[[Pune]] Municipal Corporation (PMC) is on a list of 100 smart cities declared by the [[Government of India]] for development under the [[Smart Cities]] Mission. Pune's quest for better [[Urban area|urban living]] got a boost as it was listed among 100 cities selected by the Union Government of India. As a pre-condition, Pune will need to prepare a city-level plan of its own, which will be evaluated in the second stage of the competition based on a broad set of criteria. At the end, the Union government will select 20 cities that will receive funds for this financial year.<ref>[http://www.businesstoday.in/current/policy/list-of-98-smart-cities-released-by-govt-uttar-pradesh-tops-the-list/story/223177.html "List of 98 Smart Cities"], ''Business Today''</ref><br />
