Heavy rains and thunderstorms trigger chaos in Gurugram with severe waterlogging and power outages

Early morning thunderstorms accompanied by intense rainfall on Friday wreaked havoc across Gurugram, causing widespread waterlogging, traffic disruptions, and power outages. The downpour, which lasted for about an hour, led to severe flooding on key roads and in residential sectors, bringing the city to a standstill.

According to officials from the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN), several parts of the city experienced electricity outages due to damage caused by strong winds that uprooted trees and broke branches. These fallen trees also brought down electric poles and damaged vehicles parked along the roads.

Traffic on the Delhi-Jaipur Expressway, particularly near Narsinghpur and towards Delhi, slowed to a crawl due to heavy water accumulation. Internal roads in sectors such as Sector-4, 10, 40, 45, 50, and 52, both in old and new Gurugram, were severely affected. Commuters faced delays and frustration, with some residents reporting water levels rising up to two to three feet in certain areas.

Residents from Ardee City expressed their concern over recurring waterlogging, blaming the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) for failing to maintain proper drainage systems. “If the MGC had carried out timely maintenance, this mess could have been avoided,” said Chaitali Mandhotra, a member of the local RWA.

In Sector-7C, resident Hariom Yadav said several cars were submerged due to clogged stormwater drains. “Car owners will now bear the cost of this civic failure,” he said.

Echoing similar sentiments, Sector-40 RWA president Abhimanyu Yadav urged the MCG to act swiftly. “We want immediate action to clean all drainage lines and remove stormwater,” he said.

A senior MCG official confirmed that contractor teams were deployed across the city under the supervision of junior and executive engineers to pump out water and clear blocked drains. “We’re also removing fallen trees to ensure road safety and power restoration,” the official added.

Meanwhile, Puneet Pahwa, president of Sector-45 RWA, criticised the MCG’s efforts as ineffective. “All the silt washed into the drains again today. This is nothing but wastage of taxpayer money,” he said.

In Sector-23A, a section of a park wall collapsed, though no injuries were reported. Residents said the incident underscored the risks posed by unmaintained public infrastructure during extreme weather.

DHBVN officials confirmed that ground teams are working to clear debris and restore power to affected areas. The city now awaits a civic response that matches the urgency of its residents’ concerns.
