  "account": "Delhi is fortifying security for the arrival of Chinese President Xi Jinping following Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent visit, as the BRICS summit continues. Both leaders are set to embark on a chartered flight, with Xi Jinping arriving via Palam Air Force Station and Putin at Indira Gandhi International Airport. Upon arrival, Xi Jinping will stay at the Taj Hotel while Putin resides at the Maurya Hotel. To ensure a secure environment, Delhi has bolstered security measures, including fortified accommodations and multi-layered security arrangements. Over 15,000 personnel, comprising local police and paramilitary forces, have been deployed to maintain a safe atmosphere during the summit. For Putin's protection, a four-layer security system has been implemented, consisting of a dedicated close protection team, Delhi Police officers, commandos, and local police officers. Similar security protocols have been established for Xi Jinping, with heightened surveillance and restricted movement around the hotels. Authorities have conducted route rehearsals to assess security arrangements, and traffic diversions have been enacted to facilitate regulated vehicular movement. Over 4,800 traffic personnel have been enlisted for summit-related arrangements. The BRICS summit, themed \"Building for Resilience, Innovation, Cooperation and Sustainability,\" will see leaders discuss intra-BRICS cooperation and address global and regional issues of mutual concern.",
