The gate just opposite to the Red Fort remains closed for vehicular entry from 9am to 9pm.  A heavy fine of Rs 20,000 is levied for breaking the norms. 

The traffic police guards the track meticulously, "The moving traffic is much more organized now, it is much more spacious, but yes we need support from the public in following the rules and regulation..", one of the inspector was quoted saying.
