Delhi Traffic Police issues advisory for citizens amid protests by Congress workers

The Delhi Traffic Police on Tuesday issued a new advisory for daily travelers in wake of Congress protests over the Enforcement Directorate’s summon to Rahul Gandhi.

According to the advisory, travelers may avoid commuting through several locations including Motilal Nehru Marg, Akbar Road, Janpath, Gol Methi junction, Tughlak Road Junction, Claridges Junction, Q-point Junction, Sunehri Masjid Junction, Maulana Azad Road Junction and Man Singh Road between 7am and 12pm as traffic movement will not be possible on these roads.

“Due to special traffic arrangements, inward movement of buses will be restricted in New Delhi beyond Gol Dak Khana Junction, Patel Chowk, Windsor Place, Teen Murti Chowk, Prithviraj Road,” said Delhi Traffic Police.

Delhi Traffic Police further asked to avoid SP Marg, Dhaula Kuan Flyover and Gurgaon road between 10.45am and 11.15 am due to special traffic arrangements.

Meanwhile, section 144 of CrPC has been imposed around Akbar Road in central Delhi.

A day after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was questioned for over 10 hours by the ED in a money-laundering probe linked to the National Herald newspaper, he will appear before the central probe agency again today.

On Monday, Gandhi arrived at the ED’s office in the national capital with his sister and Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, amid a huge march by the party workers along with him to the office.

Congress leaders and workers have staged protests holding placards at AICC headquarters in New Delhi over the summons. Various leaders, including Chhattisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel and Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot, took part in the party’s Satyagraha march.

Following the day-long protest, the Congress party said that senior leader and former union minister P Chidambaram suffered a fracture in his left rib after he was pushed away by Delhi Police during the party’s protest in support of Rahul Gandhi.
