| Abstract | Urbanization is a rampant phenomenon, and cities are dealing with the crisis of overpopulation—causing a dearth of resources, environmental degradation, and inequalities. Social and economic imbalance among the citizens is one of the main problems in cities. The emergence of the smart city concept to tackle these diverse challenges is necessary and important, particularly to strive for balance among the citizens’ needs and environment, as it is known to address urban sprawl, social inequalities, unplanned urbanization, and city management. This paper is a systematic review that reflects on the smart city concept and planning, intending to identify and analyse the definitions and concepts of smart cities, their components, and the importance of sustainable design and development for the Indian context. The following methodology for the systematic review—(i) identification, (ii) eligibility, (iii) screening, and (iv) analysis—is adopted and further contextualized to infer the underpinning relevance for developing nations, such as India, and specifically its north-east region. Apart from offering a bird’s eye view of the various focus areas, within sustainable smart city development initiatives, which are prioritized, ignored, or given less importance; the key finding from literature is the lack of adequate implementation and strategies for geographically challenging, hence, economically underdeveloped, yet resource rich and culturally diverse regions of the global south, akin to the north-east region of India. This paper contributes to a larger body of research intended to develop sustainable smart city planning, design, and implementation support for the north-east of India, in line with the initiatives of the Govt. Of India. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. |
