A special Pongal market has opened today at Koyambedu Market in Chennai to celebrate the festival. The market, organized by the market management committee, spreads over 7 acres to make shopping easier for people.
Farmers and sellers are bringing fresh sugarcane from Villupuram, Tindivanam, Cuddalore, Madurai, and Sethiyathopu. People can also buy other Pongal items like turmeric, ginger, and other festive goods—all in one place.
The market has been set up to avoid crowding and make it simple for shoppers to get everything they need for Pongal. With the festival coming soon, it helps people buy items without any rush.
Shoppers can find fresh and good-quality produce here. The market is a one-stop place for families to buy all traditional Pongal items in a single trip and get ready for the celebrations.
