Streets, footpaths cleared for PM and VVIPs, why not for everyone: Bombay High Court

The Bombay High Court emphasised the importance of clearing streets and footpaths daily for all citizens, not just during VVIP visits, asserting that a safe place to walk is a fundamental right. The court criticised the lack of decisive action by authorities in addressing the issue of unauthorised hawkers encroaching on footpaths, calling for concrete measures such as developing a database to prevent their return.
