Emergency services responded quickly and a JCB pulled the motorcycle out of the massive landslide. Fortunately, the rider was rescued without serious injuries, thanks to the quick intervention of the rescue teams.

“We can make our final destination infinite in India.”
“The solution is underground tunnels.”

“If they dig further, I am sure they will find Mohenjo Daro or Harappan civilizations.”
This collapse is not an isolated incident, but part of a worrying pattern. It is the third such incident at the same location in recent months, highlighting ongoing problems with the city’s road infrastructure. Despite ongoing development efforts, these repeated breakdowns raise serious concerns about the adequacy of the city’s roadworks and drainage systems.
Impact of recent heavy rains
The situation has been aggravated by the recent weather conditions. Heavy rains on Wednesday led to a flood-like situation in Gurugram, leaving many areas waterlogged and causing major roadblocks and traffic disruptions. The incessant rains have accelerated damage to roads, exacerbating the city’s infrastructure problems.
Weather Update: Delhi and Gurugram

However, the India Meteorological Department is forecasting that the sky will remain cloudy with possible rainfall throughout the day, which could affect traffic and infrastructure in the region.
