Delhi Traffic Police held a complete carcade practice on Sunday as it prepares to welcome world leaders at the G20 Summit while India is the G20’s Presidency. On September 9 and 10, India will host the G20 Summit in its capital. Leaders and representatives from 40 nations, including the 20 member states, will attend the two-day summit. The national capital’s Shanti Van Chowk neighborhood served as the site of the carcade practice.
DCP Traffic Aalap Patel says, “Rehearsals are going on for the programmes that are scheduled on September 10. Full deployment is on the venues where delegations have to come on the same day. There was no congestion and traffic management was also fine. I would appeal Delhi public to also read the directories for September 8, 9 and 10 and contribute.”
Meanwhile, to avoid any unfavourable incidents, the Bomb Squad of the National Security Guard (NSG) conducted on Saturday an anti-sabotage sweep at different locations in the national capital ahead of the upcoming G20 Summit.
The Delhi Traffic Police conducted a complete dress rehearsal earlier on Saturday as part of its preparations for the upcoming G20 Summit. The Delhi Police has been training personnel who will be deployed at various locations prior to and during the high-profile summit since it began its preparations for the G20 Summit in earnest a few months ago. The staff has been instructed to concentrate on their soft skills while also receiving training to deal with the aftermath of potential hazards, such as the use of chemical and biological weapons.
The New Delhi G20 summit will see the “biggest participation” in the history of the grouping, with arrangements in place for the mega event, including those for the stay of leaders of member countries and the invited guest countries.
