Nagpur: For hundreds of Nagpurians driving home from Pune to celebrate Diwali with family, the much-hyped Samruddhi Mahamarg turned into a highway of frustration. What was meant to be a symbol of progress became a slow-moving parking lot as massive traffic jams stretched for kilometres near Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Shikrapur, and Ahilyanagar.
To make matters worse, several petrol pumps along the route ran dry under the heavy load. The few operational stations witnessed massive rushes and serpentine queues of vehicles waiting for refuelling—some stretching back onto the main highway and adding to the congestion.
