Government targets Rs 1.3 lakh crore from rail, telecom assets

印度政府计划通过出售铁路和电信资产，筹集1.3万亿卢比

NEW DELHI: The government is targeting half its asset monetisation target of Rs 2.5 lakh crore from railways and telecom

新德里：印度政府资产货币化的目标为2.5万亿卢比，其中一半将来自出售铁路和电信资产

In the Budget, finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced a massive asset monetisation initiative after the government had failed to move on the path for several years, prompting Prime Minister Narendra Modi to set an ambitious target, which has to be met over the next three to four years.

此次预算，财政部长西塔拉曼宣布了一项大规模资产货币化计划，此前几年印度政府在这条道路上失败了，这促使莫迪设定了一个必须在未来三到四年实现的雄心勃勃的目标。

Asset monetisation and privatization are the two key focus areas of the 2021-22 Budget, which aim at bringing about a complete shift in the economy to make it more efficient, and provide space for the private sector to help in the recovery.

资产货币化和私有化是2021-2022年预算的两个重点领域，旨在实现经济的彻底转变，提高效率，并为私营部门提供复苏的空间。

Following the PM’s push, NITI Aayog has been tasked with preparing the roadmap and also given the mandate to tie-up with ministries. After deliberations with ministries and departments it has fixed a Rs 90,000 crore target for the railways, seen as a laggard, with a focus on modernizing stations and launching private trains.

在总理的推动下，国家转型委员会承担了制定路线图的任务，并被授权与各部合作。经过与各部门的讨论，定下从铁路领域筹集9000亿卢比的目标，重点在车站现代化和推出私人列车上。

Separately, telecom towers owned by state-owned loss-making BSNL and MTNL — again, in the pipeline for years — and their optic fibre infrastructure are proposed to be monetised to mop-up around Rs 40,000 crore.

另外，亏损的国有电信运营商BSNL和MTNL拥有的电信塔以及它们的光纤设施已被提议货币化，以筹集大约4000亿卢比的资金。

If congress did nothing as sanghis claim, where are these assets coming from which the govt is selling to fill its coffers ?

如果国大党什么都没做，那这届印度政府为了填满国库而出售的资产从何而来?

Very good well done Modi keep selling India to your friend's carry on until people of india kick you out of power

莫迪会把国家卖给他的朋友，直到印度人民把他赶下台

Quhesobi

Unfortunately, Feku, aka Surrender Modi, is trying to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Even if some of our assets are not in a good shape, we still need to put a fair price tag on them. On top of that, Feku and his gang of Double A (Ambani and Adani) must be banned from bidding for our assets.

不幸的是，莫迪想要杀鸡取卵。即使一些资产状况不佳，我们仍然需要给它们标上合理的价格。最重要的是，我们务必禁止莫迪及其团伙(安巴尼和阿达尼)收购我们的资产。

This lady does not fit the job of the finance minister. Someone sensible needs to be handed over this portfolio.

这位女士不适合担任印度财政部长。这个职务应该由明智的人来担任。

Iqbal S Kapasi

on one hand modi says Congress did nothing for 70 years, but selling off assets created by Congress. Shame Shame.

一方面，莫迪说国大党70年来什么都没做，一方面又出售国大党创造的资产。无耻。

BJP does not know how to run the economy.

BJPs survival depends on pleasing their corporate masters.

印度人民党的生存取决于企业老板。

Jay Boro

Asset monetization? why don't you directly called it "sale of public properties"?

资产货币化?

为什么不直接说“出售公共财产”呢?

Joseph Sathish

whatever was saved after independence is being spent in last 10 years. so when will u start saving again.

独立后存下来的钱都在过去10年花光了。什么时候再开始存钱呢?

Desh Ke Aage Kuch Nahi

This Gov't on paper says a lot of things, but on ground they have just been making Indian economy puppet of few corporate companies. Indian Rupee is at all time low, Unemployment is at all time high, Fuel prices and Inflation has skyrocketed, Relationship with our neighbouring countries is at all time low and we say Modiji has failed, Bhakto ki sun lo bhai Acche din aa gye hain

这届印度政府说了很多，实际上他们让印度经济成为了少数公司的傀儡。印度卢比一直处于低位，失业率居高不下，燃料价格飙升和通货膨胀加剧，与邻国的关系一直很差，莫迪失败了

Common Man

They will sell everything and siphon money in the name of infrastructure development. They will make country bankrupt.

他们会以基础设施发展的名义卖掉一切，吞掉资金。他们会让国家破产。

Bvrsi Kudka

India’s richest man Mukesh Ambani has become doubly richer within the first four years under the Modi government. Between 2014 and 2019, his wealth more than doubled –from about $23 billion to $55 billion. This means that Mukesh Ambani accumulated more wealth in the five years of BJP rule than all the wealth he made and inherited in the entire 58 years of his life before Modi became Prime Minister.

在莫迪政府执政的前四年里，印度首富穆克什·安巴尼的财富翻了一番。

从2014年到2019年，他的财富翻了一番，从230亿美元增加到550亿美元。

这意味着穆克什·安巴尼在人民党执政的5年里积累的财富，比他在莫迪成为总理前58年里积累和继承的财富还要多。
