Delhi Police received hoax bomb call near Jama Masjid ahead of G20 Summit 2023, prompting high alert.
Amid the heightened security in the national capital for the G20 Summit, Delhi Police received a call on Friday regarding a bomb being found in the area near Jama Masjid. The police, along with the dog squad and the Bomb Disposal Squad, were immediately deployed to the spot. After a thorough investigation, it was revealed that nothing suspicious was found. A child had seen an abandoned bag and alerted the police, believing it may contain a bomb.

The Delhi Police is on high alert and any disobedience of the law by citizens will be dealt with utmost strictness. India's National Security Guard's four-legged K9 sniffer dog squad is part of the security arrangements, alongside the Indian Army bomb disposal squads. The counter-drone systems are also part of the Indian Army security teams deployed for the summit.

The Delhi Traffic Police has issued a detailed traffic advisory for commuters during the G20 Summit. Alternative routes and modes of transport have been suggested to ensure a smooth journey throughout Delhi. The Group of Twenty comprises 19 countries and the European Union. India assumed the G20 Presidency on December 1 last year with the theme 'One Earth, One Family, One Future'.

The G20 Summit is currently taking place in New Delhi at the state-of-the-art Bharat Mandapam Convention Centre at Pragatai Maidan. Prominent leaders such as US President Joe Biden, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida have arrived in the national capital to attend the Summit.

This is an extremely proud moment for India, commented Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on the occasion of New Delhi hosting the G20 Summit.
