“Bars and kitchens must be hygienic. If food routine samples do not meet the required standards, strict action will be taken” said Narhari Zirwal

Small vendors with registration certificates will be levied with a compounding penalty, while restaurants will face suspension of licence as action against mismanagement of food services.
