Messy state of NH19 from Varanasi to Prayagraj in July 2019

Roadie, Shekhar Maurya drove #Varanasi_Prayagraj (erstwhile, #Allahabad), 120 Kms of messy stretch on NH19 (erstwhile, NH2) via Handia 2019-07-21 around 4.30pm.
Lots of infrastructure development work, viz. road widening and flyover construction were being carried out on the entire stretch of the GQ.
There were huge and frequent traffic snarls, too.
However, there was no respite from paying stiff toll plaza charges.
