Admitting reports on food adulterations and hospitalizations due to food poisoning, the Minister announced that requisite staff for Food Safety under Health Department will be recruited soon.

He also cited that there were incidents of ban on health clinics running without proper licenses.

Regarding the irregularities in the Mother-Kid scheme, the Health Minister disclosed that the accused staff of the concerned company was arrested under an FIR for misutilisation of the scheme, while the private limited company was also black-listed.
