An illegal fish market was removed by the Municipal Corporation, Yamunanagar-Jagadhri (MCYJ) from Adarsh Nagar (Jain Colony) of Ward17 here.

On the instructions of Municipal Commissioner Mahabir Parsad, the action was taken by a team of the MCYJ headed by Chief Sanitation Inspector (CSI) Anil Nain.

According to information, some residents of the area had complained about the fish market to the MCYJ.

“If the fish market is set up again, major action will be taken along with confiscation of goods,” said CSI Anil Nain.

He said that the fish vendors were repeatedly warned not to set up their stalls here, however, they continued to do so.
