Odisha celebrates Chadakhai 2023, mutton being sold at Rs. 800 per kg

Bhubaneswar: The non-veg markets across Odisha have witnessed a huge rush of customers on the occasion of Chadkhai on Tuesday. People were seen crowding at various non-veg shops to buy Mutton, chicken, prawns, crabs, and different types of fish.

Chadkhai is the day for the foodies and Habishyalis to indulge themselves in some non-vegetarian delicacies. The non-vegetarian community in Odisha wait for the holy Kartik Month to get over to savoring some of their favourite non-vegetarian food, especially on Chadakhai day.

However, the falling of Chadakhai on a Tuesday seems to have somewhat dampened the fervour. The fish vendors have stated that they have seen less footfall in the market than expected as today is Tuesday.

The prices of the non-veg in the markets are as follows:

• Mutton is priced at 800 per Kilo.
• Chicken is being sold at 220 per Kilo.
• Rohi and Bhakur fish are sold at 200 per Kilo.
• Pomfret is selling at Rs 800 per Kilo.
• Hilsa (Ilisi) is priced at 1500 per Kilo.
• Shrimp/ prawn is priced at 400 per Kilo.
• Bhekti is priced at 500 per Kilo.
