# Delhi traffic advisory for Oct 2: Rajghat, Jantar Mantar restrictions 2026-10-01T18:07:13+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets Delhi Traffic Police has issued a traffic advisory for Friday, 2 October, for programmes at Rajghat and Vijay Ghat to mark Gandhi Jayanti and the 122nd birth anniversary of former prime minister Lal Bahadur Shastri. Special arrangements will be in place from 5 am to 11 am, Hindustan Times reports. Times Now reports that restrictions and diversions will also be in place around Jantar Mantar, Parliament Street and adjoining areas. Movement from Connaught Place towards Patel Chowk and from Patel Chowk towards GPO will be diverted. Section 163 of BNSS will remain applicable in the specified area. Both advisories urge commuters to plan alternate routes, follow traffic personnel directions and avoid unnecessary travel through the affected areas. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both outlets report the same advisory in uniform, neutral wire-style copy with no editorial slant. Hindustan Times adds a separate report on Barapullah Phase-III congestion on its first day, but that is a different story and does not affect the advisory coverage. The advisory itself is a straight public-information bulletin with no political framing. The concrete item to watch is whether the restrictions and diversions ease traffic as intended on 2 October. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - hindustantimes.com (neutral report) Straight advisory bulletin, no slant on the advisory itself - timesnownews.com (neutral report) Straight advisory bulletin, no slant on the advisory itself This brief was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above, so one read covers every framing they carry.
