Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], Jan 26 (ANI): India's first floating market is now open in Kolkata's Patuli area in West Bengal.
Set up by the Kolkata Metropolitan Development Authority (KMDA), the market functions solely on boats at the lake in Patuli, where shopkeepers sell fruits, vegetables, fish among other produce.
The floating market is seeing hoards of visitors since its inauguration by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday.
