00:30Delhi Book Fair is going on in the Pragati Maidan of the city, and there are many stationary
00:54stalls as well.
00:55This time, we can see that there are only 6 stalls in which stationary is being sold.
01:01Hari, do you know what is the reason behind the stationary sales?
01:04Why do the stationary sellers and big brands like Apsara do not come to this fair?
01:09We have been holding this fair for at least 12 years.
01:12The previous fair was over after Covid-19.
01:18The stalls are over, people have run out of football.
01:23There is less interest, no new companies are coming.
01:26Earlier, new companies used to come, people used to come to see if there is anything new.
01:30There is nothing new to see, people are not coming.
01:32Earlier, our customers used to come, our own consumers used to come here.
01:35They used to call, when is it going on?
01:37So, they used to come to see something new.
01:39New items used to come to us, new companies used to come, they used to put up stalls outside.
01:42Earlier, there were about 60 stalls, now there are only 6 left.
01:44We have been coming here for the past 15 years and are putting up stalls regularly.
01:49The change is that earlier there used to be stalls in two halls, now there are no stalls in one hall.
01:56This means that the number of stalls is decreasing day by day.
02:02The main reason is that the cost is increasing.
02:05In today's date, the rent for 5 days has increased a lot.
02:11It is not all that cost effective now.
02:13Earlier it used to be for 9 days, now it was for 5 days.
02:16The cost used to recover in 9 days, now it is very difficult to recover the cost in 5 days.
02:20We have been coming to the Pragati Medan Stationary Fair for the past 24 years.
02:24Before Covid, there used to be a lot of participants.
02:28Book Fair and Stationary Fair used to take place in at least 5-6 halls.
02:33Now, only Hall No. 12 and 12A are left.
02:36Some companies must have faced challenges after Covid.
