Dharmanagar: A road construction project in Dharmanagar has come under scrutiny after local residents raised concerns over alleged irregularities in the quality of work, demanding a transparent investigation into the matter.
According to residents, questions have emerged over the standard of work carried out under a project costing approximately Rs 15.64 lakh, with some alleging that the quality on the ground does not match the funds allocated. Discussions have also surfaced in local social and political circles regarding the role of certain individuals and contractors linked to the project, though these claims could not be independently verified.
A resident, speaking to the media, said the administration must examine the matter thoroughly and place transparent information about the project’s cost, quality, and actual progress before the public.
No official investigation report has been released so far, and no court or administrative authority has issued any findings against those named in connection with the allegations.
With public money at stake, residents have called on the concerned department to ensure accountability and take prompt corrective action. The department’s response is awaited, and it remains to be seen what steps the administration takes to address the concerns raised.
