The vibrant Eid markets in Kashmir have become desolate and empty, with declining customer footfalls and low sales. Factors contributing to this decline include skyrocketing prices, economic depression, lack of vibrancy, and the impact of the Smart City project, which has affected transportation and diverted customers. Traditional marketplaces are struggling to compete with online shopping, while the overall economic crisis and financial constraints further exacerbate the situation. The implementation of the Smart City project has not adequately supported and promoted the traditional markets, leading to a significant decline in business activity.
