Passionate About India: Why the public-private partnership model has faile...:


On hindsight, everything may seem good; but then, a deeper scrutiny reveals how PPP projects are getting stalled and delayed. What get missed in the larger picture are the latent problems that are getting accumulated beneath the surface. No doubt, the PPP model has constructed numerous state-of-the-art infrastructure projects, but they are still inferior in comparison to the output that developed nations have been achieving through the same model. The inherent curse of red-tapism and power struggle between different agencies as well as between the private sector and government are looming threats for the prospects of the Indian PPP model. Add to this, the inevitable scenario of corruption and resultant artificial price hike of the resources that are gradually making PPP an unviable business model.
