NO SALES, NO SHOPPERS: The sheep market at Eidgah in Kashmir on Sunday. During Eid last year, the young and old assembled all day at the four-hectare market, the largest in Kashmir, to buy sheep for sacrifice. “We bring in more than 1.5 lakh sheep on Eid every year. Children who got no chance to buy new clothes this Eid can at least relish them. This is the grimmest-ever Eid I am witnessing,” said a bakery owner in the Lal Bazaar area.
