Gurugram Orders Removal of RMC Plants and Addresses Dust, Garbage Burning Ahead of Winter
The Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) has set an October 25 deadline to remove 31 ready-mix concrete plants to reduce dust pollution. This follows similar actions in Manesar targeting unauthorized plants. The Commission for Air Quality Management found 258 dust-control violations across Gurugram roads, urging corrective measures. Additionally, over 300 illegal garbage-burning sites were identified, with officials promising enforcement amid resident concerns over ongoing waste accumulation and limited action.
