Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) provides an opportunity for private sector participation in financing, designing, construction and operation & maintenance of public sector programmes and projects. The time has come to forge a greater interface between the public and the private sector in a wide range of activities in the country.
The Committee of Secretaries (COS) in its meeting held on 9th September 2003 under the chairmanship of the Cabinet Secretary, decided to constitute two Sub-Groups, namely (a) PPP Sub-Group on Social Sector, and (b) PPP Sub-Group on Infrastructure under the chairmanship of Secretary, Planning Commission.
