Chandigarh MC officials had said that IIT Ropar will submit the detailed project report and request for proposal on solid waste processing plant project by September
The beginning of the work on upgrading of the beleaguered solid waste processing plant is set to get delayed further.
The officials of the municipal corporation (MC) had earlier maintained, and in the General House meeting as well, that the Indian Institute of Technology, Ropar, would submit a detailed project report (DPR) and the request for proposal (RFP) on the project by September. But now the officials concede that the report is expected to be submitted at the earliest in mid-October or by October-end.
The DPR and RFP are to be tabled before the MC General House, which, as per MC’s earlier plan, was to be done in the September meeting. Now, this is likely to be moved to the October-end House meet. The process of floating the tender and inviting firms for the project is likely to take another month after October, that is if the House approves the DPR and the RFP.
