Snarls on the DND Flyway started as early as 8.30am
NOIDA: Long snarls were witnessed during peak hours on the DND Flyway on Wednesday as traffic diversions imposed by Delhi Police a day after the farmers’ tractor rally violence in the national capital, coupled with the heavy vehicular pressure from the Ghaziabad side, resulted in vehicles piling up.
Jams started at the DND Flyway as early as 8.30am. By 9am, the tailback went up to 3km as vehicular pressure increased on the road. The snarls continued till about 11.30am as commuters negotiated heavy traffic flow from the start of the high-speed corridor till the Yamuna bridge.
NOIDA: When the Covid-induced lockdown led to factories closing and lakhs of migrant workers who had lost their jobs leaving cities in desperation, it was a massive humanitarian crisis that unfolded. But the adversity also brought out the best in humanity. In Noida, a movement started. It was by the people, and for the people. In April and May, the streets of Delhi-NCR witnessed the heart-rending sights of migrant workers setting out for their homes hundreds of kilometres away on foot, baggage and children in tow.
As the government scrambled to arrange transport, camps were set up to house the thousands who were walking. But with wave after wave of reverse migration, there were thousands still on roads, walking down expressways and hitching rides with whoever they could to get home. Other than shielding from the virus, finding food was the other big challenge.
