Food Minister Pralhad Joshi has written to Health Minister J P Nadda, urging him to take action to curb the sale of fake and adulterated paneer at eateries and markets across the country.
“I am writing to bring to your kind attention a growing concern regarding the rising cases of fake and adulterated paneer being sold in fast food joints, restaurants and other markets across the country. These incidents have led to public anxiety and complaints about the quality and safety of the food being consumed, especially amongst the consumers who rely on paneer as primary source of nutrition,” Joshi wrote in a letter to Nadda.
The letter further states, “As the issue of food safety standards are governed by the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, I request you to take necessary measures so that food safety standards are strictly adhered to across the country.”
