PONDA: Ponda MLA Lavu Mamledar said he would demand an enquiry into the sopo tender of Ponda Municipal Council (PMC) in the forthcoming assembly session.
Addressing a news conference, Mamledar stated that while PMC had increased sopo rates from Rs 5 to 20 per sq mtr, the tender for the auction for the current year was about Rs 61 lakh.
“This amount has remained the same as compared to the auction in 2012, when the sopo rate was Rs 3 per sq mtr. Though the sopo rates are hiked from Rs 5 to 20 per sq mtr, the sopo tender bid has not been changed or not increased proportionately,” Mamledar said.
