Haryana MP Says Gurugram’s Sinking Will Be Fixed by 2047

Gurugram, a fast‑growing city in Haryana, is grappling with severe water‑logging that has left several low‑lying areas submerged during monsoon rains. In a recent interview with NDTV, a Haryana Member of Parliament highlighted the extent of the problem, describing the city as "sinking" under the relentless water accumulation.

The MP acknowledged that current drainage and infrastructure shortcomings are contributing to the crisis, but insisted that a comprehensive plan is in the pipeline. He told the channel that the government’s long‑term solution will be implemented by 2047, the year when the state’s current development targets are slated for completion.

While the statement underscores political attention to Gurugram’s infrastructural woes, local residents and civic groups have urged faster action, citing repeated disruptions to traffic, commerce, and daily life. The MP’s promise, however, signals a commitment to address the issue within the broader timeline of Haryana’s development agenda.

Authorities have not disclosed detailed timelines or budget allocations for the proposed fixes, leaving stakeholders to await further clarification from the state government.
