Taking all these factors inbto consideration, the government has decided to shift the Fruit market to Koheda village, he said.Adding this Minister said the proposed market also very near to the Outer Ring Road (ORR) which further improves easy accessibility for both farmers and for export business.

Mentioning about funds allocation for the construction of a new fruit market, the Minister said that the government was ready to sanction the required funds for the completion of the project.
