Markets in Hyderabad, especially in the Old City, were very busy on Tuesday as people rushed to do their last-minute shopping for Eid on Thursday. Textile and clothing stores, as well as shops selling cutlery and footwear, were particularly crowded as shoppers tried to complete their purchases before the holiday.
The streets in the area were filled with traffic as festival shoppers from all over the city flocked to the shops near Charminar, which was the center of all the business activity for the holiday. Many buyers wait until the last minute to make their purchases in hopes of finding special offers and discounts.
Overall, both shop owners and shoppers had a difficult time completing transactions due to the large crowds and limited time before Eid.
