• Stall rents for 15 days range from 80 to 90 thousand rupees, now wasted due to closures.
• Vendors from Punjab, Delhi, and Bihar are forced to pack up and return home, unable to cover expenses.
• Shopkeepers appeal to the administration for gate passes to retrieve their goods and seek solutions for their losses.
