I read in the news yesterday that Pawan Agarwal ji who is CEO FSSAI and in this circle saying he will define junk foods before imposing taxes. I suggest we in this circle help him define junk food and may be fssai or local circles can help compile our inputs for his review. more
why tax on junk food?? Those who like eat let them eat it ..who are we to define what they should eat or not ....we can control our own family not others ...also it is not fair. I have changed my daughters habit bu simply taking her out to restaurant and asking her to order lassi instead of cold drinks - she loved when she had lassi ....for the past week no cold drinks have come into our house ....lets influence our own family and let other family eat what they like ...wondering does the government have a target to impose tax on various products and services more
