People Throng Sunday Market In Srinagar

People thronged the weekly flea market in Jammu and Kashmir’s summer capital on Sunday even as some shops in the city opened in the morning hours, officials said. However, main markets across Kashmir were shut and most of the public transport was off the roads as normal life remained affected in the valley for the 63rd consecutive day, they said. The weekly flea market, locally known as Sunday market, was open as several dozen vendors had put up stalls on the TRC Chowk-Lal Chowk road, the officials said. They said the market witnessed huge rush of customers as people thronged it to buy clothes and other items in view of the approaching winter.
