Strategies
33.5.1
Public-
Private
Participation
The funding share of of ULBs in the city has to be decided on the basis of functions
performed by the respective agency, e.g. JS for all water supply and sewerage related
works. Projects relating to roads and transportation are decided on the basis of
jurisdiction of the ULB (MCA/ ADA) where these would fall (Tables 96-97). Table
98 indicates fund requirement for priority projects split into (i) first 2 years, and (ii)
rest 4 years of phase 1.
From the total share required from ULB/ parastatal agencies the share of MCA, JS,
ADA and other parastatals will be as follows :-
Based on expected distribution of funds its drawn that MCA is mainly
responsible for Urban renewal components of the city development alongwith
the ADA. MCA is responsible for storm water drainage, solid waste
management with PPP.
For the total sewerage and Drainage works in the City MCA and JS and JICA
are agencies for execution of the project. Since partly sewerage is funded by
the external aid and that can be managed as ULB’s share for sewerage and
drainage work in the city.
Other parastatal like PWD, UPSRTC, Railways, ADA and JS shall be
responsible for the balance project works. Bridge Corporation will be mainly
responsible for construction of roads over bridge, RUBs, flyovers and for
development of multilevel parking sites for the city (Table 99).
On the basis of discussions held with stakeholders, including those at the State and
the officals of the ULB/ parastatal agencies, several projects can be pursued with
public-private participation (PPP). Private investments for the purpose of
infrastructure development in the city shall contribute towards the share of the ULB/
parastatal at the city level.
PPP is a partnership between the public and complementary sector for the purpose of
delivering a project or service which is otherwise traditionally provided by the public
sector (ULB/ parastal body). The response of stakeholders in the City to PPP
initiatives has shown that the MCA can now choose between various cost effective
models involving PPP to upgrade the quality of basic services and other urban
amenities in the City of Allahabad. PPP is a strategic alternative that follows
principles of best sourcing.
Projects identified for coverage through PPP are as under –
Multi-level parking
Solid waste management
Street cleaning/ sweeping
Southern bypass
Bandh road
Heritage buildings (including illumination, and sound and light programs
Maintenance of City parks
