Bangalore, 2/5: The BBMP has scotched rumours of a meat ban in Bengaluru on Tuesday when Eid-ul-Fitr falls along with Basava Jayanti.
The occurrence of two festivals on a single day led to widespread rumours that the sale of meat will not be allowed during the biggest Muslim festival.
A senior official in the civic body’s animal husbandry division, however, put the rumours to rest.
According to the official, Basava Jayanti is not among the nine days that the Urban Development Department has specified this year for the meat ban
