Ramesh Dalal, a senior leader of the Bhumi Bachao Sangharsh Samiti, led the protesters who squatted on NH-9 in Bahadurgarh, resulting in a pile-up of vehicles on the road.
The blockade was lifted after over two hours following assurance to the protesters that their demands will be taken up with the authorities concerned, officials said.
Some protesters also tried to squat on the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway but the police dispersed them from there.
