Delhi protests tomorrow: What is open and what is closed on Sunday, 11 October; traffic restrictions and more

Delhi residents should prepare for travel disruptions on Sunday, 11 October, as protests continue amid demands for Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar's resignation. Markets, restaurants, shops and commercial establishments are expected to remain open across most of the city, but central Delhi and routes near the Shankar Road-Vande Mataram T-point may face police checks and diversions.

The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) plans to proceed with demonstrations despite previous detentions of 7,000 people on 10 October. Police denied permission for the Jantar Mantar protest, citing insufficient advance notice, safety concerns and potential traffic issues. However, the Dhaula Kuan stretch may also experience local restrictions or sudden diversions.

Delhi Metro restrictions from 10 October have been extended until 10 PM on 11 October, but station closures and timings have not been confirmed. Passengers are advised to check service information before their journeys. Police deployment, barricades and anti-riot vehicles remain in place around sensitive government buildings and central New Delhi. The Supreme Court scheduled a sitting regarding transport and movement restrictions, but its outcome remains unknown.

Travelers should check live traffic updates and avoid assuming every affected station will reopen, as the protests' reason behind the restrictions still persists.
