Delhi Gearing Up To Host The ASEAN Summit

The ASEAN summit is scheduled to take place between January 19 and 30 in the national capital and Delhi is all set to be beautified.  Overhead cables are being put underground and shops have been advised to sport an aesthetic look with uniform display boards. Some shops have already changed the name display boards to the new prescribed format.  A meeting was also held with the service providers and discoms to put the overhead wires, electric or communication lines, underground and work on it is already underway. Delhi Lt Governor Anil Baijal inspected the preparations in the historic Chandni Chowk, Jama Masjid and Red Fort areas. He said that all the civic agencies must take special care of the heritage places in their jurisdiction as they will be a centre of attraction for the international guests arriving from different countries for the summit.
