Opposition leader Devendra Amberkar said that the contractors have bid almost 78% below estimate cost of the work.As the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation was planning to outsource the task of maintaining the open spaces, which it is planning to take over from the private parties, it has come to light that As the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation was planning to outsource the task of maintaining the open spaces, which it is planning to take over from the private parties, it has come to light that contractors have offered very low bids for the upkeep of other plots in the city.“If such contractors are given the job, how will they carry out the work at such low prices Their works would be highly questionable,” said Mr Amberkar. This has again raised question marks over the quality of maintenance works of city open spaces.According to civic officials, the civic body had issued tenders for the maintenance and development of 152 playgrounds and open spaces across the city for a period of three and half years.55 % below the tender amount.“If that is the case, what’s the use of BMC taking over these open spaces ” asked Susieben Shah from the Malabar Hill Citizen Forum, which manages the Priyadarshini Park.The lack of manpower has already forced the BMC to outsource the task of maintaining the 216 open spaces, which were given on 13 PCS CANVAS BAG SET the previous adoption policy and whose agreement is expired.. The civic body is planning to issue tenders to appoint contractors for the maintenance of these plots. “In a way, they are again resorting to privatisation of these plots,” she said.Taking objection to this, the Congress has written to BMC commissioner Ajoy Mehta, asking him to cancel the tenders. The BMC has received bids in the range of below 62 to 78 percent from 19 contractors for these works. In H-East ward, for example, the contractor has quoted 59.
