New Delhi: Delhi Police on Thursday warned against spreading rumours by wrongly depicting videos of Chehlum procession as a communal protest ahead of the G20 Summit.

The Shia Muslim community observed the religious observance of Chehlum in the capital city on Thursday.

Delhi Police posted on X (formerly Twitter), “Some social media handles are wrongly projecting videos of Chehlum procession, as communal protest before G20 Summit. The Chehlum procession is a traditional one and is carried out with due permission from the law-enforcing agencies. Please do not spread rumours”.

On Wednesday, Delhi Police announced traffic restrictions for the Chehlum procession asking people to take the metro in view of the religious event, officials said.

Chehlum is observed on the 40th day after Muharram which commemorates the martyrdom of Imam Hussain, the grandson of Prophet Hazrat Mohammad. The main Chehlum procession including Tazia, Alam etc., was started from Pahari Bhojla on Wednesday at 8.30 a.m. due to the G20 Summit.

It proceeds to Dargah Shah-e-Mardan and later to Karbala via Chitli Qabar, Matia Mahal, Jama Masjid, Hauz Qazi, Ajmeri Gate, Paharganj Bridge, Chelmsford Road, and New Delhi Railway Station in north Delhi.

The G20 Leaders’ Summit is slated to be held on September 9-10 at the newly built international convention centre at Pragati Maidan.
