This follows heavy rainfall throughout the Delhi-NCR region. Metro services were also halted at Rajiv Chowk in New Delhi on Monday due to a technical issue on the Noida Electronic City route, as per news agency PTI.
Delhi witnessed traffic snarls across multiple parts of the city following heavy rainfall throughout the day, severely impacting vehicular movement.
Heavy congestion was reported from several key roads and intersections, with commuters stranded for hours in long queues of vehicles.
The situation was particularly grim in south Delhi and along major ring roads, with waterlogging further worsening the traffic flow.
In northwest Delhi, traffic was heavy near Lala Jagat Narayan Marg around Netaji Subhash Place in Pitampura, with a significant stretch of the Outer Ring Road experiencing slow-moving traffic.
Parts of south Delhi, including the busy Mahatma Gandhi Road, NH-48, and Captain Gaur Marg from Lajpat Nagar to Bahapur, were also severely congested.
