The leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and India’s rising stature in the world are both highlighted by this summit. Additionally, the National Security Guard (NSG) Aerial Insertion Team has been rehearsing precise aerial drops on important high-rise facilities to hone their quick-response counter-terror capabilities. Overall, strong security precautions are in place.
- The national capital will be protected by around 130,000 security officers during the summit. This includes the 80,000-person Delhi Police force.
- Of these, 45,000 men will wear blue uniforms instead of the customary khaki, including commandos trained in helicopter rappelling and precise driving.
- To ensure an integrated aerospace defence in and around Delhi, the Indian Air Force is developing extensive measures.
- Establishing anti-drone systems in cooperation with the Indian military, Delhi Police, and paramilitary forces would help counter aerial threats.
- 400 firefighters will be available to respond to any situation.
- To rent 20 armoured limousines to carry the distinguished guests, the government has set up 18 crores.
- At the time of the summit, strict controls on entry and exit will be implemented at New Delhi’s borders.
