Despite introducing attractive discount and offers, traders say overall transactions ahead of the Teej festival is decreasing compared to past years. Jagdish Agrawal, who has been selling saris for the past three decades, said that demand for saris has been decreasing mainly because women these days prefer saris only during weddings and special occasions. “As most of the women prefers other casual dresses, thanks to changing lifestyle, demand for saris during Teej has gone down by around 50 percent compared to few years ago,” said Agrawal.
