A high-level civic conference in Gurugram has reignited demands for transparent, citizen-driven urban governance to replace the city's fragmented administrative structure, with plans for 150 community consultations and a formal governance declaration to be submitted to state authorities.

The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) has made the decision to adopt a long-term environmental strategy. The strategy, according to authorities, will be ready by June of 2022.
