Kolkata, Apr 10: The State Fisheries Department has decided to set up a daily market (or ‘haat’) on the field beside the lake in Nalban.
This venue will be used for selling fish, meat, poultry, vegetables as well as handicrafts, to be sold by the manufacturers themselves.
The handicrafts stalls will be run by women belonging to self-help groups (SHGs).
These SHGs get financial aid under the State Government’s Anandadhara Scheme, which entails making and selling handicrafts and other items.
This city haat, or market, is expected to become famous the same way the Sonajhuri Haat in Santiniketan, Mangala Haat in Howrah and the Hari Sahar Haat in Shyambazar, Kolkata, have become.
The spot is ideal for a haat as it is quite near the IT hub of Sector V, where thousands come every day to work.
Already a few snacks outlets and restaurants have opened up at Nalban, including by the State Fisheries Development Corporation (SFDC). UNI
