Shillong, Jul 22 (PTI) Four more eateries in Shillong’s Fire Brigade area have been shut down for violations of food safety regulations, officials said Tuesday.
The action was taken following tests conducted by the Food Safety on Wheels mobile laboratory team, which found lapses in hygiene and non-compliance with licensing norms, they said.
“All of them were served rectification notices besides penalty, during which their shops are required to remain shut,” a senior FSSAI official told PTI.
This comes close on the heels of last week’s closure of the five outlets in the Khyndailad (Police Bazar) area over similar violations.
The crackdown is part of an ongoing drive to enforce food safety and hygiene standards in commercial establishments across the city, the official added. PTI JOP RG
