After terminating the contract for south Mumbai’s road concretisation, the BMC has decided to call for fresh tenders and choose a contractor shortly. While former corporators have welcomed the move, they have also demanded more action against the corporator and in the tendering process.
The BMC had appointed the contractor for the concretisation of roads in South Mumbai on January 23 this year. However, no work has been started till today. Now, a new contractor will be finalised within three weeks for the contract worth Rs 1,687 crore.
