Gurugram (Paridhi Dhasmana), 30 August – In Gurugram’s East Pocket, Sector 23, what should have been a serene stretch—perhaps part of a modest park—has been grievously defiled. Lanes 3 and 9 are now entrenched in a rotting, refuse-ridden wasteland. For days, locals have watched broken tree branches, mounded leaves, and piled-up garbage dominate the landscape, an unsettling tableau of civic neglect.
Harish Nair, President of East Pocket Sector 23, captured the urgency of the situation in a forwarded message: “Requested your intervention—the complaint is still pending.” He has complained numerous times, yet the litter, decay, and abandonment remain defiantly intact. The area has morphed into what can only be described as a filth-laden dumping ground, hardly the “respite” any green space promises.
This is not mere negligence—it’s bureaucratic indolence on display, a scathing indictment of public duty. The Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) cannot content itself with silence while these lanes fester. MCG must immediately purge these lanes—or be held accountable as the smell, and the outrage, grows unbearable.
Residents are done waiting. This slow-burning collapse isn’t just unsightly—it’s a quiet crisis, undermining public health, diminishing community morale, and daring the civic body to finally act.
