The Indore Smart City Mission is a part of the Smart Cities Mission. It is an initiative by the Government of India to drive India into the age of advancement through economic growth. This advancement rests on the shoulders of India’s cities, which are the engines of economic growth. These cities are contributing 63% of India’s GDP, even though only 31% of the population lives in these urban areas. The Mission envisions promoting mixed land use in area-based developments–planning for ‘unplanned areas’ containing a range of compatible activities. Land uses that are close to one another in order to make land use more efficient. Flexibility in land use and building bye-laws will be possible thanks to the States.

Smart cities or competition is the method of selecting cities for funding and using a strategy of area-based development. Indore has carried out one of the widest citizen engagement programmes for the shaping of vision, goals and strategies, selection and planning of ABD and Pan-city proposals. The exercise was extensive both in terms of participation and the diversity of mediums used. The extent of citizens involved over 25% of the city population (with 591965 interactions through all mediums). And Indore having a historical background starting from the 1800s is a challenge accepted by the city to strengthen its identity and enhance its associational values.
