Sale of unsafe processed food

Per a report by scroll, India’s food safety regulator has twisted rules to allow sale of unsafe processed food.

This has been going on for years and therefore we see all kinds of sexual enhancement, neutraceuticals, products with ginseng and caffeiene combinations selling without any checks. Attached is the timeline on the issue more

Dear Ms. Goyal, Neither the `Time Line Chart" nor the contents in your message do not reflect the cause for worry. I would like to know your specific issue so that solution, if any, can be figured out.Any packaged branded food is a standardized item laying down the quality checks and the results in codified manner. I don't see why a food testing laboratory, when asked specifically by appropriate authority like factory inspector or a court of law, cannot and will not check the process and ingradients used. To see a devil in everything is not appropriate. Even if the devils are to exist, they are from the same society to which all of us belong. more  
Foods that contain STANDARDISED ingredients should not require specific approvals. Adulteration, as is commonly understood, i.e. using non-standard ingredients or inedible ingredients does not make for a proprietary food. more  
Food adultration is one of the biggest problem.Bribery has to stop and if caught,then both giver and receiver should be given severe punishment.Then only we can have some respite otherwise we have to live with it. more  
most rules are made keeping in view how officers and politicians can keep filling their coffers through graft. they are never made keeping the user in view. the Modi Govt too is being run by the same people. Pm Modi alone can't do anything. He too has to win the next election for which funds are required. more
