Dehradun: Days after the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) asked restaurants to put up food safety display boards on their premises by October 15, the food safety cell of Uttarakhand will organise a workshop on the need to display safety boards and general hygiene and sanitary requirements in restaurants.
Food Safety Display Boards mention food safety and hygiene practices to be followed. Ganesh Kandwal, designated officer (food safety), Dehradun district, said, “The food safety cell of Uttarakhand will conduct a hand-holding workshop with the businessmen concerned on the need and importance of displaying safety boards and general hygiene and sanitary requirements in restaurants. We had already sent a communication to them in May but it got a lukewarm response.”
The FSSAI guidelines were issued earlier this year but were not being complied with. Failing to follow the guidelines will result in the cancellation of licences, the FSSAI has warned.
