All Ceylon Jamiyyathul Ulama (ACJU) says that it will remove the Halal logo from local products and will issue the Halal certificates free of charge only for exporters.



Addressing a press conference in Colombo with the participation of the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce and a group of Buddhist monks led by Ven. Bellanwila Wimalasara Thero, the ACJU said that although the Halal logo will not be displayed on Packs after end of the exhausting of stocks, companies can continue to obtain them voluntarily as the ACJU will continue to issue Halal certificate free of charge.



The Ceylon Chamber of Commerce also confirmed that all Sri Lankan producers will no longer carry the Halal logo on their products unless requested by the foreign consumers.

  1. Halal certificate is whole Muslims issue, its not only the issue of ACJU to decide halal certification is need or not to the Muslims in Sri Lanka. the decision alone taken with racist Buddhist organization is not accepted by the entire Muslims, its a decision of few members of the organization only. therefore decision of ACJU is invalid among the Muslims in Sri Lanka.
