Kathmandu, April 14
The Kathmandu metropolitan city has failed to implement its decision to decentralise a vegetable market in Kalimati by making the traders sell the vegetables from different crossroads of the city.
In its bid to avoid any crowd in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak, the city government had made a decision to temporarily establish small-scale vegetable shops in different locations last week.
However, the shopkeepers returned to Kalimati again as the newly selected places lack basic facilities such as toilet and drinking water, according to a trader Gita Acharya.
Following the traders’ return, the Kalimati fruit and vegetable market has come into operation from today again. This market sells fruits and vegetables to most retailers and vendors of the city.
