CAIT questions the impact of these protests on traders' livelihoods during the festive season and demands accountability. It plans a national meeting after Diwali to decide further action, including observing a nationwide 'Dhikkar Diwas' to protest such disruptions, emphasizing the balance between the right to protest and the right to trade.
