    The market was officially renamed for Feroze Gandhi in the early 1970s to honor his role in post partition relief work. Most guided walks still start at the old clock tower and highlight how refugees reshaped the stalls after 1947. If you’re staying nearby, the Hotel Park Plaza Ludhiana is just under a kilometre away and offers easy access to the market.
