In a step aimed to promote communal harmony and ensure smooth festivities during Navratri and Eid, Jangpura MLA Tarvinder Singh Marwah has written to Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, requesting that she issue guidance to the shopkeepers across the city to display name plates in front of their establishments.
Marwah feels that this step would allow citizens to make informed choices while purchasing sacred items, maintaining the sanctity of their rituals and beliefs.

In a similar manner, last year, during the Kanwar Yatra in Uttar Pradesh the administration in some areas had asked the shop owners to display their proprietors’ names in front of the establishments located along the yatra path.
