The police have intensified security in some areas of Ghaziabad district and imposed more traffic curbs after some kanwariyas thrashed a car driver and vandalised the vehicle after it allegedly hit them in Muradnagar, an official said on Sunday, July 28, 2024.
The kanwariyas later blocked a stretch of the Delhi-Meerut expressway on which the incident took place, and created a ruckus, resulting in a traffic jam, the official said.
