What Is Privatization
Types of privatization
Privatization is of three types as given below:
privatization in India
Privatization in India goes by name of disinvestment or divestment of
equity. This is because privatization has thus for not meant transfer of
control or even of controlling interest from government to anybody
else. The govt. has sold stakes ranging from one % to 40% PSUs, but in
no company has its stake fallen below the magic figure of 51% which
is seen as conferring controlling interest.
PRIVATIZATION AS BOON
Privatization comes with many benefits; it shows many positive changes in
Indian economy as follows:
Examples:
The private sector has done more than expected. India's software industry is
world class industry. It is having second largest growth rate after china.
Indian manufacturing has finally become competitive; exports have
grown by over 30% annually for three years. Indian companies are
making foreign acquisitions galore and becoming MNCs - Tata Steel,
Bharat Forge, Tata Motors and Ranbaxy are a few examples
The need of second green revolution is being energized by the private
sector, not the public sector. Reliance has led the charge into rural
areas in Punjab with a farm-to-fork operation - managing the chain
from seeds and crops to processing and hypermarket sales. ITC is
rapidly expanding its e-choupals, computerized kiosks for farm
information and for buying produce. The Mahindras, Tatas and
Shrirams are setting up rural supermarkets.
The government developed the idea of deficiency payments for roads,
with the contract going to the bidder requiring the lowest toll subsidy.
But now some bidders are willing to pay a fee rather than demand
subsidies

Privatization of education
In India privatization of education sector is best example of privatized
sectors. According to current estimated data, 80% of all schools are
government schools making the government the major provider of
education. However, because of poor quality of public education, 27% of
Indian children are privately educated.
People prefer private sectors because they want quality education. Even the
poorest often go to private schools despite the fact that government schools
are free. A study found that 65% of schoolchildren in Hyderabad's slums
attend private schools and private schools provide superior results than govt.
schools. Pupil-teacher ration is much better in private schools than in govt.
schools. But main disadvantages of privatized govt. schools are that they are
very expensive and everybody can’t afford them. And the second main con
is that by determining the education priorities, not according to our national
needs but to those of a minuscule minority of blood-suckers.
