Security has been ramped up in all parts of the city as Sonia Gandhi is scheduled to address a rally at Shivaji Park and President Kalam to attend a meeting at IIT Powai.

A large number of Congress Party supporters from across the state are likely to assemble at Mumbai's Shivaji Park Maidan and in view of that, the vehicular traffic around Bandra, Kalanagar, Mahim, Shivaji Park, Prabhadevi, Dadar and Sion is likely to be affected.

As a result, the entire of Western Express and Eastern Express highways also might face traffic problems.
