Vadodara: Non-veg food not allowed at food stalls if it's visible

Vadodara’s reported move comes close after the mayor of another city in Gujarat – Rajkot – passed instructions that stalls selling non-vegetarian food be limited to designated hawking zones and be kept away from main roads. 

Gujarat’s Vadodara is reportedly set to launch a drive to penalise street hawkers who sell non-vegetarian food ‘openly’. According to local reports, civic officials in Vadodara have been instructed to ensure that food stalls do not ‘visibly’ sell non-vegetarian food; such stalls and carts must ensure that the meat is suitably ‘covered’. The direction will also apply to carts selling food items made from eggs.
