CAIT Urges Delhi LG to Designate Protest Sites to Protect Trade Activities
The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) has urged Delhi Lieutenant Governor Taranjit Singh Sandhu to designate specific protest sites on the city's outskirts to minimize disruptions to business activities. CAIT highlighted that repeated protests and traffic disturbances over the past month have affected trade for nearly 14 days, impacting traders, shopkeepers, vendors, and related sectors. While acknowledging the democratic right to peaceful protests, CAIT emphasized the need to balance this with the right to conduct business and maintain livelihoods in Delhi, a major economic hub.
