Gurugram Civic Body Recommends Action Against Engineer Over Road-Sweeping Lapses
The Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) has recommended disciplinary action against Executive Engineer Sunder Sheoran for lapses in managing mechanized road-sweeping machines amid the city's dust pollution challenges. An inquiry found inadequate verification during handover, missing components, poor record-keeping, and insufficient supervision. The MCG highlighted a shortfall in machines, needing 72 against 24 available, and has sought major penalty proceedings under Haryana Civil Services rules to address these issues and improve dust control efforts.
