IMC has been collecting taxes from the three market sheds regularly but it has failed to maintain the sheds alleged a woman vendor of the Keithel No 1 to Hueiyen Lanpao.
Artificial flood caused by blockage of drainage system of the shed is causing many inconveniences to the vendors here, she said.

Garbage thrown away by the vendors and customers here and there has made the market sheds dirty and unhygienic.
