An incorrect survey conducted by Nagar Palika, Mussoorie, has resulted in the wrongful identification of a street vendor, severely impacting the vendor’s right to livelihood.
As a mark of protest, the affected street vendor staged a peaceful sit-in today at Jhula Ghar, Mussoorie, to draw attention to the serious consequences of such survey errors on street vendors’ lives and livelihoods.
The National Association of Street Vendors of India (NASVI) expresses deep concern over the incident and urges the concerned authorities to ensure that street vendor surveys are conducted in a fair, transparent, and accurate manner. Errors in identification not only cause undue hardship to vendors but also undermine trust in the survey process.
NASVI calls upon the authorities to immediately review the case, correct the error, and ensure justice for the affected vendor. Safeguarding the Right to Livelihood of street vendors is essential for inclusive urban development and social justice.uting to inclusive and sustainable urban livelihoods in Rishikesh.
