Vendors given a day to clear encroachments
Vegetable vendors at the town market staged a road roko
in front of the market protesting the ‘operation eviction’ launched by
the municipality in clearing encroachment of thatched structures at the
entrance to the market. The merchants demanded a day’s time for
voluntary removal of the encroachments to avoid any loss. The agitation
continued for a while till municipal officials came to the scene. The
officials conceded their demand but warned of stern action if the
encroachments were not removed by Wednesday.
