At the core of the Challenge are citizens who will not only define the problems for which solutions shall be created but also help startups and cities to refine the solutions to meet their needs. The first edition of the Challenge focuses on digital innovation. Cities and startups will receive guidance to develop and test various solutions, learn from them, and scale them to build people's trust in public transport and enhance their mobility. The solutions will make public transport—formal as well as informal— safe, convenient, and affordable for all. Location - Pune 1 ēṅ BACKGROUND 02Public transport in Indian cities has become highly unreliable and undesirable. Further, growing incomes and expectations have lead to people shifting to cars, motorcycles, and taxis. In the last decade, bus ridership in metropolitan cities dropped by 20% on average. COVID-19 crippled public transport. But cars and motorcycles continue to grow, unabated. Streets are choked with traffic; the air we breathe is toxic.

BMTPC is in its 28th year of service to nation with a commitment to promote sustainable building materials and construction systems. In this journey of promotion of innovative systems other than conventional brick & mortar/RCC framed construction, BMTPC had to work really hard with rejuvenated efforts several times so as to bring paradigm shift in use of innovations in the construction sector. Also, with the launch of PMAY(U) in June 2015, the quest to bring innovative construction systems around the globe which can not only fast track delivery of quality sustainable houses but also comply with structural, functional and safety norms stipulated in Indian Standards gained importance. Further, in order to accomplish the ardent task of providing houses to each household by 75th year of independence under PMAY(U), the best construction practices which are time tested and proven elsewhere need to be identified, studied, evaluated & certified so that they can be straight- way transplanted to suit Indian geo-climatic conditions.
