TIRUCHI
Seeking to set at rest speculations over any possible move to shift traders of the Gandhi Market to the new market complex proposed to be built at Panchapur in the city, the Tiruchi Corporation has announced that the existing wholesale and retail trade at the market would be allowed to function without any hindrance.
The corporation has announced that a modern market complex would be established as part of the ₹832 crore project to establish an integrated bus stand for the city on an area of about 500 acres at Panchapur, off the Tiruchi-Madurai Highway. One of the components of the project would be the establishment of a modern market complex at an investment of ₹110 crore. The complex would have shops for wholesale and retail trade of vegetable and food grains, Corporation Commissioner Mujibur Rahuman said.
