Summary:
“Many shop owners on broadway allege that their sales have been hit when I opened my shop. How can a shop that measures barely 100 sq ft pose a threat to 5,000-6,000 sq ft establishments?” said Noushad. According to him, though the nearby shops stock their products in front of the respective outlets, the authorities conveniently choose to look the other way. After the blaze which raged through Broadway in May, the corporation had started a major drive to clear the area of street vendors. After returning home on September 8, Noushad will call on Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan to hand over the money thus collected..
