Power Mech Wins Mumbai Monorail O&M Bid
Power Mech Projects Ltd won the bid to take care of Mumbai's monorail.
They offered Rs 296.4 crore, which was less than Adani's Rs 308.4 crore.
The monorail isn't running yet, but the city hopes this change will fix technical problems.
Before, a group of companies managed it, but they didn't do a good job.
Now, one company will handle everything to make things better.
Power Mech Projects Ltd won the bid for Mumbai monorail operations and maintenance with a Rs 296.4 crore offer.
Adani Infrastructure Management Services Ltd was the runner-up with a Rs 308.4 crore bid.
The monorail is not yet operational, but the decision aims to reduce technical issues.
Previously, a consortium of Scomi Engineering and Larsen & Toubro managed the monorail, but was canceled due to poor maintenance.
The shift to a single contractor is expected to improve coordination and reduce malfunctions.
