A day before the Kanwar Yatra begins, Delhi Traffic Police on Sunday issued an advisory urging commuters to plan their journey to avoid inconvenience.
“A large number of kanwariyas reach Delhi and some of them go to Haryana and Rajasthan via Delhi borders. This year the expected number is about 15-20 lakh,” read the advisory.
With the kanwariyas expected to set up roadside camps during their journey, congestion is likely along Najafgarh Firni, Rohtak Road, Pankha Road, Dev Prakash, Shastri Marg, Nangloi-Najafgarh Road, Outer Ring Road, Rani Jhansi Road from Baraf, Khana Chowk to Fire Station, Boulevard Road and at Azad Market Chowk, and Mathura Raod, as per the advisory.
“Due to diversion of vehicular traffic, bound for Apsara Border and Maharajpur Border to Ghazipur, by UP Police, there will be congestion on NH-24 as well,” it further read. Elaborate arrangements have been made to segregate the movement of kanwariyas and other road users and to minimise inconvenience to the general public and devotees, police said.
