About this statute
The Act and regulations set up the Bihar Infrastructure Development Authority, give it powers over PPP projects and administration, and require annual reporting and government oversight. This provision sets service and conduct rules for IDA employees and gives the Authority and MD powers over staffing, contracts, leave, transfers, appeals, and procurement-related administration. The Authority gets broad powers over project clearances, directions, information gathering, inspections, and rule-making, while the Government and local bodies have duties and limits in project handling. The Government must provide certain support for Category II projects, and may give some guarantees and direct financial support only under stated conditions.
