UP Implements Ban on 'Halal-Certified' Food Products

The Uttar Pradesh government has banned the production, storage, distribution, and sale of "halal-certified" food products within the state, except for cases where certification is required for export. The ban was implemented due to concerns about the misuse of halal certification, following the filing of an FIR against eight agencies for issuing "forged" and "illegal" halal certificates. This is the first legal action of its kind in the country. The ban is based on the Food Safety and Standards Act 2006, aiming to regulate food product quality and standards.

UP Implements Immediate Ban on Sale of Halal-Certified Products

The Uttar Pradesh government has banned the production, storage, distribution, and sale of food products with the Halal certification, citing confusion regarding the quality of food items. However, products manufactured for export are exempt from the ban. The move comes after a police case was filed against several organizations for allegedly providing "forged" halal certificates to boost sales. The government stated that these actions exploit religious sentiments and violate public trust. The entities involved have denied the allegations and vowed to take legal action. Halal certification ensures that food is prepared in accordance with Islamic law and is free from prohibited components.
