Gurgaon: MCG has terminated three contracts amounting to over Rs 81 lakh in Ward 27 and debarred the contractor from participating in tenders for the next two years for allegedly failing to commence any of the allotted projects.The projects include the laying of water supply and sewer lines near Friends Colony, construction of a sump well at Vinayak Plaza and Jyoti Hospital, and installation of a new motor pump set and panel at the Civil Lines boosting station.Official records show that all three projects were awarded to a single contractor, but despite receiving the work orders, the agency did not initiate execution on the ground. Following repeated delays and non-compliance, MCG terminated the contracts through separate orders issued between April and May 2026.Over the past few months, the corporation has terminated seven other contracts involving agencies engaged for sewer cleaning, storm-water drain desilting, water supply works and sewer infrastructure projects.“We have debarred these firms for two years besides terminating their contracts. For the works related to desilting of stormwater drains and sewer lines, we have already floated the tenders and in some cases, the work orders have already been assigned. I have given them the deadline to complete these works by June-end,” said MCG executive engineer Sandeep Dhundhwal.The first of the three contracts to be scrapped was a Rs 40.6 lakh project for laying water supply and sewer lines in front of a showroom in Friends Colony. This was followed by the cancellation of a Rs 34.8 lakh contract for installation of a new motor pump set and panel at the Civil Lines boosting station. A third contract worth Rs 6.08 lakh for construction of a sump well at Vinayak Plaza and Jyoti Hospital was also terminated recently.MCG officials said the debarment was intended to send a strong message that contractors awarded public works would be held accountable for failure to commence projects within stipulated timelines.
