Delhi Police Issues Traffic Advisory In View Of Farmers’ Protest

The Delhi Police on Thursday issued a traffic advisory in view of the farmers’ protest, saying vehicular movement will be affected on city borders due to pickets and checkpoints and asked commuters to plan accordingly.

Thousands of farmers seeking to march to the national capital remain camped at Khanauri and Shambhu borders between Punjab and Haryana agitating for their demands, including a legal guarantee for minimum support price (MSP) for crops and farm debt waiver.

Traffic will be affected due to the deployment of pickets and checking at the Jheel Khurd Border, Mandi Border, Aaya Nagar Border, DND Flyway, Kalindi Kunj, Badarpur, Palla, Surajkund and Karni Singh shooting range, the advisory said.

Inbound and outbound traffic from Haryana is being routed through Zero Palla, Singhu School Toll, Piao Maniyari, Saboli, Safiyabad and Lampur. However, traffic at these borders remains heavy throughout the day. Vehicles are being allowed after due checking, the advisory said.

NH-44 beyond the Singhu Border has been completely closed for general traffic. Other connected roads going towards NH-44, Sonipat/Panipat are also affected but open for general public, it said.

Two lanes of NH-9 and as many of NH-24 at the Ghazipur Border are open for general public. Similarly, two lanes of DND are also open for commuters. However, there is slow movement and as such commuters are advised to avoid these stretches especially during peak hours, it stated.
