In this episode of Lets Talk Policy, Uttara joins us to reflect upon the Indian smart city mission.
We discuss the primary objective of the smart cities' mission in India, the effects of including private stakeholders, the shift to a data-centered city planning, and critically analyze the dichotomies of local governance models in corporate style governance.
Uttara provides insights into the growing relationship between the government and the corporate sector and its implication on the citizenry.
