Chandigarh, October 27:- To maintain order and ensure compliance with city regulations, the Municipal Corporation Chandigarh (MCC) has intensified its vigilance and enforcement efforts to curb unauthorized vending activities. This initiative aims to provide citizens and visitors with a safe, organized environment.

Vendors are permitted to operate from 6 AM to 10 PM. However, during recent enforcement drives, the team observed that some vendors were operating beyond these hours. In response, a joint operation by the MCC enforcement team and Chandigarh Police was conducted today in Sector 22, successfully removing vendors operating outside the authorized hours.

Municipal Commissioner Sh. Amit Kumar, IAS, emphasized that these joint drives will continue across the city to ensure compliance with guidelines and prevent encroachments. "We are committed to maintaining public safety and convenience, and we urge all vendors to comply with legal regulations," he stated.

The Municipal Corporation warns that strict action will be taken against violators to uphold the integrity of public spaces.

In addition to removing vendors, the enforcement team also seized materials left at vending sites after hours. Temporary coverings, such as tarpaulins, have been removed to further ensure compliance.
