participation of citizens is absolutely crucial in ensuring the success of our city.

We request you for your suggestion and inputs for improvement of our city’s proposal submitted in the Round I. Your views on smart solutions and city priorities would help us to further innovate and strengthen the proposal for the Round II. Kindly give suggestions for improvement of services within the city with focus on physical and social infrastructure plans. The Broad spectrum of service areas is provided below:

• Adequate water supply including waste water recycling and storm water reuse,
• Assured electricity supply including solar power,
• Sanitation, including solid waste management,
• Efficient urban mobility and public transport,
• Affordable Housing, especially for poor,
• Robust IT connectivity and digitalization,
• Good Governance, especially e-Governance and citizen participation,
• Sustainable environment,
• Ensuring safety of citizens, especially women and elderly, and
• Health and Education

Please click here to view the Rajkot’s Smart City Proposal and help us identify the gaps to make a better proposal.

Traffic problems and vehicular pollution has to be addressed. Most of the vehicles plying are outdated and will not stand upto a pollution control norms

The city has to solve the water problems. Water crisis in summers should not continue especially because of the narmada project.

There must be a solution for the traffic problem at Kotcha Chowk everyday during office dispersals. Also there should be a solution for the "infected water" being transported to the homes and elsewhere. This water is leading to the growth of white patches on the citizen's face. I too suffer from it and doctors have said that it's difficult to get rid of it as it is in the very water used for bathing, drinking etc. All treatments have proved to be a failure.

Also proper planning needs to be in place to prevent an unreal skyrocketing of real estate prices, because of the lions share of valuable real estate falling into the hands of a few. The city development corporation should have a sustainable housing/industrial development plan ranging over atleast 25 years.

The city should also have a combined tourism package engrossing its various strengths around Historical landmarks, Arts (performing arts, native forms like Dayro etc.), traditional industry showcase (jewelry, silk etc.)

Rajkot should give special attention to drinking water availability to the common populace and also have a solid plan for cleansing and maintainence of the Aji and Nyari rivers

Rajkot should not succumb to the ill fate of other cities in India which grew faster than it could contain and provide for- Hence a long term urban planning in terms of Infrastructure and waste/drainage management should go hand in hand with growth

Rajkot being a fast growing city, its growth plan should incorporate and accommodate ways of growing greener and cleaner, by cutting carbon emissions and maintaining a green cover
