Kanwar yatra: Ghaziabad cops to shut all entry points to Delhi-Meerut Expressway (DME) from today; NH-9 remains open

Ghaziabad traffic police will shut down all Delhi-Meerut Expressway entry points within their jurisdiction starting Monday to ensure safe passage for Kanwar pilgrims during the annual yatra, lasting until Mahashivratri on July 23. This decision follows coordination issues with Meerut police and aims to manage the expected surge in pilgrim traffic, diverting vehicles to the already congested NH-9.
