NEW DELHI, INDIA, October 8, 2010: Delhiites will have to spend extra money for Diwali shopping thanks to the Commonwealth Games. The traders are facing a stock shortage because of restrictions on entry of goods vehicles in the city due to the Commonwealth Games. Vehicles carrying goods can enter the city only between 10 pm and 6 am. As goods from neighboring states will reach after the current restrictions are lifted, traders claim that they will be charged a higher sum from the wholesalers which will also reflect in the price they will charge from the consumers.
According to them, there might be a hike of approximately 20 per cent in the price of goods.
