Singh said: "About 7 to 8 thousand people gathered at the protest site at Shaheen Bagh on Wednesday morning. The protest is going on here for the last 2-3 days. As a precautionary measure, Delhi Traffic Police issued advisory for the general public to avoid the roads around the area.""We have stopped the traffic coming from Noida and going towards Kalindi Kunj. This is an exercise to prevent chaos in areas like Delhi's Sarita Vihar, Mathura Road and Shaheen Bagh," said Singh.However, the exercise resulted in chaos in Noida as the commuters had to either take U-turns or look for another short cut to reach Kalindi Kunj due to roadblocks. As a result, there is a massive jam at DND (Delhi-Noida-Direct Flyway) as all traffic converged on the route.Okhla underpass and a portion of Mathura Road were also closed for traffic movement on Wednesday morning.
