New Delhi February 20, 2014:-The Twelfth Five Year Plan (2012-17) has projected an investment of Rs. 55,74,663 crore over the Plan period in infrastructure defined to include electricity, renewable energy, roads & bridges, telecommunications, railways, mass rapid transit system, irrigation (including watershed), water supply & sanitation, ports (including inland waterways), airports, storage and oil & gas pipelines sectors. About 48 per cent of this investment is expected from the private sector.
In a written reply in the Lok Sabha today the Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs & Planning Shri Rajeev Shukla said though investments in social sectors primarily fall within the domain of the State Governments, some initiatives have been taken in various States to attract private investment in health and education sector. Since the subject is new, various models are being developed to attract private investment in the health and education sectors and it will take some time for the system to evolve. The Central Government has approved a scheme for setting up 2500 Model Schools under PPP mode to supplement the efforts of State Governments.
The sector-wise Eleventh Plan investment projections and anticipated investment during Plan at 2006-07 prices crore Rupees are as given below:
