    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, honestly, we do not need the word “upwards” because the tenderer is always in battle with the procurement agency. The more money he makes, the better. So, if the tender is valid, we expect it to go higher. The reason I support the 12months is because we are also increasing the limit from 10 to 15. Variation is always used in the technique of tendering. Somebody deliberately tenders low to win knowing what clauses he will use in the Engineering, Procurement and Construction policy (EPC) to vary it upwards. Now, if you lock in for 12months, they have to be careful that there is a law on sustained period before they can bring the variation. They would have to be assessed in some other ways if they really deserve that variation. So, I support but there is no need to add the word \"upwards” because if it is downwards, it must have been a tender subject to evaluation."
