Authorities plan to restrict vehicular movement in Delhi's Connaught Place from 3 pm today as the Chief Justice of India leads a Tiranga march.

Delhi police have announced that traffic will be limited in Connaught Place starting at 3 pm today to accommodate the Chief Justice of India's Tiranga march. The march, aimed at promoting national unity, is expected to draw large crowds along the central business district. Motorists are advised to use alternate routes and avoid the area during the specified hours. Police personnel will be on the ground to manage the flow and ensure safety for participants and commuters alike. The restrictions are temporary and will be lifted once the march concludes.

The city’s traffic control centre has urged commuters to plan ahead, citing potential delays on nearby arterial roads. Public transport services, including Delhi Metro, are expected to operate normally, but stations close to Connaught Place may experience higher footfall. Residents in the vicinity have been asked to keep noise levels down and cooperate with law‑enforcement officials.

Organisers of the Tiranga march have welcomed the cooperation of the authorities, stating that the event is a peaceful demonstration of patriotism. No further disruptions are anticipated beyond the planned traffic curbs.
