深度:私人玩家会成为雄心勃勃的BharatNet项目的救世主吗?

根据一份报告，Bharti Airtel、Reliance Infratel、STL、Cisco、Larson & Toubro和Hughes Communications等40家公司对BharatNet项目的这一阶段表现出了兴趣。

深度:私人玩家会成为雄心勃勃的BharatNet项目的救世主吗?

开启政府雄心勃勃的项目BharatNet，提供互联网与农村腹地的连接，可能会让这个拖延已久的项目进入快车道。

私营部门预计将带来更快推出所需的效率，此外还将以负担得起的价格加强农村腹地的服务质量和消费者体验。

不断增长的数据消费加上随之而来的大流行，创造了无缝互联网连接的需求。除了提供商业机会，这将确保农村学生不被剥夺他们的学校教育。据报道，在过去的一年里，农村地区的数据消费增长了400%。

为了减少印度社会的数字鸿沟，BharatNet是政府最大的赌注。

背景故事
BharatNet，早些时候命名全国光纤网络该计划由团结进步联盟(United Progressive Alliance)政府于2011年启动，本应在几年内全面实施。最初的计划是通过光纤连接25万克的村务委员会。

但由于各种结构、后勤和其他问题以及巨大的成本超支，该项目已被推迟。根据Bharat宽带网络有限公司(Bharat Broadband Network Ltd .)的数据，到目前为止，光纤已经铺设了132,600个GPs，连接覆盖了104,298个GPs，其中只有65,074个是活跃的。BBNL）.

BBNL, under the communications ministry, was created as a special purpose vehicle to roll out the optical fibre network.这个项目正在由BSNL铁路、铁路、电网和最近的公共服务中心都参与了该项目的运营和维护。

In 2011, the then central government had said that the project to connect all the 2.5 lakh gram panchayat (GP) would be completed within the next two years.This was pushed to December 2015.According to experts, between 2011 and 2014, there was hardly any work done in the project to lay down the optical fibre.With the new government in 2014, the project was renamed BharatNet with a target to connect 250,000 GPs by 2018.But since then the deadline has been pushed ahead multiple times and the new deadline has been set for 2023 with the revised targets under PPP model.

专家认为，除了与电力部门工作执行有关的问题外，缺乏规划、跨州路权问题是造成延误的原因。

“BharatNet自成立以来一直在苦苦挣扎。我们知道CAG最近关于CSCs劣质工作的报告。让私人参与者参与进来是朝着正确方向迈出的一步。然而，政府必须确保私营部门有足够的动力来完成公共部门近10年来未能完成的任务。如果没有对私营企业的商业激励，这是不可能的，”电信专家、ComFirst创始人马赫什•乌帕尔(Mahesh Uppal)表示。

公私合作(PPP)模式

The government in July this year approved the PPP model for Bharatnet.BBNL代表电信部(DoT)邀请全球招标，包括通过公私合作伙伴关系(PPP)模式在16个邦的9个单独套餐中创建、升级、运营和维护以及使用BharatNet，特许权期为30年。

This came after the Cabinet approved a viability gap funding of Rs 19,041 crore for the implementation of BharatNet project through PPP model.目前该项目的总支出为611.9亿卢比，其中包括2017年批准的420.68亿卢比。这将使BharatNet的扩展和升级能够覆盖所有Gram Panchayats和有人居住的村庄。

该项目将覆盖大约36.1万个村庄，包括喀拉拉邦、卡纳塔克邦、拉贾斯坦邦、喜马偕尔邦、旁遮普邦、哈里亚纳邦、北方邦、中央邦、西孟加拉邦、阿萨姆邦、梅加拉亚邦、曼尼普尔邦、米佐拉姆邦、特里普拉邦、那加兰邦和**等16个邦的Gram Panchayats。政府最近扩大了其范围，连接了该国所有有人居住的村庄，约64.3万个村庄，包括全科医生。横跨这16个邦的现有BharatNet网络将成为该项目的一部分。

PPP模式是由电信监管机构推荐的火车way back in 2016 when the project was facing hurdles.Citing internet connectivity as the most crucial element of Digital India, TRAI had suggested the PPP model to ensure maintenance and marketing and usage of the mega infrastructure.

对于私营部门参与Bharatnet项目，专家们的态度模棱两可。

TR Dua总干事TAIPA表示，PPP模式是电信行业关键基础设施的创新举措。“It will bring in the efficiency required for the faster rollout of BharatNet Project besides leveraging the private sector expertise and capacities for hastening the success of digital India.”

