UP bans ‘halal-certified’ food products

The government of Uttar Pradesh has banned the production, storage, distribution, and sale of "halal-certified" food products in the state, citing concerns about the misuse of halal certification. The ban allows exceptions for cases where certification is required for export purposes. This decision comes after an FIR was filed against eight agencies for allegedly issuing forged and illegal halal certificates.
