The Delhi Traffic Police has issued an advisory ahead of the Cockroach Janta Party’s protest at Jantar Mantar on Saturday, warning of disruptions in traffic movement and diversions along 30 routes.
This includes Dhaula Kuan, Mandi House, Connaught Place, Patel Chowk and RML Hospital roundabout. Security has been tightened ahead of CJP’s protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and the special intensive revision (SIR) exercise. The police have denied permission for the protest. Separately, the route from Rangpuri towards Moulsari Avenue was also affected by traffic snarls. The cops advised commuters to plan their journeys in advance, particularly if they are travelling to railway stations, inter-state bus terminals (ISBT), or airports via New Delhi and Central Delhi. These include:
Saturday’s traffic diversions will come into effect from 6 am owing to the “law and order situation”, the traffic police said. This comes even as key stretches connecting Gurugram and Delhi witnessed traffic congestion on Friday evening, owing to a police checkpoint at the Arjangarh border. The police has provided the list of routes which will be affected on Saturday, according to a post on their official X handle.