Bharti Airtel鼓吹他的依赖、STL、Cisco、Larson & Toubro等休斯通讯据一份报告显示，有40家公司对BharatNet项目的这一阶段表现出了兴趣。

Primus Partners联合创始人兼董事总经理Devroop Dhar表示，修订后的PPP框架将带来更好的结果，因为它将带来创新的利用和创收模式，以确保可靠的宽带连接在有时间限制的情况下到达每个村庄。

杜瓦说，PPP模式还将意味着私营部门为消费者更快地部署、降低关税、提高效率和使用新的创新技术。

“连接最后一英里并不容易，尤其是在农村地区。在私营部门参与的同时，必须有一定程度的资金以及大量的业务和战略灵活性。不幸的是，政府程序缓慢，特别是涉及到公共事业单位的工作人员。人们会期望私营部门有自己的商业动机，加快行动，完成拖延已久的BharatNet项目。”

路权(RoW)仍然是个挑战?

RoW批准一直是BharatNet实施的主要障碍。尽管电信部、邦政府和BBNL签署了协议，以促进在该项目下铺设光纤的“免费”RoW，但在实施阶段出现了一些问题，导致了延误。在此之前，大量的州没有通知RoW策略。

根据TAIPA的数据，目前有30个邦和联邦属地已经通知了RoW政策，其余的政策正在处理中。

达尔表示，由于RoW和相关的许可是一项主权职能，私人机构在基础设施项目中面临延误。“这是中央/邦部门之间多变而复杂的程序、收费和征税不统一以及获得森林部、铁路和国家公路局批准的结果。这些因素影响全国塔和光纤的规划和部署，以及项目的可行性。邦政府需要以精简和有时限的方式为私人合作伙伴提供便利。”

印度-宽带用户

根据TRAI的数据，截至今年5月31日，有线宽带用户为2274万，而移动宽带用户为近7.59亿。在这两个细分市场中，用户大多位于城市地区。BharatNet aims to reduce this digital divide and provide internet connectivity to the nook and corner of the country.

随着疫情导致数据消费上升，印度通过高速互联网连接起来，以确保没有数字鸿沟，这一点至关重要。据报道，在过去的一年里，农村地区的数据消费增长了400%。BharatNet是印度在疫情期间为人们提供平等机会的最大赌注。

Opening up the government\u2019s ambitious project BharatNet<\/a>, to provide internet<\/a> connectivity to the rural hinterland, may put the much delayed project on a fast track.

The private sector is expected to bring in the efficiency required for the faster rollout, besides strengthening the quality of service and consumer experience with affordable tariffs for the rural hinterland.

The rising data consumption coupled with the ensuing pandemic has created the need for seamless internet connectivity. Apart from giving business opportunities, this will ensure rural students are not deprived of their school education. According to reports, the data consumption in rural areas has increased by 400% in the past one year.

<\/div><\/div>To reduce the digital divide in Indian society, BharatNet is the government\u2019s biggest bet.

The back story
<\/strong>
BharatNet, earlier named National Optical Fibre Network<\/a>, was started in 2011 by the United Progressive Alliance government and was supposed to get fully implemented in a few years. The initial plan was to connect 250,000 gram panchayats (GPs) via optical fibre.

But the project has been delayed due to various structural, logistical and other issues along with huge cost overruns. Till date, optical fibre has been laid in 132,600 GPs, connectivity made available in 104,298 GPs, out of which only 65,074 are active, according to data from Bharat Broadband Network Ltd (BBNL<\/a>).

BBNL, under the communications ministry, was created as a special purpose vehicle to roll out the optical fibre network. The project is being executed by BSNL<\/a>, Railtel, Power Grid and recently Common Service Centers was roped for operations and maintenance for the project.

In 2011, the then central government had said that the project to connect all the 2.5 lakh gram panchayat (GP) would be completed within the next two years. This was pushed to December 2015. According to experts, between 2011 and 2014, there was hardly any work done in the project to lay down the optical fibre. With the new government in 2014, the project was renamed BharatNet with a target to connect 250,000 GPs by 2018. But since then the deadline has been pushed ahead multiple times and the new deadline has been set for 2023 with the revised targets under PPP model.

<\/div><\/div>Experts attribute the delay to lack of planning, right of way problems across states apart from issues pertaining to execution of work by PSUs.

