Officials of Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) and National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) held a meeting on Friday to discuss the action plan and measures to be taken to curb flooding on National Highway 48 during the monsoon.
At Narsinghpur, a stretch that often gets waterlogged as it is located at a depression resulting in run-off water accumulating from Aravallis, GMDA CEO Sudhir Rajpal gave directions to install two additional pumps to pump out the rain water into the Badshahpur drain to curb waterlogging on the service lane and main carriageway.
Officials said that directions were given to NHAI to deploy round-the-clock labour and machinery near Narsinghpur for cleaning debris from the drains to ensure uninterrupted flow of storm water.
