Build infrastructure to sharpen outsourcing edge, says the Indian P.M.
If you reflect on the recent statements emerging from the government echelons in India, you will be convinced that outsourcing ranks pretty high on the agenda for the government.
Look at the recent statement of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, for instance. Speaking at a conference on ''Building Infrastructure'', the Prime Minister said that the government is willing to pitch in to overcome the infrastructure deficit in India. He said that the government is finalizing a policy that will put the framework in place for a massive infrastructure improvement drive.
Quite rightly, Manmohan Singh identified the power sector as the major pitfall, and stressed the need to overcome the power crisis that is reigning in several parts of the country. India Daily quotes the P.M:
The bane of power sector seems to be the high transmission and distribution losses which account for almost 40 per cent of the electricity produced. No civilised society nor a functional commercial entity can sustain losses on such a scale.
