Traffic Halts on NH-44 and NH-65
On Sunday, traffic on two major highways in India came to a standstill.
On NH-44, the birthday celebrations of a former MLA caused a huge traffic jam.
Many people gathered to celebrate, which made the road very busy and caused a five-kilometer traffic jam.
This made it hard for people to travel between Hyderabad and Nagpur.
On NH-65, the Sankranti festival rush also caused traffic problems.
The Panthangi toll plaza was very busy, and there were long lines of vehicles.
Police were deployed to help manage the traffic.
Some people suggested that the police should take more precautions during such events to avoid traffic problems in the future.
Traffic on NH-44 near Kallakal was halted due to birthday celebrations of former MLA Mynampally Hanumantha Rao.
Congress leaders and party workers gathered near the Bangaramma temple, causing a five-kilometer traffic jam.
The heavy turnout resulted in severe inconvenience for commuters traveling between Hyderabad and Nagpur.
On NH-65, the Sankranti festival rush caused heavy vehicular congestion, especially at the Panthangi toll plaza.
Police personnel were deployed to regulate traffic at choke points on NH-65 due to construction works and festival rush.
