MC TO MAKE FINAL BID TO AUCTION SEC 41 FISH AND MEAT MARKET SHOPS ON AUG 28

CHANDIGARH: The municipal corporation (MC) is making a final attempt to auction shops at the Fish and Meat Market in Sector 41, failing which it is likely to be used for general trade. The civic body, which has over 10 years failed to sell or auction 32 booths and a chill room in the market, has invited bidders to participate in an open auction for the sites. Converting the market for general trade was recommended by the MCS gaushala committee in June this year. Developed as a fish market in 2006 at a cost of ₹5 crore by the UT administration, the market was handed over to the MC in 2009.
