The Fiji High Commission in New Delhi has issued a public advisory urging Fijian nationals in India to exercise increased caution amid ongoing protests and student demonstrations in several parts of the country.

In the advisory, the High Commission said protests could lead to traffic disruptions, road closures and occasional clashes with law enforcement.

Fijians are being advised to avoid protest sites and large public gatherings, follow instructions from local authorities, and allow extra travel time due to possible traffic diversions.

The High Commission is also encouraging citizens to monitor local news and official updates before travelling.

It said the mission is continuing to closely monitor developments and reminded Fijian nationals requiring urgent consular assistance to contact the Fiji High Commission in New Delhi.

The advisory concludes by urging all Fijians in India to remain vigilant and prioritise their safety.
