Workers of the Shiv Sena (UBT) on Monday staged a "chakka jam" (road blockade) agitation on the Samruddhi Expressway in Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar to protest the low onion procurement rates.

The agitation, which took place around 10 am at the Jambargaon interchange in Vaijapur tehsil, saw protesters burning tyres on the expressway, blocking the traffic, an official said.
