Скачать или смотреть EP #5 Risks & Concerns: Dholera SIR | Don’t Invest Before Watching this Video

Welcome to the final chapter of our exclusive podcast series on Dholera Smart City! In this episode, host Ankit Singh from State India sits down with Sanjay Bhamri ji to explore the risks and concerns behind one of India’s most ambitious urban projects.

Dholera Smart City, located in Gujarat, is India’s first planned greenfield industrial smart city. Spread over 920 sq km and integrated into the Delhi–Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC), it aims to attract global investment, create jobs, and promote sustainable, high‑tech development . But behind the big promises lie serious challenges that investors and homebuyers need to understand.

🎧 What We Cover in This Episode
• Execution Challenges & Delays: Building a smart city from scratch involves complex planning and coordination, leading to delays and cost overruns .
• Displacement & Social Impact: Land acquisition could disrupt local communities and cause social/cultural challenges .
• Accessibility & Affordability: As the city develops, the cost of living may rise, making access to “smart” services unequal .
• Data Privacy & Security: Smart city technologies collect vast data, raising concerns over privacy and security .
• Liquidity & Long‑Term Risk: Development has been slower than expected; selling land quickly is difficult, making it a long‑term investment .
• Limited Amenities Today: Schools, hospitals and markets are still limited; full infrastructure will take years .
• Legal & Title Risks: Investors must verify land titles and approvals to avoid disputes .
• Dependence on Government Policies: Shifts in political priorities can affect the project’s pace and success .
• Environmental & Social Concerns: The site is a low‑lying area prone to flooding , sparking protests from local farmers over land rights and livelihood . Critics also note that without a seaport and with investor withdrawals, it may struggle to become a global trade hub .

Our goal isn’t to discourage but to provide a balanced reality check so you can make informed decisions about investing in or supporting Dholera Smart City.
