This 5-day summit will run until 20 February and will include the participation of Heads of State, Heads of Government, Ministers, foreign delegates, and representatives of international organisations.

Use public transport

Registered delegates are strongly advised to use public transport, especially the Delhi metro, to reach the venue. Pragati Maidan metro station will be the most convenient station for delegates, who can enter the venue from Gate 10.

Prefer cabs

Due to limited parking space, the Delhi Police has advised delegates to use cabs rather than their own vehicles.

However, for those opting to travel by private vehicle, limited parking is available at the Delhi Zoo, Purana Qila Parking, and Jawaharlal Nehru (JLN) Stadium. Shuttle services will ply between these parking spots and the summit venues, and between the summit venues and Bharat Mandapam Gate 4.

Gate 4 will remain operational for entry only between 7.30 AM and 2:00 PM. Post 2:00 PM, access through Gate 4 will be regulated/restricted as per security protocol.

Delegates are advised to use the golf carts provided within the Bharat Mandapam complex to reach their respective venues.

Bharat Mandapam Gate 7

The I&B Ministry said that the entry from Bharat Mandapam Gate 7 will be operational only after 2:00 PM.

Before 2 PM, delegates are allowed to alight in front of Gate 7 and proceed via the Business Plaza to enter the Bharat Mandapam Convention Centre.

Access through other designated gates shall remain subject to security clearance and movement restrictions as per protocol.

The Ministry said that entry would be allowed from Gate 2 of Sushma Swaraj Bhawan for pedestrians, metro users, drop-off, and self-drive vehicles.
