Hyderabad: In an effort to improve access to quality vegetables, meat and fish, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) plans to build markets with modern facilities so that people can find and buy all the items under one roof.
A press release from the GHMC said on Thursday that the sale of these goods along the road would lead to traffic blockages and disruption of movement across the city. So if you keep this in mind, the municipal body is building 5 model markets on designated sites with a budget of Rs 19.49 crore, which is best suited according to various parameters.
The model markets at Nacharam and Kukatpally are already in operation and open to the public. “The markets at Mallapur and Begum Bazar are still under construction and GHMC hopes to get it ready as soon as possible within the estimated time. “Traffic control measures are already in place in these areas,” reads the statement,
The old municipal market at Narayanaguda with an estimated budget of Rs 4 crore is being converted into a model market and will soon be open to buyers once construction is complete, he added.
