India launched CRGSS — a govt-backed
credit guarantee covering 70% of lender
risk for smaller cities that can't access
infrastructure financing on their own.

Part of the Urban Challenge Fund (2026–31).

The goal isn't just projects.
It's making these cities creditworthy
enough to not need the guarantee next time.
