Noida's Sunehri Market

 ‘How much for this jacket?’ The young lady in yellow kurti aged about 25 years asked the vendor at the roadside of Noida’s sunehri market.‘Just Rs. 700 mam.’

‘What nonsense?Last week same I took in 200.’ The vendor replied,”Sorry mam! 350 is the last price.” The lady said,”I will not give more than 250.” “No mam 300 is the final offer.” “Okay! Take 280 and pack it.” “Alright mam.” He said.

Sunehri market is located at atta outside sector 18 metro station opposite of GIP mall.There are few custom seized goods shops which attract lots of customers.Here one could get items like jeans,shirts,shoes,woolen wear,belts etc. There is no scope for bargaining in these shops.The rates are fixed.

There are other shops along the road for footwears,clothes,dry fruits,book shops,juice corners and restaurants.The footpath connecting the metro station to sab mall has too much rush due to people standing at stalls of garments like lowers,ladies suits,undergarments,socks,sleepers,belts and other wears.People generally bargain for these items.The path is very narrow and the crowd usually big enough to block it.

There is mehandi stall which is a mode of attraction for most of the ladies.A few ladies could be seen putting mehandi on their palm sitting and blocking the footpath.

The other side ,i.e,the path going towards Vinayak hospital comprises of stalls having gadgets,watches,wallets,goggles and fast food corners.In the interior markets there are cheap restaurants,photo studios,jewellery and bangle shops.

Locals consider this place as mini chandni chowk as it’s cheap market of New Delhi’s suburb.Most people who visit  here are employees of different companies of IT sector,media houses,call centres,consultancies and students.So a large number of people from lower middle class are targeted by this market.

From morning to evening,this market remains crowded most of the time.There is a lot of competition among the vendors.So there is much bargaining on the roadside items.So for the people of Noida,sunehri market is good substitute for palika bazaar or gaffar market .
