Gurugram Authorities Review Waterlogging Risks Amid Pre-Monsoon RainsPreviousNext

Ahead of the monsoon season, Gurugram authorities, including traffic police, GMDA, and NHAI, conducted inspections to assess waterlogging and congestion risks on key roads such as Leisure Valley and Rajiv Chowk. While agencies have been tasked with improving drainage and signage within two weeks, recent pre-monsoon rains have already caused waterlogging in several areas, disrupting traffic and raising residents' concerns about inadequate drainage infrastructure and delayed administrative actions.
