Two Restaurants In Hyderabad's Attapur Area Raided - See What Was Found

At The Majlis Culture Cuisine, the officials found expired food items including Fruit Syrup, Kewra Water and Fruit Crush in the store room and kitchen. These were discarded on the spot. They also got rid of synthetic food colours that were "suspected of being used in the preparation of Non-veg Chinese items." Additionally, the task force noted that food articles stored inside the refrigerator lacked proper labels and coverings. The premises were "found open directly to the outside environment without proper insect-proof screen and doors were not closed fitted to avoid entry of pests," as per the officials. The Medical fitness certificates for the food handlers were unavailable. During the inspection, the temperature records for the refrigerator were not found either.

Task force team has conducted inspections in Attapur on 01.11.2024.
