MCD set to conduct census of street hawkers operating in city

The last and only time the civic body undertook such a survey was in 2021, when the erstwhile trifurcated MCDs identified 76,301 street vendors operating in Delhi. According to the National Association of Street Vendors of India (NASVI), during the last survey, a large number of street vendors migrated out of the city, due to which the exercise was impacted, and a fresh survey will be able to yield better results. The association estimates that there are around 500 weekly markets in the city.
