KMC to bring out mobile food quality checking vehicle

Kolkata: The Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) will soon introduce a mobile food quality checking vehicle in the city to strengthen its drive for ensuring quality food. The mobile vehicle will travel to different parts of the city and will check the quality of food.
The necessary nod from the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has already reached the Health department of the civic body.
"It will not only give teeth to our drive in checking the quality of food with this mobile unit, but will also allow common people to check the quality of food through the infrastructure available in the mobile vehicle. However, the common people have to pay a fee for checking their food," Member, Mayor-in-Council (Health) Atin Ghosh said.
As per sources in the KMC, it was FSSAI who had given the proposal to the state government for using such a mobile vehicle for checking quality of food.
