Though several major roads in the city are in a pathetic condition, the tender floated by MC to recarpet them is yet to be finalised. The Municipal Corporation’s e-tender worth Rs 21.96 crore for recarpeting of roads, markets and streets has been hanging fire for long. In the technical evaluation of this e-tender, the Tender Committee of the Municipal Corporation had disqualified two major firms. On disqualification of firms, a complaint was lodged with the Local Bodies Department. Now, the department has written to the Municipal Corporation asking it to negotiate with the firms to increase savings.
