YSRCP Supporters Block Roads, Causing Traffic Chaos at Vizag Airport
A big group of people who support a political party called YSR Congress Party gathered at Visakhapatnam Airport to welcome a former chief minister named YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
They parked their cars and blocked the roads, so cars and buses could not move.
The police had told them not to hold a rally or gather in that area, but the supporters ignored the warning.
Because of the blockage, traffic on the big highway that goes from Chennai to Kolkata got stuck.
The police said they would take strict action if the supporters kept causing trouble.
Even though the supporters were excited to meet a party leader named Seediri Appalaraju, the traffic problem made it hard for everyone to get around.
YSRCP supporters blocked roads near Visakhapatnam Airport during YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s visit, causing traffic gridlock on the Chennai‑Kolkata National Highway.
Police had issued restrictions on rallies and crowd gatherings, but party workers defied them and parked vehicles at the airport entrance.
The blockade affected routes toward Sheelanagar and the Vimananagaram‑Sheela Nagar corridor, leaving vehicles stranded.
YS Jagan Mohan Reddy was scheduled to meet party leader Seediri Appalaraju at Ampolu Prison during a Mulaqat.
Police warned of strict action for disrupting law and order, but the party leaders ignored the warnings.
