Rapid concretization in Gurugram has led to severe flooding. While an effective drainage system is crucial for managing rainwater, it’s not the only solution. The widespread use of porous tiles and pavement is equally important. These special surfaces allow rainwater to naturally seep into the ground, preventing it from pooling on the surface and causing floods. This dual approach—combining a robust drainage system with the use of porous materials—is essential for the city’s future. It would not only help in flood prevention but also play a vital role in recharging the city’s groundwater.
