• 18 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the projects that are implemented by REA cover the markets completely. They do not target schools and boreholes only. I am aware of places where connections are done as and when it is necessary. view
• 18 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, REA carries out prequalification procedures. They then get contractors on labour and transport basis. The materials are procured by REA itself. With regard to contractors who do not do a good job, the contract terms are applied. So, where there is impropriety, we investigate. However, generally, contractors who are chosen are able to do their jobs unless the hon. Member has some contrary information. view
