Power project delayed
Jharkhand Bijli Vitran Nigam Ltd (JBVNL) on Wednesday floated a fresh tender for an integrated power development scheme in Singhbhum electricity supply area after the 265-crore contract with IL&FS was scrapped recently.
Now, JBVNL will not be able to complete work under the scheme within the March 31 deadline, which would have led to better power supply in non-Tata Steel command areas.
“The new agency that will bag the contract will have to complete the work left unfinished by IL&FS,” JBVNL general manager-cum-chief engineer Arvind Kumar said.
