Raids on hotels and food outlets is merely an excuse to
harass small-time businessmen, the Kerala Vyapari Vyavasayi Ekopana
Samithi (KVVES) said on Thursday. It was responding to a series of
State-wide raids conducted by food safety officials. In
a release, the traders’ body said these raids were unfair on the small
trader and amounted to effectively crippling his business. It
said food safety officials had no authority to order the closure of and
charge cases against food establishments, as it came only under the
power of the Revenue Divisional Officer.
