India being a developing country is growing economically at a rapid pace. This growth is manly

seen in Urban India, but majority of the people in rural India still have to struggle for their basic needs.

Due to the lack of economic gain in villages people are migrating to big cities in hope for a better

future, but ultimately not being skilled these people have to live a hard life in the cities

and tend to get involved in criminal activities increasing the crime rate of the cities. Intersate

and cross-state migrations are effecting the growth of the cities and of the country.

Poor planning strategies have led to a large amount of resources being wasted on

infrastructure that is not actually helping the villages. Most of the time is spent on

assumptions and planning wrong things at the wrong place e.g. setting up a school in a

region least accessible for the villages.

The aim of the paper is to see the techniques implemented in smart cities like real time

data collection, data management, optimization of resources, using the technology in

connecting the people together and providing data so that the city behaves and functions

like one body. Using such strategies in context with the rural environment and to observe

if such strategies make a difference, as the success of these strategies would not only

affect the villages but affect the country as a whole.
