Smart City proposal should be submitted to Government of India, Ministry of Urban Development within 100 days from the date of announcement. The top 20 cities will be selected from the 100 shortlisted cities based on the Smart City Proposal. The Smart City Proposal includes city wide Smart Urban Solution as well as specific area development. Upon short listing Madurai will claim to work towards becoming a Smart city. The dream of Tamil Nadu Government is towards transition of Madurai into a smart and sustainable city.

The process of the Smart City Plan preparation is driven by intense citizen engagement at different levels in the city, for which Madurai City Municipal Corporation has prepared an extensive citizen engagement plan. The idea is to capture the voice and unique vision of the citizens for the city and engage with them pro-actively to understand city’s priority, issues and the priority solution based on their needs.

Madurai City Municipal Corporation has carried out citizen awareness meeting, government official consultation, stakeholder consultation and elected representatives consultation as part of the citizen engagement exercise. Further, based on the various consultations certain Area based development models and City wide Pan-city solutions have been identified. These identified Area Based Development Models and Pan-City Solutions are now placed before the citizens for their opinion and voting on www.maduraismartcity.in.

Madurai’s citizens and community is its biggest strength hence their views and feedback is very essential and important in this process. At this juncture the citizens are requested to participate in this forum and share their views and vision about Madurai city. Your views, opinions and solutions on urban issues are invited for making Madurai enter into top 20 cities in India.

Let us participate to make this proposal inclusive and meaningful for every citizen of the city.

Kindly, post your views and ideas till 15th October 2015.

Madurai is the living 2000 years old heritage symbol of Sangam civilization. It's ancient heritage structures are yet to be notified for proper preservation. The tourist potential needs to be explored for the economic sustenance of the city. Vaigai river and the scores of irrigation tanks, temple tanks and channels - all ingeniously built during the ancient Pandya era but stand encroached / vandalized - in the city need preservation/ revamp for water security / beauty of the city.

Needs to be clean. Madurai is a temple city and hence should be developed as a heritage city. It could also be the hub agricultural complex nearby by providing a agro-processing industries.

In respect to smart city, people safety and security specially to woman should be given high priority.CCTV camara should be fixed at all the points from entrance of city to exit of city, which should be constantly monitored. smart city should be trade,sercives and business oriented, NO industries which make pollution, should be sanctioned within the limit of 25 kms of the city. The city should be completely with trees and plants,it should be pollution free, The people should feel like heaven
