The action against shopkeepers not displaying Marathi signboards will start from Tuesday, but unlike the last time, most of the shops have already changed their boards and the shopkeepers’ association is not going to challenge the action in the Supreme Court.
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) will resume action against shops which still do not adhere to the law of displaying their names in Marathi from November 28. The action against such shops was stopped in November 2022 after a Supreme Court (SC) order stayed it. But on September 25, 2023, the SC gave two months for compliance with the Marathi signboard norm.
