Poor planning by police led to a huge traffic jam in the cantonment area of Rawalpindi on Saturday, leaving thousands of commuters stranded for eight hours.
As the martrdom of Hazrat Imam Hussain was being observed at an imambargah at Churr Chowk, the Rawalpindi city police forced people haphazardly on Peshawar Road to shut down their business places and removed vehicles parked on road side so that to avoid any untoward incident.
Police though successfuly cleared and sealed the area, in the process it deprived the people of their right civil liberties as they could not continue their business activities. The action showed that though police were vigilant, the planning was poor and the situation was not smoothly managed.
