Gurugram's civic infrastructure must match city's scale: Human rights panel

A human rights commission has flagged the recurring disruption of essential services in Gurugram during heavy rainfall, stating that such failures cannot be accepted as an inevitable part of urban life.

The panel cited repeated breakdowns in roads, schools, emergency services, water supply and ordinary mobility during monsoon seasons, emphasizing that civic infrastructure must be adequate for a city of Gurugram's scale and population.

The comments underscore growing concerns over the gap between Gurugram's rapid expansion and the pace of basic infrastructure development to support its residents.
