No non-veg at eateries along Kanwar Yatra route in Muzaffarnagar; owners need to display paper work
Ahead of the Kanwar Yatra which begins July 30, the Food Safety Department has started a drive to check shops and eateries across the yatra route in Muzaffarnagar, saying this is done every year.
Hotels and roadside eateries along the Kanwar Yatra route in Muzaffarnagar are prohibited from cooking and serving non-vegetarian food, according to officials. They have been instructed to display the owners' paperwork, including licenses, for public viewing.
The Food Safety Department commenced a drive to inspect shops and eateries along the yatra route in Muzaffarnagar, emphasizing that this annual inspection is carried out every year. Assistant Commissioner Food, Archana Dheeran, informed PTI that hotel and dhaba owners have been reminded not to use onions and garlic in food preparation and service.
Every year, the regulations are adhered to by hotels and dhabas. Dheeran mentioned that six teams of officials have been established for monitoring food items. Unsanitary food will not be tolerated in these establishments, she stated. The department has taken measures to ensure food safety, requiring eateries to display owners' details, licenses, and QR codes from the Food Safety Connect app.
Additionally, a standard rate has been established for 21 essential items to prevent overcharging. Cooks are required to wear gloves, and the use of artificial colors in food is strictly prohibited. The District authorities have taken steps to enforce these standards, and any new hotel or dhaba that opens is informed about this requirement by the department.
