Senior officials of the Singapore government recently praised Sahara India Pariwar, and termed the group’s hill city township Aamby Valley as ‘ideal smart city’. This happened during the two-day visit to Singapore by Upendra Rai, CEO and Editor-in-Chief of Sahara News Network.

“Any tourist will be amazed by seeing the Aamby Valley City planned and developed by the chief Subrata Roy’s Sahara India. In this hill city, not only the basic facilities have been presented in the modern form, but the highest ideals of environmental protection have also been followed,” Rai said.
In his address, Upendra Rai also praised the scientists working under the guidance of the Government of Singapore, and said that despite the limited availability of water resources, the country’s researchers have done a great job for the whole world. “A large country like India should adopt the Singapore model to solve problems related to water crisis,” Rai said.
