Kozhikode Corporation shutters three stalls at food street

Following public complaints and targeted inspections over the past two days, the Kozhikode Corporation ordered the immediate closure of three stalls at the beach’s private food street on Saturday, April 18.

The action follows growing criticism of the civilian-led initiative over deteriorating sanitary conditions. During an inspection on Thursday, April 16, health authorities reportedly seized a large quantity of rotten meat and stale vegetables at one of the outlets. “We have issued a stern warning to all vendors to strictly follow health protocols and maintain hygiene in the area,” said company secretary NK Hareesh.
