The holy city of Varanasi, which also serves as Prime Minister Modi's constituency, has made a six-pillar plan, called the 'Smart-Kashi' plan, which has been submitted to the centre. The plan has been made so that it can ensure that it gets into the list of 40 smart cities which would be announced next month.
The six pillars of the plan are: Suramya (Picturesque), Nirmal (Pure), Surakshit (Safe), Smmunat (Improved), Ekatrit (Integrated) and Sanyojit (Planned).
