A severe traffic jam stretched from Shankar Road to Talakotara Circle in Delhi, leaving motorists stranded and causing significant delays.
Earlier today, a prolonged traffic jam unfolded along the stretch from Shankar Road to Talakotara Circle in Delhi, halting vehicles for several hours.
The congestion began when a minor incident on Shankar Road escalated, blocking multiple lanes and forcing traffic to back up toward the circle.
Drivers reported being stuck for up to three hours, with many citing frustration over the lack of alternate routes and delayed commutes.
Delhi traffic police responded by deploying additional officers and setting up temporary detours, but the jam persisted until late afternoon when the blockage was finally cleared.
