Vehicles are stuck in long tailbacks on both lanes of the road in the city’s Science Laboratory intersection area around 1:00pm yesterday. Rush of Eid shoppers in nearby markets caused the tailbacks which stretched from near Kalabagan bus stop to Nilkhet. The roads remained gridlocked throughout the day, leaving commuters to suffer long delays. Photo: Amran Hossain
