Itahari bans meat,fish

ITAHARI, March 3(RSS)- The Itahari municipality has imposed a total ban in the sale of meat and fish and its consumption in Itahari from today to fend off the contraction of an unknown disease that spread in Siligudi, India.

The decision to this effect was taken by the emergency meeting convened by the municipality Friday.

The municipality issued a public notice stating that one who flouts the order of the municipality will be subjected to a fine of Rs. 15,000.

It also appealed to all not to sell and consume meat and fish until a next notice is issued and launch a clean-up programme in their locality.

No one should use the unhygenic colours in the food item and chemical to ripen the fruits, the municipality said and cautioned that stern action would be initiated against those who ignore its order.

Intellectuals, businessmen and representatives from various Non-Governmental Organisations attended the meeting chaired by mayor of Itahari municipality Sarwadhwaj Sanwa.
