Mohali Street Vendors Seek Mayor's Help After Work Denial
Street vendors in Mohali, who have licenses to sell goods, are being stopped from working by the city.
They pay fees and follow rules, but the city is making it hard for them.
The vendors went to see the Mayor to ask for help, because they are having difficulties with the corporation.
Social activist Jaswinder Sharma supports them.
Many vendors took loans, and now they struggle to pay those loans back because they are not able to work.
