Er Rational Musings #24

Hawking zone(!)s were earmarked n separated out n formed a few years back, as per honourable Court's guidelines. 'Authorised' hawkers were supposed to do business from here. What's the reality, but?

Meaning of a 'Hawker' is a person who travels from place to place selling Goods!

In contrast, we have @lmost all roads, be it a market road or station road or a bylane or an arterial road, space reservations all @round. At the end of the days business, the vendors just pack up their mart in makeshift wrapping, keeping their wares covered n secured thru night, only to restart all over again the next day, for next month, for next year.. forever, till the time he/she 'manages' the show! Moreover, we find a vegetable vendor during early morning, and a bangles seller in evening at same place! So they keep the Location secured! N different business activities are carried out at different business hours!


Less said about mushrooming 'khau gallies' the better! South Indian smacks like Idli Wada, Upma - Pohe, Ayurvedic juices, Wada paav, Samosa-Bhaji-Pattice, Dabeli, Puri bhaaji, Paav bhaaji, Bhurji-Omellete, Chat items like Bhel-pani puri, Tawa pulao-Biryani, Non veg items, Chinese recipies, to full fledged meals, we have it @ll in Aamchi Mumbai!
