Traders urge police to ban protests at key sites till Bhai Dooj

What's behind this

The Supreme Court on November 3 said that no group can occupy a designated protest site indefinitely because it would block others’ right to protest, and it expressed concern about the effect of long‑lasting demonstrations on traders and daily‑wage workers. The Court also instructed a traders’ body to include the INDIA bloc parties as respondents in a plea to stop protests at Delhi’s Ramlila Maidan during the festive season, reiterating that such sites cannot be occupied for “all times to come.”
