The list of 20 smart cities out of the 98 shortlisted for the ‘Smart Cities Mission’ was released by the Urban Development Minister M Venkaiah Naidu, with Bhubaneswar topping the list and Pune and Jaipur coming in second and third respectively. These 20 cities will be the first to receive funds, thus kick-starting the process of developing them into ‘smart cities’. The next two years will see the inclusion of 40 and 38 cities, respectively.
