Abstract
- The paper reviews a public-private-partnership (PPP) project-Karnataka Urban Water Supply Improvement Project (KUWASIP).
- Paper identifies lessons India and other developing countries can learn as they invite PPP in the urban water sector.
- A 24/7 water supply could reduce water usage because water is not wasted by consumers who throw away stored water.
- Management contracts are less likely to be opposed than privatization of water infrastructure.
- It is important that pro-poor policies be developed as well as implemented effectively.
