Chhattisgarh halts major construction projects due to pandemic

In view of the circumstances arising in the state due to Covid-19, the Chhattisgarh government has halted the construction work of all major projects with immediate effect and also decided to take more stringent measures for practising austerity amid the pandemic.

The state government instructed all departments on 26 April that, like the previous year, austerity should be exercised in the financial year 2021-22. Now, on the instructions of Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel, major construction works in Nava Raipur have been stopped with immediate effect.

In this regard, extending the measures already being taken, the construction of the new Raj Bhavan, Assembly House, CM House, Ministers and Senior Officers and New Circuit House in Nava Raipur has now been stopped with immediate effect. The Chief Engineer of Public Works Department has issued orders to the concerned contractors to stop the construction work of these structures. The bhoomi pujan of these works had been done on 25 November 2019.

Along with this, previously issued tenders for the construction of the new Assembly building in Sector-19 have been cancelled with immediate effect.
