Coimbatore Central Prison to Auction Off Armada Jeep on August 12

Coimbatore Central Prison announces public auction of decommissioned Armada Jeep on August 12, 2024. Interested parties can inspect the vehicle until August 11 and participate with a deposit of Rs. 2000.


Coimbatore: The Coimbatore Central Prison has announced a public auction for a decommissioned Armada Jeep (Registration Number TN 01 G-0722) that has been declared unserviceable due to prolonged use. The auction is scheduled to take place on August 12, 2024, at 11:00 AM at the office of the Coimbatore Prison Superintendent.

Participants interested in the auction are required to pay a deposit of Rs. 2000 for the vehicle. This deposit serves as an entry fee for the bidding process.

For those wishing to inspect the vehicle before the auction, the Coimbatore Central Prison Superintendent has stated that the jeep will be available for viewing until 5:00 PM on August 11, 2024. Interested parties can visit the prison premises during official working hours on weekdays to examine the vehicle.

The auction presents an opportunity for individuals or organizations to acquire a government-used vehicle. While the Armada Jeep has been deemed unserviceable for prison use, it may still hold value for private owners or collectors interested in refurbishing or repurposing the vehicle.

The Coimbatore Central Prison authorities have taken this step to dispose of the asset in a transparent manner, allowing public participation in the process. This auction also serves as a means for the prison to clear out obsolete equipment and potentially generate some revenue from the sale.
