Punjab’s Public Works Department (Buildings & Roads) has awarded Kabir Infra Pvt Ltd the tender to carry out remaining work at the under-construction Halwara international airport in Ludhiana, AAP MP Sanjeev Arora said.
The firm will carry out works including the construction of internal roads, estate public health services and campus lighting at the Halwara airport, where civil work is in progress, the Rajya Sabha member said.
The work has been allotted to Kabir Infra Pvt Ltd for Rs 15,37,15,100, which is 2.7 per cent less than the tender price of Rs 15,87,14,658, he said.
The tender has been allotted under conditions such as that the work should be carried out as per the specifications of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways and that the instructions issued by the government or the finance department from time to time should be strictly followed.
The construction firm has been given five months to complete the work. The tender was allocated in the second week of April.
Arora said the state government would strictly ensure that there is no compromise on the quality of work. He said the project had been delayed in the past but was now in its final stages.
The MP said the government had already released Rs 50 crore for the early completion of the work at the civil air terminal.
