Navayuga gets Dec 31 deadline to complete highway works: Karandlaje

Udupi: Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP, Shobha Karandlaje on Monday informed that Navayuga Infra has been directed to complete all works including Kundapur flyover and other works relating to national highway by December 31 failing which the government will initiate legal action against the company.

Responding to a query on the bad state of the national highway and the pending works Karandlaje informed that they had held a meeting with Navayuga company representatives who have assured of commencing work after the end of the rainy season.

Pointing out that the contract for national highway works had been awarded to Navayuga before BJP came to power in the state Karandlaje said that the government had extended financial support to the company when they stopped the highway works citing financial crunch. However they have yet again stopped the works, she added.

If the company fails to meet the December 31 deadline the government will take suitable action, she informed.
