Lack of quality in CC roadworks alleged

Tandur:  Works pertaining to laying of CC roads in Narayanapur in the mandal are executed not conforming to the quality standards. In fact, CC roads have been sanctioned to the village under the NREGS and MLA constituency development programme. Rs 8 lakh has been allocated for laying the roads in the village. 

The contract has been awarded on the basis of nomination. Neither the Panchayat Raj AE nor supervisor ever visited the work spot. There are deviations from the estimated plan. Even as the road is being laid, at some places ditches were formed.  Panchayat Raj Divisional Engineer Venkateswarlu has threatened contractors to not clearing their bills if the works are said to be of sub-standard.
