Responding to questions raised on the civic body’s efficiency in assigning the work of preparing the Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the waste-to-energy plant in Chandigarh, the Municipal Corporation Chandigarh on Thursday stated that Thapar Institute of Technology did not respond to several calls made to it on its number for the Request for Proposal— adding it will produce screenshots of call records.
The civic body in its general house meeting on July 29 had allotted the work of preparing the DPR to IIT Ropar, which has agreed to undertake it at a cost of Rs 26.77 lakh, after Punjab Engineering College quoted Rs 80 lakh for the task, while no response was received from Thapar Institute of Technology.
