LAHORE: The city remained paralysed on Thursday as the roads were blocked by demonstrators of Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan’s (TLP).
TLP demonstrators blocked Walton Road, Ferozpur Road, Multan Road, Shadara Chowk, Daroghey Wala, Sheikhupura Road, Babu Sabu Interchange, Azadi Flyover and various entry points to the Lahore Ring Road.
Due to the roads being blocked, the traffic diverted to alternate routes where it remained stuck for hours at end because of lack of proper traffic control.
In Defence Housing Authority (DHA), the traffic remained jam-packed for several hours because the alternate routes for DHA were blocked by the sit-in and the citizens had to opt for the main boulevard of DHA which was already blocked at various points due to the ongoing construction of the residential area.
