Business women had given a good response to the fair and booked a large number of stalls to display their products, they said.

Responding to the demand of women entrepreneurs, the organising committee had expanded the stalls, they said and added bookings made so far for display of products included garments, jewellery, perfumes and home decoration items. Different events like magic show, puppet show, face painting and lucky draws would be part of the fair for family entertainment, they said.
