He said that not only Haryana and Chandigarh, but businessmen from all over the country have given significant support to society and government.
Earlier, inaugurating the closing ceremony, Ramnivas Goyal, Speaker of Delhi Legislative Assembly, said that Inspector Raj is the biggest obstacle in the development of trade and traders.
Till the time the traders are not united, they cannot pressurize the administration to meet their demands. Presiding over the function, Chairman of Haryana Merchants Welfare Board Ramnivas Garg said that a joint meeting with the Director General of MSME Department will be organized soon to resolve the problems of traders. Apart from this, the claim received by the traders will be deposited directly in their account after consulting the Chief Minister.

RJUVS’s working president Ashok Buwaniwala, while supporting the peasant movement, said that the government of Delhi and Haryana should together give farmers a separate space for the agitation. Because of this movement, three thousand industries running in the border of Haryana are being badly affected.
