RAJYA SABHA
The National Policy on Urban Street Vendors, 2009 was circulated to all States/Union Territories on 17th June 2009 for suitable adoption. The States were requested to take all necessary action to ensure that the legislative framework and institutional and other necessary arrangements are put in place in conformity with the National Policy on Urban Street Vendors 2009 and further that the Policy is implemented effectively to give a new deal to the urban street vendors. No State has reported adoption of the policy by way of executive order or legislation so far. As policy has been circulated to States only recently, it is too early to ascertain reasons for non-adoption. This was stated by the Housing & Urban poverty Alleviation Minister Kumari Slja in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha today.
