New Delhi, Oct. 15 -- A street vendor who has been selling garments at Palika Bazar for nearly three decades has approached the Delhi High Court seeking urgent intervention against the Cockroach Janta Party's (CJP) proposed protest at Central Park, Connaught Place, arguing that such gatherings and the resulting traffic restrictions threaten the livelihood of small traders and daily-wage earners.

The plea was mentioned before the High Court on Thursday. "This protest has to be stopped," Senior Advocate Sacchin Puri told the court.

Acting Chief Justice Nitin Wasudeo Sambre asked the counsel to return at 2:30 pm, after the Supreme Court hears related protest matters, and said the High Court would consider the plea thereafter.
