The directions for a monthly report were issued when the Lt Governor visited the construction site of the Signature Bridge.
"The Lt Governor reviewed the progress of Signature Bridge Project at Wazirabad where he directed the officials to send regular monthly reports to monitor its timely completion," said an official.
