Senior BJP leader and Union Minister Giriraj Singh on November 23 wrote a letter to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar demanding ban on the production, storage, distribution and sale of food products labelled ‘halal’ in the State.
He made the demand on the lines of Uttar Pradesh government which has banned eatables such as dairy products, sugar, bakery items, peppermint oil, savouries and edible oil labelling halal.