\u201cBharatNet has been struggling since inception. We know of recent reports by CAG on the shoddy work done by CSCs. Involving private players is a step in the right direction. However, the government will have to ensure that there are enough incentives for the private sector to do the task which the public sector has failed to do in almost a decade. It is impossible without a commercial incentive for private players,\u201d Mahesh Uppal, telecom expert and founder, ComFirst said.

Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model<\/strong>

The government in July this year approved the PPP model for Bharatnet. BBNL, on behalf of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), has invited global tender for the development including creation, upgradation, operation and maintenance, and utilization of BharatNet through the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model in nine separate packages across 16 states for a concession period of 30 years.

This came after the Cabinet approved a viability gap funding of Rs 19,041 crore for the implementation of BharatNet project through PPP model. The total outlay for the project is now Rs 61,109 crore including an amount of Rs 42,068 crore that was sanctioned in 2017. This will enable the expansion and up-gradation of BharatNet to cover all Gram Panchayats and inhabited villages.

The project will cover an estimated 3.61 lakh villages, including Gram Panchayats (GPs) across 16 states such as Kerala, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Assam, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, Nagaland, and Arunachal Pradesh. The government recently expanded its scope to connect all the inhabited villages of the country, or about 6.43 lakh villages, including GPs.The existing BharatNet network across these 16 states will become part of this project.

The PPP model was recommended by the telecom regulator TRAI<\/a> way back in 2016 when the project was facing hurdles. Citing internet connectivity as the most crucial element of Digital India, TRAI had suggested the PPP model to ensure maintenance and marketing and usage of the mega infrastructure.

Experts are equivocal in hailing the involvement of the private sector in the Bharatnet project.

TR Dua Director General TAIPA said the PPP model is an innovative initiative for critical infrastructure in the telecom sector. \u201cIt will bring in the efficiency required for the faster rollout of BharatNet Project besides leveraging the private sector expertise and capacities for hastening the success of digital India.\u201d

Bharti Airtel, Reliance Infratel<\/a>, STL, Cisco, Larson & Toubro and Hughes Communications<\/a> are among the 40 companies that have shown interest in this phase of the BharatNet project, according to a report.

The revised PPP framework will deliver better outcomes as it will bring in innovative utilization and revenue generation models to ensure reliable broadband connection reaches every village in a time-bound manner, Devroop Dhar, MD & Co-Founder, Primus Partners said.

Dua said the PPP model will also mean faster deployment, reduced tariffs, increased efficiency and use of new and innovative technologies by the private sector for consumers.

\u201cIt\u2019s not easy to connect the last mile especially in the rural places. A certain level of funding and a lot of operational and strategic flexibility must accompany private sector involvement. Unfortunately government processes are slow especially when it comes to staff of PSUs . One would expect the private sector to have its own commercial incentives to move faster and complete the much delayed BharatNet project,\u201d Uppal added.

Right of Way (RoW) still a challenge?<\/strong>

RoW approvals have been a major hurdle in the implementation of BharatNet. Despite the agreements signed between the Department of Telecommunications, State Governments and BBNL to facilitate \u2018free\u2019 RoW for laying optical fibre under the project, a number of issues came up in the implementation stage which led to delays. Earlier, a huge number of states did not have notified RoW policies.

Currently, 30 states and union territories have notified RoW policies while the rest are under process, according to data from TAIPA.

Dhar said since RoW and related clearances is a sovereign function, private parties have faced delays across infrastructure projects. \u201cThis is a result of variable and complex procedures across Central\/State departments, non-uniformity in fee and levies, and obtaining approvals from Forest Department, Railways and National Highway Authority. These factors impact planning and roll outs of towers and fibre across the country, as well as project viability. The state governments need to facilitate RoW to the private partner in a streamlined and time bound manner.\u201d

India \u2014 Broadband subscribers

<\/strong>As per data from TRAI, the wired broadband subscribers stood at 22.74 million subscribers at the end of May 31 this year compared to mobile broadband base at almost 759 million subscribers. In both the segments, subscribers are mostly located in urban areas. BharatNet aims to reduce this digital divide and provide internet connectivity to the nook and corner of the country.

With the pandemic causing rise in data consumption, it is critical that India is connected via high speed internet to ensure there is no digital divide.According to reports, the data consumption in rural areas has increased by 400% in the past one year. BharatNet is the biggest bet for India to give an equal opportunity to people during this pandemic.

\"In-depth:<\/figure>
But, Uppal throws in a word of caution as well saying the history of PPP projects in India is hardly impressive.

Let\u2019s wait and watch if private players are able to bail out the much awaited ambitious BharatNet project.
