What Happened
FSSAI ordered CG Foods India (Wai Wai maker) to stop producing Veg Bhujia Namkeen after an inspection found alleged safety and hygiene violations, including unlicensed manufacturing, predated packaging and improper processing practices. The regulator also seized over 32,000 kg of stock and detained expired products.
Key Takeaways
The action underscores FSSAI’s tougher enforcement drive on food safety and manufacturing compliance. CG Foods has been directed to discontinue production until required approvals and corrective measures are in place, while further regulatory action could follow pending laboratory test results.
