A resident of Singada Kunta on banjara hills route No.10 stated that the traffic on the route was a continual cause of annoyance for commuters.

"I frequently visit the Hare Krishna golden temple in banjara hills, as well as the Sai baba temple across the street and the gowshala on the temple grounds." "I start from Singada Kunta and get stuck on the main road near the compound wall of Shri jagannath temple due to temple visitors' cars," the local explained.

Commuters and passers-by reported that even though the Integrated Command and Control Centre was only a few blocks away, the police failed to do their responsibilities.
