Complaints received of food poisoning at various functions
The Food Safety Commissioner has issued guidelines for catering services, in view of reports of food poisoning from food served at various functions and complaints from various quarters.
All catering services must have a Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) licence as per the Food Safety Act, 2006. Some catering services have been functioning just with an FSSAI registration. However, this will not be allowed, as a license is mandatory.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
