President Pranab Mukherjee will inaugurate tomorrow a renovated shopping complex comprising a Safal outlet and Kendriya Bhandar, among others, inside Rashtrapati Bhavan precincts.
Eight shops in the President's Estate Market have been in existence since the pre-Independence era, out of which six shops were available for fresh allotment.
"The complex will include six new shops including a Safal Outlet, Kendriya Bhandar and a Shakti Haat," a press release issued by Rashtrapati Bhavan said.
The Shakti Haat is an outlet where Self Help Groups (SHGs) of Rashtrapati Bhavan will market their products like homemade masalas, organic compost and handmade envelopes.
The members of SHGs are wives of employees of the Rashtrapati Bhavan.
The renovated complex responds to a long-standing desire of employees of the Rashtrapati Bhavan and their families living in the President's Estate to have a full-fledged commercial establishment catering to all their requirements.
