But, at the same time, we need both things for generating more economy. Which means, along with this development we need to find out the solutions for the growing & upcoming challenges. There has to be a team to identify and tackle the challenges. The team shall include people from various sectors like Government departments, design & planning sectors and stakeholders. In the following sections, the various measures to mitigate such challenges will be discussed. Few parameters can be incorporated with existing urban scenario such as Incorporation of agriculture and farming in urban areas, Amalgamation of various stakeholders, Making People Empathetic, not just the Cities Smart, Use of innovative new materials for smart infrastructure etc. © ZEMCH Network.
