As per the higher officials, the market would encapsulate a large count of shops that would cater to all kinds of requirements faced by women. From clothing, cosmetics and accessories to daily essentials, the market is expected to evolve as a one-stop-destination for Lucknow's womenfolk. With only female buyers and sellers, this different type of market would assure a safe and relaxed shopping trail for women.
In addition to this, the current plans indicate that the campus would also consist of pink toilets, baby feeding centres and creche areas for kids. When the women would be busy collecting their products, their children can be put in the creche for a safe and delightful time.
