Islamic groups to hold protest march in New Delhi, India, Nov. 24. Increased security, transport disruptions likely.
Islamic groups plan to hold a protest march in New Delhi on Nov. 24 to denounce the proposed Waqf Amendment Bill which they allege will allegedly seize Islamic community properties. Although the exact timing and route plan remains unknown, demonstrations typically occur between late morning and early afternoon and target prominent government buildings, public squares, sports venues, and thoroughfares. The gathering could draw thousands of participants.
Authorities will likely monitor the march and may move to disperse overly disruptive crowds. Clashes between police and activists cannot be ruled out. Transport disruptions are likely along the route. Associated business disruptions are possible.
As a precaution, avoid the protest march. Depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance. Allow additional travel time near gathering sites. Plan accordingly for possible localized business disruptions. Heed all official transport and security advisories.
