HI Saikat,
There is no way to lock multiple task squares.
We usually suggest to people they not work on squares that have someone
working next to them to avoid conflicts. So it can be partially
addressed by training or task instructions.
There is a way to use custom task "squares" so you could make task
"squares" that are a length of road that one person could check out.
I have not done this, but it is possible. There are some examples in the
HOT Tasking Manager.
Here is one example:
http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/1523
The other thing to keep in mind is that if you are using the main OSM
live database, people could edit a road even not using the tasking
manager. Not very likely depending on where you are editing, but it is
possible.
Cheers,
Blake

there any way to lock multiple boxes together? Is there any
inter-project locking mechanism so that when one project is accessing an
area another won't be allowed the same area? Actually I am trying to
figure out a way for users to map one box and lock the surrounding boxes
so that others are not able to edit/modify another part of the same road
which might be spread across multiple boxes. I want to prevent editing
multiple parts of the same road parallely by two users in two tasks.
