DIMAPUR, JUNE 27 (MExN): The Nagaland Contractors and Suppliers union has requested all heads of departments to check and verify that the contractors and suppliers union identity card holders are up to date before issuing any work order or supply. It further urged all HOSs to immediately stop table tenders. It informed that the union had reminded the same to the state government “but till today some of the departments continuously practice table tender without inviting open tender.” It added that this practice is illegal.

The union informed that it would issue new smart cards from July 1, hence all members have been urged to submit their old cards at the NCSU head office in Kohima and receive the new smart cards.

It cautioned that if there is any such case detected by NCSU officials of the action committee, the defaulter would be expelled from the union without further information.
