Blueprint for Infrastructure in Gujarat 2020
(BIG 2020)
Chief Minister, Narendra Modi releases the BIG Document
The vision document envisages an investment of
Rs.11,80,912/- crores across 19 infrastructure
sectors in Gujarat State
Chief Minister, Narendra Modi released the BIG Document today in thepresence of the Minister of State for Industries, Mr Saurabh Patel and the
officials of the Industries Department.
The Vision of BIG 2020:
To make Gujarat a globally preferred place to live in and to do business
through accelerated, balanced, inclusive and sustainable growth driven by
robust social, industrial and physical infrastructure.
The Blueprint for Infrastructure in Gujarat 2020 (BIG 2020) is an integrated plan for the states
infrastructure development. The Gujarat Infrastructure Development Board (GIDB) undertook this
comprehensive planning exercise in consultation with all line Departments / Agencies of the State
Government and also the private sector. The consultancy services of CRISIL Infrastructure Advisory
Services was obtained by the GIDB to prepare this Blueprint. A key reason for Gujarats prosperity is
its holistic approach to infrastructure development. The implementation of BIG 2020 will further
improve the states already commendable infrastructure and provide a fillip to its economic growth. It
will accelerate Gujarats development process and envisions Gujarat with a per capita income in the
league of top fifty countries of the world. Ultimately, BIG 2020 is expected to have a deep social
impact and assure a better quality of life to Gujarats citizens.
The BIG 2020 has been prepared after detailed consultations in the backdrop of numerous
developments that present a large opportunity for Gujarat. The state has made impressive all-round
progress and its Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) has been growing at a compounded annual
growth rate of 10.4 percent, compared to 7.6 percent for India for the five year period 200207.

The BIG 2020 reflects the keenness of the Government of Gujarat to continuously think bigger, and
keep striving for more while capitalising on the opportunities being thrown up by various
developments at the national as well as at the state level. Substantial interest in setting up coastal
thermal power plants, setting up of the 4000 MW thermal power project at Mundra by the Tatas, 1.6
trillion cubic feet gas find in the K G Basin, development of Gujarat International Financial Tec-City(GIFT) -- a global financial and IT centre -- and the quantum increase in the number of Special
Economic Zones (SEZ), successful implementation of many Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects
across various sectors are some of the significant developments that reflect the widespread change in
the planning and policy environment. Developments like the USD 243 bn MoUs signed at the Global
Investors Summit 2009; 38 percent share of Gujarat in the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) and the
Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC); the proposed six Special Investment Regions (SIR) around
DMIC; and the relocation of the Tata Nano car factory to Gujarat present significant investment
implications for Gujarat, requiring infrastructural support.
The BIG 2020 outlines investments in infrastructure areas. The creation of infrastructure is expected
to attract investments in manufacturing and service facilities which will significantly increase
employment and per capita incomes. Gujarats five-pronged strategy Panchamrut comprising
knowledge, security, water, energy and power along with the BIG 2020 is expected to make
significant impact on the states human development index. The result would be all-round
development touching all citizens, including those living in the remotest parts of the State.
The Strategy in BIG 2020:
Gujarats economy today has reached a critical size which is strong platform to launch itself on an
accelerated and high growth trajectory. Gujarat will provide robust infrastructure that will form the
base for sustaining high growth. Robust infrastructure includes infrastructure that is benchmarked and
competing with the best in the world to provide a competitive edge for Gujarat to attract and sustain
investments in various sectors of the economy. The infrastructure will be reliable, well spread and
balanced to ensure that the fruits of development reach all in furthest corners of the state.
The framework of action for achieving the vision comprises of infrastructure sector visions, strategies
and a shelf of projects. These will guide the infrastructure sectors in an orchestrated manner
considering sector priorities and interlinkages with other sectors. The key strategies are:
1. Achieving UMI1 countries per capita power generation and consumption benchmarks by building
large capacities in power generation;
2. Making gas a preferred fuel across the urban and industrial landscape of Gujarat;

3. Accelerating industrialisation by developing world class and globally competitive industrial
infrastructure;
4. Developing seamless, efficient and high speed integrated transport networks conforming to global
standards;
5. Becoming a major international player in sea freight logistics;
6. Developing cities that are safe, efficient, clean and green, and offer a high quality of life;
7. Ensuring safe, reliable and affordable drinking water across Gujarat, and provide stable water
supply for agriculture;
8. Making Gujarat a global tourist destination;
9. Creating good healthcare infrastructure to achieve healthcare indices and to reach UMI
benchmarks;
10. Creating widespread network of educational institutions to make Gujarat a globally recognised
knowledge society;
11. Creating a network of post harvest agriculture infrastructure to ensure better access to markets.
The BIG 2020 will make Gujarats infrastructure the pride of its citizens and a benchmark for the
nation. People living in the farthest corners of Gujarat would have access to safe and affordable
drinking water, electricity, sturdy roads and telecom services. Substantial investments will be made in
securing energy, maximising growth opportunities, enhancing connectivity, managing growing
urbanisation, providing water for all and ensuring higher quality of life through employment generation,
health care and education. This high investment in infrastructure will sustain high economic growth
over the decade. All the three sectors of the economy will register sound growth with industries and
services growing in double digits and the agriculture sector recording consistent and stable growth.
The ultimate goal of BIG 2020 is to create robust social, industrial and physical infrastructure network
ensuring accelerated inclusive and sustainable growth. Rapid and balanced GSDP growth on the one
hand and investments in social services and upgradation of health, education and other critical
services on the other would ensure this objective is achieved.
This integrated infrastructure investment plan will ensure high investments in infrastructure, increase
productivity, expand the industries and services sector and hence propel Gujarats per capita income
into the league of top fifty countries of the world while making it globally preferred place to live in and
do business.
