TNN, Aug 5, 2010, 01.01am IST
LUCKNOW: Chief minister Mayawati on Wednesday directed the officials
to take stern action against those indulging in adulteration of food
articles and drugs. She also instructed to take deterrent action
against those indulging in the illegal sale of oxytocin.
Expressing her satisfaction over the ongoing drive in this regard, she
said that district magistrates found lax should be warned.
These directives were issued by the CM after a high-level meeting held
by her to review the working of food and drug administration
department at her official residence.
The CM directed the officials to ensure that only pure edible articles
and certified drugs are sold all over the state. She said that during
the drive, punitive action should be taken against officials found
neglecting their duties.
The CM directed the officials to ban the illegal sale of oxytocin
immediately as this drug is dangerous for human beings. She said a
special campaign should be launched to check the sale of such
prohibited drugs, and added that stern action should be taken against
those found involved in it.
She said criminal cases should be filed against those drug and food
inspectors who are found lax in performing their duties. On the
occasion, the CM was also apprised that 71 FIRs had been lodged and 63
guilty persons arrested during the drive in the past two months.
Besides, during the month of July, 146 FIRs were lodged against 190
persons for the sale of adulterated food articles and prohibited
colours. Of them, 90 persons were arrested and food articles worth Rs
1 crore were seized.
She was also apprised that in 121 FIRs lodged in cases related to the
drug and cosmetics, 102 adulterators had been arrested.
