In their traffic advisory, the department requested the public to cooperate and avoid the following roads from 4 pm to 6 pm in the evening: Old Airport Road, Raj Bhavan Road, Infantry Road, Cubbon Road, Queen's Road and MG Road.

VP Jagdeep Dhankhar along with his wife Sudesh met Denmark's Crown Prince Frederik André Henrik Christian and Crown Princess Mary in New Delhi on Monday and held discussions on the "shared democratic traditions and friendly relations between the nations."

The Whitefield traffic police have also warned that there will be slow moving traffic around Siddhapura - Thubharahalli as the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) is carrying out some works in the area. The station requested commuters to plan accordingly.
