The Bezawada Jewellers’ and Diamond Merchants Association members will not open their shops today, in response to a Bandh call given by the National Gems and Jewellers’ Federation.
Across the country, about 300 jewellery associations have called for the bandh against the central government’s rule of mandatory permanent account number (PAN) card submission on the purchase of jewellery worth of Rs 2 lakh and above. The jewellery shops in Vijayawada will remain closed on Wednesday i.e. February 10 because of the bandh.
