It is past time for folks to visit the marketplaces again. However, it is up to the police and the district administration to make sure that nothing unpleasant happens,” according to Sadar Bazar seller Harjeet Singh.
In the marketplace, warnings to keep an appropriate distance and not push others are frequently issued. Smaller vendors and members of the general public have been swarming the market in the past two weeks to make last-minute purchases, causing considerable crowding.
