“The owners of the 63 shops owe rent to the tune of Rs 1.60 crore. They have been issued final notices to clear the dues, but have failed to respond to the notices of the Municipal Corporation. Therefore, these shops will be sealed soon,” said Tomar, adding: “Shopkeepers should deposit their monthly rent timely to the Municipal Corporation to avoid the action of sealing.”
