vending in favour of the Petitioner as per the provisions of the Street Vendors (Protection of livelihood and regulation of Street Vending) Act 2014, The Delhi Street Vendors (Protection of Livelihood and Regulation of Street Vending) Rules, 2017 and The Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi Street Vendors (Protection of Livelihood and Regulation of Street Vending) Scheme 2019.”

¶18

The petitioner claims that he was selling permissible goods from a vending site described as “Opposite Shop No.11, Sarojini Nagar Market, Sarojini Nagar, New Delhi-110023”. He alleges that the officials of the New Delhi Municipal Council ( NDMC ) have on a number of occasions removed him from the site and thrown away his goods. He states that his goods have also been confiscated from time to time.

¶19

According to Respondent No. 3/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. 4. Learned counsel for the respondents submit 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.

¶20

This Court is informed that a survey is being conducted. In this view, we dispose of this petition by directing that the petitioner also has the right to participate in the survey and furnish all 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.
