more-inThe Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) on Sunday questioned the role of the Delhi Police in the ongoing sealing operations across the city. CAIT secretary general Praveen Khandelwal alleged that the municipal corporations were not following the due process of law as envisaged under 1957 Act. “It is only after exhausting due process that the municipal corporations can initiate action for misuse or unauthorised construction,” he said. The CAIT urged Mr. Patnaik to direct the police to assist the sealing operations only where due process of law is obeyed. The CAIT said that Delhi’s traders are gearing up to close business establishments on March 13 as part of a trade bandh.
