VMC to hold more food licence camps

VADODARA: The Vadodara Municipal Corporation (VMC) will conduct a drive in the Hathikhana wholesale grain market to provide food licences. The civic body had on Friday and Saturday held similar camps at Navapura and Diwalipura to provide the licences.
The camp at Hathikhana will be held on Tuesday at The Baroda Grain Merchant Association's office. The site has been selected as even grain merchants and those selling food ingredients have to obtain food licences under the Food Safety and Standards Act. The food safety authority has fixed August 4 as the deadline before which those involved in food and related business have to obtain licences.
On August 4, the civic body will hold a camp again at the Navapura urban health center. Officials said that after August 4, those operating food businesses without licences will be prosecuted.
