Tender to serve halal chicken biryani at Ksheerolsavam sparks controversy

|September 11, 2025
AN INVITATION of tender issued by the deputy director for dairy development in Ernakulam, soliciting bids from prospective suppliers to deliver halal chicken biryani for 400 farmers attending the district-level Ksheerolsavam has triggered a controversy.
The BJP took out a protest march to the district collectorate on Wednesday seeking departmental action against the deputy director for violation of service rules.
"The LDF government is promoting halal food products to favour caterers belonging to a particular community. This will damage the secular fabric of the state," said BJP spokesperson K V S Haridas who inaugurated the protest. BJP district president K S Shaiju said the party will approach the court seeking dismissal of the officer from service.
