Shivraj Singh Chauhan, chief minister of Madhya Pradesh, visited the city last week to see how a ‘smart city,’ like Amanora Park Township operates.The township, which has emerged as a privately managed one, is like a local body with a smart card for its citizens. “Amanora uses M2M2H (machine to machine to human) technologies in areas like safety (CCTV, biometrics, lift monitoring by BMS) water, power, gas and the sewage management, eco-friendly vehicles, parking access control and monitoring. Zero waste solid management and in-house cable/internet working are also available,” said Aniruddha Deshpande, managing director of City Corporation.

Deshpande also gave a presentation before Chauhan about the ‘smart city’ concept in general and with specific reference to Amanora. He also demonstrated the operated and monitored features of the smart city in Amanora’s high tech data centre.
