# NH-48 diversions near Khandsa on Sunday afternoon 2026-11-01T04:31:40+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Gurugram traffic police have issued an advisory for three temporary traffic blocks on the Delhi-Jaipur Expressway (NH-48) near Khandsa village on Sunday, 1 November 2026 afternoon. Traffic will be stopped or diverted for 15 to 20 minutes each time to allow Haryana Vidyut Prasaran Nigam Limited (HVPNL) to replace a damaged power transmission line conductor. The conductor on the 66 kV Harsaru-Sector 35-Badshahpur line snapped on 18 July 2026, causing congestion. HVPNL is replacing it with a high-temperature low-sag (HTLS) conductor on a turnkey basis. Commuters have been advised to use the service road or Southern Peripheral Road as alternatives and to follow instructions from traffic personnel. Emergency vehicles will be given priority. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The three short diversions affect a key artery connecting Delhi and Jaipur, but the work targets a recurring vulnerability: the snapped conductor in July caused traffic chaos. By replacing it with an HTLS conductor on a turnkey contract, HVPNL is attempting a permanent fix rather than a patch. Commuters on Sunday afternoon face only brief delays, but the test will be whether the new conductor withstands future loads without snapping again. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com Straight advisory relay with no framing slant This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
