🇮🇳 India Street Vendor Forum 2026 | भारत स्ट्रीट वेंडर फोरम 2026

NASVI team invited DCP Amit Goyal, South-West District, Vasant Vihar, to the India Street Vendor Forum 2026. During the interaction, an important discussion was held on the challenges faced by street vendors, including harassment and undue action by police, and the need for effective measures to prevent such exploitation.

The discussion focused on building a system where street vendors can work with dignity, safety and respect, while ensuring coordination between vendors, police and local authorities.

NASVI टीम ने DCP अमित गोयल, दक्षिण-पश्चिम जिला, वसंत विहार को India Street Vendor Forum 2026 में आमंत्रित किया। इस दौरान स्ट्रीट वेंडर्स के सामने आने वाली चुनौतियों, विशेष रूप से पुलिस द्वारा उत्पीड़न एवं अनुचित कार्रवाई, और इसे रोकने के प्रभावी उपायों पर महत्वपूर्ण चर्चा हुई।

चर्चा का उद्देश्य ऐसा बेहतर समन्वय और व्यवस्था विकसित करना है, जिसमें स्ट्रीट वेंडर्स सम्मान, सुरक्षा और गरिमा के साथ अपना रोज़गार कर सकें।
