Mohali Vendors Defy Regulations, Leading to Encroachments and Traffic
Imagine the city made rules saying 'no shops here,' but some people set up shops anyway.
This is happening in Mohali.
Vendors are selling things where they shouldn't be, causing traffic problems and making it unsafe.
The city knows this and is trying to fix it by moving vendors to new spots, but some vendors keep returning to restricted zones.
Residents are asking if the rules are actually being enforced.
Vendors are illegally setting up stalls in Mohali's "no vending zones".
Encroachments cause traffic jams and potential safety issues.
The Municipal Corporation is aware of the issue.
Officials plan to re-allot vending sites to manage traffic.
Residents question the effectiveness of 'no vending zone' regulations.
