Road left dug up in Sector 21, Chandigarh MC officials get show-cause notice
A day after negligence was detected at a construction site of a road gully in Sector 21, MC commissioner Anindita Mitra has served a show-cause notice to the sub-divisional engineer (SDE) and junior engineer (JE) of the public health division of MC for dereliction of duty.
The road gully work was awarded to contractor Vakeel Yadav, who had left the road dug up without putting up any kind of sign board around the area for cautioning the public, posing a hazard. A city resident had earlier tweeted pictures of the site, which was also covered in darkness.
The show-cause notice was issued under Rule 10 of the Punjab Civil Service (Punishment and Appeals) Rules, 1970, to SDE Rajbir Singh and JE Bhupinder Singh. The contractor will also be issued one, it was directed.
