Faridabad Smart City
Faridabad is included in the list of 100 smart cities that will be created within the next five years as part of the Indian government’s revolutionary flagship initiative. The Ministry of Urban Development established the purpose of building cities with excellent infrastructure that offer decent lifestyles to their residents as well as a sustainable and clean environment. The main goal of this mission is to offer these cities cutting-edge smart technology solutions, such as smart metres, solar power, digitalization, waste management, and water recycling.
The rapid expansion and development of Faridabad as a hub for various industrial companies to spread their wings in the broad market is the main factor why the city has been selected for this enormous hoard. With the cityβs extensive fusion of large manufacturing divisions and MSMEs, the government believes that the city is capable of unleashing premium-quality entrepreneurial potential.
Vision: Transforming Faridabad into a greener and cleaner city by introducing smarter ways of living. The vision of Faridabad as a smart city includes the promotion of eco-friendly mobility, the revival of open green spaces, reducing road congestion, creating an accessible, connected, and safe city, and smart and sustainable infrastructure.
