Traders resort to "Gandhigiri''

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: With "Gandhigiri'' now scoring points with even Prime Minister Manmohan Singh who watched the much talked about Sanjay Dutt film on Wednesday night, distraught Delhi traders have decided to give it a try. Resorting to a different sort of protest against the dreaded sealing drive across the Capital, traders from different parts of the city gathered at the headquarters of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi here on Thursday armed with bouquets and "Get Well Soon'' cards.

Carrying black flags and citing Dr. Singh's "orders" after watching the film, the traders hope that he would step in to solve the issues. The traders also demanded that the MCD authorities abide by the MCD Act of 1957.

Meanwhile, the 72-hours "Delhi trade bandh" called by the Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) from this coming Monday has garnered more support.
