Shawarma outlets functioning in unhygienic conditions despite repeated health hazard warnings are turning out to be a major headache for food safety authorities.
Following Statewide raids conducted on Friday on 502 food outlets, the food safety authorities issued notices to 54 outlets to stop shawarma production and sales with immediate effect after these were found to be making shawarma without following any of the guidelines issued by the food safety authorities.
A total of 88 food outlets were served compounding notices and 61 others were served rectification notices.
