The growing trend of online shopping has badly affected the traditional IT traders. IT associations across India are taking various steps to combat e-tailers. The All Delhi Computer Traders' Association (ADCTA) has organized a public meeting today at Nehru Place to discuss issues relating to traders mainly on discounting sale of IT products at online portals by a few e-tailers and its impact on traditional IT traders.
Former Chief Minister of Delhi, Arvind Kejriwal of Aam Admi Party was also present at the meeting. Talking to a gathering of around 500 traders, he promised that he would bring to notice the plight of the IT traders of Nehru Place who have been long suffering because of nefarious schemes and business employed by online retailers once he comes to power. Also sharing the stage with him was Manish Sisodia, an MLA and a former Cabinet Minister in the Govt. of Delhi who recalled how the previous governments have overlooked the difficulties faced by the traders here with respect to constant raids done on their shops and the imposition of VAT and that AAM party will bring in the required change that the trader community is looking forward to.
ADCTA, Delhi is a registered society, formed for the purpose of protecting and safeguarding the legal and commercial rights of its member traders. For many years, computer and computer peripheral traders/ dealers have been suffering fraud cases of cheque bouncing, delay in payments, etc. In the interest of the traders at large, ADCTA has decided to come up with the idea of arranging this meeting.
