Patna requires urgently, modern solid waste management system;
world class power distribution establishment; 360 degree drainage and sewerage system;
water supply management; roads with traffic control management and playgrounds
and parks network. There are a lot of other things which are desirable but these
above mentioned requirements should top the town planning manager list. The
question is what already exists in a city of more than one and half million
dwellers? A city, where one cannot fetch a 1000 sq feet flat in less than 30
lakhs (I know that is lowest). Can anyone justify this irony? The demand supply
economists will too have hard time explaining the elasticity of Patna property market and the prevailing infrastructure.

One explanation that crops up is that the lists which we
floated of desirables in Patna are all in public domain and the property rates
completely lie in private domain. If one buys this argument than the gap
between public and private sphere in Patna is amazing or say out of the world.
One of the small and posh (kindly allow me to use this word) colony of Patna is
Nageshwar Colony. It is situated by the side if Patna Women’s College and consists
of only two roads connecting Boring Road to P&T colony in Kidwaipuri. The
rate of older properties; properties older than 5 years; too is minimum 5000 sq
ft. Location is no doubt central Patna and the commercial hub of Boring Road is
stone throw away distance. Here only the justification to use the word POSH
ends. The rest in infrastructure terms is “à¤à¤—वान à¤ौरेसे ”. Surprisingly,Nageshwar colony resides even central ministers. Glaring example of the gap between
public and private domain!!!! Now whoever is reading this article can count
numerous such colonies in Patna; no awards for that!!! Awards will be given if
one colony in Patna can be highlighted where the infra and prices go hand in
hand. Patna will not even qualify as “Adarsh Gram” on many infrastructural
issues; one wonders.
The current situation therefore points out to opportunities
which are unimaginable. The city can produce millionaires (in dollar terms) at
the rate which can beat Silicon Valley. The only requirement is that the public
domain be opened to citizens of Patna to operate as private players. All these
functions with we started with can turn into million dollars profitable
business; if government functionaries withdraw from them.
