Sample Solution

In this context, the idea of studying and comparing two projects of the Government i.e. Metro Bus service, a subsidized service, primarily aimed for the poor masses, and the M II-Motorway, a project initially thought of catering for the elite would be fascinating to compare two government projects aimed at entirely different socioeconomic segments of society and identifying the similarities with reference to creation of public value and if the projects would be viable enough to sustain the same in longer run.

Therefore, the statement of the problem here is:

“Motorway Project M-II and Metro Bus service are government projects aimed at providing fast transportation services to the general public. However, while one was initially and even today touted by some to be another unneeded facility for the rich and elite, the Metro Bus project has generally been hailed as a governmental achievement regarding its service to the under privileged masses. Ironically both the projects have been conceived and executed by the same political government but during different tenures. In this context, it is very interesting to compare and critically evaluate both the projects with reference to creation of public value. My research would try to find the answer to the question if two similar government projects aimed at different segments of society can manage to create public value in terms of its classic definition. If yes, how can that be sustained in the longer run, and if not, then I would try to explore the reasons thereof.
