What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Traders and shopkeepers in Delhi reported a sharp decline in customer footfall and sales, particularly during the festive season, due to ongoing protests and security restrictions in the capital region of New Delhi. Traders' associations reported that some shopkeepers independently decided to shut their establishments amid concerns about possible violence and the impact of demonstrations. These disruptions have led to goods lying unsold while operational expenses continue to mount.
