Unannounced Student Protest Causes Hours-Long Traffic Jam on Gurugram's Sohna Road
An unannounced student protest on Gurugram's Sohna Road caused severe traffic congestion stretching nearly three kilometres on Monday afternoon. Motorists, including an ambulance, were stuck for over 40 minutes to three hours, with some two-wheelers attempting to bypass the jam via footpaths, further narrowing space. The protest occurred outside the State Council of Educational Research and Training office over admission concerns. Gurugram traffic police deployed teams to manage and divert traffic, gradually restoring normal flow after several hours.
