The United Kuki Liberation Front (UKLF) has urged contractors within its jurisdiction to maintain quality while implementing developmental works under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana.
While briefing the media persons at Nazareth Camp, Muvanphoi in Chandel district today, H Mangboi Thadou, Assistant Project Director of UKLF said that all the contractors and sub-contractors who are implementing developmental works in the operational area of UKLF should strictly follow necessary guidelines and maintain quality of the work.
He further said that the decision was taken after the report of incomplete and sub-standard works executed under the previous PMGSY 7 & 8 phase by some contractors in collusion with some Government officials after deducting 10-20 percentage from the contractors was brought to the notice of the outfit.
Citing an example of incomplete works taken up under PMGSY, a road stretch from Pallel to Aimol Khullen Village in Chandel District was left uncompleted after withdrawing the final bill of the work by the contractors in collusion with some officials.
Further, he warned that if any contractors and sub contractors fail to abide by the guidelines of the organisation while implementing developmental works particularly PMGSY, the organisation will take up stern action against the particular contractors or sub contractors.
Moreover, the outfit has also urged all officials concerned not to issue final bill to any contractors and sub-contractors before completion of the works or executing the works without maintaining quality to avoid inconveniences.
