Srinagar, Aug 11: Over 12,000 kg of rotten meat has been seized and destroyed in Jammu and Kashmir since the start of an ongoing crackdown, Commissioner FDA J&K Smita Sethi said on Monday.
Exclusively speaking to Rising Kashmir, Sethi said, “The drive will continue across the J&K, and inspection teams are being deployed in every district as directed by the Chief Minister.”
She said in some cases meat was found stored in ordinary polythene, which is unhygienic. Samples have been collected from several locations for testing.
“Wherever gross negligence is found, strict action is being taken,” she added.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
