they should be given a proper place in the part of the city to run their
business otherwise they would gherao the municipal corporation office.
Gulshan Kumar, President of the
car dealer association, said that 10 months ago, the municipal corporation had shifted
car bazaar from sector 07 to Ram Darbar near the Halo Majra. Since then, the
work of the car market has stalled completely. There are 64 members in association,
but 51 have been given permission to run their business, the remaining 13 have
already been unemployed. He said that in Sector 7 car bazaar market car dealers
were showcase approximately 2000 cars, but here in Ram Darbar they can accommodate
only 500 cars. The situation of law and order is very bad in this area, due to
which the customer does not want to come in the area.
He added further that they have
met many high officials several times but there is no benefit. Until now, our
demand is not accepted, we will continue to stay on Protest and we will gherao
the Municipal Corporation. We have a car market once in a week for which we are
giving a rental of Rs. 3 lakh to the municipal corporation. Gulshan Kumar said
that car dealers, who gave a huge revenue per week to the Chandigarh Municipal
Corporation, have now decided to not to install a car market at the place fixed
up by the municipal corporation.
He said that he has met the Commissioner
of Chandigarh Municipal Corporation regarding his problem but he did not give
any reasonable answer. However, when it was met with the city MP Kiran Kher, she
was informed about the problem and she took a strong cognizance of the car
dealer's problem and assured them that the matter should be disposed off as
soon as possible. Gulshan Kumar said that due to the closure of the car bazaar,
the municipal corporation has suffered a loss of 3.50 lakh and the car dealers
has suffered the loss about 3 to 5 crores of rupees.
Gulshan Kumar said that if their demands
were not accepted soon, then in the coming days, car dealers would not only gherao
the municipal corporation office.
