Palayam Market Demolitions Spark Protest and Legal Action

The government is tearing down some shops at Palayam Market to make a better one.

Shop owners are upset because they say the government didn't follow the rules and they don't have a good place to move to.

The government says they have a temporary building ready, but the shop owners disagree.

There was a protest, and some shops were demolished anyway.

The shop owners say the demolition breaks the law.

They are worried about safety.

The market will be modernized, but the traders want it done fairly.
