PoliticsNHRC Directs Not to Remove Street Vendors During Festive Season
The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has instructed all States and Union Territories to protect the livelihoods and human rights of local vendors, street vendors, hawkers, potters, and small traders during Navratri, Diwali, and Chhath Puja. This follows complaints of unnecessary removal, seizure of goods, fines, and harassment. NHRC emphasized that eviction should only occur for fire or public safety reasons.
