In anticipation of the upcoming Independence Day celebrations, the authorities in New Delhi have taken proactive measures to ensure the safety and security of citizens and dignitaries. Section 144 has been imposed around prominent historical sites such as the Red Fort and Rajghat. 

Protocol Alert! | Section 144, a standard protocol implemented during such events, prohibits the assembly of groups and restricts the movement of people within designated areas. The primary objective is to prevent any potential disruptions and maintain public order throughout the festivities. The Red Fort, a powerful symbol of India's struggle for independence, and Rajghat, the revered memorial of Mahatma Gandhi both hold a historical significance. 

As the nation prepares to mark another year of its sovereignty, these precautionary measures serve as a testament to the responsible approach taken by the authorities in creating a secure environment for the celebrations.
