Since, we are sure that we will get back from SSA after completion, I donot see any risks in expending another 20 K. However, I am not on top of the funds available in TMAD acct. Let Satya krishna / Prasanthi respond. Thank you. Regards, Ravi. On Sat, Jul 31, 2010 at 9:40 PM, harinath <harinathreddy@ gmail.com> wrote: Hi, here is the update. As the SSA engineer was not responding properly and the contractor who has done work till now is absconding from me, I met district collector yesterday. He spoke with S.E Mr. Bhojaraju and asked him to close it soon. Later i went to SSA office as they were calling me. SSA engineers now suggest to get the work done by another contractor but they are asking us to pay for the material cost for now. They say we debit the amount once SSA releases fund after work completion. The amount they are asking us to pay to new contractor is 20k. Actually work may cost around 30 to 50k. I am not sure of the actuals. They are suggesting to record the present work so that we do not pay extra to the new contractor. But on the other side, we have already incurred additional cost with the condition that we get it adjusted from the SSA funds. for the people who do not hv enough background, we got one installment payment from SSA around 1.4 lakh that we already paid to the contractor who has done the work till now. If members agree to proceed further to pay 20k to another contractor for the remaining work, we can proceed further. Please share your inputs. No criticism please, these guys(SSA engineers and the contractors) are real rogues and its been getting delayed because of them. I am just trying to see completion ASAP (1 or 2 weeks max) but again it depends. Thanks, Harinath
