Benefit of events like SU to India’s Smart City Mission
This is a very good platform to connect. I have learnt a lot on the best practices adopted by other cities. The event has also allowed us to connect with various OEMs, vendors and consultants and interact with them to discuss ideas not only for the present but for the future.

Upcoming tenders and projects in the city
We have floated a tender that is a combination of three different projects. We are also implementing 13,000 smart water meters for commercial establishments. A project that has finished technical evaluation is the construction of a smart school. We are making 656 state- of-the-art smart classrooms. Another project is an emergency response centre as the city is quite prone to natural disasters. It will be equipped with drones, evacuation centres and video conferencing for all departments.
