Delhi traders flag potential impact on 21 markets from INDIA bloc’s November 1 rally, seek postponement
It projected that the November 1 rally could bring commercial activity across Old Delhi to a standstill, resulting in losses of up to ₹10,000 crore
The proposed rally of the Congress-led INDIA bloc on November 1 in Delhi's Ramlila Maidan could disrupt commerce in 21 significant wholesale and retail markets in the city, according to the Chamber of Trade and Industry (CTI). These markets, including Chandni Chowk, Sadar Bazaar, Khari Baoli, and Bhagirath Palace, are crucial during the festive season, which spans Dhanteras and Deepavali.
The CTI has demanded that the rally be postponed until after November 10, or alternatively, moved to a venue outside commercial areas to avoid potential disruptions.
