Traffic on the Delhi-Gurugram expressway (NH-48) came to a halt on Saturday after a 50-tonne 18-wheeler hydraulic crane allegedly caught fire near Delhi's Mahipalpur. "We tried removing it with five-seven cranes, but...it couldn't be removed. We've now brought in a larger crane," a police officer said. Commuters going from Gurugram to Delhi reportedly remained stranded for hours on the highway.
