Ban junk foods ad on television

Friends, Smriti Irani the I&B Minister is saying we have no proposal to ban ads of junk food on television. I am sure FSSAI will never make this proposal. Should we make a petition to do the same. I saw the gutka petition by local circle. May be both gutka companies ads and junk food ads ban should be called upon. Some expert on how to file this petition. more

Junk food are now a regular food habit with the young people. It is better to educate them with the adverse effects. By banning junk foods, we can not eradicate the problem. more  
I agree with Madhukar Sheth. What is Junk Food. In road side we see millions of people eat food for survival. Is it Junk food? I like to say that the major issue is Hygienic food. Very often people cook in an unhygienic condition, give in newspapers and unhygienic materials. Handle drinking water most unhygienic way. Can Smriti Irani do something for this. more  
The petition should have good contents to support the good cause. Govt. institution can't take any action just filing a complain. It must be attached with valid/authenticated documents. So opponent will not have any opportunity to contest. Otherwise it will take long time. more  
Which food we call a junk food? Some parameters should be defined. % of junk food should be displayed on it. more  
First define Junk Food & Fast Food, then Ban it. Otherwise there will be riots between rulers & ruled. Govt must know, we eat outside food atleast twice, everyday, in fast cities like Mumbai-Delhi. more
