The brutal terrorist attack in Pahalgam, which claimed the lives of innocent citizens, has caused deep sorrow and anger among the trading community. As a mark of tribute to the deceased and in strong solidarity with the government, leading trade associations of Delhi have called for a complete shutdown of markets in Delhi on 25th April 2025 (tomorrow).

The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) fully supports this call and appeals to all traders across Delhi to voluntarily keep their establishments closed and observe the bandh peacefully.

*CAIT’s Secretary General & MP, Chandni Chowk, Shri Praveen Khandelwal, stated that this bandh is not a protest but a symbol of tribute and national solidarity. We appeal to all traders to take all necessary precautionary measures in their respective markets and ensure that the bandh is observed in a peaceful manner without any untoward incidents.

CAIT has also requested the Delhi Police and administrative authorities to maintain law and order during the bandh and ensure a peaceful environment across all marketplaces.
