The two city corporations ahead of Eid-ul-Azha decided to allow the sacrificial cattle market from July 16. But the animals have started arriving in the city.
Traders were seen keeping these animals at suitable places in the city in order to attract buyers.
The capital's Aftab Nagar cattle market on Tuesday was more crowded with visitors than buyers.
Many of the buyers and visitors at the market were not following the health guidelines.
During this ongoing lockdown, many people were seen returning home after buying animals for sacrifice.
