The general merchants at Begum Bazar have decided to close their stores daily by 5 pm and kirana merchants by 3 pm, in view of the prevailing coronavirus situation.

Also, protesting the border clash at Galwan valley in which 20 Indian soldiers were martyred, general merchants at Begum Bazar on Thursday decided to stop trading of Chinese goods with immediate effect.

Meanwhile, the Hyderabad General Merchants Association said they took a decision to close stores by 5 pm to contain the spread of the virus in the market, which is a major business hub in the



city.

The Kirana Merchants Association also voluntarily decided to conduct their business from 9 am to 3 pm only in a bid to break the chain of virus spread. There are nearly 400 shops under the association’s umbrella.

“We have to ensure safety of traders and customers as well. We cannot take chances,” said Kirana Merchants Association president, Laxminarayan Rathi.

These decisions will come into effect covering all shops in Feelkhana, Begum Bazar, Siddamber Bazar and Osman Gunj areas.
