Jalandhar, April 3
To implement the Food Safety and Standards Act-2006 effectively, a team of the district Health Department conducted raids on six eating joints, including a newly opened restaurant-cum-bar, and collected samples.
Led by Dr Ashwani Sondhi, District Health Officer (DHO), the team paid a surprise visit to fast food joints in Model Town, Buta Mandi, Nakodar Road, near TV Tower, and a bakery in the city.
Dr Sondhi said the food quality in the restaurant was found to be good, while samples of raw and prepared food items were collected from other business establishments.
The samples were sent to a health laboratory in Chandigarh for test. He said the eating joint owners were not following the guidelines of the Act. Action would be taken against those found guilty.
Meanwhile, a team of the Health Department today raided a dairy located in Guru Nanak Pura and confiscated drugs being sold by its owner Davinder Singh in violation of the norms.
Dr Sondhi revealed that acting on a tip-off, a raid was conducted on Ghuman Daily and drugs (medicines) were recovered from its counter. He said the dairy owner was selling medicines without having any licence and qualification.
