An event organised by Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind at the Talkatora stadium led to massive traffic snarls in central Delhi on Monday, officials said.

Commuters coming towards Lutyens' Delhi were stuck in a mile-long jam due to the 'Aman and Ekta Sammelan' organised by the outfit.

The event witnessed the participation of close to 16,000 people.

The Delhi Traffic Police had warned commuters against taking the route in the morning.

"Traffic will remain heavy on Talkatora Marg and Vandemataram Marg due to a function at Talkatora Stadium. Kindly avoid these stretches," it had tweeted.
