abstract="The importance of the private sector in bridging the resource gap in investment and improving the operational and managerial efficiency in the transport sector is widely recognized.  The Government of India is actively pursuing policies to promote private sector involvement  in order to address capacity constraints and deficiencies  in the existing transport infrastructure.  The private sector involvement is also sought in the development of transport infrastructure and services.

The paper provides a broad overview of government policies and various initiatives that have been undertaken to promote private participation following various models.  Also discussed are achievements made in different subsectors and some conclusions are drawn of major policies and initiatives by the Government.<p />",
