CAIT calls for  ‘Bharat Trade Bandh’ on September 28

Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) on Monday called for an all India traders strike against the Walmart-Flipkart deal on September 28. “We are organising a ‘Bharat Trade Bandh’ on September 28 against the Walmart-Flipkart deal. We want the government to nullify the deal as it is against the sector,” CAIT Secretary General Praveen Khandelwal told media. “We have also planned a host of other activities like a mega traders protest march to gain public support against the deal.” Accordingly, the confederation has called for a ‘Bharat Trade Bandh’ on September 28 and a massive nationwide ‘Rath Yatra’ to begin on September 15 and a mega traders rally on December 16 at New Delhi.
