Read here, why the roadside hawking practice in India must be prevented

Using Roadside eatables can be extremely fatal for your health.

It is very pleasant to have a cup of hot tea before we start work, however before we do so, we need to check the conditions under which this is being prepared.

There have been concerns over the food safety practices followed by the hawkers selling food by roadside.  Studies have proved that these hawkers have scant regard for maintaining hygiene, do not follow safe food making practices and follow unethical labor norms.

In the advent of contagious diseases, it is advised not to visit roadside joints who do not take responsibilities of their products and their disposal as well.

 

Keeping in mind the below points, we urge all people to avoid buying from these stalls :

·       Unhygienic environment spoiling the area and aesthetics
·       Traffic/congestion for people by disturbing the footpath
·       Poor drainage facilities thus deteriorating the hygienic conditions
·       Poor waste disposal facilities adding up to pollution in the environment.
·       These hawkers do not follow the labour norms. 
·       Safety issues arising due to people stepping out of their home at odd hours. There were cases reported wherein employees were harassed by unruly people and the area becomes accident prone. 

Siting the increasing problem of safe water availability in India, you can think of the consequence on your health.
