Badaun News: On Saturday night and Sunday evening, the Bareilly-Mathura route remained closed because of the influx of Kanwariyas into Badaun's Kachla. To remove the cars, the cops had to use force. Security had been ensured by the deployment of police across the city.
Shiva devotees are gathering to take Kanwar on the Kachala Ganga Ghat from both neighboring and far-off places. Kanwariyas would go out all night long with DCMs and DJs on tractor-trolleys. Although there was parking available for kanwariyas at the Ganga Ghat, the roadway remained congested as thousands of kanwariyas arrived.
Blockage in traffic from Kachla to Chhatuya gate
Shiva worshipers were backed up for almost seven kilometers after leaving Ujhani and heading towards Chhatuia Phatak through Kachla. From the Kachla crossroads, the Kanwariyas found it extremely difficult to go to the Ganga ghat.
Assessing the Kanwar Yatra, officials
Officials from the police and administration also visited and inspected the location when the number of Kanwariyas grew starting on Saturday night. Officers had received a warning not to abandon their stations. We strictly adhered to route detours.

Due to their own drivers, Kanwariyas are stuck in traffic jams
Three or four locations, including the Kachla crossroads, were clogged with traffic for Kanwariyas. Sunday morning there was a traffic delay at Radhe Lal College in Kachla, and an hour later, a lengthy line of Kanwariya tractor-trolleys was established.
Although the police were able to get traffic moving throughout the campus after nearly three hours of work, there was still a congestion near the intersection. It was also manned by police officers. The morning traffic bottleneck started at Vitroi Turn. As per Jangi Singh, an eyewitness, the actual reason behind the traffic jam was the negligent attempt by the Kanwariya drivers to remove their tractor trolleys.
