To successfully execute this initiative, the DMAF was also started to encourage cities to grow their data infrastructure and facilitate them in assessing their readiness and maturity on data.

On the occasion, another assessment of cities concerning climate change preparedness was also issued, in which Kohima secured two stars out of a maximum of five stars in the Climate Smart Cities Assessment Framework 2.0.
