Hope turns into despair at Mozamjahi Market as renovation loses pace

Hyderabad: When authorities in Hyderabad set out to restore the Nizami architectural beauty of the Mozamjahi Market, popular among locals as MJ market, shopkeepers and vendors at the heritage point were only too delighted to cooperate.

Two years on, their patience is turning into frustration as the pace of the renovation has slowed down. The business community at the market, which came up in the 1930s, say they are having a harrowing time with footfall dwindling to a trickle.
