5. Street Lights all around the city
6. Stop corruption
7. Public Transportation system.
Establishment of premier educational institution like J.N. College in 1964 was the turning point in the history of Pasighat which is also considered as a source of inspiration for the entire state. It produced numerous politicians, bureaucrats, lawyers, academicians, journalists, rulers and social workers.
Pasighat lack good electricity department who can handle the needs of people. Why there’s always power shortage, power cut off, sometimes no electricity for a month. It is one of the major problems there’s a need for good peoples to accomplice this need. We are waiting for the day when there will be no problems, scarcity of light in Pasighat!
For Fast track submission
it is a nice concept, but it must be smarter enough in following ways.
1) Quality Education.
2) Employment generation.
3) Better connectivity.
4) Waste management.
5) Plastic free zone.
6) Online file movement.
7) Better public Administration.
Pasighat city has enough potential for development but much will depend on the tourist aspect of the area water sports facilities need to be developed along with local market places and cleanliness of town should be top priorities.
In smart city the essential smart solution like public information government redressed, electronic service delivery, citizens engagement waste to energy and full, waste to compost, smart city lighting, smart grids, efficient waste management 100% treatment of waste water, smart matter and management, maintaining water quality, renewable source of energy, efficient energy and green building smart parking, intelligent traffic management system.
For the smart city the roadways it has to be developed. Because without the roadways there won’t be able to do the work of import and export as we can see in Pasighat the railways and airways are developing they are making airports and railways route for us which are getting connected to the other outside cities of Arunachal Pradesh. If the roadways are made and airways and railways are been developed than it would be easier to get connected to the outer world.
As the city Pasighat is under the project to become a smart city. Our view including it is that if Pasighat is projected to become a smart city then first it had to solve the problem of electricity because in Pasighat there is very rare electricity has been provided, the city doesn’t even get some time light for two-three days. If the problem of electricity is solved then it would be the first step taking to become a smart city.
Electricity which is the backbone of the smart city we can say because through there may be well ICT, infrastructure etc, but if there will be no electricity it will not going to be work. In Pasighat East Siang is there from where the electricity supply can be regular if dam will be made in the Siang River.
