Stating that tenders pertaining to 41 works of Hubballi Electricity Supply Company (HESCOM) have been floated in violation of norms, the North Karnataka Civil Contractors Association has urged Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to annul the process and call for fresh tenders.
President of the association Subhas Patil told presspersons in Dharwad on Tuesday that they have already submitted a memorandum in this regard to the Chief Minister and sought action against the officials who are responsible for floating tenders in violation of norms.
Mr. Patil said that HESCOM’s conditions for prospective bidders have resulted in discrimination while awarding contracts and there is no level playing field.
