Yogi Adityanath led UP bans sale of ‘halal products’ with immediate effect | Oneindia News

The Uttar Pradesh government on Saturday banned the production, storage, distribution and sale of food products with halal certification with immediate effect while exempting products manufactured for export. In a statement, the state government alleged “malicious attempts” to discourage the use of products lacking a halal certificate not only seek “unfair financial benefits” but also form part of a “pre-planned strategy to sow class hatred, create divisions in society, and weaken the country” by “anti-national elements”. Strict legal measures will be taken against any individual or firm engaged in the production, storage, distribution, buying, and selling of halal-certified medicines, medical devices, and cosmetics within Uttar Pradesh, the statement said. #HalalProducts #BanOnHalalProducts #HalalProductsBan #UPGovernment #HalalMeat #YogiAdityanath #UPGovernmentHalalProductsBan #HalalCertifiedProducts ~PR.152~ED.194~
