Respected Officers Concerned .I feel that first if all putting both ,incoming and outgoing traffic on one side of the riad and closing the other is a hazzard .And then there are BARRICADES ON TOP OF THEM .IN ANY CASE THERE ARE 4-5 POLICE MEN ON ALL CORNERS AND BARRICADES I THINK THEY SHD BE CAPABLE ENOUGH TO HANDLE THE TRAFFIC .THIS KIND OF UNDUE HURDLES MAKE US FEEL THAT ,WE ARE VICTIMS OF HARRASMENT.
