    Most of the developing countries across the globe face infrastructure challenges. The critical challenge that developing countries faces are of resources and too of financial resources. Either they are short of finances or they are not provided in-time budget which causes main damage to the infrastructure development. The major aim of these countries is to improve their citizens living standard which can be facilitated through the infrastructure development. However, in order to cope with these challenges, governments often work in BOT projects with private firms in which the infrastructural projects are build, operated and then transferred. Nevertheless, in Pakistan, the trend is increasing of the same in which projects are constructed on the model of BOT but is not useful as it is in some of the other countries. There might be certain elements which needs an overhauling but do the implemented projects have achieved success or are they failure. This is where the existing study plays its due part as it aims to measure the critical success factors which plays their part in BOT projects. This study will also go on to understand the future of BOT projects in Pakistan as existing study aims to conclude the findings with the help of Ring Road project constructed in the heart of Pakistan, Lahore. Being one of the major yet important cities of the country with major influx of people from within and outside the country, Ring Road Lahore project is a major indication for other BOT projects across the country. Once the critical success factors identified are studied, their results are clearly mentioned in the analysis chapter. Lastly, the study is concluded by giving useful contributions to the literature along with mentioning the future directions for scholars and researchers interested to pursue similar avenues.
