Traffic crawled at a snail's pace in Delhi-NCR on Tuesday morning as police placed multiple layers of barricades on Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur borders in view of the farmers' march to the national capital. Commuters had a harrowing time as they battled traffic jams, with Delhi being turned into a fortress to thwart the entry of farmers.
"I left the house on time at 8.30. I had a flight to Gwalior at 11 am. When I left my home, the Google map was showing only 40 minutes. But then I got stuck in traffic and I reached the airport ten minutes before my flight and I was denied boarding. There was no farmers' movement there (on the road) but we were still stopped. Why is that," a commuter recounted the ordeal to NDTV due to traffic snarls.
