Educational institutions across Delhi will observe a holiday on September 11 as the city gears up to host the BRICS Summit, according to an official circular issued by authorities. The two-day summit, bringing together leaders from Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, is scheduled to commence on September 12.
The pre-summit closure has been implemented to facilitate security arrangements and logistical preparations required for the international gathering. September 13 will mark the conclusion of the summit proceedings.
The decision affects schools across the national capital region, with authorities citing the need for unhindered access to key venues and thoroughfares during the preparatory phase. Such closures are customary practice when Delhi hosts major international summits and conferences.
The BRICS grouping represents one of the world's most significant multilateral forums, bringing together some of the globe's major developing economies. The September summit will see high-level diplomatic engagement and bilateral interactions among member nations.
