Traffic jams were witnessed on roads leading to Connaught Place from all directions.
Vehicular movement was restricted near India Gate as Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Li held talks at the adjacent Hyderabad House.
Li's visit to Rajghat led to traffic troubles on Vikas Marg as well as near Pragati Maidan.
Anticipating protests by Tibetans against Li's visit, police have decided to close carriageways of Sardar Patel Marg from Panchsheel Marg up to Dhaula Kuan today. No traffic will be allowed on this stretch, police said.
