The country’s capital New Delhi is fully prepared to welcome a very important and prestigious diplomatic event of international level, but behind this grandeur, such an impenetrable maze of security has been prepared whose example is difficult to find. Delhi Police and central security agencies have geared up for the upcoming ‘BRICS Summit’, which is considered a symbol of India’s growing influence and diplomatic power on the global stage. The security arrangements of the capital have been so tightened that every nook and corner of the city has been tightly guarded by the security forces. Keeping in mind the arrival of all the senior heads of state, guests and foreign representatives from all over the world, Delhi has been completely transformed into a high-security fort, so that not even a bird can escape during this global event.
Major security campaign in the capital and deployment of 15,000 soldiers
Keeping in mind the sensitivity of the BRICS summit and VVIP movement, Delhi Police has prepared a massive and multi-layered security plan, under which a total of more than 15,000 police personnel have been fielded. In this, senior officers of Delhi Police, commandos, traffic police and local police stations have been deployed in 24-hour shifts. There is a tight vigil of police personnel around every intersection, hotel, VVIP route and conference venue so that any kind of anti-social or suspicious activity can be stopped immediately. The security arrangements are being directly monitored by the top officials of Delhi Police themselves so that there is no scope for lapse in the security cycle.
200 companies of paramilitary forces and tight guard of NSG commandos
Not only Delhi Police, but about 200 companies of the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF), which specialize in the country’s internal security and anti-terrorism operations, have also been deployed in the security arrangements of the capital. These paramilitary forces have been deployed at sensitive areas, metro stations, markets and borders so that any emergency situation can be dealt with immediately. Apart from this, Black Cat Commandos, SWAT teams and anti-drone systems of the National Security Guard (NSG) have also been deployed at strategic locations in view of any possible terrorist threat or VVIP security. With these state-of-the-art security measures, it is being ensured that all foreign guests visiting the country’s capital remain in a completely safe environment.
Every nook and corner is under surveillance with 500 CCTV cameras and modern technology.
In the security arrangements of this time’s BRICS Summit, along with traditional police patrolling, modern technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) based surveillance systems are being used extensively. More than 500 high-definition CCTV cameras, equipped with facial recognition technology, have been installed at the conference venue and all major routes connected to it. The live feed of all these cameras is being continuously monitored from the special control room of Delhi Police so that the movement of any suspicious person in crowded areas can be immediately monitored. Apart from this, special Smart Traffic Management System has also been activated to avoid traffic jams and maintain smooth traffic system.
India’s reputation on the global stage and special advisory for city dwellers
Hosting the conference of a major global organization like BRICS in India is a moment of great diplomatic and economic pride for the country, which underlines India’s growing leadership across the world. The security agencies are fully committed to ensure peaceful and successful conduct of this grand event, however, due to this tight security, common citizens may have to face traffic diversions and slight restrictions in movement for some time. The administration has already issued a traffic advisory for the citizens of Delhi and tourists coming from outside so that people do not face any inconvenience. This unprecedented security arrangement in the capital proves that India is fully capable and a leader in hosting global events and ensuring the safety of its guests.
