UP MLA Sells Vegetables On The Roadside In Protest: Here’s Why

Nand Kishor Gurjar, BJP MLA from Loni, Ghaziabad, protests the closure of weekly markets by selling vegetables on the roadside.

In an unexpected move, Nand Kishor Gurjar, the BJP MLA from Loni, Ghaziabad, has opened a vegetable shop on the roadside. The MLA, sitting on the road, is selling vegetables at the same rates as local vendors. However, this act is not a business venture, but it is a protest against the Ghaziabad Police’s decision to shut down weekly markets across the district. By selling vegetables himself, Gurjar is drawing attention to the closure and standing in solidarity with the affected vendors.

Gurjar expressed his frustration with the move, calling it a “Tughlaqi Farman,” a reference to a draconian order. He said, “The Ghaziabad Police has prohibited the setting up of weekly markets through this order. In protest against this, I am selling vegetables on the road.”
