Bihar State Street Vendors (Protection of livelihood and regulation of trade) (Repeal) Act, 2016

Bihar State Street Vendors (Protection of livelihood and regulation of trade) (Repeal) Act, 2016

This law in Bihar officially ends the former 2012 legislation that protected street vendors and regulated their trade. By repealing that earlier Act, it removes the previous legal framework that governed vending rights and local market rules. However, it also ensures a smooth transition by declaring that any actions or decisions already made under the old law remain legally valid, so established vendor protections or administrative measures are not suddenly nullified.
