Second notice by contractors over 90,000cr unpaid bills
Pune: The state unit of the Builders' Association of India (BAI) has issued a second legal notice to state govt, demanding immediate payment of over Rs 90,000 crore in dues to contractors. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The association has given govt a 15-day ultimatum, warning that they would approach the Bombay High Court if their demands were not met. The reminder notice, dated July 2, was sent through BAI's legal counsel and addressed to the CM, chief secretary, additional chief secretary (home) and senior officials across 26 govt departments. The first notice, sent earlier this year, received no response. "Contractors have completed works and raised bills, which have remained upaid. Many have borrowed heavily from banks to complete govt projects and now face default notices. ..The financial stress is pushing several of our members to the brink of bankruptcy. We urge govt to release the dues without any delay," ," BAI said in a statement. The unpaid bills span a range of public works, from roads and bridges to irrigation and infrastructure projects, executed across state departments and local bodies. BAI members said as these dues remained unsettled, the state continued to float new tenders for infrastructure works worth thousand crores of rupees. —Nisha Nambiar

Two years on, just 27 of 84 white-topped roads ready in Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad: Two years into a large-scale push for white-topped roads in Ahmedabad, the numbers paint a troubling picture: 84 roads sanctioned, Rs 298 crore budgeted, and only 27 roads completed. But as of July 4, less than one-third of these projects have reached completion. Work on 28 roads is currently underway, while 29 are still awaiting a start. Monsoon-related waterlogging and repeated digging of freshly built roads have added to citizen frustration. The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) had set out to redevelop 84 stretches, covering 61.15 km, using white-topping — a technique considered more durable than traditional asphalt. You Can Also Check: Ahmedabad AQI | Weather in Ahmedabad | Bank Holidays in Ahmedabad | Public Holidays in Ahmedabad Of the total outlay, Rs 99.42 crore was approved for 22 roads, totalling 18.965 km in length — 21 of which have been completed. However, progress on the 62 roads sanctioned by AMC's zonal offices has been sluggish. Only five of those projects are complete, despite a cumulative budget of Rs 198.58 crore. Work is ongoing on 28 of these, while 29 remain untouched. Local councillors were asked to recommend which roads should be white-topped, but AMC officials said delays in preparing estimates meant several suggestions were excluded from the final white-topping project list. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Do you have a mouse? Play this for 1 minute and see why everyone is crazy about it. Play Game Undo Standing committee chairman Devang Dani reviewed the overall status on Wednesday. Dani said, "Instructions have been given to ensure work is completed on time." White topping has also faced pushback from residents in some areas. The raised level of such roads has worsened waterlogging during monsoons for lower-lying societies. There's also the issue of poor coordination. If underground lines aren't relocated in time, finished roads are dug up again. In one notable case, Gurukul Road in Memnagar — white-topped in 2023 — was excavated at least 10 times within a year due to water line leaks.
