It may be recalled that Star of Mysore (dated Nov. 7, 2016) had published an interview with B.D. Jatti’s grandson, Channu Jatti (in pic), who is into sand business in Philippines where he had said, “The only way to curb sand mafia is to import sand.”
Reacting to the State government’s decision to import sand from foreign countries, Channu Jatti, Director, Blue Max International, told SOM, here this morning over phone, “We had interacted with the State government and it has finally acted. They have called for a global tender because of the Transparency Act. We are also participating in the tender. The last date to apply is June 22 or 23. Once the tender process is completed immediately decision will be taken to identify the supplier.”
