Project Background, Project Objective, Project Description, Specifications and Scope of Work
Project Background
City of Bhopal participated in the Smart City Challenge (Phase 1) and is one of the 20 shortlisted cities by MoUD for implementing Smart City projects. Bhopal is also one of the 3 cities selected from Madhya Pradesh.
The selected Smart City Proposal (SCP) is to leverage the available resources and focus on larger development amounting to large share of public investment for smart implementing smart solutions.
The SCP has a compelling three pronged vision of improving public life through quantum jump in quality of services, simplifying governance and aligning incentives of city functionaries. The idea is to:
Maximize reuse of existing infrastructure (ICT/non ICT)
Creating a backbone for smarter initiatives in the future.
Modernize service delivery.
The vision is to Transforming Bhopal, a City of Lakes, Tradition and Heritage into a leading destination for Smart, Connected and Eco Friendly communities focused on Education, Research, Entrepreneurship and Tourism.
The themes and opportunities emerging from above vision include:
Advancing Potential for Industry and Business
Bhopal has a mature industrial base with Govindpura Industrial Area housing around 1200 Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME). The Industrial areas of BHEL, Govindpura and Mandideep collectively accounted 36% of the Bhopal's GDP.
To illustrate, Electrical Machinery and Transport equipment together account for the largest investment employing around 8400 people. Metal based production (is second largest employing around 907 people in the last few years.
Existing potential for Employment, Industrial Growth and Business Development needs is leveraged through SCP. Several factors in the Economy contribute to one another and promise to create an environment of greater economic growth. This can be an advantage in a scenario where the Country as a whole is facing a challenge of jobless growth.
Leveraging Educational Hub
High literacy rate (85%) of Bhopal, which is the 3rd largest in Madhya Pradesh complements the situation. Added advantage of having over 1300 schools and colleges in the City can help in creating a knowledge base which is a pre-requisite for any expanding economy. With proper training and skilling of the youth relevant to economy of the area, the demand supply gap in the employment market can be bridged gradually.
Additionally, Bhopal has a pool of over 10,000 retired people (Age group of 60-70) who are trained in the area of Power equipment. This human capital could be effectively utilized for their Engineering expertise.
Creating Opportunities for Small Business
Old City is home to several artisans involved in producing handicrafts like Zardozis, Batuas and Jute items. Such small scale business can be promoted by providing a platform to market local products in markets beyond Bhopal.
This involves use of ICT for promotion, entrepreneurship training of artisans and also through setting up information dissemination systems catering to their purpose.
Considering, there is a scope for generating both Skilled and Unskilled Employment, the City plans to increase consumption capacity subsequently leading to more demand and higher production.
Tourism Promotion
In the last decade, Bhopal has witnessed a splurge in Tourists with the yearly inflow crossing 10.80 lakhs (Domestic & Foreign) which was the highest in Madhya Pradesh. About 98.91% of Tourists visiting Bhopal are domestic.
This along with the advantage of being the 3rd Greenest City in the country with low pollution levels reiterates the focus of Tourism in the overall economic development.
All the above activities will align with smart city goals and improve livability and sustainability in the area and can be measured by:
Increase in availability of jobs, services and retail
Increase in disposable income, recreation and leisure time
Availability of affordable housing and diversity of housing types in the city
Improvement in air quality, water quality, parks and open spaces
Availability of multi-modal connected networks, increased mobility, safety, streetscape attractiveness
Reasonable and reliable transport
Equitable distribution of amenities
Improvement in sanitation with regular SW collection (residential) and treatment
Opportunities for direct citizen participation in Governance
