Delhi will remain shut on Friday and Saturday after traders' association and industries body called for a 48-hour bandh against sealing drives.
Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) said it welcomed the recent proposals by urban development ministry and DDA to provide relief to the traders, but argues that nothing concrete has been officially announced.

The bandh, called by Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT), will affect markets in Connaught Place, Chandni Chowk, Karol Bagh, Kamla Nagar, Khan Market, South Extension, Greater Kailash, Lajpat Nagar, Defence Colony, Green Park, Rajouri Garden and Tilak Nagar which will remain closed
