Chennai: Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) has officially released a comprehensive list of 35,588 street vendors across its 15 administrative zones. This initiative is part of the ongoing implementation of the 2025 Street Vendors Survey, conducted under the National Urban Livelihoods Mission framework.The list, published on June 4, marks a critical step in recognizing the rights and contributions of street vendors to Chennai’s urban economy. According to the GCC, this effort follows a Supreme Court directive from 2015, mandating the protection and promotion of street vendors’ livelihoods through proper identification and licensing.To ensure transparency and public participation, the GCC will organize a series of public grievance redressal meetings at the zonal offices from June 16 to 18. These sessions will allow stakeholders to raise objections or provide clarifications regarding the published vendor lists. Subsequently, the final vendor selection will be completed by June 26, and identity cards will be issued on June 27.The published list is available for public viewing both online at chennaicorporation.gov.in; and at designated zonal offices, and Urban Livelihood Centres located in Ripon Buildings.
