Amritsar, December 17

Vendors at 22 Number Phatak in Islamabad submitted a memorandum to the Municipal Corporation Commissioner and demanded alternate space to construct kiosks. The MC had removed 10 kiosks for the construction of railway overbridge.

Ved Parkash, one of the vendor, said, “I am running my small business for the last several years. It was my sole source of income. We have families to feed. Earlier, the MC had vacated our kiosks at Putaligarh. The MC should provide us some alternative space to run our businesses”.

Amarjit Singh, another vendor, said, “We have cooperated with the MC and vacated vends. Now, the MC should provide us space to install kiosks on compassionate grounds”.
