Gurugram, Oct. 9 -- A kilometer stretch of the Gurugram-Faridabad road reeks of decay, with heaps of waste lying along the roadside, alleged residents and commuters adding that even after a special drive led by the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) early this September, the condition of the road remains the same. Commuters expressed frustration over the daily accumulation of waste along the roadside. The open waste makes it particularly difficult for commuters on two-wheelers to navigate due to the unbearable stench, said commuters. Ashwini Dabra, a resident of Sector 45 and a daily commuter on the Gurugram-Faridabad road, expressed his frustration over the lack of action by MCG. "Every day I see new piles of garbage accumulating. It has become increasingly risky for us commuters to travel through this stretch. This road has become a breeding ground for diseases," said Dabra. Another frequent commuter and resident of sector 28, Akshita Sharma, said, "I have witnessed people get out of their vehicle and dump waste right there. People think that with the existing garbage, nothing will change if they add more. We need to take responsibility as citizens and stop contributing to this mess." Sudeep Bhattacharya, a resident of DLF Phase 3, said, "This is no longer Millenium City; it has turned into 'Mess-linium City'. The authorities need to wake and it is high time they start taking the city seriously." Environmentalist Vaishali Rana said, "This issue has been going on for over 2-3 years now. In the past, cyclists and runners would frequent this spot because of its scenic beauty, but the situation has worsened so much that they've stopped coming altogether." Yash Jaluka, Additional Commissioner of MCG, said that regular patrolling is being carried out and plans are underway to identify locations for installing 24x7 CCTV surveillance. "We are also issuing fines to those found dumping waste along the stretch," he added. "We are collecting nearly Rs.1 lakh in fines daily from those illegally disposing of C&D waste," said a MCG official. However, residents have called for stricter enforcement, including naming the frequent offenders....
