Quote from Neel Ratan, Leader- Government and Public Sector, PwC India on Smart Cities Mission and AMRUT:

- Launch of Smart City program  comes at a time when the government, private sector and citizens alike are looking at balanced growth, with higher standards of living, created in a resource efficient manner. Such ambitious projects need innovative implementation solutions and adequate capacity at the city administration level. This is a positive step towards building a sustainable and inclusive urbanisation story for India.

- Defining the right Key Performance Indicators and associated techno-legal reforms will need lot of deliberation. PPP will be key to implement smart city. Getting multiple agencies to co-ordiante and move towards a common city vision will be prerequisite to a smart city.

- The whole agenda of this government around Smart City, Make in India, Skill India, Digital India will help create the Future India.
