Hi Amreesh,

Housing for urban poor is an effort to make Rajkot a slum-free city. RMC has approved 2 housing projects at an estimated cost of about Rs 140 crore. Which is under control. Rajkot is witnessing a good growth in real estate, thanks to the fast growing IT/ITeS sector and automobile industry. One may find a good number of independent houses and apartments by some prominent builders. Some of the prominent localities in Rajkot include Kalawad Road, Sadhu Vasvani Road, Rajya Road, Yagnik Road and Airport Road.

Hi Guys,

The 'Smart City' project envisages Rajkot as a 'Sensitive, Modern, Affordable, Robust Infrastructure and Technology Driven' city in future. Rajkot will free from slums, diseases, traffic problems, pollution, drinking water shortage and sort out other problems which stand as hurdles for the progress of the city. RMC has identified about 700 children in city who are malnourished and will be given adequate health and nutrition facility in the coming days. It will also conduct health check-ups of sanitation workers.

Hi Amreesh,

As per my knowledge, Rajkot is the fourth-largest city in Gujarat and one of the fastest developing cities in India. The city is famous for several industries including textile printing, casting and forging industries. The strategic location of the city makes it one of the leading industrial centers of Gujarat. There are several other factors that make Rajkot a fast growing city.
