<P> While reviewing the poem The New York Times wrote in the April 1913 edition that; "In the Bazaars of Hyderabad" shines like an oriental gem . </P> <P> In this poem Naidu described the beauty of traditional Hyderabadi Bazaars . She presented the lively pictorial scenes of merchants, vendors, peddlers, goldsmiths, fruit - men and flower girls selling their goods, all of whom answer the questions of purchasers who buy their articles after a detailed bargaining . The poem also describes the musical instruments being used by the musicians and magicians described in the bazaar . </P> <P> Most of the Boards of Education in India and some universities of Europe include the poem in the English literature syllabus . Schools in India promote pupils to perform skits on the poem to make them understand the Bazaar's scenario in earlier days . </P> <P> Hyderabad is a city which is the meeting point of the Hindu and the Islamic cultures . Therefore, the wares sold by the people in the bazaars of Hyderabad (i.e. the merchants, vendors, maidens, peddlers, goldsmiths, fruit - men, musicians and flower - girls) cater to the need of every segment of the society: rich or poor, Hindu or Muslim . The poet provides a panoramic view of the colours, sounds, smell and sights of an Indian Bazaar . She has also used vibrant rhymes to describe the magnificence of the bazaars and also the products sold in the bazaars . </P>
