BJP activists today blocked traffic, Metro and suburban rail services in some parts of the capital as part of the Bharat Bandh called by opposition parties to protest against fuel price hike.
BJP workers blocked traffic at Laxmi Nagar, ITO, Preet Vihar, Akshardham and Madhuban Chowk among other areas at around 9 am.
Some BJP workers also stopped a Metro train at Karol Bagh station, a party leader said. Trains were also stopped by protestors at Nangloi, Shakur Basti and Badli railway stations.
In Preet Vihar, some BJP activists got into a scuffle with police during the protest.
"We were trying to remove the blockades. The bandh supporters in that area wanted all of them to be arrested and they entered into a scuffle with us," a senior police official said.
