Mumbai's Strand Book Stall to close down on February 27
Mumbai's Strand Book Stall will close down on February 27 on the death anniversary of its patron TN Shanbhag, who was honoured with Padma Shri in 2003. The 70-year-old bookstore opened as a two-shelf stall in Colaba in 1948 and was later shifted to PM Road. The stall, which became popular for its various discount offers, will close over digitisation.
