A day after razing eight retailers which had been established on authorities land amid protests in Shivpuri, the municipal company eliminated an unlawful fish market from the roadside close to Chand Cinema on Thursday.

Civic physique officers said that motion was taken after complaints from residents of the world that over two dozen distributors had illegally established a fish market on the website, leading to unhygienic circumstances.

“The fish market had disturbed the movement of traffic in the area as it was on the roadside. As the illegal market was near the Buddha Nullah, waste was also being dumped in the drain illegally, adding to pollution,” the official said.

MC commissioner Shena Aggarwal said vendors across the city have been instructed to get meat and fish slaughtered only at the modern slaughter house established at Haibowal dairy complex by the civic body.

“But, these vendors continue to serve unhygienic meat and fish to public on roadsides, due to which regular drives are being organized by MC to remove the illegal fish markets across the city,” she added.
