Puneet Khanna, an architect and consultant for the association, made a presentation at the meeting.

Kumar appreciated the effort made by the association members and suggested some changes.

“It was a good design and I have suggested some changes so as the natural look of the market does not get distorted,” he said.

“The market is located at the heart of the Millennium City.

We want you to develop this area on your own and we will cooperate in your efforts,” said the administrator.

If the proposed plan is approved, then the market will have enhanced pedestrian environment with well-lit, safe streets, providing
