With just a few days left for Deepavali, a surge in shoppers visiting the town to purchase festive essentials has led to severe traffic congestion across Ramanathapuram.

As people make preparations for the festival, large numbers of families from Ramanathapuram and neighbouring villages have been visiting the town to buy new clothes, firecrackers, household articles and sweets.

Traffic has remained heavily congested on several major roads over the past few days. The areas around the Ramanathapuram New Bus Stand, Government Hospital Road, Railway Station Road, Kenikkarai and Vandikkara Street have witnessed a significant increase in pedestrian movement and the number of two-wheelers and cars.

Long queues of vehicles on both sides of the roads have caused traffic bottlenecks, inconveniencing motorists and pedestrians.

To regulate traffic and ensure public safety, police personnel have been deployed in greater numbers at major junctions. They are taking steps to ease congestion and manage the movement of vehicles.

With Deepavali approaching, the crowds are expected to increase further in the coming days.
