Meat Shops in Bengaluru Areas Closed Temporarily Ahead of PM Modi's Visit for Security
Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Bengaluru's Anekal taluk on November 13, local authorities ordered meat shops in Jigani Town Municipal Council and Kallubalu Gram Panchayat to close from November 12 morning until the afternoon of November 13. The closure, enforced under Section 163(1) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, was cited as a security measure to prevent potential disruptions by anti-social elements during the event at S-VYASA University. The ban has faced criticism from CPI(ML) Liberation, which called it an infringement on constitutional rights.
