Traffic diversions announced well in advance is a good move. Hopefully, the police manage it smoothly. My office is on Sikar Road, so I'll be leaving early today! Thanks for the detailed update.

While I respect the office of the President, these VIP movements cause major disruption for common citizens. The entire city's schedule gets affected for a few hours of a program. The system needs to be less disruptive.

The logistical planning mentioned is impressive. Diverting heavy vehicles via ring roads and ensuring ambulance movement isn't blocked shows good forethought. Hope it works as planned on the ground.

President Murmu attending an event guided by Jagadguru Rambhadracharya is a powerful symbol. It's heartening to see our leaders connect with our spiritual heritage. A tight schedule indeed, from airport to Lok Bhavan to Harmada.

Good to see the authorities have at least provided a detailed advisory. Jaipur roads get chaotic easily. Citizens should cooperate, but the police also need to be helpful and guide people at diversions, not just shout.
