GURUGRAM: In a novel protest, two groups — a political birthday party and an NGO — on Saturday launched into a mock paddy plantation drive in the town’s waterlogged areas to attract the attention of the authorities to the pitiable situation of Gurugram’s infrastructure in the aftermath of the monsoon rains on Thursday and Friday.
One of the protesting groups was once Aam Admi Party’s district unit. “If the businesses can not control the waterlogging in the town, they will have to resort to planting paddy, no less than that will earn them some income,” stated the birthday party’s state media coordinator, Sudhir Yadav, who led the mock plantation drive.
Yadav stated Gurugram only has the tag of ‘cyber town’, however it all the time struggle to manage up with the fundamental necessities of electrical energy, water, highway and public transport machine.
“All the governments had been excited by making increasingly income from Gurugram by means of amassing tax. No political birthday party ever took an honest initiative to make Gurugram an international town,” he stated, asking the civic businesses — MCG and GMDA — if they've any grasp plan for Gurugram’s development. In another upscale space of town, Golf Course Road, a residents’ NGO referred to as Nav Jan Chetna Manch, also tried a mock plantation of the paddy sapplings.
“This is the most upscale address of town and but there may be 3.five toes of water on the roads and hour-long site visitors jams. If this is the state of the Golf Course Road, one can only consider what the scenario in outdated Gurugram is,” stated Vashishtha Goyal of Nav Jan Chetna Manch. Several other folks also joined the crowd during their mock display to protest the lack of maintenance of infrastructure in the town.
Krishan Yadav, a resident of South City-1, stated, “While the government is busy making tall claims, Golf Course Road was once completely choked by means of rainwater. This government has been misusing price range in the title of development. The sewage machine has no longer been properly advanced and the infrastructure has no longer been tested for such scenarios.”
