    Good decision and implementation. All Govt Contract/ jobs should be awarded to professionally managed Public listed Companies so that accountability and efficiencies are maintained. All the best

    It would appear that since the Belagavi Administration has for all these years Unable to solve the drinking water problem & woes of the general public, it is now in a helpless solution of handing over the contract of water supply to a private firm as L&T. So give this scheme a try and Hope for the BEST…….

        I think handing over essential services guaranteed by the Government to private agency in the name of efficiency and accountability reveals inability of government machinery and extra burden on consumers.
