“Many people love to take street food but most of the time they avoid it because they are a little sceptical about the hygiene of the food being prepared in these stalls. The state government has taken the initiative to certify the street food stalls that are safe. The vendors who have their temporary stalls installed in the Battala to Paradise road will get documented and they have to follow some prescriptions from the departments”, said Basu.
