Vendors seek designated place in Mandi

Mandi, March 4

Roadside vendors have urged the state government to set up a designated place for them in Mandi town at suitable place. Due to the absence of a suitable place, they are forced to set up their stalls alongside roads to make livelihood.

Surender Kumar, the newly elected president of the roadside vendors’ union in Mandi, said, “Sometimes vendors face action from the Municipal Corporation or the police. Vendors are slapped with challans. Sometimes their products are destroyed by the law enforcing authorities. Also, the installation of stalls alongside roads creates traffic chaos.” — TNS
