A group of hawkers staged protest outside collectorate on Monday 25^th Jan against the UMC and other administrative departments for ignoring their rights and not issuing license to them. Recently, many food hawkers were removed from Durga Nursery Road too after that the hawkers association protested against UMC.

Under the banner of All India Hawker Federation, the protestors said that UMC assured them to issue license and a special place where they will be free to operate their business but nothing is done so far.
