Protests Over Ghazipur Murder Cause Massive Traffic Disruption in Delhi

A 32-year-old man was fatally shot in East Delhi, leading to roadblocks and widespread commuter delays as police detain two suspects.

Rohit Singh, a 32-year-old resident of Ghazipur, was shot dead near Phool Mandi early Monday morning, reportedly over a monetary dispute or objections to illegal diesel sales.
Family members and locals staged a protest, blocking major highways including the Delhi-Meerut Expressway, NH-9, and NH-24 for several hours during peak traffic time.
The roadblocks caused severe traffic congestion, delaying office-goers, commuters, and students, some of whom arrived late for Class 10 board exams.
Delhi Police detained two suspects, identified as Nazim Khan and Talib Khan, and are investigating the motive behind the murder.
Protesters dispersed after police assured them of action, but the disruption highlighted tensions in the area and raised concerns over illegal activities and community grievances.
