Heavy rainfall in Gurugram on the night of July 9, 2025, caused severe urban flooding and infrastructure damage, including a massive road cave-in that swallowed a 14-tyre truck loaded with beer and alcohol cartons. The crater formed along the Peripheral Road was reported to be around 30 feet deep. Despite the sudden collapse, the truck driver and others involved escaped without injury. The intense rains led to widespread waterlogging across the city, including upscale areas like Golf Course Road, bringing traffic to a standstill. Authorities advised offices to allow work from home amid the adverse conditions. The downpour resulted in at least five deaths, three due to electric shocks, including a 25-year-old man who died while crossing a waterlogged street on a bike. Experts and local commentators attributed the flooding and infrastructure failures to poor urban planning, lack of proper drainage, and administrative negligence involving multiple authorities. Calls for accountability targeted municipal and district commissioners, with criticism directed at the state government. The incident has sparked discussions on the need for improved urban infrastructure and monsoon preparedness in Gurugram.
