CTI urges Rahul Gandhi to defer Nov 1 INDIA bloc rally, warns of ₹10,000 crore trade loss
The Confederation of Trade and Industry (CTI) asked opposition leader Rahul Gandhi to postpone his planned November 1 rally in Delhi, saying the event could disrupt wholesale and retail activity around Ramlila Maidan. CTI warned that the gathering might cause a loss of up to ₹10,000 crore, a concern for traders expecting strong customer traffic ahead of the Dhanteras and Deepavali festivals.
