TO strengthen India's regulatory framework on food labelling and advertising, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) on Wednesday convened a national stakeholder consultation to review the effectiveness of existing regulations, address implementation challenges, and explore ways to align with global standards to strengthen consumer protection.

The consultation, which involved various ministries, was conducted following a Supreme Court order last month, which gave the FSSAI three months to make recommendations on the proposed move to introduce mandatory warning labels on the front of packaged food items.

The meeting came a day after 29 public health organisations issued a consensus statement proposing implementation of the front-of-pack nutrition and warning labels on food products high in fats, sugar or salt.

The Many Shades Of Patriotism

OME years ago, I was briefly in the Netherlands. The taxi from the airport was a faded green Mercedes. The driver, in a suit and skull cap, was a burly man with a white, flowing beard. He turned out to be a Pakistani and hummed a Dilip Kumar-Vyjayanthimala song: \"Teri husn ki kya tareef karun.\" He said he was happy—happier than he had ever been in Pakistan.
