Tenders should be completed within the set timeframe as any delay gives scope for suspicion.
Any irregularities in the tender process would come out during the scrutiny.Though the recent letter written by the contractors to the Prime Minister in this regard does not contain any specific information,a probe has been ordered to ensure transparency,Bommai said.
