Moreover, the clothing includes Lucknowi chikankari, Dry fruits and saffron from Kashmir, Handlooms, Wooden Handicrafts, South Indian snacks, North Indian food, and carpets.
“The society would be expecting a footfall of around 25 lakh people this year and have extended the pathways for their easy commute, as on an average 45,000 visitors enter the Exhibition Grounds every day for 46 days. Last year over 23 lakh people visited the Numaish,” said Vanam Satyender. He said “A number of people attending Numaish spend almost their entire day at the venue.
