Gurgaon sweeper claimed 56.5km of cleaning but cleaned only 0.3km

A mechanised road-sweeping machine in Gurgaon was reported to have covered 56.5km. Further investigation found it had swept only 0.3km after veering off course at high speed. The discrepancy has raised questions about the machine's operation and the reliability of its reported distance. Separately, the Commission for Air Quality Management is set to activate a new command centre next week. The facility will track real-time emissions and pollution across Delhi-NCR, staffed by nearly 100 officials.
