New Delhi : Dissatisfied with the slow pace of work on installation of CCTV cameras, the Delhi government on Friday warned Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), which is executing the project, of Rs 16 crore penalty and blacklisting.

According to an official statement, BEL is under legal obligation to complete the work within nine months as per its agreement with the government. It stated that if BEL fails to complete the entire installation work within these nine months, it is liable to pay a 10 per cent penalty.

"As a first step, since more than two-thirds of the time given to BEL is already over, the Delhi government proposes to impose a five percent penalty (Rs 16 crore) of the overall CCTVs installation project cost (Rs 320 crore) to begin with," the statement stated.
