Srinagar Traffic Police on Friday, 16 October 2026, announced the postponement of the ‘Paddle for Peace’ event that was scheduled for 18 October 2026. The police withdrew the earlier traffic advisory and said the notified restrictions will not be imposed.

Earlier, the Traffic Police had announced the closure of Boulevard Road from 5 am on Sunday, 11 October 2026, to facilitate the event. With the postponement, the planned road closure will not take place.
The postponement of ‘Paddle for Peace’ means the traffic restrictions tied to it are no longer in force, leaving Boulevard Road open as usual. The Traffic Police’s statement confirms the event is delayed, but gives no reason or new date. For commuters and residents who had planned around the Sunday closure, the immediate impact is relief from disruption. What remains open is when the event will be rescheduled.
