DCC evicts street vendors
A Dhaka City Corporation (DCC) mobile court demolished yesterday around 30 makeshift shops of street vendors from Karwan Bazar kitchen market.
The court also fined seven vendors each Tk 2,000. Some other vendors managed to flee the spot.
The vendors had been selling fruits, eggs, and chickens in front of the market occupying significant portions of the main road of the market.
DCC Executive Magistrate Khalil Ahmed said the vendors were asked to clear off the places two days ago but they did not. "That's why we evict them".
The DCC will carry out similar drive throughout the Ramadan, he said.
