Infra story has derailed; coal must be privatised: Parekh

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 27 Februari 2014 | 21.03

On coal, Parekh was of the view that the government's monopoly on the mineral had to be broken, and that privatisation of the sector was a must. Without privatisation, coal imports would be a huge drag on the economy, he said.

Revitalising the infrastructure sector, and energy security will be key challenges before the next government, feels Deepak Parekh, chairman Housing Development Finance Corporation.

Speaking at the India Economic Convention 2014 in New Delhi, Parekh said the country's infrastructure story has derailed. He said the banking sector was under tremendous stress due to non-performing assets, with 11 banks having NPAs of around Rs 4 lakh crore.

He said the provision of Rs 11,200 crore for PSU bank recapitalization in the Budget was inadequate, and that the banking sector could not finance infrastructure.

On coal, Parekh was of the view that the government's monopoly on the mineral had to be broken, and that privatization of the sector was a must. Without that, coal imports would be a huge drag on the economy, he said.

Parekh was also in favour of the Railways being corporatised, and said there was a need for better inter-ministerial co-ordination for speedier decision making.

He said India needed to rank higher on ease of doing of business, and there was a need for clear and transparent policies.
