₹35L+ paid in taxes EVERY YEAR. In return? Potholes, chaos & no law and order. An X friend’s ordeal reflects every honest taxpayer’s pain. Sharing it👇
1. Gurgaon contributes nearly ₹40,000 cr in income tax (FY23), projected to hit ₹50,000 cr soon. Yet, the city’s infrastructure looks like a neglected village. Where is all this money going? 
2. Roads filled with potholes. Drainage a joke. Power failures routine. Gurgaon, home to Fortune 500 offices, is run more by private players than government. A city built by money, destroyed by misgovernance.
3. Law & Order? Vehicles without number plates, tinted glasses, illegal hooters. Police look away. Citizens fear road rage turning fatal. That’s not life, it’s survival.
4. Education & healthcare aren’t better either. Schools charge like luxury resorts, hospitals bleed you dry, yet quality is pathetic. The middle class is paying for collapse, not growth.
5. He has been an honest taxpayer for 11 years. But now, like lakhs of Indians, he’s shortlisting countries where life has value & corruption doesn’t rule.
6. This isn’t rare. Reports show 22% of ultra-HNI Indians plan to leave India, citing taxes, corruption, poor infrastructure. Brain drain + wealth drain = recipe for disaster.
7. The govt keeps selling “2047 dream”. But taxpayers don’t live in 2047, they live in TODAY. They need safe roads, working drainage, reliable healthcare NOW.
8. When a top taxpayer says “I want redemption for my hard work & money”, it’s not just anger, it’s a red flag. If the most responsible citizens give up, who will carry this nation forward?
9.This isn’t one man’s rant, it’s a collective scream of India’s backbone: the taxpayers. Respect them, protect them, deliver for them. Else, the exodus will only grow
10. And yes, I know a few IT Cell folks will scream ‘fake’. So here’s the snapshot of the actual message from the X user 👇
11.1 Sharing a few snapshots of complaints from Gurugram residents, exposing the pathetic potholes and road conditions every monsoon

12. Dear @MunCorpGurugram, this is not just feedback, it’s a demand. With the kind of global companies setting up offices here, taxpayers deserve world-class infrastructure, not potholes and chaos. Start valuing taxpayers’ lives and give them a city they can live in peacefully🙏.
