Street Foods Posing Health Risk
Most of the street food vendors do not maintain proper hygiene in the preparation of foods. It may cause bacterial contamination. Also the water they use to make those foods is not safe. But stop selling street foods cannot be the solution as thousands of venders are dependent on selling foods.
In that case the food authority can provide training to food venders so that they can ensure food safety from processing to serving. The government should ensure hygienic street food system through awareness programs along with enforcement of laws.
