The proposed stay of the Egyptian delegation at a hotel in Saket, several kilometres from central Delhi where the other nine BRICS delegations are staying, has emerged as one of the biggest logistical challenges for the Delhi Traffic Police ahead of the summit. Unlike the other nine delegations, the Egyptian group is staying at a hotel in Saket, an area that officials said is already prone to heavy traffic congestion. The remaining delegations are staying at the Taj Mahal, The Oberoi, Taj Palace, The Leela Palace and ITC Maurya in central Delhi.&nbsp;The BRICS Summit is scheduled to take place at Bharat Mandapam in central Delhi on Saturday and Sunday, while the BRICS Business Forum started on Friday. Nearly 4,800 traffic police personnel have been deployed across the city to manage the movement of dignitaries. Officials said the additional distance and traffic congestion in Saket have complicated the arrangements, requiring the police to prepare more elaborate routes and escort plans specifically for the Egyptian delegation.&nbsp;“A controlled area essentially means that real time decisions on diversions and road closures will be made and those commuting on those roads should constantly check social media and Google maps before leaving,” a traffic officer said. The Delhi Police has deployed nearly 30,000 personnel for the summit, including 15,000 city police personnel and 200 companies of paramilitary forces. Traffic is expected to be affected around Bharat Mandapam throughout the day due to security arrangements. Roads in areas including Mahipalpur, Dhaula Kuan, Subramaniam Bharti Marg, Teen Murti Marg, Akbar Road, Tolstoy Road and Barakhamba Road are likely to face greater restrictions, particularly during VIP movements, a second officer said.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/defence-pulse/how-much-military-power-now-sits-inside-the-expanded-brics-1789110944087">How much military power now sits inside the expanded BRICS?</a>&nbsp;Police said restrictions will affect Tees January Marg, Akbar Road, Teen Murti Marg, Mother Teresa Crescent, Sardar Patel Marg and Janpath.

Delhi Police on Friday registered an FIR on a complaint alleging that student Sahil Lochav suffered pellet gun injuries during the July 20 protest at Jantar Mantar. The FIR was registered hours after Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi staged a dharna at Parliament Street Police Station, demanding action on the complaint. The Congress had alleged that police initially refused to register an FIR despite Lochav approaching them with a written complaint. On Friday, Gandhi accompanied the student to the police station and pressed authorities to take action.&nbsp;After the FIR was registered on Lochav's complaint, Gandhi and Lochav showed a copy of the FIR to media persons. Gandhi subsequently ended his more than six-hour dharna outside the Parliament Street police station. Earlier on Friday, Gandhi had sat on a dharna outside the office of the Deputy Commissioner of Police at Parliament Street Police Station, alleging that Delhi Police had failed to act on the student's complaint. “Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition, is on a dharna outside the DCP office, New Delhi, alleging that ‘Delhi Police refused to file FIR in the Pellet gun victim case’,” the Congress said in a post on X.<h2>What is the case?</h2>According to the Congress, Lochav, accompanied by his lawyers, submitted a written complaint to Delhi Police on August 14. The party claimed that the matter was followed up on August 17 through email and telephone calls, but no action was taken. The Congress also alleged that police neither provided an acknowledgement of the complaint nor an I/O number.&nbsp;Gandhi accompanied Lochav to the police station on Friday to demand registration of the case. The Congress maintained that the alleged offence was cognisable and that an FIR was therefore required to be registered.

The second week of Parliament's Monsoon Session is expected to witness intense political confrontation after the first week was disrupted by nationwide student protests over the alleged NEET paper leak. Although the protests have ended following the resignation of former Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, the opposition is preparing to raise fresh questions over the alleged use of force by Delhi Police during the July 20 protest march.

Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi has written to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, seeking answers on the alleged deployment of pellet guns and plainclothes personnel against protesting students. Congress and other opposition parties are also expected to raise issues including the alleged Ram Janmabhoomi embezzlement case, the proposed India–US trade agreement, agricultural concerns, ethanol policy, and fresh protests planned by transport operators.

The Delhi Lieutenant Governor has authorised the police commissioner to exercise the powers of a detaining authority under the National Security Act (NSA), 1980, for a period of three months, from July 19 to October 18, 2026. This order has created a major controversy with some sections on X calling out the authorities for extending the powers amid swelling protests by the Cockroach Janta Pary (CJP). However, Delhi Police clarified saying that the detention powers order are a “routine, quarterly extension” and is conventionally renewed every three months. It denied reports caliming that the extension has been granted to “suppress the ongoing CJP protests.”<h2>What the order means?</h2>The authorisation empowers the Delhi Police Commissioner to issue preventive detention orders under the provisions of the NSA. The Delhi Police can detain individuals without formal criminal charges if they are suspected of threatening national security or public order. Under this, Police can arrest a person before they commit a crime based on suspicion alone. The detained person can be held without a formal trial or charges for up to 12 months. Standard constitutional protections, like the right to consult a lawyer immediately upon arrest, do not apply under the NSA. The police do not need to produce the individual before a magistrate within 24 hours, which is the norm for regular criminal arrests.
