transfer from public to private control

The process when a government stops running a business or service and gives or sells it to private companies or people.

استعمال کا انداز: the privatization of [service/business/industry]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes say *"privatization for"* instead of *"privatization of"*. The usual pattern is **the privatization of [something]**, for example, *"the privatization of the railways"*. Another confusion is between **privatization** (a policy or process) and **privacy** (the state of being private and not watched).
