Lucknow, 29 October (Hindustan Reporter). After Chinese lamps, now China lamps have arrived in the markets of localities and colonies of Lucknow which are getting ready to celebrate Diwali festival. The specialty of these lamps made of plastic is that they are lit with water.
China lamps brought for sale in the decorated Diwali market near Aliganj Sector Q intersection are being sold for Rs 50 to Rs 100 each. Like Aliganj, china lamps have also been launched in the markets of Telibagh, Daliganj, Gomti Nagar, Tedhi Pulia, Rajajipuram.
Munna, a businessman from the Chowk area, said that the china lamp has been manufactured just like the toys sold to children. This lamp is made of plastic. There is a handwatch battery inside it. Which reacts when it comes in contact with water. A light the size of a grain connected to a battery lights up.
He told that this is the first time in Lucknow, when China lamps have been launched in the market. If China Deepak will completely enter the hearts of people, then next time it will be launched in the market on a large scale. The shopkeepers in the markets have now fixed the rates of China lamps as per their own. Further, a rate for the lamp will also be decided.
Sandeep, a member of the Verma family, who likes China lamps, said that on Diwali, we have lit earthen lamps and cow lamps by using candles and indigenous wicks. This time we will also try lighting a china lamp. If these lamps keep burning with water for two to three nights, then next time we will buy them on a large scale. It is being bought and taken as per the choice of the children of the house.
