On Thursday, the Gurugram administration executed a large-scale demolition of approximately 100 shanties illegally constructed on government land in Sector 10.

In a continued effort against crime, the Gurugram Police identified these encroachments behind Alpine School as hubs of illicit contraband trade.

Authorities previously arrested Mahendra, a suspected drug peddler, which prompted further investigation and subsequent actions against illegal encroachments under police supervision.
