Shambhupura Kota will be developed as a smart city for which the central government has released 600 crore Rupees. Shambhupura is near Kota in the Ladpura Tehsil. Furthermore, Shambhupura is a small village located in the Kota district of Rajasthan, India. However, this area is not widely known outside of local or regional contexts. The area is primarily rural, with the local economy often depending on agriculture. It’s not far from Kota city. Moreover, it is a major educational hub and is known for its coaching centres for engineering and medical entrance exams. But now it is gaining popularity.
Under the Urban Reforms Project of the Central Government, a new smart city (model city) will be developed in Kota. While giving a green signal to this project, the Center has also approved its share of Rs 600 crore. Furthermore, the state government will contribute the same amount to the project. Along with the paradigm shift regarding development, the action plan of the project is being prepared.
A smart city can be built in Shambhupura Kota
About three years ago, the Central Government had asked the Rajasthan Government to send a proposal for a city in the state under the Urban Improvement Project. Kota’s name was sent in this. The previous government had sent the proposal to build a smart city in Ranpur to the Centre.
Recently the Central Government has asked the State Government to send a fresh proposal for the land. Afterwards, the search for land has started at a higher level. The land is being viewed around the Greenfield Airport in Shambhupura Kota. According to experts, this area is suitable for connectivity. Therefore, the chances of its selection have become higher. Moreover, a small new city is proposed to be developed in an area of ​​about 412 hectares.
A smart city will soon come to the ground
Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla said that a new smart city will be developed in Kota. This project has been approved by the Central Government. The Union Cabinet has also approved an amount of Rs 600 crore. Officials have been instructed to mark the land. Apart from Ranpur, land is also available in Shambhupura Kota.
Efforts are being made to mark the land and bring the project to the ground soon. The new city will be developed according to modern concepts.
