Need for the Course
The rapid economic growth of the country, in past decade, has put forth the urgent need of infrastructure development in order to sustain such a growth regime since India began to liberalize in 1991 almost all govt. policies tried to focus on rapid infrastructure development, which is regarded as one basic prerequisite for a better economic development trajectory for the country.
Various estimates suggests, that, India need to commit anywhere from U.S.$ 300-400 billion in next 5 to 7 years, if it has to sustain the demand created by rapid growth, which is roughly 12.5% of nations GDP per year. In order to create as well as to sustain such massive infrastructure development, the country needs a specialized and dedicated breed of human resources capital that is well trained in the emerging infrastructure spectrum.
The infrastructure spectrum, as it has emerged over the years, spends form very basic of services such as water, sanitation, roads, etc. to value added infrastructure such as airports. Ports, logistic hubs and their after leading to state-of- the-art infrastructure services which includes wireless communications, e-infrastructure, and optical fibre based networks.
