NEW DELHI: Seven trade activities – eateries, hotels/motels/guesthouses, discotheques, amusement parks, auditoriums, swimming pools and video games parlours – will no longer require police licences to open and operate in the national capital.In a major policy shift aimed at cutting red tape and promoting ease of business, lieutenant governor V K Saxena has withdrawn the powers of Delhi Police to issue licences or no-objection certificates to run these trades.Officials said the reform measure to end licence raj and related harassment aligned with the central govt’s motto of “minimum govt and maximum governance by reducing the multiple licensing regimes”, which is followed by various states and Union Territories.
