Tasmac outlets in Coimbatore district witness heavy rush, officials seal a bakery in Coonoor
Retail outlets in Coimbatore downed shutters on Thursday in compliance with the new restrictions announced by the State government to control the spread of the pandemic.
Except for a few small eateries, push carts that sell food items, and workshops, almost all the shops were closed. Wholesale grocery shops on RG Street remained open till noon. With no major functions and educational institutions also closed, there was hardly any rush, says a shop owner on the street. Vegetable shops in TK Market also closed down at the specified time. There were very few customers too. The wholesalers will have to move vegetables to Kerala in the evening. There is no clarity yet on moving of vegetables in the evening hours, says M. Rajendran, president of the market.
