The Commission has expressed its displeasure and disappointment that this is the fifth submission architect has made and again an ambiguous submission has been submitted by him.

b. Though the proposal is for a school building but the project report submitted has references for a hotel/Motel building. All sections submitted for the proposal are incorrect. Elevations/3D views give an impression of a new design proposal. The whole submission is ambiguous without much clarity.
