Prime Minister sets target for infra sector

20 Jun 2016 Evaluate

Following NITI Aayog’s sectoral presentations to Prime Minister Narendra Modi last Month, which highlighted sluggishness in many infrastructure areas, Narendra Modi has set targets for infrastructure sectors and the same has been communicated to ministries of railways, roads, ports, civil aviation and others, with detailed timelines. Modi has set targets with an aim to step up infrastructure investment and speed up execution and said that the targets are to be delivered by end of the financial year to effect visible change on ground.

Prime Minister has identified 26 action points under 12 heads for roads and 36 action points for railways under about a dozen heads that need quick action by ministries to implement them in a time-bound manner.  These will now be regularly monitored by NITI Aayog and reviewed by the Prime Minister himself on a quarterly basis.

Under the targets set, the Indian Railways has been asked to increase the total lines commissioned from 7-8 km per day to 10 km per day by financial year 2016-17 and 15 km per day by financial year 2018-19. Modi has asked the ministry of road transport and highways to finalise highway network expansion and operations plan for next three years by September this year, while accelerating the rate of construction of roads in the North-East by six months to November 2016. Modi has also asked the ministries for roads and finance to speed up finalisation of PPP renegotiation framework and public contracts bill by September 2016.

Similar targets have been set for others as well, such as the number of villages that have to be electrified where the deadlines range from three months to up to three years for different key actions. Further, some big-ticket interventions including raising long-term funding for road projects, developing a contractor rating system that would incentivise early project completion, bringing about organisational reforms in Indian Railways, improvement in governance structure by setting up an independent regulator to correct tariff imbalance in railways.
