🚿 💡 An Idea to improve government tendering system
ഏറ്റവും കുറവ് തുക എസ്റ്റിമേറ്റ് കൊടുക്കുന്ന പാർട്ടിക്ക് ടെൻഡർ കൊടുക്കുന്ന പരിപാടി ഇനിയെങ്കിലും സർക്കാർ നിർത്തണം. അതിനു പകരം സെക്കന്റ് ലാസ്റ് വരുന്ന പാർട്ടിക്ക് ടെൻഡർ കൊടുക്കണം അതാകുമ്പോൾ ആരും ടെൻഡർ കിട്ടാൻ വേണ്ടി ഏറ്റവും കുറഞ്ഞ തുക ആകില്ല quote ചെയ്യുന്നത് , എല്ലാവരും ആ ജോലി ചെയ്യാൻ ആവശ്യം ഉള്ള കറക്റ്റ് തുക ആയിരിക്കും കൊടുക്കുക. 🚿 💡
