Socio- Economic Status of Street Vendors: A Case Study in Hunsur Town

Author(s) AJAY K S
Country India
Abstract Street vendors constitute an important segment of the trade and commercial
activities in the informal sectors of our economy. Vending in urban area is
characterized by ease, small scale operation carried out in temporary structure
in a variable location without a fixed place or store. Poverty and lack of gainful
employment in the rural area and in the small towns drive large number of
people to the cities for work and livelihood. In rural areas the low skilled or semi
skilled workers with low level of education are not normally enrolled to the jobs
in organized sectors. Street vendors are facing numerous problems in their day
to-day transactions. Their major problems are related to credit and
infrastructure inadequacies, social security, economic instability, lack of
awareness about their legal rights, non-availability of basic amenities, weather
fluctuation, harassment by municipal and police officials in occupying important
traffic junctions and lack of shelters and storage space. They have long hours of
work without rest and lack of urban amenities and unhygienic environment for
the vendors particularly women vendors. In this scenario, it is highly important
to examine the real conditions of street vendors in general and their working
conditions to the street vendors in the town municipality and endowment
status.
