Dear all,
As you are aware Hubli- Dharwad city is one of the city, that has been chosen for

phase.
The success of our proposal will depend upon participation of maximum number of
people in evolving the plan. This is being monitored by the central government
through its portal mygov.in. I want every one of you to visit the site and give
your suggestions how Hubli city should transform into a smart city. You
participation is appreciated. Please contribute to development of your city by

Message for from Mr. Manivannan, Who inspired millions and played a big role in
transforming Hubli _Dharwad. He is now mentoring Hubli Dharwad smart city project.
> Dear all,
> 
> 
> Are you from Hubli-Dharwad?!
> 
> 
> 
> Wondered when Hubli-Dharwad will become a city in real sense? Dreamt of clean
roads, good water, electricity and above all, a professional government?!
> 
> Your dream may come true soon!
> 
> For the first time in the history of our country, we have a project, that is based
on citizens ideas and opinions. 
> 
> Yes, SMART CITY project is unlike what i have seen in the past. Its about
participation of citizens, their vision. 
> 
> We must admire the genius of the Government of India, that they brought a truly
participative project.
> 
> Hubballi-Dharwad has been shortlisted in the 100 cities selected in the fist
round. Now, from the 100 cities, 20 will be selected for first phase of
development into SMART city. 
> 
> How are the 20 selected? Nobody sits in Delhi or Bangalore to select as it used to
happen earlier! Now, citizens select! The citizens of these 100 cities compete
with themselves to become the top 20!
> 
> The entire game is played in the https://mygov.in/ <https://mygov.in/> platform!
> 
> The game has started. For example, all the 6 shortlisted town of Karnataka,
Mangalore, Tumkur, Shimoga, Belgaum, Davanagere, and our Hubballi-Dharwad are in
the My giv website, where the citizens are dicussing to arrive at a vision for the
city! They are also deciding what the city should do to become SMART! There is
even polling to decide what the city wants!
> 
> Once that is decided, then the government gives a seed money of 1000 crores!
Keeping that, we can raise another 5000 or 6000 crores to achieve what we want!
> 
> Indeed, to make the local governance better, we won't need that much money! We
need the citizens to become SMART along with the local leaders, both Political and
officials. 
> 
> When the citizens participate, things change for better. I have seen it myself.
Transparency is the first right step towards good governance!
> 
> 
> 
> So, what are you waiting for?! 
> 
> Log into: https://mygov.in/ <https://mygov.in/>   Register and post your thought
and ideas how you want Hubballi-Dharwad to be in 2021. If your idea is good, we
will shotlist it and put it up for voting! The best idea will get cash award too!
First prize is Rs. 1 lakh! We have another 2 more prizes!
>  
> Remember, this project is a golden opportunity to initiate a change to make your
Hubli-Dharwad better!
> 
> Don’t miss it! It’s for you, your family, and your children and for the future
generation of our city!
