PANAJI
After much controversy, Corporation of the City of Panaji (CCP) is likely to issue licences to moveable handcarts for operating in the capital city after the vending committee meeting on October 25. Of the 92 handcarts identified by CCP's market committee, 68 have already paid the pending licence fees, while 24 are yet to pay the fees.
Speaking to The Goan Everyday, Market Committee Chairman Uday Madkaikar informed, "CCP has already decided to put a cap on moveable handcarts in the city at 92. Of the 92, 68 have already paid licence fees upto March 2018. Nearly Rs 25 lakh have come into the CCP treasury."
He also informed that the Vending Committee, which has been constituted as per SC guidelines, is expected to meet on October 25.
"We have shortlisted about seven zones where these moveable handcarts can be stationed. Once these zones are finalised by the vending committee, licences would be issued to the handcarts," he informed.
Nonetheless, CCP has already ordered for embossed names plates for the
handcarts.
Currently, the moveable handcarts are temporarily operating in the city at two major locations - Miramar Beach and Church Square.
