Feeling delighted.My Points.#SmartCity
1. Intercity public transport (may be Green transport). Boot away the Ageing Minibus
2. Local job creation. Though this city contributes to a large number of IT workforce in India we needs more own development centre
3. Development of Durgapur Railway station to Worldclass levels. Introduce regular flights to Delhi/Mumbai. Kolkata flight is a waste of money.
4. Relocate some Govt level Headquarter to Durgapur so that people come and economy picks up.
