Jagran correspondent, Muzaffarpur. Despite the government's ban, more than three thousand meat, chicken and fish shops are open on the roadside in urban areas. Meat, chicken and fish are being sold after being cut in the open.
All the meat, chicken and fish shops open in the city are running illegally without license. It is the responsibility of the Municipal Corporation to control them, but the Corporation neither has any list of shops open in the city nor any system to give them licenses.
Meat and chicken shopkeepers are draining blood into the drains. The remains are being thrown on the roadside. They are selling meat by hanging it on the roadside without curtain. Even cleanliness is not being taken care of. What's more, there is a complete ban on opening meat, chicken and fish shops near schools and religious places, but this is only on paper.
In reality, shops are running adjacent to the school wall. If you want to see an example then look at Marwari Middle School located on Sahu Road where a meat shop is open outside the school. Although there is already a ban on cutting and selling meat, chicken and fish in the open, but recently the government has completely banned it in all the urban areas of the state.
Not only this, a year ago Mayor Nirmala Devi had directed the corporation officials to investigate all the meat and chicken shops located in urban areas, take action against the shops running without license and close the shops running near schools and temples. Till now his instructions have not been followed.
Rules are not being followed
Rules have been made for meat and chicken shops, but they are not being followed. There is no one to see it, let alone follow it.
Meat and chicken shopkeepers have to follow these rules
