GUJRANWALA: Commissioner Shamail Ahmed Khawaja Thursday said protection of health of citizens was the top priority of the government and there should be no compromise on it.
Addressing all DCOs of the division through a video link conference, Shamail said unscrupulous elements involved in food adulteration are enemies of humanity and deserve no leniency and they should be punished according to law.
He ordered hotel/restaurant administrations that walls between dining halls and kitchens should be removed forthwith and if it was not possible then install CCTV cameras and display big size LCDs in halls so that customers may witness the food preparation process.
He directed the food authorities to launch a vigorous campaign against adulteration in the division according to the guidelines of the Punjab Chief Minister.
The Commissioner ordered an indiscriminate crackdown on those preparing and selling adulterated items for kids.
