What are the ingredients of a smart city?  Does it mean being technological infrastructure? How can we make development inclusive to cover every strata of society?
These and many questions confound every Chandigarh resident.  There are big plans in the offing but a middle class household still struggles with a few essentials.  Water supply for example.  The condition of roads, and street lights in the southern part of the city.
