Implement slaughter rules
As per the Food Safety and Standards (Licensing and Registration of Food businesses) Regulation, 2011, animals must be slaughtered at licensed slaughterhouses, but this is violated across the country. The unhygienic condition of meat markets also give rise to malaria, typhoid, jaundice and other diseases among residents living in the area. The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Slaughter House) Rules, 2001 state that animals have to be stunned prior to slaughter, which is never practiced while slaughtering chickens.
