A group of people blocked the MB Road in Delhi and damaged DTC buses on Thursday morning after not being allowed to board a vehicle that had exceeded the permissible passenger-carrying capacity under Covid-related restrictions.

Police used mild force to disperse the crowd and five people were detained, officials said.
