The Chamber of Trade and Industry urged Congress chair Sonia Gandhi to defer the INDIA bloc's November 1 Ramlila Maidan rally until after Diwali, warning that an expected one million attendees and 15,000 to 20,000 vehicles could cause crippling traffic across 20 markets. Traders said the gridlock could halt Rs 10,000 to 12,000 crore in festive turnover and disrupt Dhanteras.
