BJP's Nabanna Chalo throws traffic out of gear in Kolkata

Kolkata, Sep 13: Massive snarls and congestion were seen on Tuesday as traffic was diverted from many roads in central Kolkata owing to Bengal BJP's march to the secretariat.

The Howrah bridge, the Second Hoogly bridge and Esplanade were barricaded to prevent the BJP worker's movement.

The BJP is organising the mega 'Nabanna Cholo' rally to protest against the alleged corrupt practices of the ruling TMC government.
