Seeking to develop the infrastructure sector in India, Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia has urged multilateral development banks like the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and others to come up with innovative ways that will enable domestic debt to be raised and invested in infrastructure development in the country.
While addressing an event, Ahluwalia said, India needs institutional arrangements that will mobilise all domestic savings and transform them in the long-term debt which is rupee denominated and the institutions like ADB can play a very useful role making available funds for infrastructural projects.
For the 12th Five Year Plan (2012-17), the government has set $1-trillion investment target for the infrastructure sector. India is seeking greater funding from institutions like ADB to meet its infrastructure requirement, half of which is likely to come from private players.
