India, Feb. 17 -- Residents along the Dwarka Expressway have objected to the proposed construction of two secondary collection points for construction and demolition (C&D) waste in sectors 103 and 106, citing concerns that the sites' proximity to residential areas could worsen dust and pollution and affect public health.

Citizen-led group Dwarka Expressway Gurugram Development Authority (DXP-GDA) has written to the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) commissioner opposing the plan. Sunny Daultabad, a resident of Dwarka Expressway and convenor of DXP-GDA, said, "Both these sites fall within residential zones and will severely impact public health, air quality, and the overall living environment of thousands of families."
