Commuters in Delhi’s Gandhinagar market report severe congestion and disorder as crowds swell, making movement difficult.
Delhi’s bustling Gandhinagar market is experiencing a sharp rise in footfall, leading to cramped lanes and stalled vehicle movement. Shoppers and daily commuters alike are finding it increasingly hard to navigate the narrow streets as the crowd density grows.
Witnesses say the surge in shoppers has created bottlenecks at key entry points, causing long queues for both pedestrians and motorists. Many have expressed frustration over the lack of orderly flow, citing safety concerns and delayed travel plans.
Local authorities are aware of the situation and are monitoring the market area, though no specific remedial measures have been announced at this stage. Residents are advised to plan alternate routes or travel during off‑peak hours to avoid the congestion.
