The Pune Municipal Corporation's (PMC) Water Supply Department is under investigation over allegations of inconsistencies in the technical evaluation of two tenders for water pipeline maintenance and repair in Prabhag 15. Amol Ramnath Pardeshi, a Nationalist Youth Congress Pune City office-bearer, accused officials involved in the technical scrutiny of making questionable decisions.
Pardeshi specifically targeted BSK CONSTRUCTION, which was declared eligible in one tender but disqualified in another due to insufficient experience. He requested a detailed comparison of the contractor's experience certificates, work orders, and technical evaluation sheets submitted in both tenders. Concerns were also raised about the identity of one of the bidders, with discrepancies noted between the tender summary and meeting minutes.
Pardeshi questioned the methodology used for calculating the bid capacity of ICON ENTERPRISES, citing a discrepancy between a certificate and the final calculation. He also questioned the disqualification of PRAJWAL ENTERPRISES for not disclosing ongoing-work liabilities, urging uniform application of this criterion. Pardeshi demanded a thorough examination of the roles of junior engineers, deputy engineers, and technical scrutiny officials, and called for a halt to the tender proceedings until the inquiry is completed.
