KOHLU:Green grocers of Kohlu city started observing strike on Sunday by closing their shops and stalls against shifting of their businesses from city to Maweshe Mandi (Cattle Market).
The green grocers closed their businesses after Deputy Commissioner Kohlu served notices on them to shift their business to Maweshe Mandi area of Kohlu in order to ease traffic congestion in the city.
The green grocers said that Maweshe Mandi was not a suitable place for running the business of fruits and vegetables. They said that forcible shifting to Maweshe Mandi was tantamount to depriving green grocers of their livelihood. They said that their strike would continue until they were granted the permission of selling fruits and vegetables in Kohlu city.
