Infrastructure & Inclusive Growth General Perception: India with over 1.2 billion people has a
serious problem of infrastructure and this will be an impediment to generate growth, particularly Inclusive Growth.
24
Infrastructure - 1
Hard Infrastructure:Transportation (Road, Rail, airports,
seaports etc)Energy ( Power, Natural Gas, Coal mines,
petroleum etc)Water Management (Drinking water,
sewage, irrigation etc)Communication (Postal, Phones, TV/Radio
etc 25
Infrastructure - 2
Soft Infrastructure:Social ( Education, Healthcare, Social
Welfare etc)Industrial ( Manufacturing, SEZ etc)Institutional ( Financial system,
Information Technology, Governance etc)
26
World Bank & Inclusive Growth
The inclusive growth program is inspired by the World Bank's mission to help developing countries alleviate poverty
27
Critical areas
The role of the Government would be to provide:
An honest and transparent administration, enactment of appropriate laws and the resources and the infrastructure that will make it possible for the weakest Indians to receive the benefits of economic growth
28
Role of all stakeholders Every stakeholder namely the
Government, bureaucrats, the public sector, private sector, NGOs, media and civil society, has not only a role to play but has to treat it as a challenge,
to achieve the vision of the founding fathers and other leaders.

The MFI business focus is to provide small loans to the poor and needy
Private MFIs get funds from banks at a low interest rate and offer loans to those living below the poverty line at rates substantially cheaper than money lenders
49
Microfinance -1 It is one of the great
success stories in the developing world in the last 30 years and is widely recognized as a just and sustainable solution in alleviating global poverty.

Microfinance -2Many Private sector MFIs now tend to be
more profit oriented and wealth creation vehicles for their promoters.
Commercialization of Microfinance in India as news reports suggest has the central government now planning to put in place a ‘Regulator’ in the microfinance space.
