The contract of Section 1 was given to a contractor for Rs. 65 million. About 25% of work has been completed yet and only Rs. 3 million have been issued to the contactor after a delay of several months.

45% of work has been completed in the section 2, contract of which was given for Rs. 1.75 billion. However, remaining amount of Rs. 27 million is yet to be paid to the contractor.

Finance Wing has been delaying the payments and a contractor has given notice to the CDA for the closure of work until the dues are paid.
