National Association of Street Vendors of India (NASVI) organized a significant meeting today in Jodhpur to discuss the challenges faced by street vendors. The meeting was attended by NASVI’s National Coordinator Mr. Arbind Singh, officials from the Jodhpur Municipal Corporation, and prominent vendor leaders from the city. In-depth discussions were held on various issues affecting Jodhpur’s street vendors, and several concrete resolutions were passed.
One of the major concerns highlighted in the meeting was the absence of the Town Vending Committee (TVC) in Jodhpur since 2016. Due to this, vending certificates have not been issued to vendors, making them vulnerable to constant eviction drives under the pretext of encroachment.
This meeting emerged as a ray of hope for street vendors in Jodhpur. With the collaboration between NASVI and the local administration, a more structured and secure environment for vendors is anticipated in the near future.
