CHANDIGARH: Chandigarh Beopar Mandal has decided to join the Bharat Udyog Vyapar Mandal in a nationwide agitation against the alleged unjust and impractical clauses in the Food Safety and Standards Act on Saturday. The city body of traders took the decision after a meeting with the executive body of Bharat Udyog Vyapar Mandal in New Delhi.
The meeting decided that traders from across the country, under the banner of Bhartiya Udyog Vyapar Mandal, will put up a demonstration before the office of food safety and standards authority, FDA Bhawan, on Kotla Road, New Delhi, on Saturday, to push their demand for simplification and rationalization of the Act. There after, an awareness campaign will be launched in New Delhi on August 9.
As many as 18 state delegations participated in the meeting, which discussed Food Safety and Standards Act and the issue of foreign direct investment (FDI) in retail sector.
The central body of traders believes that Centre's policies will shift the entire trade to multinational firms from crores of self-employed individual traders causing them irreparable losses.
Instead of providing loans and other facilities to the unorganized trade and industry sectors, the government is compelling traders to abide by its impractical policies and laws, said the members of Bharat Udyog Vyapar Mandal.
