Delhi Tightens Security and Traffic for Global AI Summit

Delhi prepares for the AI Impact Summit with increased security and traffic restrictions. Over 10,000 police, including special units, are deployed for VIP movement. Strict venue access via QR codes is enforced. The event coincides with board exams, prompting special travel arrangements for students.

Delhi is gearing up for the AI Impact Summit with heightened security measures and significant traffic controls. The summit, taking place from February 16 to 20, will feature delegates from more than 30 countries.

Strict access control to the venue, Bharat Mandapam, is in place, with QR code-based accreditation being a key security measure. A coordination cell is established to streamline intelligence sharing, traffic management, and response strategies throughout the summit duration.

Emphasis on traffic will involve deploying approximately 5,000 personnel to manage vehicular flow and diversions. Authorities have issued an advisory, especially since the event coincides with CBSE board exams, ensuring minimal impact on students' travel to testing centers.
