The district administration launched an anti-encroachment drive in Jamshedpur, where local shopkeepers protested. They said that their families have been running the shop for the last 30 years, and now this sudden removal of the shop will affect their livelihood. The shopkeepers also said that they never opposed the development of the city, but their livelihoods depend on it, and their survival will be tough if the shops near Sakchi Old Jail Chowk are removed. The shopkeepers have demanded that the administration should give time before encroachments and alternative options should be given to them, as it will lead to a financial crisis.
