The Noida police have issued a traffic advisory for the Gautam Buddha Nagar parliamentary constituency in Uttar Pradesh, which borders Delhi, in preparation for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections on April 26th. The advisory specifically restricts traffic around the Phool Mandi (flower market) in Noida on April 25th and 26th. All types of vehicles, except for those on official election duty, will be prohibited from entering the internal roads surrounding the Phool Mandi complex during this period, as it will be used to store EVMs after the elections.

Ranhera, a village in Gautam Buddha Nagar Lok Sabha constituency, will boycott the upcoming Lok Sabha election due to an impending dislocation caused by the expansion of the Noida International Airport. The villagers are worried about losing their livelihoods and being forced to relocate to smaller plots of land. The Draft Master Plan-2041 prepared by the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) envisions a sustainable and well-connected city around the airport, but the villagers are skeptical about the promised benefits. They point to the experiences of residents from nearby villages who have already been relocated and are now struggling to find jobs.
