Hi friends,
In my point of view, both public and private sectors playing an important role in the economic and social development of our country. But their approach differs. Private sectors are mainly concentrated on profit making where as public sectors are service oriented along with profit making.
All that we need to do is to adapt the quality of work, importance to customer service and technology from private sector organisations. In my point of view, privatization of public sector should not be done. If privatization takes place the trust and sense of belongingness of public which public sector has developed all these years will be in doubt.
Thank you.

Hello everybody,
In my opinion our economy, The Mixed is best one, where both private and gov sectors are parallel players. It gives consumers a large vivid options to get served as per his own needs. For eg, in telecom sector, we have large number of options, if you priority is low cost go for BSNL, if your priority is fast services go for rest of networks.
So in my view, public sectors should not be converted in private but private players should be allowed to invest in public sector, What is the problem if on tracks of Indian railway few more trains of Tata and Amabani will run? Let customers decide whether they have to go on government trains or private.

In country like India which socio ethical country it should not happen, because privatization leads wider gap between rich and poor, rich becomes richer poor become poorer. India is a country with complex situation, when rich become richer and talents come forward.
Yes of course economy will improve, what what happens to HDI index India is country with larger poor population they need to come up in life if privatization happen this will never happen which in turn makes India a low rate income country, just analyse it in wider, don't just talk from what you see the situation in metropolitan cities, metropolitan cities contribute just 10 to 15% of population.

It is better to privatised all the government sector unions. Because almost all the company is running in losses. Proper administration is not there in all those companies. And all the company not showing their real profit they are showing at loss. If it is privatised all company will run on profit, the debts of our country will be reduced and India would become a developed country. And increase their production and increase employment opportunities. And there is a chance of much new company starts in India and many employees. Since it is public all are not working sincerely if it is privatised all will work properly and India can move a step ahead. Jai Hind.

Hi friends,
According to me, the public sector should not be privatised. This is not good for the development of our country.
Let's take an example=suppose that our Indian railway has privatised then in the case of war, we may face problem due to it. As the main moto of private companies is to earn more and more money as possible. Then they may refuse to help the government for transportation of goods, soldiers etc.
If the public sectors are privatised then any person would be unemployed due to the lackness of knowledge or anything. Then this will lead to more criminal activities in our society.
So in this way, public sectors should not be privatised.

Public sector to private sector is a big loss to the nation of the people.
Because the reason is all profit or loss goes for private sectors or private companies, this is the direct loss of income to the government. And government always think welfare of the people and the society so once its get privatized companies will always think about how to make make money in this way product cost get increased but Indian people purchasing power is less to buy those product then what is the use of privatization or if the government sector converted to private sector so what is the service to the people this question is to the people who elected from the public.

According to my opinion, The Public sector does not need to be privatized as talking about the services of both sectors that no doubt private sectors are good in eyes of their customers for their services but think about the middle-class peoples who cannot able to afford the cost of services by private sectors. Let's see that the same services are also given by public sector but we are not gaining those services just only because of our negligence in gaining our right "Right to know". If we collectively find the alternatives solutions and take some steps and help the government then public sectors will be a far better than private sectors.

Yes I agree with you you all, in Public sector Organizations workers have a fixed job and get a fixed salary. Also they having some allowances with it. The reason for Public sector should privatized because by having a few reasons such as lack of Skilled Management, improper Vision on Production and lack of quality I their work, without having a good vigilance network on their activities it leads to corruption.
By doing privatization we can have good trained employees we can utilized them in proper way, prevention of corruption and doing fair business and without having obstacles on decision making and implementation of new ideas. etc..

I agree that privatization of any sector increases competition thus promotes better customer sanctification and better services, but there are certain sector which can't be privatized. Like can we privatize defense sector or water supply department?If we privatize water supply each competitor will establish its own pipeline and customer will be distributed and definitely price will increase. So lot of infrastructural issues and other problems which will impact us by emptying our pocket. So we can't privatize every sector and so government has to keep certain powers in their hands so as to keeping the inflation in control.

Not up to all PSUs, some are doing well and others going under loss. So point here is lack of technology in our country, present pursuit of tech is from others countries. So if we can somehow manage PSU get partially privatized it will give immense effects to technology and profit management (bringing ample tenders from the market is possible through privatization in the coming world of aggregators). The employees from public sector should work with utmost responsibility. The Middle class won't get Job recruitment unless it's through govt competitive examination because recommendations are more valid in private sectors.
