Traffic curbs for Modi oath-taking

All roads leading to Rashtrapati Bhavan will be closed to the general public between 4pm and 8pm starting Saturday. The arrangement shall be in place till Monday. Traffic police have taken the decision in wake of beefed-up security ahead of the swearing-in ceremony for PM-elect Narendra Modi on Monday.

Police have requested all government offices in the south and north blocks including those of the Armed Forces to announce half-day for employees for the next few days. The offices will be shut on Monday.
