Kalyan-Dombivli Municipal Corporation (KDMC) has blacklisted road contractor M/s Bharat Udyog Ltd for one year due to recurring poor quality work in pothole repairs in Dombivli’s F Ward. The civic authorities withdrew the work assigned to the contractor, accusing them of negligence despite multiple instructions to maintain proper road maintenance standards.
The decision was made in the context of monsoon repairs, when the KDMC had directed contractors to ensure motorable roads and proper condition, especially during Ganeshotsav when public movement was high. Most wards managed repairs well, but the contractor's negligence in F Ward became a concern, particularly as roads see heavy traffic during festivals.
The KDMC's action was communicated to the contractor through a notice on October 1, 2026. Residents have welcomed the decision, emphasizing the need for accountability in public road maintenance.
