The Book Seller..

Avenue Road, the road most popular in students for books, yes the largest collection of all used technical,medical and curricular books at a price points affordable to many, the cost however works on the basis of availability, for the out of print books the cost may move northwards...

Ideally such supplychaon complements reuse of books and saves our trees complementing nature, such important unorganized sectors should be supported by the society as it offers only benefits to sellers,students and society!!

Long life, This word reflects the whole origin and significance of the Vat-Savitri puja. A ritual worshipping the 'Vat-Vriksha' the banyan tree.
