Ludhiana Sunday Bazaar
The Chaura Bazar, the main shopping centre here, sees more activity on Sundays than on weekdays. On Sundays, some of the regular shops open and display their wares on the makeshift tables, with colourful umbrellas atop to give them shade. There are mobile cart pushers, who traverse the entire length of Chaura Bazaar the whole day to sell their wares. Pottery sellers with pottery of very bright colours and different items can be seen moving and sellers of peacock fans lend a great deal of colour to the bazaar.
Most of the people got the clothes on a contract basis from export houses. The unsold clothes are returned. Shoppers on Sundays are generally people belonging to lower middle class and middle class. The clothes are affordable and the variety is astounding. Sellers say that more people come to see things on sale than to purchase these. A visit to Sunday Bazaar provides them an outing.
Since 2004.
