The capital district will come under a tight security blanket with the arrival of Congress leader’s Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra on Sunday.
While the ongoing Onam festivities have thrown traffic haywire in the last few days, traffic regulations that will be in place during the next two days on account of the Congress rally as well as the pageantry that will mark the conclusion of the Onam celebrations on Monday are likely to further hit vehicular movement.
With the Bharat Jodo Yatra set to enter the district early Sunday, the Thiruvananthapuram Rural police will enforce traffic curbs along National Highway 66 from Kaliyikkavila from 6 a.m. Vehicles headed for Thiruvananthapuram and those in the opposite direction will be required to take alternative routes during the course of the rally.
