These days, the number of illegal vendors in the railway stations and trains of the division has reached close to thousands. There are more people with criminal tendencies among them, who are even killing people to sell their goods. Some time ago, illegal vendors had also attacked RPF personnel and TTE.
This is happening due to lack of strict action against illegal vendors.
