## ANSWER

THE MINISTER OF ROAD TRANSPORT AND HIGHWAYS

(SHRI NITIN JAIRAM GADKARI)

(a) to (d) In order to augment budgetary support with the objective of facilitating faster pace of development of National Highway network, participation from the private sector is found to be necessary. A road project involves construction and tolling risk. To harness the support of  private  sector,  depending  upon  the  risk  appetite  of  the  private investors, whether they are willing to take construction and/ or tolling risk, a number of PPP modes have been devised. These modes include BOT(Toll),  BOT(Annuity),  HAM,  ToT  etc.  The  mode  of  delivery  of  a project  is  decided  keeping  in  view  the  size  of  the  project,  financial viability,  capacity  of  the  bidders  in  the  segment  and  the  overall financing plan. With the assistance of these schemes, the Ministry has been able to achieve a construction rate of 37 km per day and in the period  2014-2021,  the  NH  network  has  increased  from  91,287  km (March, 2014) to 1,39,299 km (present).
