Rejuvenation of Urban Governance through Smart Cities Mission in India

Author(s) G. Kannan, S.Kasim Nasheer
Country India
Abstract India’s growth ambitions rest significantly on the ability of cities to perform their role as engines of economic growth; hence, urban governance has emerged as an important policy matter. The Smart Cities Mission (SCM) is integral to a set of large-scale, ambitious federal programmes aimed to rejuvenate and modernize Indian cities. The SCM, a flagship programme has greatly enhanced the ability of participating cities to govern: allowing cities the choice to interpret smartness in contextually relevant ways; enabling flexible governance mechanisms through institutional innovation; and improving coordination through data-driven and technology infrastructure. Smart cities offer hope for a more responsive and adaptive urban environment with improved quality of life, increased efficiency and enhanced public engagement. However, the realization of these aspirations requires a thoughtful and holistic approach that considers the complex interplay between technology, governance and societal needs.
