300 km of traffic to Maha Kumbh, devotees stressed

Thousands of devotees are stuck stranded for hours in massive traffic congestion reported extending for nearly 300 kilometers on the routes to the Maha Kumbh Mela on Sunday.

The unprecedented congestion forced many to remain stuck in their vehicles,



some even hundreds of kilometres away from the fair site on Sunday and Monday.

A day earlier, heavy traffic heading toward Prayagraj had already led to police stopping hundreds of vehicles in different areas of Madhya Pradesh to prevent overcrowding.
