JAMSHEDPUR – Displaced street vendors from Mango seek MLA Saryu Roy’s help for dedicated market spaces.
The National Hawker Federation led the delegation. They presented their concerns through a memorandum.
Moreover, these vendors lack proper workspaces. Their displacement continues for almost two years.
Federation Secretary Uttam Chakraborty highlighted legal provisions. The 2014 Act protects vendor rights.
Meanwhile, government-certified vendors await space allocation. They face continuous eviction threats.
Furthermore, the Act mandates dedicated vending zones. These should accommodate certified vendors.
The situation affects hundreds of families. Their livelihoods remain uncertain.
Additionally, the Town Vending Committee members joined the delegation. They supported vendor demands.
On the other hand, MLA Roy showed positive response. He promised constructive steps.
Meanwhile, a joint meeting was proposed. It will include Municipal Corporation officials.
The delegation included various community leaders. Sunita Poyda participated actively.
Furthermore, similar vendor issues exist nationwide. Over 10 million street vendors face displacement.
The 2014 Act provides comprehensive protection. It ensures dignified work environments.
"Every certified vendor deserves proper space," stated a federation member.
