CITU holds demonstration against street vendor evictions in Vijayawada

The record

Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.

CITU district vice president Donepudi Kasinath led a demonstration in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, demanding an immediate halt to the eviction of street vendors.
Speaking at the protest, Kasinath alleged that state and central governments are prioritizing large corporate interests in land allocation while displacing informal-sector workers who depend on street vending for their livelihoods.
The protest underscores a recurring tension in Indian urban governance between beautification or commercial development drives and the economic survival of small informal vendors.
Both The Hindu and its Andhra Pradesh edition covered the event with neutral framing, relaying Kasinath's claims without presenting an official government response on the record.
It remains unclear whether the state administration has publicly addressed the allegations or outlined a timeline for vendor rehabilitation.
Watch for any official statement from the Vijayawada municipal authorities or the Andhra Pradesh government on the eviction policy.
Further protests by CITU or allied trade unions are possible if evictions continue without dialogue.
