¶17

According to the NDMC, the petitioner is not permitted to vend at the said site. It is stated that the petitioner’s name does not feature in the list of 628 unauthorised vendors, who were operating at the relevant time and are covered by protective orders passed by this Court.

¶18

The learned counsel for the respondents submits that there are a large number of street vendors, who claim that they are entitled to vend from sites located in Sarojini Nagar. However, the capacity of the market is insufficient to support such a large number of vendors.

¶19

This Court is informed that a survey is being conducted. In this view, we dispose of this petition by directing that the petitioner would also have a right to participate in the survey and furnish all the documents or material to establish that he has been carrying on vending activities. It is stated that the Town Vending Committee (TVC) shall consider the material and documents as furnished by the petitioner for taking an informed decision.

¶20

We also direct that the concerned TVC shall consider the petitioner’s representation dated 16.01.2024, a copy of which is annexed to this petition. 7. The petition is disposed of in the aforesaid terms. All pending application(s) stand disposed of.
