GADKARI’S HAM NATIONAL HIGHWAY SCAM | The NHAI project for six-laning 40.8 km from Azhiyur to Vengalam in North Kerala was awarded to Adani Enterprises for ₹1,838 crore. Adani then subcontracted it to Wagad Infraprojects, Ahmedabad for ₹971 crore. This deal deserves closer scrutiny. It seems like a match made in heaven, maybe a little too sweet. After all, @nitin_gadkari owns many sugar mills. But there is more to the story.
The BJP has brought in a new model of corruption through something called HAM, which we will explore in this thread. Nitin Gadkari is the one who introduced the Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM). Before this, most highway projects were awarded using two models: EPC and BOT. What are these, and how do they differ?
EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction): The government pays the contractor to design and build the project. Once the work is completed, the contractor walks away. EPC was widely used before the 1990s when the government fully funded infrastructure projects. It is still used in fully government-funded projects.
BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer): A private company builds the project, operates it (usually by collecting tolls) for a fixed number of years to recover its investment, and then hands it back to the government. BOT became popular in the 1990s to bring private investment into public infrastructure. However, contractors were often unwilling to take up routes that were less profitable.
HAM (Hybrid Annuity Model): This model aims to balance risks. The government pays 40 percent of the project cost during construction, and the remaining 60 percent is paid as fixed annual payments over a period of time. The company does not collect tolls. HAM was introduced by Nitin Gadkari in 2016 to speed up highway construction while sharing risks between the government and private players. (1/n)
