While trains in Delhi are delayed due to low visibility, the 'rasta-roko' dharna in Rajasthan by the Gujjars has led to several trains running behind schedule. The Gujjars have been demanding implementation of the 5 per cent reservation that was promised to them by the state government. The protest led by Gujjar leader Kirori Singh Bainsla of the Gujjar Arakshan Sangharsh Samiti (GASS) also affected the train movement on the Delhi-Mumbai line.
