UP to mark dedicated streets for promotion of food culture in state
Dec 28, 2022

The Uttar Pradesh Government has decided to mark dedicated streets for promotion of food culture in cities across the state.
 
In this regard, the Chief Minister of UP has directed the UP Cultural Department to coordinate with the Development Authorities of various cities to devise an action plan for creating dedicated food-streets having delicacies from different states.
 
This was revealed by UP CM Yogi Adtiyanath while speaking at a function in Lucknow recently.
 
He shared his experience with respect to the recently-held Kashi-Tamil Sangamam at Varanasi, and said that people should be introduced to food culture of all the states in India.
 
According to reports, the food street shall follow the initiative 'Project Clean Street Food' launched by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI).
 
The Project Clean Street Food is one of the initiatives taken up by FSSAI under a 360 degree approach to Food Safety and Healthy Nutrition.
 
This would involve training and capacity building of the street food vendors and ensure proper regulatory oversight over them under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006.
 
The initiative aims at ensuring health, hygiene and safety standard of street food for all consumers, social and economic upliftment of street vendor community by helping them in improving quality of offerings thereby attracting more customers and enhancing the popularity of street food by transforming it into a global brand by itself.
 
Kankariya lake in Gujarat was the first clean street food hub declared by the FSSAI in 2018.
