The sustainable city defined as environment designed to focus on minimizing environmental negative impact, promoting economic viability, and enhancing the social well-being. The sustainable cities include the uses of renewable energy sources, energy-efficient infrastructure, and the reduction of carbon emissions. These cities prioritize resource efficiency through waste reduction, recycling programs, and sustainable water management. So the environmental responsibility, economic feasibility, and social inclusivity is crucial for the successful development of sustainable cities. In this case study, we have attempted to summarize the methods, their effectiveness, achievements and failures that the city is facing day by day.
