Restaurants to be graded, grades to be displayed at gates: CM Punjab
"Restaurants will be graded on basis of standard of food, security, cleanliness, quality of water"
LAHORE: (Web Desk) – Chief Minister Punjab has on Saturday announced that the restaurants all over Punjab will be graded on the basis of standard of food, security, cleanliness, quality of water etc. and the grades will be displayed at the gates of all the restaurants.
In a Facebook post on his official page, CM Punjab announced that the restaurants will be graded and the stickers of their grades will be displayed on their gates so that the people are able to select the restaurant in accordance with the quality of food and atmosphere that they provide.
The post said that the restaurants offering finest quality will be given grades A and B. A special monitoring unit at the CM Office will collaborate with the Punjab Food Authority will execute this idea.
Shahbaz Sharif’s official page said that the idea was given to the CM by a Facebook fan in a message on his page. This not only is a perfect idea but also a demonstration of the power of social media and the role it can play in the empowerment of the people. It clearly shows that even a common man can be effective through social media. And it also shows that it is an easy model for the governments to get public feedback on their governance and improve it accordingly.
The idea, if implemented, will not only allow the people to choose the restaurant according to their quality but will also augment an atmosphere of competition among the restaurants to offer best quality food and excellent atmosphere in order to keep their customers and win over the new ones.
