Скачать или смотреть Gurugram Floods: Millennium City Drowns, Billionaires & Commuters Stranded | India Today

Gurugram, Haryana's corporate capital known as the Millennium City, was inundated following rainfall, with the situation persisting from Monday, 1st September. The flooding led to severe traffic gridlocks, trapping commuters for hours and prompting the administration to advise corporates and schools to remain shut. The report examines the root causes, including unplanned, rapid urbanization that has concretized natural drainage areas. It points to the ecological death of the Sahibi River, now the Najafgarh Drain, which once served as a natural drainage channel. The city's reliance on a stormwater system clogged with debris and interconnected with sewage lines exacerbates the problem, along with a lack of coordination between civic bodies. The report highlights a stark contrast, noting that "billionaire or not, no one can escape waterlogging here" in a city that generates over 60% of the state's income tax and sees record-breaking real estate deals.
