Shankar Market on Connaught Palce's outer circle was once a chosen destination for cool fabrics ad dress materials. Over time, it has become a rather forlorn, and paan-stained, ill-frequented place. The move this year to restore some of the footfalls has been rather an innovative one.
The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) has joined hands with the Delhi Street Art (DSA) movement and commissioned a few artists to refurbish the walls of Shankar Market with their imagination.
If the Delhi Street Art's work in Hauz Khas is anything to go by, we should soon have some interesting walls in Shankar Market as well.
In fact, there are a few other such old favorite haunts in line for the beautification drive, and the next one to get a facelift will apparently be Gole Market.
