Delhi Chief Minister (CM) Rekha Gupta has announced the formation of the Delhi Traders Welfare Board, a new platform specifically dedicated to making the city more trader-friendly, news agency PTI reported.

The establishment of this board was a poll promise made by the BJP in its manifesto ahead of the Assembly polls in February.

The board's key objective is to address the comprehensive needs of traders and industrialists, with a focus on policy formation, resolving regulatory challenges, ensuring trader welfare, boosting employment opportunities, and attracting vital investment, reported PTI.
