Less: Being conscious of resource constraints, they have to generate more
impact/outcomes from use of less resources- energy, finance and others;
3.Cooperative and competitive federalism: Cities are selected through
competition in two stage challenges at State and Central levels; 4.
Integration, innovation, sustainability: It is not merely about the use of
technology, but creation of integrated infrastructure and services.
5.Technology is the means, and not the goal: Careful selection of technologies,
relevant to the context of particular cities, built around specific needs of
their communities is important for the cities to work out solutions; and 6.

have to be built around the principles of inclusiveness. Broadly, Smart Cities
address three core issues: Live-ability, Economic-ability and Sustain-ability.
Smart Cities are the incubators of the New Urban India that is the aspiration
of over 1.25 billion citizens of our country. These are the sites where the
