the report said.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 It noted that in such cases, the concessionaire is more likely to not actually complete the work at all, or do it with sub-par quality.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 &#8220;In light of this, the committee recommends that the ministry may either come out with upper and lower limits for bidding for road projects or establish a mechanism to strictly monitor the quality and progress of road projects awarded to substantially low bids,&#8221;
