Belagavi, Nov 20: Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly Jagadish Shettar on Monday sought an enquiry into reports that Indira canteens were serving food below the stipulated quantity specified by the government.

Participating in a discussion in the Assembly, Shettar said that while the quantity stipulated per plate of lunch was 300 grams of rice, 150 grams of sambar and 50 grams of chutney, what was served was much less leaving consumers dissatisfied.

"Media reports have exposed that those who have bagged contracts to prepare food at Indira canteen are cheating consumers by serving them less than the stipulated quantity. The government should immediately order a probe into the matter," he said.

Bengaluru, May 30: Health Minister B Sriramulu banned the consumption of chewing tobacco in public places on Saturday, which is marked as World Tobacco Day. The ban would include chewing paan masala and spitting in public places.

In June 2013, the state banned the manufacture, storage, sale, or distribution of gutka and paan masala containing tobacco or nicotine as ingredients to reduce the prevalence of tobacco use. On October 26, 2016, the state proscribed all kinds of chewing tobacco, containing tobacco or nicotine or both in accordance with the Supreme Court order.

Karnataka is the second state in India to ban e-cigarettes. The state also prohibited single cigarettes. Until September 2019, the state counselled 15,698 patients in tobacco cessation centres set up in private dental colleges.
