The Food Safety Department continued its Statewide inspections of shops on Thursday to ensure food safety and allay people’s concerns in the wake of social media speculations about the sale of food products such as rice and sugar laced with plastic.
Over the week, 677 centres were inspected and 136 of them were served notices for renovation and other issues. A fine of Rs. 1.8 lakh was imposed. A total of 436 samples of rice and sugar have been taken for examination. The test results of the samples would be available in two weeks, an official statement said.
