The G20 Summit will take place on September 9 and 10 in the newly-built Bharat Mandapam convention centre at Delhi's Pragati Maidan. There will be a major increase in security and traffic management in the preparations for the arrival of the diplomats, resulting in increased traffic congestion in and around the surrounding areas. 

As per the official press release, as a result of the collaboration, users would gain the following benefits:

Real-time Traffic Updates: Up-to-date traffic conditions caused by VIP movements, routes, and other unanticipated circumstances

Route Closures and Traffic Diversions: Up-to-date information regarding route closures and traffic diversions

Alternate Routes: In the event that a route is closed due to traffic, alternate routes for the journey can also be found

Junction View: The 3D photorealistic depictions of all flyovers, turns, underpasses, and junctions on the app will help users and ensure they do not miss any turns

Safety Alerts: Essential safety notifications such as oncoming speed breakers, potholes, fallen trees, and dangerous curves will all be notified to the users

Speeding Alerts: The user's vehicle speed as well as the speed limit of each route will be displayed on the app, helping the user avoid unnecessary speeding fines. 

The company also claims that the user will only receive official advisories and critical information, allowing them to easily navigate in and around the city.

Under India's Presidency, several Heads of State, top officials from the European Union, guest countries, and heads of international organisations have been invited.
