EDITOR'S NOTE

Debasis Sarkar and Manvinder Singh present a comprehensive risk analysis framework for the elevated corridor metro rail project of Ahmedabad, India using Expected Value Method, Fuzzy Expected Value Method and Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process. The research findings indicated that establishing a monitoring system to minimize corruption in reconstruction projects, shared database for exchange information among organizations after the disaster, competencies and experience of managers and team members who are engaged in the reconstruction projects were the top three critical success factors. The paper also highlights the deteriorating condition of coal based thermal power plants in India on which our country majorly relies on for its power requirements and the area of renovation and modernization projects which could help in significantly improving the existing condition of thermal power plants in the context of cost and time.
