“2,500 stickers have been sold for ₹100 each to party organisers in Connaught Place. The organisers will issue these special entry passes to their guests, who will have to display them on their vehicles to enter the outer, middle and inner circles of Connaught Place Circle from Tuesday 8pm onwards. These stickers will allow vehicles beyond restricted areas and to park in designated lots managed by the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) in Connaught Place. Vehicle owners will have to pay parking attendants to park vehicles,” said additional commissioner of police (traffic zone 2) Dinesh Kumar Gupta.

Four hundred traffic personnel will be deployed in and around Connaught Place and India Gate alone.

The traffic police have prepared 12 points that will be sealed for vehicles, except those with valid entry stickers. There will be 14 such points around the India Gate Circle, and 135 points in all of New Delhi district, said Gupta.
“Our focus will be on identifying and prosecuting motorists involved in rash and drunken driving. We are deploying 46 dedicated traffic prosecution teams with alcometers to check for drunken driving. Fifty motorcycle teams will be deployed for chase and challan and 16 cranes will be deployed to remove vehicles parked at unauthorised places,” he added.
