Sanguem Councillor Meshu D’Costa has questioned the Sanguem Municipal Council (SMC) for paying Rs 15,000 to the contractor to renovate the flag mast at the Sanguem Bus Stand.
D’Costa claimed that the replacement of around seven tiles at a whopping cost of Rs 15,000 could have been done at a cost of Rs 2,500-3,000.
D’Costa also questioned the rationale in fixing four different coloured tiles as against the existing white tiles all around the flag mast.
D’Costa alleged that the contractor may have used leftover tiles to replace the damaged tiles, which he claims is unacceptable and needs to be inquired.
The councillor said he had raised this issue with the SMC chief officer, and added that the chief officer has agreed to conduct an inspection and get the matter resolved.
