New Delhi, July 4 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) on Saturday demanded that shops in Delhi be de-sealed immediately without further delay.
Accordingly, in a letter to the Union Urban Development Minister Hardeep Singh Puri, CAIT demanded that "Delhi sealed shops should now be de -sealed immediately without further delay".
Besides, the traders' body also called for the finalisation of Delhi Rent Act, "ending a long running dispute between the land lords and tenants in Delhi".
Furthermore, CAIT demanded that traders should be allowed to participate in the consultation process of Master Plan 2041 which is being prepared for Delhi.
According to CAIT National Secretary General Praveen Khandelwal, estimates show that about 6,000 shops have been sealed in Delhi.
"Corona started since the beginning of the year 2020 and the traders of Delhi are faced with a big crisis of livelihood and in such a situation, it has become imperative that shops are immediately de-sealed," he was quoted as saying in a statement.
"Keeping this in view, the Central government should take an initiative in this matter and pass an ordinance in which all sealed shops should be opened and all other problems related to sealing should be postponed for the time being thereby giving all traders a fair chance to do business."
