Following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call for a Janata Curfew on
Sunday, about 7 crore traders throughout the country and 40 crore of
their employees are staying at home, Confederation of All India Traders
(CAIT) said.
The apex traders' body also urged PM Modi to
announce a national lockdown in view of rapidly growing numbers of
COVID-19 cases and help prevent possible community transmission.
"About
60,000 commercial markets and 40,000 Trade Associations having 7 crore
traders and 40 crore employees are all set to stay at home observing
Janata Curfew today on call of PM Modi," CAIT said.
Meanwhile,
popular market places in national capital saw deserted roads, with
traders in markets like Lajpat Nagar, Sarojini Nagar, Khan Market,
Chandhni Chowk market, Connaught Place and others observing Janata
Curfew and kept shutters of their shops down.
