Are tips needed, like cigarette warnings?
The PIB has clarified that the news that a decision has been taken to display sugar and oil content on these food items, like the warnings on cigarette packs, is baseless. It has clarified that there is no intention to issue any instructions to the Centre to specify them. The Centre has only made suggestions to promote nutritious food with the aim of keeping people healthy. It has concluded that these suggestions are intended to inspire citizens to improve their lifestyle.
