Diwali Travel Rush Causes Overcrowding at Gurugram Stations and Trains

Long queues formed at bus terminals, and many turned to informal transport, including trucks, to reach their destinations. Government Railway Police and Railway Protection Force teams managed security and crowd control throughout the day.
