Gurugram's real estate soars: Sohna and Dwarka Expressway lead the charge with triple-digit price growth

By A Representative 
Gurugram's real estate market is booming, with South of Gurugram (Sohna) and Dwarka Expressway emerging as top performers. Both micro-markets have seen property values more than double in the past five years, driven by extensive infrastructure development and strong demand from homebuyers and investors.
Sohna has experienced an impressive 151% surge in property prices over the last five years, with average prices now at ₹15,600 per sq. ft. This growth is largely due to improved connectivity and robust infrastructure, including the six-lane, 21.65-km-long Sohna Elevated Corridor, the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, the KMP Expressway, and a proposed metro line. These links significantly enhance accessibility to major cities like Delhi, Jaipur, and Mumbai. The Southern Peripheral Road (SPR) also connects Sohna Road to Gurugram's key commercial and residential areas.
Major developers such as Signature Global, Central Park Group, and Ashiana are heavily investing in Sohna, with plans to launch approximately 16,000 housing units. Mr. Pradeep Aggarwal, Founder & Chairman, Signature Global (India) Ltd., emphasized Sohna's strong growth potential, which is supported by competitive pricing and upcoming commercial hubs expected to boost both employment and housing demand. Beyond connectivity, Sohna offers quality healthcare facilities like Medanta - The Medicity, educational institutions such as GD Goenka University, and retail hubs like Signature Global Infinity Mall.
Future development plans further strengthen Sohna's investment appeal. The Sohna Master Plan 2031 designates 255 hectares along the Eastern Peripheral Road for commercial development. Additionally, the Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC) has acquired 607 hectares along the KMP Expressway to develop an industrial model township, positioning Sohna as a rising real estate and business hub.
Meanwhile, Dwarka Expressway has seen a 153% increase in property prices for high-rise apartments over the past five years, with an average price of ₹14,342 per sq. ft. This 29-km stretch, India's first 16-lane highway, provides seamless connectivity from Dwarka in Delhi to the Kherki Daula Toll Plaza in Gurugram. Mr. Ashok Kapur, Chairman, Krishna Group and Krisumi Corporation, noted that this significant price increase is a direct result of rapid infrastructure development and growing demand for premium homes in the area.
The appeal of Dwarka Expressway is set to grow with ongoing and upcoming projects. A newly constructed 5.1 km tunnel has already begun easing travel, with an eight-lane section connecting directly to Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport and a two-lane segment linking to NH-48 towards Gurugram. Furthermore, a new 5-km underground tunnel by NHAI, a ₹3,500-crore project, is planned to create a signal-free link between Shiv Murti-Mahipalpur and Nelson Mandela Road in Vasant Kunj, further decongesting traffic towards Dwarka and Gurugram. Construction for this is expected to begin in early 2026.
Connectivity will be further bolstered by the proposed metro corridor from HUDA City Centre to Cyber City, which will also include a branch connecting Dwarka Expressway. This metro link will provide seamless access to key parts of the city, making daily commuting easier for both residents and professionals. Top developers are expected to add over 25,000 housing units to this micro-market in the next three years, indicating robust future growth.

Arrival of USS Lincoln: A ‘leisure trip’ to Thailand or a neo-colonial move to commodify women?

By Benyasiri Eimviriyapong   The arrival of the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) for a ‘leisure trip’ in Thailand before returning to its campaign of destruction against the people of West Asia demands immediate interrogation and opposition. For us Thai people, and those in sites of American plunder across the globe, this a rattling of the US’ cold war colonial chains on its most loyal lap dog, while conducting a war of aggression in Iran and the ongoing genocide in Palestine. In allowing the USS Lincoln to dock, the Thai ruling elites are once again facilitating a system of imperial violence that extends far beyond Southeast Asian borders, a system which in our case, is predicated on sexual violence and femicide.

Pilgrimage or pollution? The waste crisis of Indian faith

By Raj Kumar Sinha*  In today's times, there are certain issues that are constantly talked about and discussed, yet no visible impact seems to be made. Beyond water, soil, and pollution, one crisis that continues to be overlooked is waste. Like other life-threatening problems, waste too is gradually moving toward burying and obliterating us. After the Kanwar Yatra in Haridwar, approximately 8,000 tonnes of waste were left behind on the riverbanks, including bottles filled with urine.
