WHAT A COMMUTER SAYS

The protest was huge today with almost all the roads in the area choked with protesters. It was very hard to cross the MG Marg at Master Canteen Square. One had to travel a long distance and cross the road at PMG Square. The authorities must also think about those who are affected by such rallies and protests
