Kurukshetra - Following an order of the Punjab and
Haryana High Court, the state government has strictly
prohibited the sale, possession, consumption and purchase
of non-vegetarian food items in the holy towns of
Kurukshetra and Pehowa.

Deputy Commissioner Mandip Singh Brar has directed the
executive officer of the municipal council in Thanesar
and the secretary, municipal committee, Pehowa, to ensure
compliance with the order with immediate effect,
officials said.

“The sale, purchase and preparation of meat and other
non-vegetarian items must be not done within the
municipal limits of Kurukshetra and Pehowa. Neither
should any animal be slaughtered,” Brar said in a
statement.

The government's move is in compliance with an order by
the Punjab and Haryana High Court, directing officials
against the sale of non-vegetarian food items in these
towns.
