KATHMANDU, April 28: The Sudurpaschim Provincial Office of Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) in Attariya has initiated the process of  terminating contracts with six construction companies due to the delay in work progress of transmission lines and substations.

Issuing a notice on Sunday, the NEA Provincial Office announced to terminate the contracts due to the halt in work by the contractors. The notice states that despite repeated written requests, the contracted companies failed to advance the work related to the transmission lines and substations, prompting the decision to terminate the agreements.

The companies facing contract termination include Tarupare Construction Services, Sunita and Kabita Construction, Bhagwati Construction, Sakun Engineering Construction Services, RB Construction, and Niglasaini Construction.

The NEA Provincial Office has granted these companies a seven-day ultimatum to appear with reasons, if any, for not terminating their contract.
