Substandard items

Published July 16, 2012

SUBSTANDARD copies of original products are being sold in Tharparkar like biscuits, juices, chocolates, cold drinks, etc. It is a serious health concern for the poor, the middle-class as well as the rich. I request the authorities concerned to make sure that no substandard items are sold in Tharparkur. Besides, some inspectors should be appointed to keep an eye on things.
