Authorities have imposed traffic restrictions on key roads in Delhi today as the BRICS summit convenes in the capital.
The BRICS summit, hosted in New Delhi, has led city officials to enforce traffic restrictions on several major thoroughfares today. The move aims to facilitate smooth movement for delegates and security personnel attending the high‑profile meeting.
Delhi traffic police have announced that selected arterial roads will see limited vehicular flow, with some lanes closed or reserved for official convoys. Commuters are advised to avoid these routes and seek alternative paths.
Public transport services, including the Metro and city buses, are being urged to accommodate increased passenger volumes as private vehicle movement is curtailed. Authorities have also deployed additional traffic personnel to manage the altered patterns and ensure safety.
The restrictions are expected to remain in place for the duration of the summit, with periodic updates to be issued as the schedule progresses.
