<\/div>\n<\/div>\nNew Delhi: <\/b><\/p>\n
Luxury cars worth crores are being brought from Mumbai, Chandigarh, and other cities for the upcoming G20 summit in Delhi. Delhi is getting a makeover too with ramped up facilities in view of the G20 summit set to be held at the revamped Pragati Maidan on September 9-10.<\/p>\n
With the delegations of over 20 member countries and other invitees set to visit the city for the event, the requirement for high-end cars has hit the roof.<\/p>\n
Cab rental firms whose fleet boast of such hot wheels have been roped in to meet the massive demand.<\/p>\n
Iqbal Singh, a city-based operator, said they have been buying new cars and getting priority delivery in view of the summit.<\/p>\n
“The demand for luxury cars is so high that Delhi operators can’t fulfil it. We have purchased seven-eight cars. In Delhi, around 30-35 cars from among E-S class have been bought. Besides, cars are also being brought from Mumbai, Rajasthan, Punjab, and Chandigarh,” said Mr Singh.<\/p>\n
Several luxury cars were part of his fleet, including a Maybach that he claimed was the first luxury car to arrive in India since the Covid period.<\/p>\n
“It has been booked for the G20 summit, but it’s not known which high-profile person it has been assigned to. We were supposed to get it by October-November. But the government helped and Mercedes too understood the situation, and we got it prior to its scheduled delivery,” he added.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the city civic body too has been tasked with a beautification drive ahead of the big September event. This includes the installation of designer fountains, sculptures and flower pots along the roads.<\/p>\n
Besides, footpaths are being refurbished and walls painted. Fountains have been installed on important roads including the Janpath and Sansad Marg.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
