However, on the insistence of the Stall Holders, the stalls shall remain closed on 21st & 22nd July, 2021 on the eve of the Eid-ul-Adha. The amusement section for the kids, however, will remain open during the festive times.
In view of the fact that a good number of people are visiting the Haat for witnessing the Cultural Programme, the same will also resume from 23rd July 2021. The Department of Handicrafts & Handloom, Kashmir in association with the Department of Information has organized the Cultural Programmes in the Kashmir Haat from 10th July 2021 and the same has been attracting a huge number of visitors towards the Haat especially during the evening hours from 6.00 to 8.00 PM.
