The Delhi government Monday decided to set up a trade board to address the issues of traders in the capital.

This was decided in a meeting between Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit and traders' representatives Praveen Khandelwal and Ajay Arora, said a Delhi government official.

Dikshit also said that the board would also be authorised to constitute different committees to facilitate consideration of issues concerning various departments and agencies of the government.

While she assured that her government and the VAT department would ensure that traders do not face harassment, she expressed pleasure over "constructive contribution" being rendered by the traders in collection of VAT in Delhi.
