Carriageway from Delhi to Ghaziabad reopened

Vehicular movement from Delhi to Ghaziabad through Ghazipur-Ghaziabad (UP Gate) border was restored a little after Sunday midnight, as police opened one carriageway that had remained shut for the past 48 days, since violence broke out during the farmers’ tractor parade on Republic Day. The Ghazipur border as such continues to remain closed with farmers camping there for the past 110 days to protest against three contentious farm laws.

All the six carriageways of Delhi-Meerut Expressway, NH-9, and NH-24 were completely blocked with multilayered barricading and deployment of police personnel following the violence that erupted during the farmers’ tractor rally on January 26 (Republic Day).
