At Badarpur border, chaos prevail as many are refused entry in Faridabad

Chaos prevailed at the Delhi-Faridabad border on Wednesday evening after the Haryana government sealed the entry-exit points of the satellite city, leaving several people stranded in the national capital as they waited to cross the border and go home.

Those among the stranded at Badarpur in southeast Delhi included civic body staffers, ones with valid movement permissions, while a few with medical emergencies.

With no accommodation available, many faced the difficult question of where to spent the night.

Faridabad resident Kuldeep (23), who works in South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC), said nobody stopped him in the morning when he entered Delhi.

"When I came to my office around 9 am, nobody stopped or informed me about the sealing of the bordering area. Now, when I want to go back to my home in Faridabad, the police are not allowing us to pass through the border
"I have raw material for masks which I am supposed to deliver at a factory in Faridabad Sector-24. Despite having the movement passes for Delhi and Faridabad, I am not allowed to cross the border and this is second time they have stopped me."
