NDMC to organise 2-day winter rose show
The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) on Friday said it would organise a two-day Winter Rose Show, starting from Saturday at the India-Africa Friendship Rose Garden in Chanakyapuri here.
Delhi's upscale Connaught Place business hub remained closed in the first half of Tuesday in protest against a new traffic and parking plan for the heritage marketplace.
According to the New Delhi Traders Association, business owners and shopkeepers decided to shut their shops between 11 am to 3 pm.
