The DEA had recommended that prior experience in related sectors must be considered, that any single bidder should not be awarded more than two airports to avoid financial risks and to promote comparison of performance. It also recommended that a license model be followed instead of a lease. The NITI Aayog too agreed with these recommendations. But to no avail. There were various anomalies even in the eligibility terms and conditions set by AAI for bidders. The whole exercise appeared intended to eliminate competition and favour the chosen few, or the Chosen One. According to available information and media exposes, in April 2018, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) directed the DEA and NITI Aayog to prepare a model mechanism for removing certain airports out of the control of the AAI and handing these over to private players. The new model concession agreement would take into account all eventualities, including real-estate development on airport land, which was the first indication that despite the objections of Airports Authority of India employees, the Modi government was adamant about going ahead with the airport privatisation plan. Media reports revealed that despite the Ministry of Civil Aviation being in the picture, the entire initiative was led by the PMO.

Two years after Niti Aayog, the government’s think-tank, unveiled a plan for district hospitals to be handed over to private healthcare companies to run attached medical colleges on a public-private-partnership (PPP) basis, at least five states have agreed to take up the idea. Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat and Meghalaya are now in the process of finding bidders for this project, a private advisory firm said in a report on medical education in India. The Aayog first came up with the idea in January 2020, just before Covid-19 hit, and later again urged states to adopt the project in 2021, in the middle of the pandemic.
