People stock groceries, fish and chicken for total lockdown Sunday
A day ahead of Sunday lockdown, people thronged vegetable and meat markets to stock groceries. Working professionals, who usually make grocery shopping on a weekly basis on Sundays, were forced to do it a day earlier due to the new restrictions. Many bought fish and chicken for the Sunday. At Kasivilangi Fish Market, customers made a beeline to buy fish, undeterred by high prices due to the 60-day fishing ban. “We find it difficult to source fish and are forced to increase the prices. However, our regular customers continue to patronise us,” R. Prabha, a vendor, said.More Related News
