KANWAR YATRA } COURT REFUSES STAY ON QR CODES
The Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to stay the Uttar Pradesh government's direction to eateries along the Kanwar Yatra route to display QR codes with the ownership details of the food joints, underlining that “consumer is the king” and should be allowed to make an informed food choice.
A bench of justices MM Sundresh and N Kotiswar Singh directed hotel owners to display their licence and registration certificate, as required under the Food Safety and Standards Act (FSSA), 2006, and posted the matter after two weeks for compliance of its order.
“The sentiments of devotees should not be affected. At the same time, the livelihood of shop owners should not be affected too. The court has to strike a balance,” the bench remarked.
