|March 08, 2025
A group of residents in the city have issued an appeal to the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), demanding action to tackle the worsening dust pollution, specifically after the revocation of the Graded Response Action Plan (Grap).
GURUGRAM: Residents alleged that construction activities have resumed unchecked, leading to uncontrolled excavation and mismanagement of construction and demolition (C&D) waste after Grap regulations were revoked.
Areas such as Golf Course Road, Golf Course Extension Road, Hamilton Court, MG Road, Senapati Prataprao Gurjar Marg, and key stretches in sectors 65, 67, 29, 55, and 78 are the worst affected, with uncovered soil dumps, incomplete roadworks, and construction debris left along roadsides.
