Commuters in parts of old Delhi faced difficulty in reaching their destination on Friday afternoon as a large number of people led by Bhim Army chief Chandra Shekhar protested near Jama Masjid against the amended Citizenship Act.

Several roads leading to Jama Masjid and Red Fort witnessed massive traffic jams as hundreds of demonstrators again hit the streets against the new legislation.

According to a senior police officer, Netaji Subhash Marg was closed for vehicular movement.

The protest march has begun amid heavy police deployment.
