Bengaluru: Greater Bengaluru Authority officials, along with Cubbon Park police, removed stalls encroaching pedestrian pathways at Church Street and Brigade Road.
Senior officials supervised the operation, which follows repeated warnings to shop owners and a similar drive last year.
Several shops had displayed wares on the pavement, which were cleared. Police personnel and marshals were deployed to maintain order.
“Tippers and tractors were deployed and materials kept on the pavement were seized. All shop owners have been warned not to encroach upon footpaths. We have booked them,” said a senior police officer.
