Several Delhi Markets to Remain Shut Tomorrow Over J&K Terror Attack
In the wake of the recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, several markets in Delhi have decided to remain shut tomorrow as traders have called for a bandh to protest against the gruesome incident. The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) announced that the trade associations of Delhi have called for a “complete shutdown” of markets, citing the deep sorrow and outrage felt among the trading community.
The terror attack in Pahalgam, which claimed the lives of several innocent civilians, has sent shockwaves across the country. The attack was widely condemned by politicians and citizens alike, with many calling for stricter measures to combat terrorism. In response to the incident, the traders’ associations in Delhi have come together to organize a bandh, shutting down their businesses as a mark of protest and solidarity with the victims and their families.
The decision to call for a bandh was taken during an emergency meeting of the CAIT, which represents over 7 crore traders across the country. The organization’s Secretary General, Praveen Khandelwal, said that the brutal terrorist attack had caused immense pain and suffering, not only for the victims but also for the entire trading community.
“The brutal terrorist attack on innocent civilians in Pahalgam has caused deep sorrow and anger among the trading community. We strongly condemn this heinous act of terrorism and express our deepest condolences to the families of the victims,” Khandelwal said in a statement.
The bandh call has been supported by various trade associations in Delhi, including the Delhi Traders’ Association, the Federation of Delhi Traders’ Association, and the Chamber of Trade and Industry. The associations have appealed to all traders to shut their shops and establishments tomorrow, joining hands to protest against the terror attack.
The decision to call for a bandh is not only a expression of outrage and solidarity but also an attempt to send a strong message to the government and the terrorists. The traders’ associations are demanding that the government takes immediate and effective measures to combat terrorism and ensure the safety and security of citizens.
The bandh is expected to affect various markets and commercial areas in Delhi, including the famous Chandni Chowk, Connaught Place, and Lajpat Nagar. The traders’ associations have also appealed to the general public to cooperate with their protest and join hands in condemning the terror attack.
The call for a bandh is a significant development in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack, which has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation across the country. The incident has once again highlighted the need for the government to take effective measures to combat terrorism and ensure the safety and security of citizens.
As the country mourns the loss of innocent lives and grapples with the aftermath of the terror attack, the traders’ associations in Delhi have come together to send a strong message of solidarity and protest. The bandh is a powerful expression of the trading community’s outrage and anger, and a call to the government to take immediate and effective action to combat terrorism.
