Food inspectors to keep an eye on hoarders
Chandigarh, May 10
Due to a sudden spike in the number of Covid cases in the city, concerns have been raised about the availability of essential commodities to the common man at fair prices.
The UT Administration has directed all food and supplies inspectors as well as the Inspector, Legal Metrology, to maintain vigil in their respective areas and start drives to monitor issues related to overcharging, blackmarketing and hoarding. The Administration has also sought an action taken report at the earliest.
To facilitate the public and for providing any information or registration of any complaint, a consumer helpline, 1800-180-2079, has been activated. — TNS
