Haryana PWD Contractors’ Association Warns of Agitation Chandigarh 24 January ( Ranjeet Singh Dhaliwal ) : The Haryana PWD Contractors’ Association has issued an ultimatum to the state government, giving them until January 31 to fulfill their pending demands. The contractors have warned that failure to meet their demands within this period will result in statewide protests and a complete halt of PWD projects across Haryana. In a press conference held at the Chandigarh Press Club, office-bearers of the association revealed that nearly ₹500 crore worth of contractors’ bills have been stuck since December due to budget and fund shortages. Despite repeated appeals to the Haryana PWD Minister, the government has not released the funds, citing a budget crunch. Association President Jai Bhagwan, Chairman Ashok Jain, and Secretary Manoj Chahal stated that releasing at least ₹200 crore immediately would help clear pending bills for October, November, and December of the previous year. They urged the government to release the withheld payments promptly to avoid forcing contractors to stop ongoing projects across the state. The association also highlighted other demands, including the implementation of a mechanism to prevent the issuance of tenders at exceptionally low rates.
