QR codes to be installed in hotels, medical stores for public complaints, announces U T Khader


Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru

Bengaluru, Aug 17: QR codes will soon be installed in public places, including hotels and medical stores. By scanning the QR code, the public can submit complaints regarding food quality, service, or other issues, announced health minister U T Khader.

Speaking at a press conference in Bengaluru regarding the operations conducted by the food department, he said, "This system is being designed to bring public complaints to the attention of officials quickly. The government is stepping forward to implement such a system for the first time in Karnataka."

"The raids on hotels in Bengaluru will continue. In addition to this, the food served in private hostels, PGs, bus stands, wedding halls, railway canteens, and on flights will also be inspected. If poor-quality food is found being served in PGs, it will not be excused under any circumstances," he warned.

"Inspections have been carried out at over 60 3-star and 5-star hotels, eight godowns, and four enterprise restaurants within the Bengaluru city limits. The operations were conducted by forming 30 teams led by food safety and health safety officials. During the checks, several food items that were expired, mislabelled, and improperly stored were seized," he informed.

    Mr. Khader is a strict and honest minister. He should be given more powers. Phsrmacies are charging full MRP to custoomers. In other states, medicines are sold with discounted prices. People should fight for their rights.ng

    At this rate Karnataka is becoming a pioneer in making India a developed nation much before Modi’s 2047 deadline. Karnataka is not only becoming a Model State but a Very Smart State by Smart People ruling it. Thanks to congress.

    Also, one more important thing is public toilets. Where are they? Are they sufficient enough for the public? are they hygienic enough to use? I think QR codes on these may also help. + visibility required especially for the tourists.

    You are giving BJP sleepless nights. You are doing things in action with less talk but BJP does only thing is talk and talk big in front of the media with theatrics, costumes and filmy dialogues.

    Excellent move sir. Could we please have similar service at all government offices? The public might definitely have concerns about the government officials as well. Also, please come up with no card or cash in government offices by the officials just as in the US consulate. All payments must be made purely through the UPI mode.
