The Amdavad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has sealed Jaysiyaram Pendawala in the Paldi area after a customer complaint that pedas purchased from the shop developed fungus.
A woman residing in Paldi bought three kilograms of pedas from Jaisiyaram Pendawala on August 17th. According to her, when she opened the sweet box on Monday, she found the sweets covered in fungus. She subsequently filed a complaint with the health department of the AMC, prompting them to initiate an investigation into the matter.
The woman also recorded a video showing the fungus-covered pedas and shared it on social media. Having paid Rs 2,460 for the 3kg of pedas, she is now demanding action against the shopkeeper.
The AMC officials sealed the shop and posted a notice there without conducting any inspection.
