FSSAI working with private parties

FSSAI has sought comments on how they should work with private companies - attached. This is quite puzzling. Why should they take sponsorship from private food companies for anything at all. Its ridiculous and then get rapped by CAG that they didnt spend their budget.

FSSAI should create one of these circles for industry also like we have for consumers to voice issues and let industry give feedback transparently..

Problem is industry has agenda, FSSAI because of whatever reason may have interest in supporting it. Thats when all of this becomes complicated. more

One very obvious issue if sponsorship is received there is bound to be an obligation on the part of FSSAI in terms of give and take! It would be straight conflict of interest. This should not be allowed . more  
Why only blame FSSAI, many other organization such as IRDAI, CCI and so on are all pro-entrepreneur. Apart from that consumer law is very weak which eliminates any work done by FSSAI, so we have to leave with it... more  
Taking sides with FOOD GIANTS is unethical more  
FSSAI should stick to its basic activities of issuing certificate and supervision. more  
it is natural FSSAI to take feedback from consumers and act.. but to cooperate with private companies , which FSSAI is supposed to regulate and monitor, is absurd more
