Summary:
Unregistered vendors challaned for Rs 10K, shopkeepers Rs 2,000 by MCSandeep RanaTribune News ServiceChandigarh, September 18The Chandigarh Municipal Corporation’s double standards in carrying out encroachment drives stand exposed. In the case of encroachments in corridors outside showrooms/shops in the city, the corporation is conveniently releasing their goods after a challan of meagre Rs 2,000. As a result, the practice of massive encroachment outside shops has not been stopped. The challan of Rs 10,000 with no goods return policy against the unauthorised vendors has acted as a deterrent. Sectors 15, 32, 34, 35, 17, 18, 19, 22 and 26 have maximum encroachments outside shops and showrooms..
