Delhi Cabinet Minister Gopal Rai on Monday held a review meeting with the MCD officials and directed them to meet the RWA representatives to enquire about the complaints lodged by the residents and work to resolve them as soon as possible.
During the meeting, Rai said that there is a need to audit the stadium work at the Tikona Park independently because several complaints on this matter were received. Earlier also MCD sent two show-cause notices on the same issue to the contractors but no response was received, he said.
Rai said, “I have received various complaints regarding the construction work of the mini-stadium which is being built at the Tikona Park. Taking cognizance of these complaints which clearly show that substandard materials were used in the construction I have directed to hold a third-party audit on this matter.”
During the meeting, the Corporation officials said that because of the irregularities in the construction work, they had already sent two show-cause notices to the contractor. However, the officials also said that despite these notices the contractors are not following the rules and mentioned guidelines. Rai directed that immediate action should be taken and the matter should be thoroughly probed.
