Currently, there are proposals for 16,000 apartments in the smart city, and it is expected to take up to 3 years to complete.

The hospital will provide residents with top-quality medical care without having to travel far. The five-star hotel will be built on mixed-use land.
The Future of Ranchi Smart City
The Ranchi MP, Sanjay Seth, has also suggested some ideas to make the smart city more appealing. He has recommended that the smart city should have a non-seizal and higher secondary school for children, so they don’t have to leave the city for quality education. Facilities like playgrounds, swimming pools, and tennis courts will also be available for children.
