News Topical, Digital Desk : UP News: Varanasi is famous all over the world for its food. Especially people like to eat sweets, kachori, lassi and milk items here with great gusto. Meanwhile, the discussion of a bulldozer action in Varanasi is in the headlines. Actually, on the night of June 17, bulldozer action was taken on more than 30 shops in Lanka area by PWD for road widening. These shops also included the famous Pahelwan Lassi and Chachi's Kachori shop. Earlier, they were informed by giving a notice by the district administration. After the bulldozer action, there is a discussion among the people that now the famous Pahelwan Lassi and Chachi's Kachori of Banaras will not be available to eat.

After the demolition of the Pahelwan Lassi shop in Lanka, Varanasi, shopkeeper Brijesh Yadav, who was present there, while talking to ABP News said that this shop was here for almost 100 years. Whatever administrative action has been taken has been done as per the rules, no one can do anything in this. We had asked for time from the administration, they gave us two-four days and in this period we vacated the shop.

When he was asked about his future, he replied that half of his life is gone, half of his life is left. Only those who know will be able to work. We will manage the accounts by begging someone. We hope that everything gets fine soon. When asked how much pain he is facing after this action, he replied that the more we think about it, the more sad we will be, we believe that we should move forward. If there is any benefit in remembering and crying, then tell us.

Widening is necessary for development and relief from traffic jam

After the bulldozer action, discussions were rife among the people from social media to Lanka square of Banaras. On one hand, some people were remembering the taste and laughter of these old shops. On the other hand, one side also said that there is a huge traffic jam in this area and the widening campaign was necessary to get rid of this jam. On the other hand, if we talk about these lassi and kachori shops of Lanka, then big names associated with politics, film and art field have also been seen coming here and tasting these delicious food items. However, now these old shops that give the feeling of Banaras will not be seen by the people at that place.
