Patiala Municipal Corporation to earmark 7 more sites for street vendors
Patiala, March 9
The Municipal Corporation, Patiala, has decided to earmark as many as seven sites to street vendors in the city.
Municipal Corporation officials said the sites include ITI road, parking lot near Tagore Theatre, DLF Colony, DCW, a spot near bus stand and the Choti Baradari area.
They said as many as 400 street vendors would be allowed to sell vegetables and fruits at the the seven sites to facilitate people in nearby areas.
Civic body officials said the sites were earmarked after a MC team, led by Joint Commissioner Avikesh, visited them this morning.
They said: “We had recently shifted street vendors from Ragho Majra to a place near the Sanauri adda. Now, more vendors will be shifted after these sites are developed.”
The MC will also not allow street vendors to venture out on roads in areas which witness frequent traffic jams. — TNS
