Gurgaon Sinks: Drowning in Rain, Debt, and a Broken Dream | India Today

A resident of Gurgaon shares their experience of being stranded after their car was submerged in floodwaters. The situation highlights a recurring problem in the city every monsoon: the collapse of civic infrastructure. The discussion explores the paradox of Gurgaon, a city known for high property prices and a sought-after lifestyle, yet plagued by severe waterlogging, traffic chaos, and poor air quality. One perspective shared is that "Builders want to make it unaffordable. Government wants to make it unlivable." The conversation also examines why people continue to live there despite the challenges, citing employment opportunities and inertia. The issue of citizen inaction, such as not engaging with municipal authorities or making it an election issue, is identified as a contributing factor to the persistent problems. The city’s condition is contrasted with the better-planned infrastructure of neighbouring Noida.
