## ANSWER

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

- (a) & (b) Implementation of Smart Cities Mission (SCM) at the City level has been  done  by  a  Special Purpose  Vehicle  (SPV)  created  for  planning, appraising,  approving  projects,  releasing  funds,  procuring,  managing, operating, monitoring and evaluating the Smart City development projects. These SPVs are jointly owned by the State/UT and Urban Local Bodies (ULBs), with equal shareholding.

In the State of Maharashtra 08 cities, viz. Aurangabad, Kalyan-Dombivali, Nagpur,  Nashik,  Pimpri  Chinchwad,  Pune,  Solapur  and  Thane  were selected. As reported by the State, as on 01.12.2025, out of a total 347 projects amounting to ₹16,981 crore, 330 projects (95% of total projects) amounting to ₹15,505 crore have been completed and the remaining 17 projects amounting to ₹1,476 crore are ongoing.

In the State of Madhya Pradesh, 07 cities, viz. Bhopal, Gwalior, Indore, Jabalpur, Sagar, Satna and Ujjain have been selected. Khandwa was not included in the cities recommended by the State Government of Madhya Pradesh for selection. As reported by the State, as on 01.12.2025, out of a total 788 projects amounting to ₹15,129 crore, 774 projects (98% of total projects)  amounting  to  ₹14,567  crore  have  been  completed  and  the remaining 14 projects amounting to ₹562 crore are ongoing.

In the UT of Dadra and Nagar Haveli, only one city i.e. Silvassa has been selected.  As  reported  by  the  UT,  as  on  01.12.2025,  out  of  a  total  29 projects  amounting  to  ₹853  crore,  12  projects  (41%  of  total  projects) amounting  to  ₹416  crore  have  been  completed  and  the  remaining  17

projects amounting to ₹437 crore are ongoing.

Since SCM is a city level project, the information is maintained only at the city level, details of which for the States of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and UT of Dadra and Nagar Haveli are placed at Annexure-I.

- (c) Smart City Proposals (SCPs) have been planned at the local level based on the local needs of the cities, in consultation with various stakeholders, including citizens, across various sectors. As per SCM Guidelines, at the city level, there is a provision for establishing Smart City Advisory Forum (SCAF) comprising of District Collector, Member of Parliament, Member of Legislative Assembly, Mayor, Chief Executive Officer of Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), local youth representation, technical experts, etc. to advise and enable collaboration among various stakeholders.
- (d) The cities under SCM are being developed based on Smart City Proposals (SCPs)  received  from  States/UTs,  across  various  sectors,  viz.,  smart mobility,  Water,  Sanitation,  Hygiene  (WASH),  smart  governance,  smart energy, environment etc., approved by High Powered Steering Committee (HPSC) chaired by the Chief Secretary.

Urban mobility projects include public bicycle sharing, intelligent traffic management, a common mobility card system, the development of the Smart Janpath Road and multi-level car parking with advanced surveillance system, with over 100 CCTV cameras monitored through the city's Integrated Command and Control Centre.

Under WASH, the city focused on enhancing solid waste management by procuring  waste  collection  vehicles,  promoting  source  segregation, encouraging  decentralized  waste  processing,  and  conducting  citizen awareness campaigns and construction of a sewage treatment plant.

Details of the projects undertaken smart mobility and WASH sector in SCM is at Annexure-II.

- (e)   & (f) Under the provisions of Companies Act, 2013, audit of the Special Purpose Vehicles under SCM is conducted by the State Auditor General, Audit  in  the  State/UTs.  Further,  Ministry  of  Housing  and  Urban  Affairs (MoHUA) has a multi-level review structure to expedite the progress of projects under  the SCM.  At  the  National  level, implementation  is monitored by an Apex Committee headed by Secretary, MoHUA.  At the State level, Mission implementation is monitored by the State level High Powered Steering Committee (HPSC) chaired by the Chief Secretary.  At the  City  level,  there  is  provision  for  establishing  Smart  City  Advisory Forum (SCAF) for all 100 cities to advise and enable collaboration among various stakeholders.
