Amid the Tabdeeli you will find unhygienic food stalls everywhere in Peshawar
Unhygienic causing severe health issues; tabdeeli is yet to make Peshawar dust free.
(Web Desk) – Unhygienic food is being sold in the city of flowers Peshawar. Though law through the district assembly to ensure cleanliness on the food stalls nearby roads has been formed, but in vain as no one is following it. Zakar ullah in his report from Peshawar explores how unhygienic food is being vended. The roads are wrecked, dirt is everywhere, but vendors are not much vexed about it, they are more concerned with selling their foods and earning profit rather providing people with hygienic and quality food.

Lack of implementation is fading the original purpose of forming laws. Change, as claimed pushily by PTI, is yet to be witnessed and it is hoped that in future rules will be implemented in true letter and spirit.
When talked to a local doctor Doctor Fayyaz, he said if eatables are unhygienic and not in accordance to the set standards, it will cause severe health issues. We are getting a huge number of complaints not only in children but also in elders. The prime reason behind this is the grubby food that the people are consuming each day.

We have issued directive to the deputy commissioner to force the vendors to use mirror in front of their shops. We want to make sure that eatables are germ-free in nature, said one of the members of district assembly.
The same dilemma: excessive rules and regulations but no implementation
Indeed, the situation seems to be same as has been prevailing in the provincial as well as federal governments or elsewhere in the country, abundance of rules and regulations but implementation is none. There is no one that could implement the formed rules. This fades the original purpose of forming laws. Change, as claimed pushily by PTI, is yet to be witnessed and it is hoped that in future rules will be implemented in true letter and spirit.
