Contd... We still have: 9-People using public places as their own (or of their so called Dada/Mama/Bhau/Kaka/Baba/Bhaiyya/Mummy/Kaku/Ajji)- The huge cut-outs will tell you; 10- A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION WITH LACK OF WILL, MANAGEMENT AND IDEAS- hence lack interest in competing with other smarter cities and lack of funds and poor city development; 11- Lot of sound and air pollution- more during festivals or processions; 12- Poor condition of roads, gardens, public places and water resources

Hello everyone! Many congratulations to all my fellow citizens of Solapur for making the selection of our city in the smart cities project a success. I went through many of the recent suggestions posted by our fellow citizens here, but I hardly found very few of them commenting about the basic things which our city needs to be a smart city.
