Arrival of the Emperor of Fruits at Poorna Market & Rythu Bazaar

After a huge commotion created by Hudhud two years back, Vizag was left with hopeless destruction and despair all around. This had a great impact on nature and human lives as well. But within the span of two years, Vizag has undergone all the major developments and has proved its worth again. It feels so good and great to see our city clean and green again. Moreover, Vizag the future smart city is termed as the third clean city all over India, which is a matter of fact, unknown to some. The arrival of “Ugadi” has now got something really sweet and tangy, that most of us were craving for since months. Who would regret or deny tasting this sweetness and flavour, because almost all of us are in so much love with this fruit. And I am sure by now even our mouths have started watering, imagining those yummy mangoes slipping into our lips. So finally the emperor of fruits has come up in Poorna Market and all the Ryhtu Bazaars of Vizag, and are being sold like hot pan cakes. Every twenty minutes the cartons of mangoes are going empty in these stalls.

The mangoes look so attractive, juicy and pulpy but the prices this year are higher as compared to the previous year. But none of us wish to deny ourselves from eating such an amazing fruit after months. The other day while wandering around the streets of Poorna Market, our team came across such a fascinating mango fest.
