Rethink on premium highway restructuring
The C Rangarajan Committee, which was set up in October this year, made some key recommendations to be submitted to the Highway Ministry that include rescheduling of premium that road developers are liable to pay to the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) and some breather from penalty norms.
Rescheduling is prejudicial to the exchequer
As someone who has withstood the pressure from the infrastructure sector on the question of whether contract renegotiation should be adopted as a norm, Gajendra Haldea, Adviser to the Deputy Chairman of the Planning Commission of India minces no words.
National Roads & Highways Summit – Opportunities, Issues & Solutions
The Roads, Ports & Other Infrastructure Committee of PHD Chamber of Commerce & Industry organized the 'National Roads & Highways Summit- Opportunities, Issues & Solutions' on the 28th of June, 2013 at PHD House, New Delhi.
NHAI blamed for encouraging irresponsible bids
One of the reasons for companies like GMR and GVK walked out of big-ticket road projects is that the companies are over-leveraged, said Gajendra Haldea, Infrastructure Advisor to Planning Commission Deputy chairperson Montek Singh Ahluwalia. The bureaucrat's statement comes in days after infrastructure majors GMR and GVK walked out of road projects.
