How does one create this overlay on Maps?

Someone shared this with me, and I have not seen it before. It’s a part of public Maps in the location.

It seems like the “purple” line is tagged with hellotravel.com

Is this created by that company? or is this created by Google? What is this and how does one create this?

When I open any location within this area, even in incognito, I can still see the purple lines.

@StephenAbraham Interesting thing. Seems the line is created for an event in India for which that marked area will be affected with heavy traffic or road closure.

I am also curious to know who created this and how this can be created.

@StephenAbraham I would like to know how to show a purple color line.
