privatise

NEW DELHI: The Sports Ministry has sought a detailed proposal from the Central government about its plans to privatise premium sports infrastructure like the iconic Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium here.

As part of its agenda to monetise land and assets to meet the highest-ever divestment target of Rs 1.05 trillion, the government has announced plans to throw open Indian Railways’ heritage routes and stadia, including the JLN, for private sector investments.
