Hata is like an open market where people come to sell and buy daily needs. Previously, there were not many shops, so people gather at a place, where they sell different types of goods. They gather once or twice every week.
You could find all types of daily needs from clothes to cosmetics and from vegetable to nonveg items. But, now-a-days, we have sufficient shops which open daily and we could buy our needed things as per our time. By getting lots of shops, we haven't forgotten the Hata culture.
