    Sustainable Infrastructure: A Case For Waste Water Management In Bengaluru.
    (National Law School of India University, 2018) Ashok, Sattvika
    This dissertation examines the dimensions of sustainability in the provision and delivery of urban infrastructure services in cities. By examining the role of regulation, institutions and financing, urban infrastructure governance is a policy challenge for the federal government system. The problem arises from the understanding that core infrastructure services like roads, water, electricity are not public goods in the puritan sense. Given the quasi-public good nature of them, it has economic, financial, environmental and social ramifications that are integral to sustainability. This study, in specific, delves into the landscape of the waste water management sector in Bengaluru through case studies. The research necessitates the need to holistic utility management approach in terms of costbenefit analysis and financial valuation to build a market around the reuse of wastewater thereby incentivising Public Private Partnerships in the effective and efficient delivery of services to minimize negative externalities.
