Goa PWD Faces Rs 1000 Crore Tender Fraud Allegations Over Forged Documents and Bypassed Rules

Three completion certificates allegedly submitted for one job

Goa’s Public Works Department is facing scrutiny after a contractor and civil engineer alleged a Rs 1000-crore tender fraud. The complainants say a private firm manipulated records to obtain Class IAA (Super) status, then secured lucrative Goa contracts by submitting forged or misleading documents that should have failed eligibility checks. Allegations include procedural lapses tied to the Mudi Tank Filling Scheme, including multiple versions of completion certificates and mismatched joint-venture partner details. Goa PWD’s response and any investigation are awaited.
