As the Haryana Assembly polls approach, voters in Gurugram are voicing their frustration with the city's traffic woes. Despite its status as a major IT and corporate hub, severe waterlogging, damaged roads, and chronic traffic jams plague daily life.

Pitched as the 'Singapore of India', Gurugram's elite region of NCR struggles with poor civic amenities, prompting residents to flash placards such as 'No road, no vote' and 'Stuck in traffic, can't vote' during candidates' visits. 'We need a plan, not promises,' resident Sumegh Jaiswal told PTI.

With the elections on October 5, both BJP and Congress candidates face intense scrutiny from voters demanding solutions to the traffic crisis.
