In a groundbreaking decision for entrepreneurs, the requirement for Delhi Police licences for commercial establishments has been scrapped. This move has been warmly received by business owners in Delhi who see it as a significant reduction in bureaucratic hurdles.
Brijesh Goyal, Chairman of the Chamber of Trade and Industry, expressed his satisfaction, noting that this initiative would alleviate the compliance burden on traders.
