G20 Summit 2023: Delhi Police Enforces Section 144, Declaring City a No-Fly Zone

The eagerly anticipated G20 Summit for the year 2023 is set to take place in the bustling city of Delhi. As preparations ramp up to welcome world leaders and dignitaries, the Delhi Police have taken stringent security measures, including the implementation of Section 144 and the declaration of a no-fly zone over the city. These actions are aimed at ensuring the smooth conduct of the summit while prioritizing the safety and security of all attendees.

The imposition of Section 144 is a preventive measure employed by law enforcement agencies to maintain public order and curb any potential disturbances during high-profile events. Under this section, the gathering of more than a certain number of people is prohibited, and various activities that could pose a threat to public safety are curtailed. The Delhi Police's decision to implement Section 144 during the G20 Summit reflects their commitment to upholding peace and security within the city.

Simultaneously, the declaration of a no-fly zone over Delhi is a strategic move to ensure the security of the summit from potential aerial threats. By restricting the airspace, authorities can effectively monitor and control air traffic, preventing any unauthorized aircraft from entering the vicinity. This measure not only safeguards the dignitaries and attendees but also the residents of the city, ensuring their safety from potential airborne risks.

While these security measures may inconvenience the local residents to some extent, it's crucial to understand that they are temporary and put in place to guarantee the success of an event that holds global significance. The G20 Summit serves as a platform for world leaders to discuss and address pressing global issues, including economic challenges, sustainable development, and international cooperation. Therefore, ensuring a secure environment for these discussions is of paramount importance.

As Delhi gears up to host the G20 Summit in 2023, the implementation of Section 144 and the establishment of a no-fly zone by the Delhi Police demonstrate the city's commitment to being a gracious and secure host. These measures, while temporary, play a pivotal role in creating an atmosphere conducive to productive diplomatic discussions and ensuring the safety of attendees and residents alike. The world will be watching as Delhi showcases its ability to strike a balance between security and hospitality on the global stage.

Bangladesh Military Expresses Discontent Over Chinese Weapons; Reports 'Sub-Standard' and Faulty Parts

  Bangladesh, a traditional buyer of Chinese military equipment, has raised grievances with Beijing regarding the delivery of defective components and technical malfunctions in its imported military hardware. This issue is not unique to Bangladesh, as other nations like Myanmar have also encountered problems with Chinese fighter jets, according to an ET report. Experts in the Chinese defense industry argue that Beijing lacks the expertise to manufacture highly sophisticated military hardware and is not yet considered a top-tier producer of modern defense equipment. They claim that much of China's weapon systems are based on outdated technology copied from the West. Developing countries often opt for Chinese weapons due to their lower cost compared to similar systems from Western countries. China sells arms through state-run export organizations like the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), NORINCO, and CVIC. Sources familiar with the matter told ET that the Bangladesh mil...

In the latest UNSC meeting, the United States, Britain, France, and India were among 14 nations to "strongly condemn" the latest North Korea launch on Friday, which was reported to have landed about 125 miles (200 kilometers) from ...
