This policy document provides  a brief background and guidelines on the implementation of the Public Private Partnership (PPP)  in infrastructure development proposed by the Government of Assam.

The objectives of this policy are to:

The Gujarat integrated township policy by the Gujarat Urban Development Company (GUDC) (Government of Gujarat) has been designed towards promoting the development of townships with high quality built in environments and services with reliable infrastructure.  This has been done by the Gujarat government with the aim of attracting investments in knowledge based activities and businesses, especially IT based businesses, in a manner that directly benefits the youth of the state. The infrastructure is planned to be zero impact in terms of waste management and self sufficient in terms of facilities for education, health and other aspects of social welfare

It is proposed that the development of integrated townships be done through private, market initiatives. The Government’s role will be to support and facilitate the market operations and regulating it only to the extent required to realise public policy objectives. The proposed ‘Township Policy’ aims to provide a framework for ensuring that this happens in an efficient manner in predefined areas for township development.

This  policy document by the Government of Orissa outlines the draft infrastructure policy designed to promote development of the state of Orissa. The policy promotes private sector participation through provision of guidelines for private investments in infrastructure.

It encourages public private partnership, and provides a broader institutional and legal framework for implementation of projects through cross sectoral perspective.

In view of this scenario, and the housing shortage and budgetary constraints of both the central and state governments, the policy highlights the need for promotion of public-private partnerships to reach its goal of Affordable Housing for All.

The National Environment Policy (NEP) by the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) aims at mainstreaming environmental concerns into all developmental activities. It emphasises conservation of resources, and points that the best way to aid conservation is to ensure that people dependent on resources obtain better livelihoods from conservation, than from degradation of the resources. It argues that environmental degradation often leads to poverty and poor health outcomes among populations.
