Barabanki, Amrit Vichar: Due to the ongoing Pitru Paksha and the rains since last two days, businessmen have been greatly affected. If seen, maximum silence in the shops is due to Pitru Paksha. Shopkeepers say that the splendor of the markets will return only after the end of Pitru Paksha. The hustle and bustle will start again by November. During Navratri days, people will start booking and purchasing clothes, electronics and other goods. The market has come to a complete standstill for the last ten days.
On the one hand, there are no plans of marriage for four-five months. Due to this, shopping is not looking as bright as it should be. Due to patriarchy from above, people are also not buying any new goods. Apart from food items, no other new items are being sold. Be it the automobile sector or the field of marketing. There has been a halt on the sale of bikes, clothes, cosmetics and other goods. Shopkeepers are opening and closing their establishments as per the stipulated time but due to huge decline in income their faces are not as bright as before.
Neeraj Jain, owner of a textile establishment and owners of an electronics shop say that due to weddings and other auspicious programs starting from the month of November, people will now turn to the market during Navratri days after Pitru Paksha and buy clothes, vehicles for weddings. Including purchasing and booking of other essential items etc. After this, there will be crowd at the shops and the market will also become vibrant. On the other hand, due to rain across the district for the last two days, the crowd seen daily at many major intersections including Dhanokhar, Chhaya Square, Satrikh Naka is missing.
