Aminabad market wears a deserted look, amid COVID-19 induced lockdown, in Lucknow.
Lucknow traders, who had voluntarily shut down their establishments on April 15 following a surge in Covid cases in the state capital, are now urging the state government to cut down on restrictions and allow business to open.
The corona lockdown in Uttar Pradesh has been extended to May 31.
Hazratganj Traders Association President Kishan Chandra Bambhani said that since corona cases had come down considerably, the government should lift restrictions so that traders can resume business. He said that traders had, on their own, shut their shops in mid-April and it had been almost 40 days since the markets were closed.
