Besides, the Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg, Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg and the area around the India Gate were also affected.
In Old Delhi, people were hassled while commuting to the Chandni Chowk, the Red Fort and Old Delhi Railway Station areas.
Areas in trans-Yamuna like Seelampur, Wazirabad, Shahdara, Zaffrabad, Yamuna Vihar were also affected. In east Delhi, the area around Anand Vihar ISBT was also affected.
The Delhi Traffic Police’s Twitter handle had a busy time posting updates about the traffic situation.

Another update from the handle read, “Obstruction in traffic in the carriageway from Mangolpuri flyover towards Peera Garhi due to breakdown of a DTC bus.”
