Ahmedabad restricts non-veg food carts, Gujarat CM says nothing against food habits

Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel on Monday said the state government has no problem with different food habits of people, an assertion coming amidst the demand for removal of non-vegetarian food carts from roads in various cities.

However, Patel said, action can be taken against street food carts that are selling "unhygienic" food or if they are obstructing traffic on city roads.

In Ahmedabad, the municipal corporation ruled by the BJP has decided to remove non-veg food stalls from public roads and those operating 100 metres from schools and religious places.

The Chief Minister's clarification came in the backdrop of local BJP leaders demanding the removal of non-vegetarian food carts from roads in different cities of Gujarat.

The demand for the removal of non-veg food carts from public places has also come from cities like Vadodara, Rajkot and Dwarka.

“Some people eat vegetarian food, some people eat non-vegetarian food, the BJP government does not have any problem with it. There have been demands to remove particular 'larries' (carts) from the road.

"Our only concern is that the food sold from food carts should not be unhygienic,” Patel said, addressing a BJP programme at Bandhani village in Anand district.
