Ghaziabad Councillor Confronts Traffic Police Over Patel Nagar Jam

BJP councillor Sheetal Deol Chaudhary from the Patel Nagar area of Ghaziabad stepped onto the road herself over the poor state of traffic management. Late in the evening, she suddenly reached the area outside Shaheed Sthal metro station and had a heated exchange with traffic police over the arrangements there. She put her point across firmly, and people in the area have started calling her a ‘lady Singham’.

The councillor said the road to Patel Nagar was getting completely jammed because auto-rickshaws were parked haphazardly and parking was disorganised. The route passes several hospitals and schools. She clearly asked the traffic administration who would take responsibility for the safety and timely movement of emergency patients and schoolchildren in such a situation.

Sheetal Deol Chaudhary also shared a video of the incident on her social media platforms and WhatsApp status so that the public could be made aware of the problem. She said that raising and resolving the everyday problems of the area at the ground level is her responsibility.

Local residents appreciated the councillor’s step. They said that when traffic management is not working properly, it is important for a public representative to come onto the road and try to fix the situation.

In a busy area like Patel Nagar, traffic jams not only waste people’s time but can also prove fatal in an emergency. The councillor made it clear that negligence on issues of public interest will not be tolerated.

Residents hope that after this, the traffic administration will pay special attention to the route and act strictly against illegal parking of auto-rickshaws and other vehicles, so that the road leading to hospitals and schools stays free of jams.
