Khan, however, added there was no official confirmation of the measure from the concerned district magistrate.
Over 400 traders, workers and accountants at the market were screened for the virus on Friday.
Samples of fifty traders and labourers were collected at Azadpur Mandi on Saturday but there was no official information from the concerned district magistrate, said Khan.
