After much of a discussion we decided to stick to the earlier route, during return journey luckily we didn’t get much of traffic jam, in this route major bottleneck was Ludhiana one of my friends suggested me to enter Ludhiana to avoid jam but we hadn’t tried this.
We started from Amritsar at 9:00AM, roads were mostly empty and straight but full of diversions which was quite irritating. Got tankful after crossing Amritsar city, after crossing Ludhiana we stopped for our first break at McD after 45 minutes halt we started our journey again this time it was much smooth and fast compared to up journey.
Soon we are approaching towards Delhi, saw one BMW near Ambala chased her down till Panipat, at Panipat crossing traffic guy caught our vehicle for tinted glass and demanded INR1000 fine but after some hard bargaining he settled for 250 bucks, soon we had taken our second break for tea and snacks, after spending 30 minutes here we started again for Delhi, reached at my In-laws place at 6:30PM.
