Mysore/Mysuru: The recently concluded Gram Panchayat (GP) election results, birthdays, marriages and felicitations have pushed up the flower business in city which had hit rock bottom during lockdown and COVID-19 pandemic in the past few months.
This has brought a smile on the faces of flower vendors at wholesale and retail flower market in Devaraja Market. The vendors faced worst situation when the whole country was shut for about two months to check the spread of the contagion. The subsequent ban on marriages, religious functions and places of worship had made their life miserable. Farmers had allowed flowers to dry in fields with the closure of markets for several weeks.
