Not every city gets a slogan.We got Gurgaon.

While other cities have spirit, we have traffic. While other cities have beaches, we have dust. While other cities have traditions, we have alternate routes. This is our story — this is our Gaurav.

For three years the lift in our tower has paused, thoughtfully, between the fourth and fifth floors before deciding to continue. We have learned to use the interval for reflection. I submit it as a Gaurav of patience.

Our water tanker keeps no schedule yet has never entirely failed us. It arrives by an instinct we have stopped questioning. I nominate it for recognition of reliability achieved without timetable.

I crossed from one tower to the next — a distance of six hundred metres — in thirty-eight minutes during the evening peak. I submit this not as a complaint but as a personal best, and a tribute to the corridor.

Other cities have monuments, culture and slogans. We have resilience — and the quiet conviction that it is worth a great deal more.
