A Business Today discussion examines whether private developers can monetise government land without triggering political, social and economic conflict. It compares airport privatisation and the Dharavi redevelopment project with large infrastructure schemes that need farmland acquisition. The discussion argues that successful projects depend on clearly defined land boundaries, fair compensation and government-backed planning. These conditions can reduce disputes and improve the chances of private participation, but the article does not provide a specific project value, timeline or policy proposal.
