BBMP chief commissioner directs officials of BESCOM, BWSSB and BMRCL to complete development works in time-bound manner

The chief commissioner said that the water board has to complete the drinking water supply work to each household swiftly and the BESCOM should also complete the work pertaining to the laying of 11KV underground wire. “Roads damaged due to metro construction need to be fixed immediately. Also, some localities get water-logged after receiving rains. Moreover, we have to begin asphalting work on some stretches like NICE Road to Meenakshi temple on Gottigere Road and Weavers’ Colony,” the BBMP chief commissioner told the officials.

In areas with damaged roads, jurisdictional officers were directed to review the Defect Liability Period (DLP). “If DLP is there, contractors concerned should be asked to take up road repair. If the DLP has lapsed, the damage control work should be taken up by the BBMP,” Gupta said.
