The Government of India has adopted the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) over three decades ago as a tool to accelerate infrastructure development. Its revised National Policy 2021 seeks to boost private investments in Infrastructure across all sectors through PPP and Asset Monetization. Rajasthan state has been a pioneer in utilizing PPP as a strategy for infrastructure creation and economic development. GoR is in the process of updating its PPP Policy first made in 2008 based on its experiences over the past two decades. The revised Draft Policy has been published in Aug 2021. The objective is to identify strategies to enhance the dynamics of the PPP eco-system in the state to help attract private investment in infrastructure assets and related services to help their rapid and sustainable development. CMETAC has commissioned PDCOR Ltd ((A joint Venture company of Govt of Rajasthan established in 1998 to promote PPP Projects in the state) to conduct a study on PPPs in India and recommend a specific and implementable action plan that can be adopted suitably by the Government of Rajasthan (GoR).
