After much criticism from the public, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation recently awarded a contract worth Rs 6,080 crore for the purpose of concretising roads in the city. However, Mumbai Regional Congress Committee President MLA Varsha Gaikwad has pointed out that even after 10 months of awarding the contract, work on most of the contracts has not yet started.
Gaikwad expressed her anger and frustration at the government for not being able to provide citizens with basic needs and instead filling the pockets of contractors. She also accused the Shinde-Fadnavis-Pawar regime of doling out tenders to its contractor friends without any dialogue with the public representatives.
Gaikwad went on to demand that strict action be taken against the municipal authorities and the contractors be blacklisted immediately. She also suggested that the administration should recover the entire penalty amount and file a case against the contractors.
Under the leadership of Varsha Gaikwad, the Mumbai Congress is now gearing up for the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections. Gaikwad has promised that the Congress would take up the issue of road scams in Mumbai and work towards providing citizens with better services.
