Over 32,000 Stilt+4 approvals in Gurugram over 7 years. But are we getting the basics of urban governance right? Hon’ble @mlkhattar ji, CM @NayabSainiBJP ji, @TCP_HARYANA & @dtcphry: Before adding density to occupied neighbourhoods, please ensure infrastructure capacity keeps pace with population growth. Introduce cleaner construction techniques, strictly enforce construction-dust norms, and mandate effective demolition-dust containment, including compliance during traditional stone-cutting and other dust-generating activities. Stop illegal malba dumping and remove the mountains of construction debris choking Gurugram. Most importantly, improve ambient air quality in residential sectors and protect residents from the daily burden of dust and pollution. We have already written to CAQM on these concerns. CAQM has, in turn, marked our letters to MCG and HSPCB. Why demolish relatively recent homes and burden settled colonies when suitable new areas could be planned and developed with infrastructure in place upfront? Plan S+4Flr in new sectors wherein activities can be planned without causing structural damages and dust and noise pollution in well settled neighbourhoods. मकान बनाना रियल एस्टेट का काम है; शहर बसाना और उसे रहने लायक बनाए रखना सरकार की ज़िम्मेदारी है। CC: @punjabharyanahc 🙏 @CAQM_Official @CPCB_OFFICIAL @Haryana_spcb @DC_Gurugram @MunCorpGurugram @Vedmalik1 #Gurugram #UrbanPlanning #CleanAir #CleanAirBharat @IndianExpress @AB_Hazardous

The irony died a million deaths! 🙈🙈 Messages on pollution, Ravan being set alight, fireworks lighting up the sky… and then GRAP-1 kicks in as Delhi’s air quality deteriorates. Delhi’s AQI jumped from 179 on 20 October to 245 on 21 October…a sharp rise of 66 points in just one day! And this is just the trailer! Imagine what will happen when millions burst so-called “green crackers” this Diwali. “Green” does not mean pollution-free. Burning crackers still releases smoke and particulate pollution into an already polluted atmosphere! If Delhi is restricting vehicles that don’t meet the prescribed emission norms from November to January in the interest of cleaner air, why not bring the same urgency and spirit of innovation to our celebrations? Why not seriously explore firecracker-free festivities, spectacular laser and light shows, and cleaner alternatives to traditional effigy burning? If people are being asked to change how they travel for clean air, surely we can rethink how we celebrate, too? Clean air cannot be a selective priority. We cannot regulate emissions on our roads while treating seasonal bursts of pollution as inevitable. At least try. Pilot it. Show us that celebrations can be spectacular without adding to the pollution crisis. What’s stopping us? 🙈 @gupta_rekha ji @mssirsa ji @CAQM_Official @CPCB_OFFICIAL @byadavbjp ji @PMOIndia #DelhiPollution #CleanAir #Diwali #GRAP1 @LiveLawIndia @LivelawH @barandbench

Gurugram has all the ingredients for a high-pollution mix and thus recipe we have perfected- repeating it day after day, year after year. Dear @CAQM_Official @CPCB_OFFICIAL Please let us know what should residents do to get the situation 📍Sector 23A dust-filled road along a 1 km stretch, from the traffic light to Shamshaan Road and Janam Divas Park Road. We don’t doubt the capabilities of our authorities. But without adequate resources ; manpower, machinery and money…how will this ever get the attention and action it needs? @MunCorpGurugram @OfficialGMDA @DC_Gurugram @HspcbS @Haryana_spcb @csharyana @RaoNarbir @DC_Gurugram #Gurugram #AirPollution #RoadDust #DhoolDhua #CleanAirBharat
