The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has been conducting surprise inspections across the country in recent times to rein in the problem of food adulteration.
“There was a food regulators summit held recently that was another step in this direction, meant to look for ways in which regulators can act to make the whole food safety ecosystem better,” the official said.
