In a bid to complete the privatisation process of the Chandigarh electricity department, the UT administration will issue the bid document by November end.
A meeting in this regard was held here on Monday between UT officials, Union power ministry officials and transaction consultant Deloitte. Chairing the meeting, UT adviser Manoj Parida said, “The interests of serving employees of power department and that of consumers in Chandigarh will be protected.”
While the power ministry officials were insisting on administration issuing the bid documents by next week, the administration officials stated that greater clarity was required on a number of issues, so more time was required.
