University NewsSummary: Infrastructure sector is a key driver for the Indian economy. The sector is highly responsible for propelling India’s overall development and enjoys intense focus from Government for initiating policies that would ensure time-bound creation of world class infrastructure in the country. Infrastructure sector includes power, bridges, dams, roads, and urban infrastructure development. Infrastructure is necessary for growth. It provides services that allow society to function and economies to develop, from transportation infrastructure to electricity-generation & hydropower facilities, and water supply and hygiene networks. Infrastructure is thus placed at the centre of efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Infrastructure should not be considered as a single asset, such as a power station, water, or hospital network, but rather as part of a system with a portfolio of assets that cumulatively have significant ability to accomplish the three spheres of the SDGs, i.e., economic, environmental, and social sustainability. – Reproduced
