## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS (SHRI TOKHAN SAHU)

- (a)  As on 15.11.2024, under the Smart Cities Mission (SCM), work orders have been issued in 8,066 projects amounting to ₹1,64,669 crore, of which 7,352 projects (i.e. 91% of total projects) amounting to ₹1,47,366 crore have been completed, as per the data provided by 100 Smart Cities. The State/UT-wise details of current status of the SCM are given at Annexure.
- (b)   Some of the key achievements of SCM observed in improving urban living standards, safety, and public services include, inter-alia, Integrated Command and Control Centres (ICCC) at all 100 smart cities, 84,000 CCTV surveillance cameras, 1,884 emergency call boxes, more than 3,000 public address  systems,  more  than  1,740  kms  of  smart  roads,  713  kms  of  cycle tracks,  17,026  kms  of  water  supply  system  being  monitored  through Supervisory  Control  and  Data  Acquisition  (SCADA)  system,  more  than  66 cities  are  managing  Solid  Waste  Management  with  increased  usage  of technology, a round 9,194 vehicles have been Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) enabled for Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL), m ore than 9,433 smart classrooms  and  41  Digital  Libraries  have  been  developed,  172  e-health centers and clinics developed and 152 health ATMs have been installed.

- (c)  Government  of  India's  policy  and  strategy  for  Indian  Urban  Development follows the provisions as laid down in the Constitution of India. It is pertinent to mention here that 'Land' and 'Colonization' are State subjects. Further, as per the 12 th  Schedule of Indian Constitution (Article 243W), Urban Planning including Town Planning is the responsibility of Urban Local Bodies (ULBs)/ Urban Development Authorities. However, Government of India views high urbanization  as  an  opportunity  towards  aspirations  of  faster  economic development.  Government  of  India  supplements  the  efforts  of  the  States through schematic interventions/ advisories.

As apprised by the Smart Cities, the challenges encountered in implementing smart  city  projects  include, inter  alia,  legal  issues,  delay  in  obtaining clearances from different departments, land acquisition, construction in hilly areas,  challenges  in  vendor  and  resource  availability  in  small  &  medium cities,  centralization  of  decision  making  in  few  cities,  utilization  of  full capacity of ICCCs with integration of all municipal departments and agencies, frequent changing and dropping of projects.

The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) has a multi-level review structure to expedite the progress of projects under the SCM. At State level, Mission  implementation  is  monitored  by  the  State  level  High  Powered Steering Committee (HPSC) chaired by the Chief Secretary. At the National level,  implementation  is  monitored  by  an  Apex  Committee  headed  by Secretary,  MoHUA.    Nominee  Directors  of  MoHUA  on  the  Boards  of  SPVs monitor progress in respective cities on a regular basis. MoHUA also regularly interacts  with  the  States  /Smart  Cities  through  video  conferences,  review meetings, field visits, regional workshops, Chief Executive Officer's (CEO's) Conference etc. at various levels to assess the performance of the 100 smart cities / ULBs and handhold them for improving the same, wherever required.

- (d)  SCM has created replicable models/projects in the 100 Smart Cities which can act as `lighthouses' for other aspiring cities of the country including 'area based development' smart cities solution (Pan city features) projects.
- Based on the learning of more than 7,000 completed projects under SCM, the mission has created multiple knowledge products to document the learnings from  scalable  and  replicable  projects.  These  publications  are  available  at SCM website: https://smartcities.gov.in/documents.
