Brics leaders gather in New Delhi as bloc seeks greater global influence
Leaders of the Brics nations are gathering in New Delhi on Saturday for talks aimed at strengthening trade and investment ties and giving emerging economies a greater voice on the world stage, as conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East test the expanding bloc’s unity.
The Delhi Police has issued a traffic advisory for September 12, the day India hosts the 18th BRICS Leaders Summit. Traffic movement will be regulated from 9:30 am to 9:30 pm across several key stretches in central Delhi, affecting over 35 roads and involving diversions at 22 points. The restrictions are aimed at minimizing disruption to public mobility during the high-level movement of international dignitaries attending the summit.
Commuters are advised to plan their journeys in advance, allowing extra travel time, and using the Delhi Metro wherever possible to avoid congestion. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has announced that Metro train services will commence at 6 am across all lines on Sunday to facilitate the movement of students and the general public.
