Last year a handsome amount of 89.5millions was awarded to the contractors of cattle market setters. This year a contract of 89.5millions as the reverse price is announced. The Rawalpindi cantonment board failed to auction off this contract despite three attempts. Contractors setup a pool of 56.5 millions as bid.On a mutual decision the cantonment board announced the may 27 will be the last date of open auction. The board decided that if the contractors does not follow the given date and continue their attitude then the board will set up a separate market with it’s own resources. Board decided to hire staff and enforcement from other departments for cattle market. Entry fee will be collected by by staff of cantonment board. Rashid Saqib one of spokesperson from cantonment board said that if the board arrange a setup cattle market on its own it would be more profitable that almost 120 to 150 millions can earned through it.So now everyone is waiting for 27th may that either the contractors submit the bids or not.
