Offline traders have erupted in anger over Karnataka s decision to allow only e-commerce companies to deliver all items on weekdays during the period of partial lock extending up to May 4.
They were all asked to close their businesses by the police on Thursday citing an amended notification which caught both businessmen and transporters by surprise. As it is, our businesses have been badly hit due to online companies. Now they (e-commerce) have been supported again, said Rishab Dugar, secretary at Bangalore Electronic Dealers Association.
