The NMC’s anti-encroachment
department had floated a tender eight days back to lift the scrap after
the scrap market was demolished or brought down by the owners. The last
date for filling up the tender was August 21, but the NMC has not
received a single bid yet. The civic body has decided to recall the
tenders within a deadline of seven days.

“After the scrap
market is demolished, there would be heaps of scrap which need to be
lifted. We had invited tenders for the same but no one came forward till
Tuesday. We have now decided to re-invite the tenders,” said deputy
municipal commissioner, R M Bahiram.After the scrap dealers
failed to meet the deadline of July 9 for removing their structures, the
NMC began preparations for evacuating them and has made a plan for the
same on paper. To avoid heaps of scrap from piling up, which may be used
by the dealers again, the NMC had decided to appoint private
contractors to lift the scrap. Tenders were invited through the local
newspapers eight days back.The officials said that they hoped
they would get a response after recalling the tenders. They added that
in case they don’t get the response, they will lift the scrap using
their own manpower.
