Mumbai: Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) cancelled bids related to the Metro Line 6 (Swami Samarth Nagar to Kanjur Marg), of rolling stock and fire safety tenders, on Wednesday. The decision was made as the tender documents failed to meet the mandatory guidelines instituted by the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC).
A senior official on the condition of anonymity confirmed the development. “While we have cancelled the bids, it will not delay the Metro Line 6 projects as we are going to float new tenders with standard conditions and policy within 10 days,” said the officer.
This has raised a question on the functioning of MMRDA’s internal departments.
