We have more wines more than traffic lights.

The dilapidated infrastructure of Gurugram, political indifference, and civil failures have sparked sharp criticism from the businessman and clerk of the column Sohail Seth, who described the city as “patriotic shyness” and urged the governor of Delhi to intervene and restore the regime through “unlimited seizure”.

Speaking at the Indian Express event, Seth denounced the Gurugram, while highlighting the chaotic urban extension, weak public services, and the absence of accountability. “We have more alcoholic drinks increases traffic lights. More bars from schools,” said, raising the local administration.

His remarks came in the wake of deadly rains earlier this month, which killed at least eight people in Gorgram due to electric shock, open opening, drowning, and road accidents. The city, which was marked by “Millennium City” in India, stopped with a large -scale flood, traffic paralysis, and excessive sewage lines in exposing deep defects in its infrastructure.

Seth pointed to the paradox of communication with Gurugram is a smart city while the basic services remains dysfunctional. “You cannot have smart cities with UNSMART leaders,” he said.

The former CEO of Niti Aayog, Amitab Kant, supported Seth’s criticism, noting that Gurugram contributes to more taxes on the government of Harrana more than all other cities combined. Kant said: “If you cannot keep Gurugram, this is a major failure,” Kant said.

Seth later revealed to X (Twitter) that he had received calls from Haryana officials after his statements. “Credit where the credit is due,” noting that both Rajeev Jaitly and Pradeep Ias have called him to confirm that CM Nayab Saini had taken knowledge and that the procedure was ongoing.

However, optics are still dark. The death of the rains intensified in July and the roads flooded by the city’s civilian failure. For many population, Gurugram’s collapse is no longer a seasonal inconvenience – it is a repeated indictment of a city based on real estate dreams but drowned in neglect.
