Section two discusses the approach taken by the government, the key element of which was 'carrying all stakeholders along'. The next section discusses the design of the program: a phased approach with all the essential building blocks like the legal and institutional structures, a social safety net program, a good communications strategy and factoring in environmental issues through audits upfront. Section four and five discuss the implementation arrangements and the definitions of reforms respectively. Section six documents the achievements and progress of the program under phase one and two in the last seven years. Section seven discusses the implementation issues
  challenges faced during various stages of the program and the government's response to the same. The last section concludes with a review of key challenges going forward.
