Traders at Koyambedu Vegetable Market skip a day’s work to support the demand for CMB;
CHENNAI: Life in the city was fairly unaffected even as the AIADMK, led by Chief Minister ‘Edappadi’ K Palaniswami, observed a day-long fast at Chepauk on Tuesday. A section of traders extended support to the government’s protest demanding formation of the Cauvery Management Board. However, most shops in the city were open on Tuesday. News of pharmacists extending support to the protest triggered some panic on Monday evening but pharmacies in various parts of the city such as Triplicane, Guindy, Saidapet, Tambaram and Anna Nagar remained open.

Milk delivery was also expected to take a hit but residential areas visited by Express said that milk packets were delivered as usual. “We called for strike but not all were willing to join. We suspect it is because of the political motivation,” said an office-bearer of the Mylapore Traders Association, explaining the failure of the strike. Supermarkets and restaurants were also kept open. The Marina beach witnessed an excessive police deployment for the fourth consecutive day. Police presence in the Elliot’s Beach in Besant Nagar was also intensified anticipating protests.

Fruits and vegetable traders expressed full solidarity with the government protests and the city’s largest wholesale market witnessed a complete shutdown. Traders in the bustling market space used the day to clean out their shops. “The restaurants and retailers took an extra load yesterday so life won’t be affected,” said one of the traders in the market. “A few shops were functioning in the morning but we asked them to close down to show solidarity with our farmers who are suffering without Cauvery water,” said an official in the office of the Chief Administrative Officer of the Market Management Committee.
