The Connaught Place market will remain open during the BRICS summit in Delhi from September 11 to 13, even as traffic restrictions are expected to affect movement in parts of the city, the New Delhi Traders Association (NDTA) said on Thursday.

NDTA Joint Secretary Amit Gupta said the market has not been closed and Delhi residents can continue to shop and dine at Connaught Place during regular market hours.

“Connaught Place market is open from Friday to Sunday during the BRICS summit in Delhi. However, with traffic restrictions in place, customers are advised to follow the traffic advisory to reach the market,” he said.

The clarification comes ahead of the summit, which will see India host leaders from 11 BRICS member countries and 10 partner nations, besides other invited delegations.
