Punish those poisoning food
It is sad that milk and meat are contaminated nowadays. We consume these two items daily. So if these products are contaminated, then it is sure to affect negatively on our health. The antibiotics found in great amount in milk and meat are hazardous for humans as they can lead to inflammation of the urinary system, skin, eye and lead to bone diseases. Not only this, such contaminated items if consumed can damage our brain cells and also cause problem in the respiratory system.
Hence, public health and consumers' rights are violated. Nobody has the right to act in a manner that will ultimately affect the health of the consumers. It is a crime and the perpetrators should receive severe punishment. The government is responsible for ensuring safe food. They should check food adulteration through heightened market monitoring. Public health must be the concern of every government.
