Mumbai ke Byculla area mein chalaye gaye anti-hawker drive ko local residents ka zabardast support mila hai. Logon ka kehna hai ki police aur civic authorities ki is action ke baad footpaths par kabza kam hua hai aur area mein law and order ki situation bhi behtar hui hai.
Residents ke mutabik, illegal hawkers ke hatne se un jagahon par hone wali drug-related activities par bhi kaafi had tak rok lagi hai. Kai logon ne police ki is muhim ki tareef karte hue kaha ki isse na sirf pedestrians ko rahat mili hai, balki area ka mahaul bhi pehle se zyada surakshit mehsoos ho raha hai.
Local logon ne administration se appeal ki hai ki anti-hawker drive ko sirf ek baar ki karwai na rakha jaye, balki regular basis par aise operations chalaye jayein taaki illegal encroachment aur drug menace par hamesha ke liye control banaya ja sake. Police ka kehna hai ki aage bhi aise enforcement drives jaari rahenge aur kanoon todne walon ke khilaf sakht action liya jayega.
