Contractors being denied payment despite completing projects: Mehbooba

Srinagar, Apr 1: PDP President Mehbooba Mufti has said that contractors across Jammu and Kashmir are being denied payment despite completing projects.

She has appealed the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to intervene into the matter. Mehbooba posted on X, “Contractors across J&K are being denied payment despite completing projects. As it is they have to secure huge loans from banks to fulfil tender conditions. Yet despite completing work on multiple projects their payments are being withheld under one pretext or another thereby causing great distress to these families. Not to forget Eid too is just around the corner. Request @manojsinha_ ji to intervene.”
