Ground Situation: Encouraging the public to report any incidents of food adulteration or the sale of expired meat, he urged them to contact 1223 to register complaints regarding such crimes within the region.

Numerous food establishments lack the necessary infrastructure and resources to uphold cleanliness, refrigeration, and hygiene standards, further elevating the risk of contamination. Street vendors and small-scale food enterprises frequently disregard fundamental hygiene protocols, leading to the widespread circulation of unhygienic food.

Consuming such food can result in various health ailments, spanning from food poisoning to severe illnesses caused by bacteria, viruses, or other harmful elements present in the food.
