Crackdown on meat shops in Krishnagiri

The district administration conducted a crackdown on butcher shops selling meat under unhygienic conditions here in Krishnagiri. Following orders from Collector T.P. Rajesh, meat outlets that had kept meat in the open were removed.

The crackdown comes after a show cause notice was issued to meat outlets that were already found selling meat under unhygienic conditions.

However, the outlets that had not taken remedial measures as directed by the public health team were removed. Further, all meat outlets have been directed to sell meat by keeping them covered in a glass case.

The crackdown is slated to continue in all blocks, an administration release said.
