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.

Earlier this month, local business leaders called on Governor Lamont and the General Assembly to acknowledge the negative affects the proposed tax would have on working-class families in the midst of a public health and economic crisis.
