Nita Puri - Okhla Vegetable wholsale mandi New Friends Colony, Friends Colony New Delhi Delhi

I visited the Okhla Vegetable Market in South East Delhi in January this year. It was early morning, the market was busy ,and the place was abuzz with sparrows !
The Mandi is in a large open shed with old dilapidated ceiling light fittings.The fittings had nests in them and the sparrows were flying around, hopping down from their perches to pick food from the piles of vegetable lying around.It was the beginning of the year and my day was made by the sight of so many sparrows chirping around happily , safe in their surroundings with a plentiful food supply and ample nesting places.

I do hope the authorities don't decide to renovate and modernise the place.
